Exit and adding position — Dear Jiva, Due to my schedule, I have not gotten a chance to trade the system, except following the thread when it was started last month or so. So without putting in "chart time" yet on my part, my questions below ...

Open/close cross

Dear Jiva, Thanks for sharing the progress of the trades. Here are some simple enquiries: There are 3 down arrows on the EU chart. Would you take the first two? Do you have an EA to automate the 3-portion trade management, or you place price alerts ...

Open/close cross

Interesting... this is similar to the ColorMA thread. Have you decided to use this setup for daily as oppose to the one described on the ColorMA thread? Thanks Jiva for providing so many ideas!

5min open/close ma cross

Dear spiderforex, I have been following Steve Spider and this thread. Having read more carefully what you wrote in the first post, I discovered that you suggested raising the number of lots linearly, instead of doubling them as in a "normal" ...

Dear Jiva, Is the "signal" you mentioned the "cross-over" or the color change of 21LSMA? However, 21LSMA has not really turned to green yet, if I'm right? Thanks.

ColorMa

Cross-over and 21LSMA — Dear Jiva, If the cross-over to short happens before the 21lsma turns red, I would wait until the 21lsma turns red. When the 21lsma finally turns red, do I enter at this point, or in your opinion, it is better to wait ...

Dear Trumpcard, Yes, it takes into account all 3 previous closes. But, please note, that there is still an issue with the inside bar check in the source code: //No cancellation if the previous bar was an IB if (High[1] <= High[2] && Low[1] <= Low[2] ...

Feedback for WasCloseLow() function — Another feedback. The statement: if (Low[cc] < Low[1] ) return(false); in the WasCloseLow() function should be: if (Close[cc]<Close[1]) return(false); Preferably, to be more inline with Dan's rule, it ...

Inside Bar definition — Dear Trumpcard, The rules said that if the 1st bar after the trigger bar is an inside bar, we do not cancel the pending. But I'm unsure how the inside bar definition is applied from the 2nd bar onwards. For example, if ...

Feedback on EA code — Dear Steve, First of all, thanks so much for your effort and dedication in coding the EAs and sharing with us. I'm pretty interested to try Trumpcard out, and so I took a quick look at the codes. Here are some feedback ...

Dear Steve, Thanks for removing the posting restrictions, really appreciate it. Though I do not understand what you meant by "the high is either higher etc, or it isn't", but I see that Aurora actually treats a candle having equal high with a ...

Is it a bug? — Dear Steve, There could be a problem with the following code in the IsTradingAllowed() function of Aurora: //Must be higher hi-lo in a rising market, and lower hi-lo in a falling market if (trend == up) { if (High[1] < High[2]) ...

Dear josch, My results aren't conclusive yet as I've run for only 3 days (8 to 1800 CET) and am still making custom changes to the code that Steve so kindly provided, based on some observations I made for the 3 days. Some of the reasons why I'm ...

Dear Josch, Do you use Aurora OOTB? There are some differences in the OOTB setting with the original method, for example: TP is 175% of SL. Original almost 1:1. Trades for 24 hours. Original is from 800 to 1800 CET. Nevertheless, it is interesting ...
