Good point!! and Yes, is is a "repainter"... but from what I have seen, not significant for how I use it... Pretty much, I just want to know the past 30 days, how far apart, on the hourly, plus or minus 10pips.. Do they get 50, 100, 150p apart? How ...

Maybe one thing... I think on IBFX your mini account symbol is GBPUSDm.... would that make a difference?? I use FXDD, and the symbols are just GBPUSD format, and the indicator works fine.... As to how much "un-correlation" to trade... it's dependent ...

Let' not lose sight of what we are trying to do with ANY system..... Put the odds in our favor. That is it. Of course there is no guarantee the the correlation will ever return to zero.. of course! But MOST of the time it does. In fact, a very high ...

OK... here you go.... but the Delta on this one is only 70p, I might wait for more, but you get the idea... I might have an EA available at some point.. in develpment now with my programmer... not as easy as it looks!! mk

..... and to close the loop,.... within the following day, the other made it back to breakeven... The first one back went on to a +10p win, if one would have stayed in long enough... So, the moral of the first big losers in a long time, was that ...

Back to post 212... still a bit confused... You wait for the long trade to "run it's course..." before looking for a Short... I didn't explain myself well... Doesn't the valid short signal "end the course" for the Long trade? ... so don't the ...

Buuuutttt..... wouldn't a valid short signal be the end of the long trade? In other words, wouldn't the two indicators turning against the trade be the signal to exit all positions long, and enter short? Is it because the one indicator is just ...

Just to follow up on the two big loser trades that I left running.... The USDCHF made it back to +9 (not quite TP, but I would have set it to -10 or breakeven, and been happy!!).. So, had I left this running, I would have missed the win today, but ...

Quick question for Ron, the EA Meister.... Bull101 has stated that he will take a trade if one appears within the first 10 minutes of the new day's bar. Does your EA do that? or will it take a trade anytime during the day a valid signal appears? ...

I use FXDD, and two trades triggered, same result... although I am letting mine run on demo, just for yucks... (at -141 and -83 now....) And yes, that was the idea to adjust the hedging entries once the first trade was hit. In this case, both the ...

Good discussion! Here's an idea.... Since we are setting our entries for the EU and UJ at 50p ea, for one to enter the other would be ~100p away from it's entry, assuming perfect correlation... So, if our first trade goes against us, that trade has ...

Got it.... and makes sense.... but you bring up a point that I have been wanting to discuss.... Do you all just let any un-triggered triangles run through to the next day, like today's EUJ? I have been cancelling the un-triggered triangle after ...

PS!!! I just applied the EAs to the charts, just now, and both set up the pending trades immediately... (time setting is 430, which is 130GMT for FXDD, which is GMT+3....) They should wait for the 130 bar open, right? At any rate, I will leave them ...

Hi Waltini, and great work on the EA! Nice addition suggested by TimeFreedom, although it isn't really a bug... Waltini was very clear about that issue in releasing his EA... Also, I think the GBP triangle uses 50p for the GU and the USDCHF, but 75 ...

Yes, the risk is in the cross-pair... as noted before a couple of times, if (when) our main pairs both hit, in sort of a semi-hedge, we have, in essence the cross pair.. Seems to me, instead of just cancelling the cross pair secondary hedge, we ...

Nice ideas, both!! NowandLater, I'll be curious to your finding on the chf based triangle.. might be a little more stable... but then again, with over 6 months of winning the jpy based triangle, hard to beat!! Might be nice to have two triangles to ...

Hi Alex, I have been using it for a week or so on a live micro account... has worked just fine, with a few "hiccups".... 1. Sometimes, it just does not "energize" after being turned off. So, I have remove the EA and re-apply it, then it goes to ...
