Qman replied Mar 8, 2008While your point is well made, and is/will be interesting to study, you are describing a system that would be a clear departure from the original intent here. The basis for making money in this system is NOT the 10 pip TPs. That is the gravey. In ...

Qman replied Mar 8, 2008Damonl, thanks for checking in over here. I've enjoyed what I've read on your thread, and hope to get back to it over the next couple of days. To answer your question, the EA attaches what is called a "magic number" on the trades that it originates. ...

Qman replied Mar 7, 2008jr2007, I downloaded the EA and it is working, as in running. I only fired it up on Wednesday evening. Seems like it was a tough week. I'm wondering what your results were for the week. In many ways I think this was an atypical week, so I'm rushing ...

Qman replied Mar 6, 2008No, that is exactly what I thought, and what I was doing. I was salivating at the thought of tearing in and explaining how wrong somebody else had it... ... I know so much.... Well, I also know myself well enough to know I needed to re-read the ...

Qman replied Mar 6, 2008gnlir, Thanks for the recap... I've been doing it wrong. I can't believe it! I thought we were supposed to place a ladder of orders with TPs each time we averaged down. Wow... I guess I'd have a couple less open positions if I had done it that way. ...

Qman replied Mar 5, 2008This week was a good example of how if price makes it to 1X the channel height and reverses back to the channel, it will tend to cross all the way to the other side. As Billbss indicates above, price gapped, and went on to take out the 2X profit ...

Qman replied Mar 5, 2008The original plan would say to put your buy stop orders on, and don't let them run out. If price goes up enough, fast enough so that you don't get a position on before they are all gone, you should jump in the market with another group of buy orders ...

Qman replied Mar 5, 2008aj2008: There is no EA currently for this system. Nor is there an indicator. Hayseed said it would not be difficult to code, and that it is similar to one he did for another system. I looked at that other system, and from a coding perspective he is ...

Qman replied Mar 4, 2008Maybe I'm misunderstanding you... or perhaps you are running with one of the options presented by another contributor. According to the original method, you don't just add a new averaging position each time there is a drop of 200 pips. You add an ...

Qman replied Mar 4, 2008Heny, you've got it, old chap! Say a long trade is triggered. You'll stay in that until you make your profit target (channel range X 2), or the end of the the week, or your stoploss is hit. Stop loss is the opposite side of the channel, which means ...

Qman replied Mar 4, 2008Henyloc, I got some of the same time issues you do, and so I can relate. The 4 hour bars for my broker don't match the open and close times for Nomask's broker. So, I investigated and believe if you work the 1 hour bars/candles starting from Friday ...

Qman replied Mar 4, 2008Hayseed, thanks for looking in... And, AaaaHaaa!, ... Good thinking! Way to think outside the box! Literally. Three line break? Hmmm. Sounds familiar. I must have seen that around and never jumped in. Did you develop an indicator to go with that? ...

Qman replied Mar 4, 2008Fxhaz, I only have a moment so can't post a chart. But the high was 207.39 and the low was 206.22. These are my broker's numbers on IBFX. Yours might be different. Figure from 1400 GMT to the close GMT (2059). We had a huge gap open on Sunday that ...

Qman replied Mar 2, 2008Wow, I must have had too many beers the first time I read this method. I really got this wrong, and I am glad I looked over the rules again. I like the idea of adding an extra 4 hours to this if the price for the original breakout box doesn't equal ...

Qman replied Mar 1, 2008So far you are very clear and precise. Thanks for your efforts to date. For the Stochastic Ocillator though you did not specifically specify the type of moving average method to calculate (SMA, EMA, etc), nor the price field (High/Low, etc). When ...

Qman replied Feb 28, 2008Due to a network error, you all have been saved from one of my novels. God was sending me a message for sure. So let me make it simpler... I think this little channel has some power through the rest of the week. A cursory check indicates if we make ...

Qman replied Feb 26, 2008Bhale, I will give you the general concept, but I don't use that EA, so I will not try to give insight to every possible setting. Basically, the EA will stake an initial position at the time the user specifies. It stays in that position throughout ...

Qman replied Feb 25, 2008Hayseed, I'm not going to pretend I know why, but based upon Mombone's post I'm thinking that the issue COULD have something to do with using a WHILE loop instead of a FOR loop. As I said, I don't know WHY that would make a difference here, but it ...
