The thing is, the default SL is always the opposite side of the CZ unless the StopLossOverride is engaged. So by having the MinBar set to 1, his actual SL could be much higher than 17p depending on how big the breakout candle is, and where it closes ...

You bet, glad to be here. DC, I don't understand this one line. Please elaborate...

The font style and font size are both customizable. Pick a bolder font from your library, and input a larger font size, and that should do it.

It amazes me how some guys can understand the 1st post, read the entire thread, demo, take notes, and eventually become self-taught traders, and how other guys download the indi, ignore everything else, and jump to the end and expect special ...

Yes, that's what I understood; we're in sync on this problem. But still, I'd rather have you enter under a set of rules or not at all. Establishing a rule set, but then ignoring the first result of those rules just because you're afraid of whiplash, ...

AWOL, it would help if you post pics. Are you talking about price returning to the CZ after a movement big enough to close most initial trades in profit (eg, 30-40p), or are you talking about false breakouts?

Moody, with the EA you will be able to select how many trades there are per set (same as the indi), as well as custom lot sizes per trade. I suppose it will be possible to set the 1st trades lot size to zero, which would in effect do what you are ...

Sorry, but I can't let this comment pass. My Stairstep Breakout thread DOES NOT place focus on Martingaling. It is only ever mentioned as one possible tool among many. It would be a shame to judge the entire SSBO thread and its 14 month history on a ...

Casey, welcome aboard! The indicator has some Easter Eggs that will only become clear after closely watching the indi do it's thing over several CZ's. I left them out of the Guide on purpose. Have fun finding them!

That was fun to watch!

AWOL, Congratulations, this is a champion post! I couldn't have said it better myself. I know that in order to get "there" you had to slag off tons of emotional baggage and false information that you once took for gospel, and I know it wasn't quick ...

Tropics, you have it half right and half wrong. The opening of the trade basket is of course affected by Spread. But the same is not said for the N value, which is a completely made up artifact that your broker has no part of. The purpose of the N ...

Some quick follow-up notes on my post from yesterday... ~The EA and the indicator are 100% compatible. They will mirror each other in every way possible. The indi's hard coded 1:1 algo, and the levels where trades close and then re-open later, are ...

Since the indicator has reached the Final Edition stages, it's time to start prepping you guys on the EA. Before I begin, I want to make sure to credit Mer for being the inspiration for this jumping stop algo, which I have named the 'N-Ladder'. The ...

NY isn't even open, and I'm already done for the day. Nice finish to the week. Time to grab a book and head to the pool to work on my tan. Second pic shows 6 CZ's over the last 2 weeks, exactly on average. Out of those 6 examples, 3 of them had ...

Sorry, the RecalculateZeroBar part is leftover from an older PDF. My bad. As for the NetPips, the indicator is much more selective now about what qualifies as a legitimate pip earning trade, and also has a much tighter algo when comparing wins to ...

AWOL, Xux just messaged me to say that he located your bug and fixed it already. Everyone, the next version is almost ready to post again. This next version is called the Final Edition. It will have quite a few new and improved features, not to ...

Good questions. Follow Larry's lead and come back in a few days with the answers.

Extracted Thread (per thread starter's request)

Wow Larry, that's a lot of work my friend! Don't know where you found the time with moving house and all. So what's your final verdict then? Does turning 1000 into 2700 prove we have a market edge? Is an increase of over 150% per year enough to ...
