Mr_You, I really don't know what you are missing... Maybe the part about the "length" or "count" (total number of bars in zz leg) is not explained well enough and is missing from the docs. Lately it was brought to my attention. Sorry about that - ...

Fractals, ZZ & the Pissing Dog

Etecy, Ha?! No!! You run the algo in "out of sample" data and if "error" prediction occur you insert the actual ZZ leg pattern into the database once. you keep doing that for each "error" that follows, even if that exact pattern apears again. G.

Etecy, Q1: No. I built it before smallcat post. Very briefly looking at it - they looks very much the same, but I didn't check it to verify. Q2: Your conclusion and example looks correct. That's the way my algo does it. Q3: In cases of "error" ...

LiquidGenius, No martingale in this or any other EA's that I created. G.

velox, You are partialy right. 1. The EA was in "recovery" mode due to account status, and that's not its regular trading behaviour. 2. You don't know its hedging technique - so you don't know if it was in a " large loss" state. 3. You can't compare ...

Kilian19, I mentioned it several times in that thread or previous one - but maybe failed to be mentioned in the docs. To be practical - If you got large bars (pips wise) - they are equivalent to larger bars count in the database. G.

To answer a few recent thoughts: Running time - 2.5-3.5 minutes run was on early stages of development. Lots of not-optimized loops... Fibs - I acknowledge it's accuracy, but it's voodoo for me - I don't use it. Renko - Looks very promising, but ...

Good article about probabilities with source code. Pitty it's only in Russian and not translated. I used Google translate. url G.

LittleCaro, This is because of the CurrencyStrength - trade signal must be on swing point M5/M15 (or few bars after it) AND confirmed by H1/H4 CurrencyStrength. ~07:00 is the last hour of Asian session before Europe Session (Franfurt open): Trying ...

Kilian19, I don't know what you are doing - I didn't checked your code... You start looking for "next bar..." AFTER you have satified probability of fractal pattern. And as I said in previous post: if you got 4 fractals that match 4 fractals ...

Fractals, ZZ & the Pissing Dog

Guys, To answer, directly and indirectly, many related questions & PM's: At the end of each ZZ leg there is a fractal. We start counting the first fractal AFTER that one (not including the fractal at the end of previous leg). Our historical database ...

(Finished...) On our way to "double within a month" (or not...), [see FF Trade-Explorer] The algo uses the ForexGT_Arrow algo combined with CurrencyStrength scanner and Activity indies. Loosing positions are hedged at reasonable levels with unique ...

burnssss, Really sorry, but I don't understand your issue/question. Probabilities are always calculated the same way in all steps. There is no "bayes","Markov" or "Hipergeometric load" in my probabilitis calculations. G.

Trader_X, ForexGT_Arrow is part of the algo. It should also match individual currency strength/weakness, volatility and pair activity - to signal accurate entry. G.

stt, You don't know the full features of that EA/System and it's recovery mode, as well as it's other features. Big DD is hedged with unique mechanism to get out of that hedge (maybe I'll elaborate on different thread/forum). Many Pips is not the ...

K40, We are missing your chart. My algo/indie is running "out of sample" from 1.1.2013 - 15 months - not "wippy" without additional filter. G.

stt, The algo is in recovery mode - to compensate for the previous bugs, 600 build, and lost time. The NZDUSD is my error. I forgot to include the coming NZD news, and they announced new interest rate. In recovery mode the system doesn't use fixed ...
