AHG - Profitable Strategy for Struggling Traders

Just in case anyone is interested, guys on other websites are talking about parabolic curves at the moment !
How do you rate them in your strategy ?
 
AHG primarily uses HHs and HLs for trend identification, not parabolic curves. And AHG does not stop and reverse on the intersection of the curve and price, which I think is one of the things you do with them, right? AHG doesn't trade against the prevailing trend.

Hi Anek,

Could you post a chart example of what you mean by "close + 1 tick at the extreme of the closing bar is even safer"?


Also, when you are saying that your trades doesn't take much heat, does that mean that almost 90% of your trades move immediately (like seconds after entry) in your favor?

thanks

J,

Notice how the double top had a close below the middle swing but not tick low after that.

Now, notice how the Head and Shoulders had the close below neckline and then a tick on the next bar below the closing breakdown bar.

That tick increases accuracy.

That one tip I owe to Suri Duddella.

Back to coding....

Sorry missed the second part of your question.

The good ones certainly take minimal heat. I would say 90% of the good ones sounds about right.

Not to be confused with 90% accuracy of course.

I rarely take much heat because by the time that heat is heating up I'm already out due to a small stop.

Do i have many small losses ? Of course I do.

Why does Anek use "silly" indicators ?

I've been asked many times this question. Criticized by many even as they enjoy reading the journal.

The simple answer is, I've been trying for quite a while now to trap price action in some sort of algorithmic way to mimic a fraction of my hand trading in automation so I can increase my P/L potential. Greed is good, right?

Obviously a vast majority of the charts I post on my journal are indicator free and at this point my hand trading blows away any automation project.

However, this has been an on going project for quite some time and it is still a work in progress. Not even in the alpha stages.

Here is a taste of the progress on the ER2 with 6 months past data, can't go any further on TS using tick charts, unless I buy extra data.

Commission and slippage is accounted for in the results. Every trade has three exit points so the car size is set as it's minimum, 3. I have not implemented averaging up into it yet.

Still not pleased but definitely beating the system and yes the algorithm behind this is nothing but AHG.

....and the curve.

Posting this as illustration of my automation progress.

Not selling, not sharing just answering why I've been toying with personal indicators all this time.

No need to justify yourself to anyone.

Thank you for your generosity in sharing your knowledge and experience. Your contribution is unmeasurable and words can not express the appreciation of your kindness.

I wish you success with your project and in all your endeavors.
 
Hi Anek,

I just signed up on this site and stumbled on your journal. I am a new trader and am looking foward to going through it. I have been trading YM and cosidering the ER2. What indicators and tick charts would you recomend. Thanks for your contribution to helping out other traders. I will pay it forward also when I can.:)
 
C,

Price, Horizontal Lines, Trendlines, Zig Zag Lines, the custom Paintbars I recommend, that should do it.

Read the journal, it's all in here.
