jtrade replied Mar 27, 2015I think it's useful for this method, but the SMA/EMA(13) is fine too : the key as always is to "Know your indicator(s)", whatever it/they might be... The very original key here is using the HA colour change to qualify the pullbacks - great ...

jtrade replied Mar 27, 2015I'm not a SierraCharts user, but for me the HMA(30) is about right : I started with a 50 period, then went all the way down to 20, came back to 30... I use two as I find the xover useful. image

jtrade replied Mar 17, 2015Shouldn't really share this without researching it better first, but you've got me going & I quite like the look of this 34/3 Regression Channel. Long at the bottom, short at the top after a good swing (like just now & with all other rules in ...

jtrade replied Mar 17, 2015I have only looked at this really closely the last 48 hrs, but it seems that many losers have a reverse setup almost immediately... (well, it's the nature of a range bar to close at its high or low and it would most likely NOT be a "true" setup as ...
