Yeah, I started trading actively again about the same time as you. The break did me good I think. This move up seems weak to me, so I couldn't resist a small short here. But it will probably hit my stop at 0.7385 soon. If so, I'll wait until after ...

Discovering An Edge

Hey Vlad, it's been a while! Hope you are well. AUD.USD looks like it's itching for a drop. Short at 0.7370.

Discovering An Edge

Couldn't agree more Got a bit of wine inside me now so can't resist one last comment. This time I'm playing devil's advocate because I've been a bit too hard on that little lonely TZ sitting 70 pips away from where you entered, Bill. ...

At last, here is version 2 of my BADL indicator for NinjaTrader. After a lot of fiddling and testing it seems to be working well in a variety of conditions (historical, live, disconnected, connected, main only, main and sub), and the two data series ...

Better ADL

Sorry, I just want to clarify the stop level because it might be misleading. The example stop I used was 140 pips from the target TZ, so actually 70 pips from the entry price. This gives a risk:reward of 1:1. And here is an extract from the stats, ...

Very nice results C. Well done

Yes, I totally agree that stops are dynamic. It's just that you have to specify a stop level in order to obtain the probability of which one will be hit first (according to history, that is). I chose 140 pips (double the retrace) just as an example. ...

Yes, minimum 1 pip k. So > 1 pip included too. And yes, never trade TZs alone is good advice. Always combine with other TA. About the rare event of the zone not being recurrent after 24h or more, the point I was making was that it's not a rare event ...

AUD.USD was taking too long to move so I came out +10, just before it dropped 90 more! And I missed my pending re-entry of USD.JPY at 112.50 by a few pips too But re-entered USD.JPY long on the break of 113, as promised, and also ...

Hey Bill, thanks. Hope you've been well. Looks like you're trading great at the moment! Just a friendly warning about the M1 TZ trade you mentioned above. h-left=10 and h-right=1440, with k-min=1, does indeed produce a fantastic hit rate of > 98%. ...

Thanks. I took profit at 113 though, just in case. Will long again if it reaches 112.50, and/or breaks 113 decisively. Gold was a good run but only low leverage ETFs because I wasn't trading actively until recently. But even with ETFs it was well ...

Hey Jay, congratulations on your yen trades. I missed those unfortunately, but have been doing very well with gold since last November Just want to say that I'm long USD.JPY now from 111.70. Not totally convinced that the bottom is in but the ...

Thank you very much. Your answers are very interesting! I've heard it usually takes about 200 attempts to yield just one consistently profitable trading robot, so hats off to you for all the hard work. Plenty more questions but I'll hang fire for ...

Trading the "Dirty Dozen"

I've been battling with BADL Version 2 for the last few days. It's been there or thereabouts for a while, but not quite perfect. The reason is that it's very difficult to perfectly synchronise multi-timeframe bars in Ninja both in historical and ...

Better ADL

Hey Magnum, how's it going? Been meaning to ask you for a while about your trading robots mentioned in other threads. I too use IB and TWS for live trading, plus NinjaTrader for historical analysis and backtesting if I have to code anything. I've ...

Trading the "Dirty Dozen"

Absolutely. You too C, have a good one!

Not as good as this band though. Still the best live band I've ever seen: video (I hope that embeds automatically, never done it before!)

Diversified Trend Trading Approach

Great band, Jethro Tull. I managed to see them live a couple of times. Very good

Diversified Trend Trading Approach

Great work here C. The quest for an automated system that performs decently in all market conditions and with minimum drawdown is a noble one. Well done and good luck mate
