Another good week... still a good idea just to have TP at a conservative cash amount in proportion to number of pairs and lot size and balance plus leverage. Started to move my live account to 0.02 lot size and 15$ tp to close all trades.

Yep
also another good week, just closed it on Friday evening, although it did go in negative pips quite a lot earlier in the week, thought it would implode !!! came back nicely

Too high lot sizes for the account - easy to scale down but looks pretty good so far.

20 pips distance to 240LWMA otherwise pretty much standard I think. M15.

EDIT: Non-standard - Frankfurt open (06:00 GMT at the moment) to 16:00 GMT.

Hi all,

Attached is the fractalated indicator.
It simply shows the up/down signal at the signal candle..i.e 2 candles after the last fractal.

Code: Select all

extern bool   UseCloseForFractal = false;
extern bool   IgnoreSequence     = true;
extern int    GapPips    =   2;
extern int    ArrowSize  =   3;
extern color  BullishArrowColour = LightCyan;
extern color  BearishArrowColour = DeepPink;

UseCloseForFractals
Instead of using High/Low for fractals, the close value is used instead.

IgnoreSequence
Defaults to true, which should give the same signal as the EA.
If set to false, the fractal sequence must strictly be up/down/up/down or down/up/down/up to be accepted.
Any dual fractal candles in between and the signal would be invalidated.
This is for personal experimentation purposes.

GapPips
Set the gap in terms of pips for displaying the up/down signal.
It would be n pips above the high for up and below the low for down signal.

Have fun !
Hope someone could spend some time scanning the charts to see which combination gives the best results.
Do note that Bob's 240 LWMA is NOT factored in

Cheers

v1.01

Added option to display fractals, Set DisplayFractals to true.
Only display the fractals linked to a valid signal.

Added option to display fractals, Set DisplayFractals to true.

The signals using close instead of high/low do look a lil nicer.

Cheers
