Xaphod & giovanni4000, When building the database, counting bars and fractal within each ZZ leg, I consider each ZZ leg to be with fractal at its top/bottom end-point. G.

Fractals, ZZ & the Pissing Dog

giovanni4000, 1. Please point me, in the attached chart, to one ZZ that DOESN'T have a fractal at its end. 2. Calculation is done on each bar wether it's a multiplier of "standard" bar (parameter) and not on the whole ZZ. If it is, than the algo ...

Fractals, ZZ & the Pissing Dog

candero, They are free to come forward, if they want to, but I'm not even going to ask them to do so. 2 of them participated in the previous forum. 1 of them posted here and another one got me on Skype and never posted. Please remember that on the ...

Fractals, ZZ & the Pissing Dog

I just posted this in SteveHopwood's forum (stevehopwoodforex.com) as a response to some posts/comments there : "... There is nothing "Hidden" in my algo. Everything is explained, over and over, again and again, in posts and in my responses to ...

Fractals, ZZ & the Pissing Dog

candero, I thought that was explained in previous post...probably not good enough.... ;-} My database hold real time data, without any modifications. The algo is responsible for deciding if a long bar (pips wise) should be counted as 1 or 2 or 3 ...

Fractals, ZZ & the Pissing Dog

crodzilla & summicron, I'm doing that bar length calclulation in my algo and not in the database. The reason for that is it gives me more control of what is the "normal" or "standard" length using a parameter for it. If you do it in the database ...

QueFx, That's ForexGT_Arrow results for same time period as yours on EURUSD M15. image G.

giovanni4000, Doing it on Renko requires additional steps. The logic is simple but the work is hard... Simply divide your Renko into smaller Renko's blocks. BackTesting Renko bars is a bitch... First D/L reliable Tickdata (try TickStory and data ...

Fractals, ZZ & the Pissing Dog

Etecy, My indie doesn't show that visually - that work is done "behind the scene" by the algo updating the databse. It also doesn't show the ZZ legs and fractals. It will require digging into the database for those updates and find them on the ...

Fractals, ZZ & the Pissing Dog

Etecy, For me, "confirmed" ZZ end-point is when we got a fractal in opposite direction. Reffering to your screenshot - it's 2 bars after the first opposite fractal mark, since fractals are marked only after 2 bars. So, in this case, Point 3 ZZ is ...

Fractals, ZZ & the Pissing Dog

K40, are you using 64 bit or 128 bit encryption in your posts? G.

Fractals, ZZ & the Pissing Dog

Mr_You, If fractal pattern match and bars count match - start looking for "next bar in opposite direction" probability. G.

Fractals, ZZ & the Pissing Dog

Etecy, I check for error if current leg is still in process and I'm getting a confirmed ZZ end-point more than 3-4 bars from my starting point. G.

Fractals, ZZ & the Pissing Dog

Etecy, 1. No, because there was no confirmed ZZ near by, so the algo continues as usual. Once second signal is activated, there will be no "error" checking - because it will cause repainting. 2. We always count from the arrow - except in cases of ...

Fractals, ZZ & the Pissing Dog

Etecy, The algo starts from last confirmed ZZ leg end-point (Std. ZZ indie). G.

FXEZ, Leverage on the acct is 1:100 (Std.) EURUSD=$10/pip Right, it's 483 pips. From start date till end date - the pair made 128 pips. From start date to highest close during that period - the pair made 252 pips. G.

Fractals, ZZ & the Pissing Dog

Mr_You, I'm not looking for ZZ match. Just fractals pattern & bars count - to match in probability calculations. G.

Fractals, ZZ & the Pissing Dog

Fractals, ZZ and the Renko bars (and don't forget the Pissing Dog...) The Renko version of the ForexGT_Arrow EA is finished (incl. Currency-Strength scanner and other supporting filters) . A major problem was the Backtesting of the Renko chart - ...

Fractals, ZZ & the Pissing Dog

VlanFx, In an ideal world the transformed bars count should reside in the database. Currently it is still in the program itsef - which is not ideal... G.

Fractals, ZZ & the Pissing Dog

Mr_You, I already stated here and in previous thread that I'm working on implementing this strategy on Renko bars. ...and yes, it requires quite a few algo changes. G.
