What you're doing is the equivalent of trying to figure out the area of a square by measuring in inches on one side and centimeters on the other. You're working with two different measuring systems. Price and Time. As Einstein stated, space and time ...

There's lots of pics of the torus in this thread. The torus holds a lot of keys. How do you show a torus in a 2D chart, though? Basic geometry. The conic sections. The parabola, hyperbola, ellipse, and circle (special case of the ellipse). See my ...

Exactly. I say that a lot to people hitting me up for "secrets". Hence why I also haven't posted in my journal for ages. None of my tricks are needed for profitable trading. Trade the trend. Have winners bigger than losers by at least 2:1. Then work ...

Yup. Chasing the reason isn't necessary for profitable trading if you can find a consistent way to view and measure the effects. Ironically, the more and more I've dived down the rabbit hole, the less and less I've become interested in the trading ...

I've been doing this shit for years. Unify price and time the same as space and time. To get a forecast of probable future waves, explode the particle (price). Basically "uncollapse" the particle to possible waves. Learn up on the wave/particle ...

I'd force the date to a format in the variable and then again in the code where the search is happening. I think the problem might be in the case statement. I don't use Case Statement's for matching. I use Find(). Here's how I would force the date ...

Using dates from mt4 and then in Excel can be problematic. I prefer to keep the dates as text in the default mt4 format. For a recent project I did for someone, I had to convert Mt4 date format to an Excel date format. I'll post up some code a bit ...

One more I thing I wanted to mention. Using Excel to create chart templates with things like custom pivot levels or whatever else you want on the chart is pretty simple. I've got a spreadsheet for doing a lot of that I can post up if I can find it. ...
