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.

 

  walterw said:

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...

 

  walterw said:

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.

 

Jim

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.

 

Cheers

Hi Blu-Ray,

 

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

 

Thanks again,

 

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: 2nd April 2025.   Market on Edge: Tariff Announcement and Volatility Ahead!   The US economic and employment data continues to deteriorate with the job vacancies figures dropping to a 5-month low. In addition to this, the IMS Manufacturing PMI also fell below expectations. However, both the US Dollar and Gold declined simultaneously following the release of the two figures, an uncommon occurrence in the market. Traders expect a key factor to be today’s ‘liberation day’ where the US will impose tariffs on imports. USDJPY - Traders Await Tariff Confirmation! Traders looking to determine how the USDJPY will look today will find it difficult to determine until the US confirms its tariff plan. Today is the day when Trump previously stated he would finalize and announce his tariff plan. The administration has not yet released the policy, but investors expect it to be the most expansionary in a century. President Trump is due to speak at 20:00 GMT. On HFM's Calendar the speech is stated as "US Liberation Day Tariff Announcement". Currently, analysts are expecting Trump’s Tariff Plan to impose tariffs on the EU, chips and pharmaceuticals later today as well as reciprocal tariffs. Economists have a good idea of how these tariffs may take effect, but reciprocal tariffs are still unspecified. In addition to this, 25% tariffs on the car industry will start tomorrow. The tariffs on the foreign cars industry are a factor which will particularly impact Japan. Although, traders should note that this is what is expected and is not yet finalised. Last week, President Trump stated that he would implement retaliatory tariffs but allow exemptions for certain US trade partners. Treasury Secretary Mr Bessent and National Economic Council Director Mr Hassett suggested that the restrictions would primarily target 15 countries responsible for the bulk of the US trade deficit. However, yesterday, Trump contradicted these statements, asserting that additional duties would be imposed on any country that has implemented similar measures against US products. The day’s volatility will depend on which route the US administration takes. The harshness of the policy will influence both the Japanese Yen as well as the US Dollar.   USDJPY 5-Minute Chart   US Economic and Employment Data The JOLT Job Vacancies figure fell below expectations and is lower than the previous month’s figure. The JOLT Job Vacancies read 7.57 million whereas the average of the past 6 months is 7.78 million. The ISM Manufacturing Index also fell below the key level of 50.00 and was 5 points lower than what analysts were expecting. The data is negative for the US Dollar, particularly as the latest release applies more pressure on the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates. However, this is unlikely to happen if the trade policy ignites higher and stickier inflation. In the Bank of Japan’s Governor's latest speech, Mr Ueda said that the tariffs are likely to trigger higher inflation. USDJPY Technical Analysis Currently, the Japanese Yen Index is the worst performing of the day while the US Dollar Index is more or less unchanged. However, this is something traders will continue to monitor as the EU session starts. In the 2-hour timeframe, the USDJPY is trading at the neutral level below the 75-bar EMA and 100-bar SMA. The RSI and MACD is also at the neutral level meaning traders should be open to price movements in either direction. On the smaller timeframes, such as the 5-minute timeframe, there is a slight bias towards a bullish outcome. However, this is only likely if the latest bearish swing does not drop below the 200-Bar SMA.     The key resistant level can be seen at 150.262 and the support level at 149.115. Breakout levels are at 149.988 and 149.674. Key Takeaway Points: Job vacancies hit a five-month low, and the ISM Manufacturing PMI missed expectations, adding pressure on the Federal Reserve regarding interest rate decisions. Traders await confirmation on Trump’s tariff policy, which is expected to impact the EU, chips, pharmaceuticals, and foreign car industries. The severity of the tariffs will influence both the JPY and the USD, with traders waiting for final policy details. The Japanese Yen Index is the worst index of the day while the US Dollar Index is unchanged. Always trade with strict risk management.
