Good day Walter;

How do you classify this eurusd formation? What is your entry?
On 5min it looks somewhat better than on 220T

cheers.

Just a couple of quick questions, what is the black line with dots in, is that the 34 ema?

Also, have you already posted your codes for the signal vma and rainbow vma, sorry for asking but there's been loads of codes posted recently that I couldn't remember if you had.

Obviously without reading the code, what is the difference between yours and PYenners MT4 version, is it the stochastics element?

Looking at those last charts you posted, although it gave you a late entry on the cyan line, you're not going to get perfect entries every time, but I would imagine it will keep you out of more of the bad trades. Thats why I wouldn't mind coding this up and testing it myself if possible.

Cheers

True implementation of Vidya, as per the original Chande formulation.

yes Blu-Ray, I agree.
In reference to eurusd 05-11-2007, I am asking Walter if he would classify the formation as a correct setup; I am contemplating that if the setup is not "textbook perfect", chances are that the signal is not going to be perfect as well, and it is likely that the trade payoff will be meager (even for a scalp!). What do you think?

Good idea, Blu-Ray. Looking forward to your charts and commentary.

cheers.

Thanks Unicorn, I'll hopefully get those coded up today and go from there.

Cheers

Hi Unicorn... a good day for you also テつ。テつ。


formation there looks like a classic vmar icon, whenever you cross the magenta line and go out of the rainbow on first intention, followed by a contained pullback its a centrifugal iconic action...

about late timing with cyan line it may happen.... notice if you use red area exit, trade would still be working... cheers Walter.

Well Walter, I figured to use the yellow line vma(2,3,3). What do you think??

Yes indeed. Thank you for bringing this up.
The profit would be approximately 5 pips more, BUT you would have to be in the trade 30 minutes more and withstand a 12 pip range chop.
I know I would find that very tough; and I would probably exit the trade sooner on account of the trade not moving in my direction after x bars. : frustrated:

I will have to find a better exit.

cheers.
Unicorn.

yellow fast_vma( ema_periods=2, adx_periods=3, stoch_periods=3)
cyan signal_vma( ema_periods=3, adx_periods=5, stoch_periods=5)
red rainbow base_vma( ema_periods=5, adx_periods=5, stoch_periods=5)

basically yes; with a slight difference:
the last computation of signal_vma is sma(vidya, periods=2) (cyan)
the last computation of fast_vma is dema(vidya, periods=3) (yellow)
