Hello Walter; can you test how close the signal vma(4,4,4) and its Hull(25), are to your adxvma() and corresponding Hull? similarly for the signal vma(5,5,5) and its Hull(25). It is impossible for me to test it, as we do not have the same data. cheers. Unicorn.

Thank you Blu-Ray. I have understood the concept. I don't use tradestation; I just read "ela"; no need for the eld file. What are your results on an exit strategy? Have a look at the DAX chart on http://www.traderslaboratory.com/forums/24/walter-s-forex-vma-trend-scalps-2558-10.html#post23897 and join the discussion if you feel like it. cheers. Unicorn.

Walter you missed one post; and I though you liked the JPY!!! Well Walter, I certainly don't want to miss your remarks on my charts. Yes, I realize that the DAX is not forex, but let's pretend it is a currency and improve on our methodology. Actually your methodology, "ours" in the sense of our intention to apply it, when finalized. So the questions today refer to: 1) aggressive or conservative entry 2) exit strategy using Hook From Extreme. Your point of view is always appreciated. Cheers. Unicorn.

Hello Blu-Ray; Would you please describe the concept of the ccivma computation? I am aware of the cci computation details; so your description could evolve around the cci computation, if that makes things easier. I have noticed that you have uploaded the .eld file. Could you upload the .ela file as well? Take it easy. Have a nice weekend. Unicorn.

Thank you Blu-Ray. You have not posted a DAX chart recently. Have you finalized your exit strategy? Here is one. How has your ccivma helped in the trade management? Cheers. Unicorn.

Walter; Are you printing every vmar icon trade and creating a folder, or are you entering the trades in an excel spreadsheet to compute statistics? How far are you in the 10000 (myriad) trades collection? Unicorn.

Thank you Walter. In order to help in this vma research, I suggest the following: Will you please plot a signal vma(ema_periods=2, adx_periods=2, stoch_periods=2), a signal vma(ema_periods=2, adx_periods=3, stoch_periods=3), and your new adxvmatest3(...) , on these eurusd and gbpusd charts, without the rainbow, and post them. Actually my request is for two plots of each, the one with the default ma_periods =2, and the other with ma_periods=1. To be precise what I am asking for is: chart1 ADX:2, EMA:2, MA:2, Stoch:2 ADX:2, EMA:2, MA:2, Stoch:2 chart2 ADX:3, EMA:2, MA:1, Stoch:3 ADX:3, EMA:2, MA:1, Stoch:3 I can relate to that. I will be looking for your post with the charts that I asked for, so that I compare them to my plots. regards. Everyone working on this project, Have a nice weekend guys.:pc guru: Unicorn.

Hello Sparrow; nice work :thumbs up::thumbs up::thumbs up: will you please explain the concept of the adxvma_test3 i.e. how this line is computed? Also what are the parameters that are used ? this is really a parameters adventure: adxvmatest3(1,4,25,hma,0,0,1,4,4,4,0). :confused: cheers. Unicorn.

Hello Walter; Looking good. :thumbs up::thumbs up::thumbs up: Can you please post the same setup on a gbpusd chart or eurusd chart, as I do not have eurjpy data, and I therefore cannot compare your lines to my plot. What are the exact parameters that you use on the adxvma and the Hull periods? cheers. Unicorn.

Walter, last one for tonight. Japan Yen scalps 01-11-2007 on 5min, 1min charts. Comparison to 220T, and 55T. This is a good one. Take care. Unicorn.

Cable scalp 01-11-2007. Cable trade 01-11-2007. Walter, your comments and annotations are always welcome. Take it easy. Unicorn.

Walter; Euro scalp 01-11-2007. on 220T and 55T; The setup is not very clearly defined. On 5 min chart it is a mess. What do you think? cheers. Unicorn.

Walter; Aussie scalps 01-11-2007. Well not exactly scalps, rather mini trades. How is your study with the NT vmar coming along? I feel that something interesting is brewing. cheers. Unicorn.

