NorthTrader commented Jun 26, 2015This should put a bit of downward pressure on the euro next week, assuming nothing changes after the meeting on Saturday. And those gamblers who decided to hold their shorts over the weekend (ahem... me included) can sleep a bit easier now.

NorthTrader replied Jun 16, 2015Thanks Sis. Yes, this clears it up a bit. By the way, is this the system you were having so much success with last month on lower TFs? And the main drawback is too much screen time waiting for the rare opportunities? How about if we code an indi to ...

NorthTrader replied Jun 14, 2015Hey Sis., thanks for posting this but I'm afraid you've lost me a bit here (Monday morning and all that). Are you talking about an option strategy? OTM = Out of the money, right? And the second line ("Probability of resolving 2nd PTZ AFTER 1st gets ...

NorthTrader replied Jun 14, 2015Great work Sis.
I was thinking of doing some analysis on candle sequencing myself, so you've saved me a lot of work. Thanks for posting it. And yes, the one consistent thing about the market is that it's efficient. I wonder how we can ...Higher Edge within a Single Candlestick

NorthTrader replied Jun 13, 2015Hey Jim, O-hisashi buri. You've been very quiet recently! Thanks for your kind words. By the way, the system is very simple. You just trade towards the first opposite PTZ (the "Target TZ") that appears after a PTZ/CTZ (the "Base TZ"), within a range ...

NorthTrader replied Jun 9, 2015Thanks rrrem. We initially found that H4 (M240) was the best timeframe for the First Opposite system, and later tests I ran seemed to confirm this. I haven't posted the latest results for other timeframes yet, but will do soon. It may be ...

NorthTrader replied Jun 9, 2015It's just one EMA. If by "cross" you mean when price crosses it, then yes. But price doesn't have to touch it if momentum is strong. And I repeat, this may not be the best way. It was just a fairly simple technique that I could code into the ...

NorthTrader replied Jun 8, 2015Hey jmn, thanks for dropping by. One of the main points that this research has highlighted is that you can't trade towards a first opposite PTZ mechanically, that is by entering and placing stops at the same percentage levels between Target TZ and ...

NorthTrader replied Jun 8, 2015Unless... we're talking about ranges of contiguous transient prices? In that case, a higher-value tick chart might be a appropriate. For instance, if you wanted to find 5 contiguous transient prices on a chart, then use a 5-tick chart. Any bar that ...

NorthTrader replied Jun 7, 2015Yeah, maybe I've got the wrong end of the stick. I thought Bill was postulating that a price level that get hits only once is a potential problem area. So the only way to see that would be on a 1-tick chart, wouldn't it? On a 2-tick chart, if the ...

NorthTrader replied Jun 7, 2015Welcome back Vlad
I was worried you'd gone forever. It's great your trading's going well and you're able to bag the 70-120 pip moves consistently. Hard work pays off, eh?
Looking forward to your future posts. Best wishes, NTTransient Zones - Basics

NorthTrader replied Jun 7, 2015Thanks pedma
. By the way, those parameters were optimised for M240. I did try them on lower timeframes (M60, M30, M15, M5, M1) but the results weren't quite as good. Especially M1, which was the worst I think. You might want to reoptimise the ...Statistical Analysis of TZs
