Hi,

i think he's using divergence between price and OsMA. Higher close but lower Osma is a sell... confirmed by supdem and swing indicator.

Regards
Tom

Thanks for your help folks. V 1a with OsMA added is in post 1. I have gone with the OsMA that comes with Empty4. The inputs are underneath the LTF SupDem.

There is an oddity here. The indi only has three inputs yet the code call demands an applied price, so I have gone with the closing price.

I have not updated the user guide in case you people want something more sophisticated than what I have coded, which is:
  • Only sell when OsMA is < 0
  • Only buy when OsMA is > 0
Let me know if you want this amending; it is easy to do.

I have updated the template in the zip file.

Excellent job as always Steve :clap: :clap:

Currently testing it now.

PS. The GBPUSD 4Hour image I showed previously, if you entered on the Osma crossing zero you would be sitting on 80 pips currently.

V 1b is in post 1. I have added SuperTrend into the mix and enabled sending data to the FxTestify database.

I have updated the user guide and chart template in the zip file.

I forgot to include the EA when I updated the chart template with SuperTrend, so make sure your charts do have the bot running.

I made a mistake with the EA template folks. I received this a few minutes ago:
Hi Steve,
I have one question about SupDem and the lower timeframe. From my understanding the input forcetimeframe=0 means it´s using the chart time frame, right? If so, then I couldn´t find any setfiles or templates which tell SupDem to use the M60 timeframe.
Or did I understand something wrong?
Greetings,
Maximilian
Max is correct. You need to set forcetimeframe to whatever time frame you want it running on, otherwise all it does is repeat what shved is already doing.

Hi Steve,
He also uses volume after the swing as a trigger confirmation. Not sure if this could help.

Thank you very much for your great efforts.

Easy enough to add. Only trade when the volume of ticks shift 1 is > shift 2?

The attachment explains how Ghostrider analyses divergence. Is it feasible to incorporate this into the EA? My coding skills are not good enough to do this on my own.

I'm not so sure adding more filters (indicators) is going to help make the indicator more profitable... but I guess having the option is not such a bad thing.

So far slow start (4 trades) with the new setup on H4/H1 including OSMA and excluding Supertrend on my end... 3 out of 4 are profitable :jump:

Steve,

If you don't mind and are still running the original Ghostrider EA, would you mind sharing your results at the end of the week? Possibly sharing the investor account details like you did for the TMMD EA. At least personally it helps understand any variances from my setup and compare to optimizing settings.
