Can you please post the same setup on a gbpusd chart or eurusd chart, as I do not have eurjpy data, and I therefore cannot compare your lines to my plot.

What are the exact parameters that you use on the adxvma and the Hull periods?

cheers.

I am just playing Unicorn, nothing formal really... but it looks very nice...

But being a noob, I am probably wrong .
Thanks for this ideas Sparrow.... I will do the cosmetics soon... It was a great idea of yours to put the fill alternative... looks really cool... cheers Walter.

I also need to see the price pattern but those rainbows make for great screen art...
Bemac used VImax=0.4 and I made the mistake of discarding it thinking it was a "nasty". Sometimes squares or mutipliers are appropriate to the maths and sometimes + or - offsets. So the sq and sq root stuff was just to see if there were other gains to be found like VImax=0.4 but so far nothing much.
All of the code has been experimental with constant bug fixes, it would be nice to get towards a finished product and no more fixes.

One of the problems with MT4 was the compiler really only does syntax checks, no real debugging or compiling and it looks like NT has a real compiler and the code runs a lot faster as well.

With porting the MT4 stuff, it would be good to get back to using the ema function so that "ema_periods" has a standard meaning. I often took shortcuts with the hand coded emas using an approximate "ema_periods" which confuses the picture.

And Sparrow, you are seriously fast coder

Thank you Walter.

In order to help in this vma research, I suggest the following:

Will you please plot a signal vma(ema_periods=2, adx_periods=2, stoch_periods=2), a signal vma(ema_periods=2, adx_periods=3, stoch_periods=3), and your new adxvmatest3(...) , on these eurusd and gbpusd charts, without the rainbow, and post them.

Actually my request is for two plots of each, the one with the default ma_periods =2, and the other with ma_periods=1.
To be precise what I am asking for is:

chart1
ADX:2, EMA:2, MA:2, Stoch:2
ADX:2, EMA:2, MA:2, Stoch:2

chart2

ADX:3, EMA:2, MA:1, Stoch:3
ADX:3, EMA:2, MA:1, Stoch:3

I can relate to that. I will be looking for your post with the charts that I asked for, so that I compare them to my plots.

regards.

Everyone working on this project, Have a nice weekend guys.
Unicorn.

Re: Playing with the VMAR`s open research

Hi guys,

I see the direction of the research has changed... great, it's a pleasure seeing what you folks come up with next.

Just to say thanks again to Walter and PYenner for the fine work. I'll be sad to see the research on MT4 pass, and though I don't understand programming, it seems you've found a better platform and some knowledgeable partners.

Great team work is right.

PYenner, I had a successful week using your indicators and Walter's concepts trading 15 and 30 minute charts. Thanks for all the hard work.

Cheers

Thank you Blu-Ray.

You have not posted a DAX chart recently.
Have you finalized your exit strategy?

Here is one. How has your ccivma helped in the trade management?

Cheers.
Unicorn.
