@Vadlapatis & Varso:

With regards to your queries about version D:

# I checked the uploaded chart --> very similar ( almost identical ), so no issue there

# Checked against all my demos and files, and found the smoking gun

==> The verion D running on "29__TMACG_Gold_M15_Stacking" demo is one I uploaded here on 17th Jan around 2000H GMT.

==> The one you guys are running seems to be one I uploaded on 20th Jan (after making some changes)

==> The 17th Jan version seems to have been the better version (!). Unfortunately, I don't have the source (.mq4) file for it :/ [ over-written with newer changes ]. What I have is the .ex4 ( running on VPS ). If anyone has the source file for version D that I uploaded on 17th Jan, please upload ( need to compare and see what I changed ).

==> I still think ver C_Beta is a better performer, but still, please find attached ver D 17th Jan ver
TMACG_Gold_M15_STACKING_D_17thJan.ex4

PS: It was never my intention to have a plethora of files lying around, esp coz that tends to cause confusion. However, if the spin-off versions are working well for someone, that's what counts. The official version(s) will always be on Post #1

Cheers

this looks really good.
Can you tell me what currencies are tradeble with the "currencies c beta"-version?
In the meantime I've started testing yesterdays versions and after about one day(what means nothing) the best results are coming from SL 20 and TP 60.
Unfortunately I have a cpu problem every time I attach the mptm. If I do so the whole Empty4 freezes.
If it's not to much work for you, is it possible to include a SL and TP set possibility by pips?
Maybe the freezing problem is because of the many pairs I've opened.
Anyhow, I want to thank you again for your great work
Peter
You're welcome Pete.

The version that I'm uploading shortly works with ALL currency pairs ( 4/5-digit, and 2/3-digit )

But for your requests we've been using a variant of ver C
[ if we keep going like this, we'll end up incorporating a tax calculation module! :P ]

Hope it works for you!

Cheers

I think dudest has answered this one before. I looked at the tma-cg for manual trading and it basically excels in ranging markets and also does well when trending. Introducing a filter to only take trades in the direction of "a trend" (too many definitions of "a trend" anyway) will filter out a huge number of good trades. The strategy takes advantage of the fact that price bounces between the bands - only half of those will be with any trend definition.
I couldn't have put it better!

Thanks Dave :smile:

Hi dudest,

Zentoro posted in the other thread about how he uses TMA Bands with Kumo
http://www.stevehopwoodforex.com/phpBB3 ... =40#p84498

and after studying it a bit...it looks like there is some potential.
At the risk of making your system more complicated, we can use the Kumo to detect market is trending or ranging.

Risk: TMACG is a repainting indie so while this looks nice on the charts, it may not work in reality.

Some observations:
1) If Kumo is within the band, in general expect ranging conditions
2) If kumo is below the band or at bottom of the band, uptrend, if above or touching top of the band, downtrend.
3) Visually, it is possible to "predict" if the market will range by forward projecting the bands and checking the kumo

These may be false sometimes when market switches or when the band slope is very high, but most of the time it looks ok.
By estimations, the rules should be true at least 70% of the time, except during transitions.

Attached code for the kumo in case you want to use it.

Code: Select all

      // Kumo
      senkou_span_a = iIchimoku(NULL, 0, 9, 26, 52, MODE_SENKOUSPANA, 0);
      senkou_span_b = iIchimoku(NULL, 0, 9, 26, 52, MODE_SENKOUSPANB, 0);
This would probably make things more complicated, so sharing this for your study and consideration.
Probably zentoro67 has more points to add.

cheers

dudest » Wed Jan 22, 2014 2:30 pm wrote:So without further ado, please find below the culmination of our efforts thus far: version C_beta

Gold:
TMACG_Gold_M15_STACKING_C_beta.mq4
Currencies:
TMACG_Currencies_M15_STACKING_C_beta.mq4
[ EAs also uploaded to Post #1 ]

Change-log:
a) Conforms ( and performs ) best as per the concept in my mind
b) Param to allow / disallow Stacking [ AllowStacking, default = true ]
c) Param to choose opposite or mid-band TP'ing [ TP_At_Opposite_Band, default = true ]
d) ATR-based JumpingStop and StopLoss [ 2000 periods, slightly more than 1 trading month ]
e) ATR-based TP buffer [ 2000 periods ] that is halved when TP'ing at mid-band
f) ALOT of bug-fixes in pre-existing logic

Note: Currency version is made for the usual 4/5-digit pairs. My intention is to use it with the highly volatile pairs, i.e GBPNZD, GBPAUD, GBPCHF, GBPCAD. It will NOT work with the YENS (and other 2/3-digit pairs).

>> Helpful feedback is greatly appreciated. Also to let you know that (all factors constant), these are the versions I will be trading LIVE.

Enjoy!
I open new demo yesterday with FinFX i put this version on it.
only on gold