Hi Walter; Looney scalp 01-11-2007. I think that we need to finalize the exit strategy. Your comments are always appreciated. cheers. Unicorn.

Maybe I did not phrase my question clearly. Please explain the quantities that the question marks refer to. by the way, ;)"nice chart, what are the parameters of the adx_periods, the stoch_periods and the ema_periods?" hehehe cheers Unicorn.

Sparrow will you please elaborate in the form: signal vmar_2(ema_periods, adx_periods, stoch_periods); and rainbow base vmar_2(ema_periods, adx_periods, stoch_periods); For example by watching Walter's chart, I have the impression that the number 100 (max ema) is displayed within the sequence of ma_periods, adx_periods, stoch_periods. This will create confusion, and perhaps a lot of posts of the type: "nice chart, what are the parameters of the adx_periods stoch_periods?" cluttering the thread. By the way, why do you want to have the ema range displayed anyway? keep up the good work. Unicorn.

Looking good!! Now, Sparrow please explain the sequence of parameters (as posted on the chart) in fantailvma1 and vmaband. 11 ticks Walter ??? By the way Walter, you do need the first three bands to be differently colored, as they help with exits. good work guys. Unicorn.

That is correct Walter. You are welcome. Unicorn.

That's correct Walter; in increments of 2 I have used the groups: 2-12 yellow 14-24 red 26-36 aqua 38-50 blue 52-60 brown 62-72 gold 74-84 cyan 86-96 violet 100 magenta How is your rainbow? Unicorn.

Sparrow; In your code, I cannot locate where you compute the rainbow , i.e. for (rainbow_ema_periods=2; rainbow_ema_periods <=100; rainbow_ema_periods=rainbow_ema_periods +2) { rainbow_line = EMA( rainbow_base_Vidya , ema_periods) ; plot(rainbow_line, .....); } please verify that this loop is correct in your code ( that may be the minor bug you mention) best regards. Unicorn.

Walter; the values I have used are also depicted in my charts, in the following notation: In vmar_1 cyan line is: signal vmar_1(ema_periods, adx_periods) and red line is: rainbow base vmar_1(ema_periods, adx_periods); Note that in vmar_1 implementation, stoch_periods = adx_periods. In vmar_2 cyan line is: signal vmar_2(ema_periods, adx_periods, stoch_periods); and red line is: rainbow base vmar_2(ema_periods, adx_periods, stoch_periods); Usually I have used: signal vmar_2(ema_periods=3 or 4, adx_periods=4 or 5 or even 8, stoch_periods = 4 or 5 or even 8, 10) and rainbow base vmar_2(ema_periods=5 or 6, adx_periods=4 or 5, or even 8 stoch_periods = 4 or 5 or even 8, 10) Take care. Unicorn.

Good day Sparrow; in your code: double adxMin = MIN( ADX( Low, ADXPeriod ), StochPeriod )[ 0 ]; double adxMax = MAX( ADX( High, ADXPeriod ), StochPeriod )[ 0 ]; are you certain that these lines of code compute adxmin = LLV(adx, stoch_period) ; Lowest value of adx in the last stoch_period bars ? and adxmax = HHV(adx, stoch_period) ; Highest value of adx in the last stoch_period bars ? adx in my implementation is computed on the close. (as is usually done). Does the Ninja Trader have the HHV and LLV functions? cheers. Unicorn.

Good day Walter; IQFeed The CME package. take care Unicorn.

Bruce; You can try Amibroker; there is a free version to test that the programming suits your taste and requirements. It even downloads free historical data for your testing. Or you can try Ninja Trader. For that you need to ask Sparrow. Take care. Unicorn.

Bruce; you are using wilders_ma; it is standard in the internal computation of adx; do you remember that Wilder created the adx? In my post I was reminding this fact to you. Take it easy. Unicorn.
