Nice work Don. This is your Passion i guess. Don't you think it would be a good idea to make a own thread? I think there will be many guys who would like to try your indies and ask questions.

I just tried the AllPairs and daily pivot indy and i had to set them into Manual mode. Automatic doesn't do the Job and gives me some weird eastern offset values...

I also would really like to see the Fibs added :-)

Bob, I understand your frustration. Believe me. I'm sorry for getting frustrated with you earlier in the thread and yelling.

This difference is why I have concentrated on what I making it a non-issue. I have found when I use the correct bar for week open on a criminal, I get the correct week open price vs what Empty4 gives for week open price. A difference as large as 173 pips on a pair just using this first week of December. I also found that when I also use correct international daily open, together they achieve a 92.5% increase in accuracy across multiple traders/criminals vs using what Empty4 gives for weekly and daily open price. The supporting documentation, including multi-sheet Excel doc, is on my website.

I created my indicators so that this can finally once and for all become a non-issue. Use my indicators and the problems pretty much go away. This is just my effort to help all traders. The Eastern Offset is retrieved twice. Once when initialized, and once in start when indicator sees criminal time has changed from last tick (so criminal is online). This uses literally almost no resources. Two calls to the web and then the offset is locked in.

I see that using my updated AllPairs indicator, which I've added Phil's sell at R3, buy at S3 (haven't kept updated so there may be additional rules I'm not aware of), and see that I got a "PhilSell" (aka PS) on EURJPY. It looks like though that price went way above R3 where it sits now.

I also added on my website my own setup, which includes my corrected Weekly and Daily Opens, Pivots, S/R, Trendlines (needs more work to add more trendlines I see I'm missing), Round Numbers (every 25 pips), Sessions (which I've changed to Eastern times and offset), News, and Big Price.

I may have to update AllPairs to lessen the amount of for loops to a minimum, but there is literally nothing else I can see doing to speed it up more than I already have by optimizing code for creating labels seen on chart.

Have fun. Enjoy!

Kindest regards,

Don
Don I am more than happy to use your work and I did put your first attempt up front and center. The problem I had with your first attempt was it bogged down my computer and I found out I really cant use that. Once you have that problem solved I will put it up front and center again for everyone to try. I know we can work it out but these things take time.

So far a blaise 19-20 for the week with a total -4 pips. Looking forward to tomorrow and the NZD rate. If they cut their rate I expect to NZD to take a plunge.

I would be interested in your views as to why things seem to have shifted so strongly to a market that requires scalping strategies. Remember, it wasn't that long ago when you were putting out NB 10.0 and 10.1 and everything seemed to be moving with gang buster trends. Simply buying or selling based on the D1 TMA slope was perfectly fine.

It doesn't seem to be a volume problem. In the midst of the US markets, the volume is quite high but very few trends are evident.

Any insights?

Yeah its December and I pack it in in about 5 days. I dont bother trading the last 2.5 weeks of December. Just not worth it, started that about 3 years ago. Not much you can do, business are closing their books and international trade just disappears. The big boys also quit trading. So maybe a good time to practice some stuff but I dont bother.

Last week and this week have not been going very well according to 10.3.. I'm considering packing up until next year, but it's sad there is still decent movement just not exactly how we want it.
