The Chimp`s new "Futures Scalps"

Unicorn : so far BOP outperforms ad and chaikin...

 

Hello Walter;

it is great that you have already tested BOP versus AD_Osc; it is nice to know that BOP outperforms.

 

remember to take care on momentum conditions, as they may diverge and then still keep going on the same direction...

 

Indeed, I know that too well; especially when price hits the trailing stop and then sprints to hit the pivot point no matter what...

 

counter trend trades demand good momentum discernment skills...

 

Yes; I am not there yet.

 

I am studying the negative laddering and the subsequent vmar icon. That is a very interesting setup. :thumbs up::thumbs up:

If you get a chance, please point out a few of those trades - negative laddering and subsequent vmar icon - in your video presentations.

 

Take it easy.

Unicorn.

Laddering became automatic and is discounted on the new way setups are formed... so I dont look at them on the setup formation anymore, it was a very good interesting instance during the open research... but is good to know how they work as they became hidden components of our trading aproach... cheers Walter.

Hi Cattus;

 

this is the accumulation_distribution Line, a summation of the value since the beginning of the chart. It is not the oscillator; that's why it does not require the 14 bar input.

 

It is also a different from the BOP based computation because it uses

 

((Close- Low) - (High - Close)) / (High - Low) * Volume

 

instead of

 

(Close- Open) / (High - Low) * Volume

 

 

regards.

Unicorn.

 

 

OK, Unicorn. I understand.

 

I tried to find some oscillator of Accumulation/Distribution in the forum of NT, but I did not find a example of them. May be other can help you.

 

Regards.

Agustín

Hi Blu-Ray,

 

Is it possible to code BOP for TradeStation?

 

Thanks,

 

Jim

 

Here you go Jim, I've read that they are a couple of variations to the BOP, so not sure which is correct. I think Unicorn mentioned Volume being in the calculation.

 

The code I've attached is based on this :

 

BOP = (Close - Open) / ( High - Low);

 

If anyone thinks this is incorrect, please let me know so I can amend it.

 

Cheers

The yellow line is a signal line based on a simple moving average of the cci.

 

I've recoded it for you so you can download it again.

 

Hope this helps

Hi Blu-Ray,

 

Thanks for your quick response to my BOP request. It seems to react differently from the MT4 version.

 

When I compare the TS version (using multicharts and ES) with The MT4 version on a 1 min. scale, there is quite a bit of difference. I am anything but a programmer but I suspect that volume may have something to do with BOP. Volume my be somewhat of a problem with Forex but should not be with futures contracts.

 

Thanks again for anything you may be able to do.

Leave it with me and I'll take a look at it, if possible could you post a chart of your MT4 with ES on it, so I can compare and fix it.

Hi Blu-Ray,

 

I think I have the screen shot attached. Let me know if it is clear enough.

 

Thanks again,

 

Jim

 

Jim

 

I've coded it up exactly the same as the version igorad posted earlier. I've only got forex data on my MT4, so I've compared it live against the EURJPY yesterday. It was close but would vary, probably because the forex data is coming from different sources.

 

However, I compared the ES on my TS charts to the chart you posted and it's way off. Unfortunately I can't explain it, I would guess it has something to do with the different platforms in which they handle the data, I know MT4 has repainting problems with some indicators, whether this is the case, I'm unsure. The code itself is straight forward so I think it must be down to the platforms.

 

Anyway, give it a try for yourself.

Thanks again for this indicator. I have run the new version through some forex charts and it seems to work pretty well as a divergence indicator, but it really seems to fall down on ES.

 

I think you are right about the platforms. I generally use Multicharts with Tradestation data. I put BOP_v2 on both charts and they are different, even though they are using the exact same data.:confused:

 

Still looking for a divergence indicator for ES on tradestation. If you have any ideas, please let the world know. I love Walters set up on MT4 and NT, for both the Icon and the divergence, but there are so many limitations on these charts. I am used to looking at volume charts for futures. Not available on MT4 and NT will only let you import 1 minute historical data from Tradestation.:crap:

 

Anyway, thank you...thank you....thank you.....for your contributions. I continue to look forward to your posts.:)

Thanks Jim

 

With regards to a divergence indicator, I've been using the LBR 3/10 Oscillator, it seem to work okay, but with every indicator it's never going to be perfect, I don't trade the ES but I know Dogpile uses it and he trades the ES.

 

Give it a try, I think in the end, it all comes down to what your comfortable with.

Hi Folks

 

I've been a recent 'lurker' here over the last few weeks.

Re-discovered TL after Sparrow posted the Fantail VMA on

the Ninja Support board.

 

I'm just blown away by the community spirit here.

 

I'd like to make my own small contribution.

There was a small bug in the ADXVMA version posted to TL.

This bug would cause the indicator to plot very different values when used in a Ninja Strategy.

Thanks Josh and Sparrow, this is now fixed.

 

I've posed the fixed version below.

Zoltran;

 

please explain what the very small bug was; i.e. post the couple of lines with the code that had the bug

and the correct version of the same lines of code .

 

Thanks.

cheers.

Unicorn.

