Bruce, I'm using P4L PeriodCon (comes with the Fratelli zipfile) on 64-bit Win7. No problems. OK, backtesting on New York session, starting 9am ET (14:00 GMT, 7am here in Colorado): 9:10 ET AUDUSD -- White arrow, but green bar. 9:30 bar turns red, ...

Um. It looks like you already do!? It's just one of the indicators in the Fratelli package (FFcal), set up by the template.

D'oh!!! Silly me, I assumed the template set the right values. Thanks, pedross! My first 25-pip win got delayed by one bar, but other than that I think all the trades are still valid. Anyone see any problems?

So let me see if I'm reading the charts & rules right... EURUSD: start trading 5:50 GMT = 7:50 by my broker 06:00 -- crossed above and below, body low = 1.3521, set entry 4.0 pips below = 1.3517. Entry hit in 8:10 bar, got as low as 1.35056 in 8:20 ...

I agree MM, I really need a "pay attention to the chart NOW" alert. I have to work for a living so I can't watch the charts. If you or someone else doesn't make one, I'll pull one together once I get a chance. (And once I really understand all the ...

Great idea! And it would really help me (and probably others) if you could identify the time of the trade, so we can compare our results against yours. Thanks Dean!

I'm not looking at the color. I'm looking at the data values. These pictures are from Peter's example in EURJPY. Picture 1: Price close crosses the EMA. So does the Super candle. Value3 = Price Close because the Super candle closed at the top of the ...

Peter, sorry to be such a pain on this, but this is a critical part of the main signal. I think Aztrader2 is right -- Value3 is the close, not Value4. But sometimes Value3 matches the price close, and sometimes Value4 matches it. The Super candle ...

Ah, of course. Should have remembered seeing that but I'm still learning my way around MT4.
Would have preferred a way to set it just for individual scripts, but this is better than nothing. Thanks!Invictus

Here's an example that shows what I mean. In the Data Window, you can see SuperTrend..., Value 2, Value 3, Value 4. Unfortunately they didn't label them well but I'm 99.99% sure those correspond to O, H, L, C. Look at the Price & Super candle Close ...

Dean, I think it's a reasonable question -- it's confusing me too. Super candle close is NOT the same as the Price close, as shown in the picture I posted. You can't tell from looking at your picture whether the Super candle Close matches the price ...

Aha, OK. So "down white arrow" sets up the signal, but it doesn't activate until the bar turns red. And the bar doesn't have to be red on the arrow bar, but it can turn red later. Thanks!

That's useful, but I was wondering if we can pre-set the "allow live trading" and "allow DLL imports" options.

And a darn good question, too. I've only been using MT4 for about 2 weeks so I haven't figured out details like that. Anybody know?

- garyfritz replied Nov 21, 2011
Peter, questions: 1. The template is set up with "super candles" and no PRICE displayed. When you say "Price needs to CLOSE above/below the 89 EMA," do you really mean PRICE? Or do you mean the close of the super candle? They don't always match. See ...

Dean, did you see my question in #186? It looked like you took a short re-entry when the bars were green, and I thought all the original rules (including red bar) had to be satisfied for a re-entry...

These should work for either micro or mini lots. I modified the scripts that someone else (kolesar? friya? sorry, forgot) posted recently.

url Dean, you got a white down arrow on that chart, but the bar was green. Rules say "all rules still in place" -- so don't you need a red bar to take that short re-entry? Does it have to be red on the arrow bar, or will a red bar after the arrow ...

Yup, that's me.
Peter / Dean, do you want me to change the 2,15 indicator so it uses EMA instead of LWMA? I might also be able to fix the "missing arrows with 1-bar cross" problem if you want.Fratelli Intraday trading system
