@Pumi -- fair enough. However, you come here as a defender of @George. His people have called me -- let's see -- "shit for brains", cock, dick. There's also the usual lazy, trash, prostitute in @George's posts. Also, @bluesteele was going to "rip me ...

@Pumi -- I think you are a hypocrite. @George has blocked 29 people from posting on his thread. And you come here to complain about Aussi? Do you complain to @George about being a "dictator"? Of course not -- he's your "humble" master George. @Pumi ...

@skyway -- dude, @George is just playing with you. He keeps pretending to change his mind because he knows you'll keep posting that he changed his mind. We should have learned by now. We are lazy trash, lost souls, fools and prostitutes (of course, ...

@Nih98 -- that's okay, don't be too hard on yourself. I think you simply need to watch the last pod cast another 20 - 30 times and then you will understand the true psychology of how to not be one of the herd.

@Nih98 -- you definitely have a future in comedy...

@mixedbags -- nice. I do like the Ichimoku Kinko Hyo indicator. I found the source code and I will look into adding Kjen Sen Envelope as another envelope-type. Thanks for working out the settings.

@skyway -- I don't know if I would go that far. I mean, we've all failed at stuff and still get back on the horse. Of all the messages a young trader could possibly receive, @George's message is probably the last one they need to hear. I was having ...

@skyway -- it's okay. @moodybot mentions 4 people who "got it". I guess he thinks that after nearly 6 months and over 4000 posts that is a pretty good adoption (conversion) rate. Although the 4 he mentioned were already experienced traders. Everyone ...

@TooSlow -- I forgot to mention that @Nih98 recently posted an example where band levels remain the same across different time frames. Here's a link: url I'm not sure all the envelopes supported by SpikeHunter behave the same across all time ...

@Robot Trader -- thanks for the additional information. If I had known you had developed the EA I would stated things differently. I guess I used your post as an excuse to bring up the issue of settings and over curve-fitting, because that is ...

(binned per thread starter’s request) MM (Money Maker) Detective

@TooSlow -- well, yes and no. Band levels depend on price. And the price is the same across all time frames. Keep in mind SpikeHunter is not a finely tuned algorithm looking for a needle in a haystack. We are looking for an extreme price that blows ...

Oops -- looks like @George has changed his mind -- again. He shall return... There will be future pod casts and postings -- but only when he feels like it. So, yesterday he posts he is shutting down his thread -- except for people to give one more ...

@Robot Trader -- thanks. And it is a lot to digest. It's way over my head and much too complicated for me at this point. But from glancing at your screen shots and explanations it reveals an approach that I wish to avoid and I'm glad to have the ...

@lemercenaire -- okay, we're getting closer. Yes -- different bands get different grades. And how do we know the granularity of the band separation? And how do we know how to grade them? An indicator can not make discretionary decisions. The rules ...

@jdva -- excellent, thanks. I will compare this one with the version I found.

@lemercenaire -- sure, great idea. And that could certainly be incorporated. Currently we are working on identifying Entry signals. Once we've decided on how best to detect Entries then ranking them could be next. Another thing -- you mention a ...

@skyway -- as usual, a few comments... 1. Regarding ADR -- I used to use an "ADR Touch" algorithm based on @rosalieone's observations awhile back (it now seems like ages ago). But the problem is those ADR lines don't stabilize until around 0.5 - ...

@skyway -- I take it that you like mladen's tma bands? I do too. But they do repaint, but only subtly. Since we are hunting for price extremes, then the subtle repainting may not be an issue. And if the mladen tma bands dramatically cut down on the ...

@skyway -- another point. Looking at your chart above one might ask why not use two envelopes, a "relaxed" one and a "strict"? And then only accept spikes that poke through both. That might still be a viable solution, but one I wouldn't care for. ...

@skyway -- a few comments, see below... image 1. Time frame may make a difference. My preferred time frame is M15 because it fits within the ADR. As to why that would make a difference, I don't know. At this point it just seems an intuitive ...