    • Date: 1st April 2025.   Will Gold’s Rally Hold Strong as New Trade Tariffs Take Effect Tomorrow?   Gold continues to increase in value for a sixth consecutive day and is trading more than 17% higher in 2025. Amid fear of higher inflation, a recession and the tariffs war escalating investors continue to invest into Gold pushing demand higher. The trade policy from April 2nd onwards continues to be a key factor for the whole market. Can Gold maintain its upward trend? Trade Policy From Tomorrow Onwards Starting as soon as tomorrow, a 25% tariff will be imposed on all passenger cars imported into the United States. While this White House policy is anticipated to negatively affect European industrial performance, it will also lead to higher transportation and maintenance costs for everyday American taxpayers. The negative impact expected on both the EU and US is one of the reasons investors continue to buy Gold. Additionally, last month, President Donald Trump announced reciprocal sanctions against any trade partners that impose import restrictions on US goods. Furthermore, tariffs on products from Canada and the EU could increase even more if they attempt to coordinate a response. Overall, investors continue to worry that new trade barriers will prompt retaliatory measures, particularly from China, the Eurozone, and Japan. Any retaliation is likely to escalate the trade conflict and prompt another reaction from the US. Experts at Goldman Sachs and other investment banks warn that this will lead to rising inflation and unemployment. They also caution that it could effectively halt economic growth in the US.   XAUUSD 1-Hour Chart   The Weakness In The US Dollar Another factor which is allowing the price of XAUUSD to increase in value is the US Dollar which has been unable to maintain any bullish momentum. Despite last week’s Core PCE Price Index rising to its highest level since February 2024, the US Dollar has been unable to see any significant rise in value. Due to the US Dollar and Gold's inverse correlation, the price of Gold is benefiting from the Dollar weakness. Investors worry that new trade barriers will prompt retaliatory measures from China, the Eurozone, and Japan, potentially escalating the conflict. Experts at The Goldman Sachs Group Inc. believe that such actions by the US administration will drive rising inflation and unemployment while effectively halting economic growth in the country. Can Gold Maintain Momentum? When it comes to technical analysis, the price of Gold is not trading at a price where oscillators are indicating the instrument is overbought. The Relative Strength Index currently trades at 68.88, outside of the overbought area, since Gold’s price fell 0.65% during this morning’s session. However, even with this decline, the price still remains 0.40% higher than the day’s open price. In terms of fundamental analysis, there continues to be plenty of factors indicating the price could continue to rise. However, the price movement of the week will also partially depend on the employment data from the US. The US is due to release the JOLTS Job Vacancies for February this afternoon, the ADP Non-Farm Employment Change tomorrow, and the NFP Change and Unemployment Rate on Friday. If all data reads higher than expectations, investors may look to sell to lock in profits at the high price. Key Takeaway Points: Gold’s Rally Continues – Up 17% in 2025 as investors seek safety from inflation, recession fears, and trade tensions. Trade War Impact – New US tariffs and potential retaliation from China, the EU, and Japan drive uncertainty, boosting Gold demand. Weak US Dollar – The Dollar’s struggle supports Gold’s rise due to their inverse correlation. Gold’s Outlook – Uptrend may continue, but US jobs data could trigger profit-taking.

    • Date: 31st March 2025.   Trump Confirms Tariffs on All Countries, Sending Stocks Lower.   The NASDAQ continues to trade lower due to the US confirming the latest tariffs will be on all countries. In addition to this, bearish volatility also is largely due to the higher inflation data from Friday. The NASDAQ declines to its lowest price since September 11th 2024. Core PCE Price Index - Inflation Increases Again! The PCE Price Index read 2.5% aligning with expert forecasts not triggering any alarm bells. However, the Core PCE Price Index rose from 0.3% to 0.4% MoM and from 2.7% to 2.8% YoY, signalling growing inflationary pressure. This increases the likelihood that the Federal Reserve will maintain elevated interest rates for an extended period. The NASDAQ fell 2.60% due to the higher inflation reading which is known to pressure the stock market due to pressure on consumer demand and a more hawkish Federal Reserve. Boston Fed President Susan Collins recently commented that tariffs could drive up inflation, though the long-term impact remains uncertain. She told journalists that a short-term spike is the most probable outcome but believes the current pause in monetary policy adjustments is appropriate given the prevailing uncertainties. Although, certain investment banks such as JP Morgan actually believe the Federal Reserve will be forced into cutting rates. This is due to expectations that the economy will struggle under the new trade policy. For example, JP Morgan expects the Federal Reserve to delay rate cuts but will quickly cut towards the end of 2025. Market Risk Appetite Takes a Hit! A big factor for the day is the drop in the risk appetite of investors. This can be seen from the VIX which is up almost 6%, Gold which is trading 1.30% higher and the Japanese Yen which is the day’s best performing currency. Most safe haven assets, bar the US Dollar, increase in value. It is also worth noting that all indices are decreasing in value during this morning's Asian session with the Nikkei225 and NASDAQ witnessing the strongest decline. Previously the stock market rose in value as investors heard rumours that tariffs would only be on certain countries. This bullish swing occurred between March 14th and 25th. Over the weekend, President Donald Trump indicated that the upcoming tariffs would apply to all countries, not just those with the largest trade imbalances with the US. NASDAQ - Technical Analysis In terms of technical analysis, the NASDAQ continues to obtain indications that sellers control the price action. The price opens on a bearish price gap measuring 0.30% and trades below all Moving Averages on all timeframes. The NASDAQ also trades below the VWAP and almost 100% of the most influential components (stocks) are declining in value.     The next significant support level is at $18,313, and the resistance level stands at $20,367.95. Key Takeaway Points: NASDAQ falls to its lowest since September 2024 as the US confirms tariffs on all countries, adding to inflation concerns. Core PCE inflation rises to 0.4% MoM and 2.8% YoY, increasing the likelihood of prolonged high interest rates. Investor risk appetite drops as VIX jumps 6%, gold gains 1.3%, and safe-haven assets outperform. NASDAQ shows strong bearish momentum, trading below key technical levels with support at $18,313 and resistance at $20,367.95. Always trade with strict risk management.
