Thankyou Tomele,
this is brilliant to have on the one screen,and thank your wife also( wish mine would show similar interest :mrgreen: ).
Scrolling through some markets I get some discrepancies like this shot where DP is actually BETWEEN MP and WP, but the summary says LESS than both,I am also using the settings you recommend above,so you may like to check??
After typing the above I realised I hadn't d/loaded v1a,which now seems to remedy :clap:
Thanks again for an amazing contribution. :good:
macush.

Hi macush.

Thanks for the screenie. It shows that I have to change the drawing order of the objects to get the labels in front of everything else. Meanwhile, you could increase "Step" (distance between candles). I will also have to rename some of the inputs to make their purpose more obvious.

Hi.

Post 1 offers a new version with an additional ruleset that my wife and I are successfully trading on demo. The new ruleset trades long if DP is above WP and MP even if WP is below MP and vice versa for short trades. It also gives exact SL and TP positions.

Besides I should have closed my positions before NFP, it was a nice result for this week:

Explanation how I traded it:

The indi with default settings on my usual 10 pairs. Tthe brilliant mAPTM trade manager on another chart to manage initial ATR stop loss and take profit orders as well as break even and jumping stops. Settings are attached.

Every night at 23:00 (00:00 server time) when the new pivots apperared, I closed, opened or modified my positions according to the ruleset. With respect to the open positions, a little improvisation was needed sometimes. I never had more than 3 orders in moving markets and 4 orders in ranging markets (open positions included).

Every few hours I checked my charts for newly opened positions and modified their SLs and TPs according to the ruleset. SLs that were moved towards the price by mAPTM (BE and JS) stayed untouched.


Next step will be some testing with rules for breakouts beyond DR3,DS3. This happened a few times this week and would have brought in nice gains. If one of you guys has working rules, let me know.
