CurrencySlopeStrength 1.0.7
ignoreFuture = true (no repainting)

WRT: NB 10.4/10.5 template:

CSS looks completely different to CSS Diff
Ignoring the colour and looking at the lines, it shows JPY weakening and USD strengthening.

In the chart CSS gave a leading indication of trend towards bullish!

Hi Andy,

What are you using instead of RSI?

Just CSS or CSS and Sto?

Thanks

Hi Brian,

I'm using Ma 240 for direction, CSS, shift 1, must be below 2.50 and CSS shift 0 above 3.00 for the pending orders to be placed, you can switch the CSS off and use the RSI or also use RSI and CSS together, I've also switched useFilterCurrencyNumber = true and extern int NumberToTrade = 2.

That should keep the draw down low, taking all the JPY trades together is basically taking the same trade 7 times, useFilterCurrencyNumber will only allow 2 of those trades at the same time.

Hi Andy - Interesting that you have treated RSI as an option. Here is a quote from NB yesterday.

"240 and RSI 2 are the two most important signals and then confirmation from the following
The tie breakers for me are:
1. Fundamentals, like today was a bank holiday in two major countries usd and gbp, so didnt really spend a lot of time looking for trades. Had two profits 1 for 21 pips and another for 15. Took out my gbp/usd trade for a loss. Strong fundamentals always top anything any indicator may say.
2. CSS info page-are two lines moving away from each other or one flat and another moving away, both indicating strong trend moves.
3. Crossing of DP or WP lines no matter what the indies say but CSS info page gives me a chance.
4. Most of my trades are based on the RSI 2 and the 240 line filter with steps 1,2, or/and 3 above. "

RSI, is optional, the trader can decide, a manual trading system is very flexible, checkout GBPCHF, that trade would never had been taken, had the RSI been included, all breakouts, would have the RSI at 100 or 0.

Version: Multi_10_4_EAv_Final

On Page 1.

The use of the DLL is now optional, I've left the columns if you choose to use it.
The latest Dll version, is not even usable so wait until FX1.net sort it out.

The use of CSS is the last CSS-1 must be below 2.50 and current to show us the way above 3.00, into our direction above or below 240, RSI above 98 or below 2.

Added: Bail when the strengths change, this could save us the draw down we have experienced.

Unzip the file, and run the setup exe, that will load all the files into the correct folders,
you need to download the dll, from here: http://www.mt4gui.com/download/

This is my final version, so high jackers are welcome :)

All the best with your trading.
