Thanks Spud, At my broker for 1$ (I use EURO) a PIP I need about 14.000 Units. which gives a leverage of about 3:1. (which is actually nearly 18 % of the possible leverage) Which means with a 5000 $ account you would aim at about 0.4 % profit a day ...

Spud's Predictive MTF Stochastics

Thanks Spud, 1. I suppose this is a new idea of yours and not yet thoroughly tested in live trading, or do I miss something ? Will you only use the combination and the new filter or also the Rope in your personal live trades you plan to show forth? ...

Spud's Predictive MTF Stochastics

CindyXXXX take a other careful look at the formula I posted - this is how I do it and it matches perfectly OANDA Stochastics: url For a full Stoachistic you still need to calculate: Then: %K(full) = m1-period simple moving average of the %K(fast) ...

Spud's Predictive MTF Stochastics

hi CindyXXXX, I think I know what you might miss: Your calculation is the K% of the FAST Stoch (14,1,1) try that. MJ

Spud's Predictive MTF Stochastics

hi sarah2002, I was also thinking a little bit about that. As had to program all my indicators (not so many at the moment) myself I also did the Stochastic one. Formula First the %K(fast) line is calculated, as with the Fast Stochastics. (This line ...

hi Trendylines! — hi Trendylines! on the top you can click the attached files to download: see the pic below. at my black dot ;-) CindyXXXX was so kind and did many pdf - you also find some in Spud's other threads. hope this helps. MJ

Thought about Filter. — Thought about Filter! I think it is a good idea to find some kind of reliable filter. But I would also like to draw attention that to many filtering will have also some other effect. What I saw is - that sometimes a ...

Spud's Predictive MTF Stochastics

Have a nice weekend! — The last 2 days I did a bit manual trading (next to programming a new more advanced Bot version) on a small live account. I have to say I only used loosely the mechanical rules and properly had a bit of luck too. so nice ...

Glad I took the Profit and ran! — Glad I took the Profit and ran! properly exactly what Spud means: predict the short retracement - or was it luck image Happy Trading

AnyOne Took The Short — Well I did manually on my live account. I did not have the guts to stay in for an escalator or so - closed manually on the first negative sign. Still a nice profit in %. MJ

Spud's Predictive MTF Stochastics

99% safe trades (one each day) is not realistic — hi sarah2002, it's ok to have high dreams and wishes as all of us. BUT ... 99% safe trades ( one Entry a day 10 pip TP - assuming 250 trading days a year) * In 2 years you would have had: 500 ...

Spud's Predictive MTF Stochastics

Well, I got so caught up with looking through Spud's studies with MetaTrade4 (was a good move to install it - much easier to understand what Spud is saying)that I just forgot my bots. Some crashed (because i do not restart after a missed price feed) ...

Spud's Predictive MTF Stochastics

MT4 question — as I'm new the MetaTrade4 I have a question: I see in Spud's sonicpmtf template indicator list that he uses 'Stochastic Oscillator' and then 4 times just 'Stochastic' 1. anyone knows what is the difference if any? 'Stochastic ...

Spud's Predictive MTF Stochastics

I suppose we are both right - depending how one sees it. If one splits the trade size as I actually do - you make a good point. But than - one would have to average all your trades. That's actually why I personally do not like the way many traders ...

Spud's Predictive MTF Stochastics

Thanks Rascasse, I did not really think about wine. Normally I use just Linux only apps. Well I keep for the time being the the Windows in a virtual image as I'm not planning to switch to MT4 for my Live broker. (at least at the moment but who knows ...

Spud's Predictive MTF Stochastics

Well, you want believe that - but I installed today a Windows system in a Virtual Machine just to be able to use Meta Trade 4 -- to follow Spud's explanations better. And to use all this nice indicators people program here ;-) I tested today to ...

Spud's Predictive MTF Stochastics

Suggestion!! — hi Spud, After all what is said so far - and in the light of the quote above: I would find it most useful: when you just would take key screen shots of your trades (not all rules we made up to simplify it but your real trades ...

Spud's Predictive MTF Stochastics

Thanks - one thing more to the rope: When you live trade do you use also just closed Candles (also for the discernment of the Rope) or do you use the Rope 'kind an the current live Candle ?

Spud's Predictive MTF Stochastics

you are doing a good job - just the student is slow ;-) anyway with using the rope - do you still thing the M1 Filter improves the Entry or would you say it is obsolescent when using the Rope yourself.

Spud's Predictive MTF Stochastics

Very nicely put together Spud. Thanks. Do you think in such an setup as your defined Short Entry - the Rope would make any improvement and in which way ? Personally do you still use the Rope or Sonic indicator or did you get rid of it in the mean ...
