Out of all the systems that are sold for tradestation (mesa, asc trend, larry williams, dennis meyers...) which ones are valuable, and is there any web site that lists them by market and rates them?

The Vix is so low, that it seems to say that the stock indexes are about to fall.

Thanks, programtrader, I will look for that system.

The reason I asked that is that I use my own system to trade futures, and I realized that the levels and projections that a certain Elliott analyst hands out every day really help my trading, but I can't find a way to, first of all, generate those daily levels myself, and, second, integrate...

I ask because many people I know are convinced of its validity, but I haven't seen any systems backtested on it and with what results.

Fantastic, this one works now. Thank you all. (I will also look from now on, at the online manual, since the one I have only goes up to 1999 examples). I am using "date" to add a walk forward optimization feature in my signal.

Yes, of course, thank you for replying, but this answer doesn't work. That is why I thought it could have been something different.

If "990101" is "January 1, 1999", please how do I say "January 1, 2003"?

I have to tell you the truth, you are right - the rsi is as a good an indicator as any, which means it's not very good, that is why I left it for another indicator, which is better than average. Now I am using the best indicator I found so far - price-volume on a weekly basis, and it works very...

Thank you very much, I will go where you said to ask the same question, and I will try your advice.

I have been working on an intraday (5 minute timeframe) system on futures, which does well on the last two years, based on moving average crossovers, time limits, and a weekly price-volume trend filter that allows the system to only accept long/short signals on a given week. Now a few people...

The Fib-30 future is the future on the Italian index called Mib-30. We also have the mini-fib, which requires a margin a little higher than the E-mini Nasdaq. But this system works as well on the E-mini Nasdaq.

I think I have it solved, thank you. As you suggested, I created a variable to simplify things, but I didn't need to use "Else", as somehow it understood what I wanted to do. Inputs: ... Variables: ...Trend(0); If (c of Data2 > c[1] of Data2 and v of Data2 > v[1] of Data2) Then...

I have implemented a trend filter with "data2" being the weekly timeframe on the same future. It says "If we have had, on the previous week, rising/falling prices with rising volumes then only allow long/short trades for this coming week". However, it also implies that if we had falling...

I did optimize all the settings, but even with that, I can tell that my idea either isn't implemented the right way, or it's not a good idea. Now I am back to the orginal system, very simple one, without any filters, but at least whatever settings it has, make perfect sense to me, and work. 3...

Oh yes, thank you. It seems to be the mama of rsi, right? The average of the average. I have tried that as well, but just like the mama for regular mas, somehow on my system regular mas work better over time.

Exactly, I stay in a trade even overnight, because my signal is indeed triggered on the 5 minute chart, but at the same time it has a trailing stop that gets activated only after a given profit, so this avoids getting in and out of trades all the time.

I have developed a system that trades on 5-minute intraday charts (emini nasdaq and Italian futures) about 10 times a month, and it can still get better, by using some sort of trend filter on data2 daily closes, but I can't get the RSI filter to work as well as it could. This is the the...

Very good, thank you. I also used If CurrentBar > 1 AND DayOfWeekFix(Date) = WhichDay And... To find out, by optimizing, "WhichDay" of the week was the best, and for my system it's wednesdays. The worst day is indeed monday, but not bad enough to take it out. Wednesday instead...

I have already learned that time zones are very effective and I want to see if this concept can be applied to days of the week as well. How do you tell a system in tradestation "don't trade on this day of the week"? Or even better, how do you say "don't trade on such day of the week at such hour"?
