Sorry Adal but smash is right here, the 95% is the total loser's estimate regardless of timeframes. So that means that 95% of traders lose on M1,M5,M15,H1,H4,D1,W1,MN1,etc on all of them 95% lose, it is proportional to all of them. Now nominally ...

Time as it is, and price as it is, are the 2 variables by which the PRICEACTION, which is a 2 D array is constructed. image Timing is only a snippet from this array, where you place/exit your trades. It is PRICE( TIME ),where your insert whatever ...

My fractal indicator, can be customized to any number of fractal bars that you want.But the lagg will be always 1 bar, and non repaint, so that is the previous CLOSE will be the signal. No edge found, or atleast not in the first 30 bars, while ...

I dont use MACD, i clearly stated in my prev posts that i use my custom indicators which are by tenfold better than traditional ones.I only mentioned the MACD maybe because ........ its the nr 1 most popular one out there.So if there is something ...

1) Time in the markets is important and real.Wheather time itself is real is a philosophical question. 2) So either there is a preferred TF or there isnt, its just simple as that.I say there is you say there isnt.So far you didnt gave any more ...

So, the problem with your methodology, if you didnt realized it so far, is that you are already looking at the end result when using repainting indicators, so the statistics is flawed.I cant explain it more than this, let me give you a ...

Sh!t this took longer than anticipated, but finally my platform is ready.I`ve tested a simple strategy and it almost showed identical results. I`ve triple checked my code but no matter how the end balance was never identical in MT4 as in my ...

I`ve done the statistics and on short term they dont work.I dont know on what time interval you trade but, i`ve modified the fractals indicators so that the repaint was removed, and from a 5-20 period there was certainly no edge. (On any TF) I didnt ...

What if you put on a trade at a bar close, but then on the next bar the ZZ repaints and shows the opposite direction ? What will you do then ? Close the trade? Because if it would not repaint then you would not get that fake signals in the first ...

The ZZ indicator repaints, thats like cheating yourself, because the problem doesnt get resolved, you only pretend that its not there as your indicator will return you fake signals.

I wanted to say wavelength but it does also apply to the amplitude.Basically the oscillator type indicators are the worst ones, while the others are less bad: On lower TF the wavelength is short and the amplitude also, that is that the frequency is ...

Its funny that you accuse me of not respecting your own view about your own thinking that you dont have a preferred timeframe, when you yourself in the previous post stated that there "are not preferred timeframes" implying that nobody else has. It ...

What about indicators? A MACD 12,26,9 on M5 is surely not identical to a MACD 12,26,9 on M15. The market can be of fractal nature but definitely its amplitude is not symmetrical on all timeframes.So by using indicators at an X preferred timeframe ...

My platform is almost finished so i will soon resume my research about this topic. In the meantime i redownloaded my historical data, without swaps, as the normal hist files contain the swaps, but they always apply the latest swap to the entire ...

[quote=pip.monkey;7760112]<p> Thats nonsense.Everyone has a preferred timeframe, i agree that there is no objective one (if not the collective aggregate of prefferred subjective ones), but as subjectives ones the majority still tends towards H4->D1 ...

I found an article on dailyfx: url I dont know how many of you read it, but it seems like here aswell the M15,H1,H4,D1,W1 are mentioned to be the "best" ones. It could be a self fulfulling prophecy,as on every forum you look, these timeframes will ...

Dont even bother, MT4 strategy tester is really slow like a snail, i almost completed my own strategy tester in C#. I wont code a chart in it, although i already made a chart viewer program earlier, i also showed prinscreens in this forum, because i ...
