forgive me the question. I just got back to the thread and i'm completely lost. I went thru page 1-42 scanning what was said about the original 10.3 strategy, then (pages 43 to now) found things get more complicated (or "in development") and just got confused how to start testing the system.

If page 42 is still the most recent, tested version, how should i follow the on screen rules? I simply open the chart and place buy/sell orders no matter what time it is?I see Bob mentioning JPY open from time to time but couldnt find any explicit rule about it.

Also, how the entrance EA should work? Both 10.3 51 ma buy/sell any... and 10.3 ma but/sell dp.do entered the market instantly when i placed them on aud/cad aud/chf and aud/jpy (just to see how that will work). I expected one of them will wait for a white line bounce or something similar, but most probably got that wrong.

So, to sum things up - is there a post summarizing the rules that i missed somewhere? Could any of you be so kind and point it?

Thank you.
Best regards,
blazej
I reposted the rules just two frames before your post?? I dont understand your question? They have not changed. Buy when the open is above the pivot sell when open is below the pivot. The best time to set your trades are before the euro open and the usa open. ??????

effuvium,

It's practical if the numbers are right. Until then I work on daily, weekly, monthly separately in code.

I picked the daily pivot indicator I liked best and went with it, making needed changes. It didn't have weekly or monthly in it.

I'm sure baluda can easily copy my functions into his indicator when I get done.

Kindest regards,

Don

Don't you think more practical to combine these indicators in one, like Baluda's DWM Pivots, with external parameters to hide/unhide Resistance/Support lines ?

Baluda,

That's the indicator I was referring to, but had forgotten name of it. Thanks. Yes, it probably would be the best idea since Bob wants to use H4 charts, although no longer needed. If can use H1 charts to get DO, DP, WP, and MP (which we can), AND Bob can settle to using H1, then we can use indicators I'm making to shift bars. Either one should get the job done. It's just do you want to work with offline charts. But Bob would have to first understand why we're using it, and I don't think he gets it yet (for instance, when you take into account all broker day open times are different, then the simple strategy becomes not so simple until tools are made to bring us onto same page all traders, then yes its simple strategy again). I think Bob will need convinced first what the problem is and that it affects him just a little but others can be affected a lot (further away from GMT+2 than Cowboy IBFX is). But the simple answer is yes. I just have found as I'm finding in life and in this thread you gotta sometimes just make it work and implement it without people understanding, since something simple as I'm talking about is not understood. So that's what I'm doing.

BTW, got Daily open and pivots updated in one indicator, just need to post it in DailyOpenPivotSR indicator and post that one.

If anyone wants to see, I'm attaching pics that clearly show in columns what I'm talking about (hopefully). ALL brokers start THEIR day bar at 00:00 for THEM. BUT when targeting 17:00 ET on THAT broker, THAT broker's "day start time" is no longer 00:00 ON THEM, it changes. The numbers listed show ON THAT BROKER what time it is ON THAT BROKER at 17:00 ET, except the bar on Cowboy IBFX is using 23:00 instead of 22:00 (17:00 ET) on Sundays because Cowboy IBFX starts week one hour later than other two pictured.

Kindest regards,

Don

Don: I think you are confusing Baluda with Babalu-lu. They are two different people.

MY bad. I sure don't mean to offend anyone. Is the one in this thread the one that makes the indicator with code that adds sunday candle? I figured it was him. If not, I'm sorry.

Thanks jollyroger!

OK, here is what just updated at 6 PM ET. I don't know why it didn't update at 5 PM ET, since that is its target time and time it should update. However, it's not, so unless someone can find problem when I release update, then I think we'll be fine with it updating at 6 PM, as long as it targets 5 PM as day open, which it does.

But if you compare this FXDD pic with last one, it just updated. Last pic showed Friday as day to use for "Last day", and today shows yesterday as "last day". both correct times. I'm happy.

Baluda is the one that added the Sunday & Monday indicators code not Babalu-4u. Regardless I don't believe that anyone is offended. I just thought I might avoid confusion by pointing out that there are two similar coders.
