I don't think its different. Just put another way, I think. Although the length (14) by itself is not what I understand (means longer?). We want to know if the exact pattern match (with length tolerance - what I call my "in-length") has a higher ...

Fractals, ZZ & the Pissing Dog

For you, ignorance is bliss. Because I have posted LOTS of screenshots. But you decline to do a little research, as I've pointed out, and all of us can clearly see now. Carl

Fractals, ZZ & the Pissing Dog

Thoughts, thanks for the re-posts of GG's screenshots! It does seem as though some new people have not looked at the other thread. Carl

Fractals, ZZ & the Pissing Dog

No, I really don't think you do understand. Your questions suggest otherwise... No, I don't think you do understand. Again I ask, what does your algorithm tell you? I wouldn't have spent 3 months of my life, and hundreds of hours programming this ...

Fractals, ZZ & the Pissing Dog

How did your algorithm tell you there should have been a short there? Carl

Fractals, ZZ & the Pissing Dog

GG53 has not posted that yet, and no he has not given it to me apart from everyone else. I will learn it when you do. Carl

Fractals, ZZ & the Pissing Dog

From that previous low zigzag up to that point, the fractal pattern is (01). Searching that pattern told me that the (010) pattern is actually more probable. So, we wait for it. The higher probability pattern ends with a LOW fractal. You can't have ...

Fractals, ZZ & the Pissing Dog

So, I accidentally had my algo indicator attached to the Mini-Dow yesterday and today. To my surprise, great signals!!! Please note, that the algo history/database is based on EURUSD 5-min bars. Yet the zigzag (real-time), fractals, and bar ...

Fractals, ZZ & the Pissing Dog

I'll let him clarify that. I don't wait for any fractals to appear, as long as I know the current configuration of the last zigzag or last signal. Carl

Fractals, ZZ & the Pissing Dog

I'm looking at it from a database point of view, which is zigzag "end point" based. My algorithm has not evolved enough to catch all the "swing points" yet... current > "1" && current > "0" Thanks.

Fractals, ZZ & the Pissing Dog

I am handling 2 fractals in one bar the following way... G says whatever comes first, the bottom or the top, and that should be the order. So, if I have a bullish bar with 2 fractals, I can logically assume that the bottom fractal came first, since ...

Fractals, ZZ & the Pissing Dog

No. It is tricky if there are no fractals... like after a signal. You have to "guess" if the first fractal is going to be a "1" or a "0" and start database search. You must have at least one fractal to search the database. We are looking for zigzag ...

Fractals, ZZ & the Pissing Dog

Thanks, killerno. I asked G that as well. I have not heard anything different. @MBEng, G has stated that his algo starts a new fractal count after each signal. Carl

Fractals, ZZ & the Pissing Dog

emonts, I have been continuing to tweek my algo. It is almost an hourly occasion that I find myself testing, coding, and de-bugging this algo. I am now have over 400 versions of the program. Recently, I have included fractal and zigzag ...

Very interesting Magix! I'm positive that there are many, many ways to use Bar DNA, Fractal pattern and Zigzag pattern matching, to make some pips from the FOREX market. We are only just scratching the surface. Carl

Fractals, ZZ & the Pissing Dog

Well, I would quote just how un-informed he was, but his posts are gone. I love other points of view. But only if they are points that are based upon the ideas presented, and to the goals established. GG53 is trying to explain the construction of ...

Fractals, ZZ & the Pissing Dog

Magix, my post was not directed at you, by any measure. Sorry, its a pet-peeve of mine when people post un-informed and illogical rantings about something they have no clue about. Especially when we've been churning through this fractal theory for ...

Fractals, ZZ & the Pissing Dog

Ok, before anyone else makes themselves look stupid, please peruse the old thread that EURUSDD started, which led to this great thread. Working algorithm screenshot (among many in that thread) & a semi-good starting point on the other thread: url ...

I Love DNA!

Fractals, ZZ & the Pissing Dog

Well, for transparency sake, the GBPJPY trade has exceeded its previous high... maybe by setting to breakeven after 1/2 of the target is met, this might be avoided. But, on the other side of the coin, how many trades will be whipsawed into breakeven ...
