I just got up and here's what I see. Will they run the stops one more time today? Buy now? 50 pip stop or put it below support? Usually if the E/U goes against you 50 pips, you're wrong. Or, limit order near or below support? I think I'll try both, ...

Wow! — Everyone, you are in for a treat! Rangebound will be sharing with us his technique that takes vHands to a whole new level - multiple time frames. I had no idea it could be done. Rangebound, I don't know how you figured all that stuff ...

2be, great post, that certainly fits in with the topic. You can see on my last chart post what happened to those that were "thinking like the crowd". Who among us hasn't put a stop 20 pips beyond support or resistance, lost our trade, only to watch ...

It may depend on how or where it is used (the context). Rally usually means a short term run up in price; but it is also sometimes used to mean a short term run down. Bear is down, bull is up, rally is a short term price movement.

Really basic question about a Script

Oops, wait a minute. I looked at the code and it goes back the whole chart when it's run. You don't want to do that every tick! There are pivot point indicators that will do the calculation and draw the lines for you.

Really basic question about a Script

I'm sure it could be made into an indicator and would then write on every tick.

Really basic question about a Script

double Thousands = AccountBalance() / 1000; double RoundDown = MathFloor(Thousands); double Lots = RoundDown / 10; So if you had $2939.66 in the account, the first statement would give you 2.93966; The next line would give you 2; last line would ...

Line 92, the "FileOpen" command. If you put your cursor on FileOpen and hit F1 it will explain the command. The first thing it wants to see is a string that has the name of the file being created. The coder tied all this together into one string ...

Really basic question about a Script

I was thinking the same thing yesterday, and have thought it before during losing streaks. Not sure how to "fool" myself though into doing the opposite of what I think. I'm probably nearer to 100% now. But I'm making 1 - 2 trades per week. Looking ...

You could choose the open prices model, try that, I think it will do what you want. But you won't have a chance to do anything during the day, it should click off one day at a time.

At the left of the chart you have a bounce off support, then another bounce occurs, then on the third, it breaks down, takes out the stops, and up she goes. Then it breaks through resistance, pulls back, goes up, pulls back again (resistance became ...

Welcome, Daniel. I've been around here for awhile now. In all that time I've seen posts by two people that say they make money with an EA, both said they keep an eye on it -- so they still add their discretion to the mix. I've programmed many, none ...

“Professional” Expert Advisors? Thoughts. Reviews. Ideas?

It is for me. I've been having this sort of problem on backtest since day 1. Sometimes it only goes back a month. Sometimes it goes back a year like I asked, but trading stops in Feb 2008. I like smjones' idea, "backtest is a waste of time. Only ...

Thanks, Soultrader! That's what I'm talkin' about. How many of us have entered long on that pop above the range, and placed our stops below the range (everyone raise our hands, that's exactly what the books and courses teach us to do) only to get ...
