All valid points guys. Thanks. But I'm not yet clear about the liquidity issue on the global scale. If forex market trade trillions a day, and most trades are done by the big guys, what damage can retail traders really do? How big are the retail ...

Is this the reason why you don't want to share your Holy Grail?

Jay I need your opinion. If you trade daily and your trades run for weeks at times, how do you manage the roll over charges? I never trade longer than a day because I was told that by the end of the NY session there will be daily roll over charges, ...

Jay helping out newbies

Dude, whatever you say. Look at the date I have circled on the screenshot. This conversation is not even relevant anymore. You still naively think that there is a buyer and seller and liquidity issue with retail binary options. There can never be a ...

Why Binary Forex Options are better than Spot Forex

Well, it doesn't take a genius to realize that if it was you who bought a call at that moment, without that spike you would've won. I'll be pissed if that happens to me. As a matter of fact, it actually happen to someone I read on a forum. He put it ...

Why Binary Forex Options are better than Spot Forex

Thanks y'all for the swift and intelligent responses. This turns out to be quite a fascinating read. I was really hoping to get experts' opinions on this. I've taken all your points. Sharing will indeed kill the market inefficiency we all are trying ...

Is this the reason why you don't want to share your Holy Grail?

You wouldn't call binary options better than spot forex after you see this. The top screen is their screen with sudden unexplainable spike, and the bottom one is the same chart in MT4.

Why Binary Forex Options are better than Spot Forex

I just figured that maybe there is a good scalping indicator that can also be used on a 1H or 1D chart. Since they are designed to predict what will happen in the next few bars, maybe the same logic can be applied to longer time frames.

Is there a non-repainting, extremely short trend indicator?

Oh well, I may have put it the wrong way then. I stand corrected.

Is there a non-repainting, extremely short trend indicator?

I like this original idea. It does make sense. But I think it is still way underdeveloped. I think we could also mathematically count the movement within the bar. Say a variable will keep track every uptick that happens in one bar and another ...

Trend-spotting

Well, it isn't the answer. I haven't found it. Those are just examples that I've researched but to no avail. I do have a genuine request for this indicator. I'm not asking for a perfect indicator. As long as the arrow gives a rather accurate signal ...

Is there a non-repainting, extremely short trend indicator?

M, you don't have to pay nobody for this. 12x12MA Crossover alert indicator does not repaint at all, but it isn't accurate either.

Is there a non-repainting, extremely short trend indicator?

Thank you so much cja. Love the great and generous people in this forum. Been toying with this new calculation. Throwing in small and large periods, comparing it with different price calculations, comparing it with different methods, and I'm ...

Can someone please help code MA that only uses open & close?

Thank you kindly for the link. It works. But I'm not sure how many periods are calculated there, and there is no way you can customize it (sma, ema, ssma, lwma, hma). Can anyone add these manipulations into this MA code? I'm going to combine this ...

Can someone please help code MA that only uses open & close?

Is it not possible to do? I think we just have to replace PRICE_CLOSE with (PRICE_OPEN+PRICE_CLOSE) / 2, somewhere in the code. Give it a shot guys. We could learn something new here.

Can someone please help code MA that only uses open & close?

I've always though that the sole reason why technical indicators work is because they are psychological indicators. Candle chart patterns, Support and resistance, Moving average, do not make sense in terms of the real value of an asset. They work ...
