Playing with the VMAR`s open research

Recommended Posts

Hi Shreem

 

I think Blu-Ray will be doing a version for another platform.

But I have not kept up with who is doing what.

Ensign did get mentioned somewhere as being similar to another platform in common use, so there is hope for an Ensign version.

Minister for beach chairs, umbrellas and light refreshments?

Secretary for golf?

 

Umm, other things are catching up on me.

Gunna cost me a few days.

Vma4 might be next week.

Think I have got to the end of chasing turbo now, far enough anyway.

It is like we now have a starting position to go on from.

If that makes sense.

Maybe not so much rush for the next stuff.

Yeah, scalpetic.

Think it will need another line, bit more slow and steady, so the trader can better judge the market.

 

Maybe do an addon indicator that shows a line joining Close prices.

Or maybe Hi Lo Close, 3 lines to show volatility coz the fantail covers up the candles in MT4. These lines would be on top of the fantail where you can see them.

But could get cluttered up on screen...

Hello PYenner, thank fro your reply. Happy to know that Ensign was mentionned. Hope an indicator for VMAR will come out some time in the future for this platform.

 

I do really appreciated all the help that you give Walterw in developping indicators for his great method.

 

Using already rainbow sclaping of Linuxtroll for some time, I see that the addition that Walterw is putting in adding the concept of VMAR is a great development.

 

Will be very interested to see the VMA4 next week for MT4. I will use MT4 in the maintime that one get created for Ensign.

 

Again, a great thank to you and Walterw for all the great posts that you put on VMAR.

 

Sincerely

 

Shreem:)

Hi Walter,

 

Thanks very much for these threads Walter. I really appreciate the careful, thoughtful descriptions you have presented outlining this trading method. I find the videos clear and concise… great visualizations. Gracious of you to share.

 

Special thanks as well to PYenner for the time and effort you have put in and shared with this community. Without your contributions I would be sidelined, as I know absolutely nothing about programming and am probably too thick to learn. I particularly appreciate the templates and indicators in metatrader format.

 

With respect, I’d like to post this chart with a candle formation originally created by “Goldenequity” and introduced to the forex community on this board… this post:

 

http://www.forex-tsd.com/suggestions-trading-systems/7914-randycandles-information.html (post 577 is Godenequity’s)

 

As you can see, he uses dinapoli mas and looks for what he calls waterfalls and fans… a distant cousin to the rainbows you use.

 

I find the RandyCandles (Goldenequity’s first name is Randy I think) a very useful visual aid and am thinking they may help here in timing trades. (or at least provide a great visual.)

 

If you find this post off track or valueless, my apologies.

 

Again, thank you both.

 

Regards

Thank you sundowner (there was a movie by that name many many years ago)

 

Your post is welcome and appreciated, ideal stuff.

Yes I have hopes of building in visual aids too, so it is timely.

 

As for being thick, yes been there, now doing it in public, <sigh>...

It has been quite a challenge and there have been many mistakes.

Much confusion.

But slowly we get there, with a little help from our friends, as the song goes.

 

Regards to you Sundowner.

Thanks for your kind words Sundowner...

Thanks for the welcome PYenner and Walter.

 

Here are the templates and a detailed look at the use of RandyCandles posted on another site by one of the contributors. Sorry, too lazy this morning to look up his name. Yes Walter, they are heiken.

 

Basically, Goldenequity looks for specific candle formations which he calls zorros and chili peppers (alert candles) at market turning points...your laddering, for example. The document explains in detail.

 

Cheers

Thank you sundowner

 

My view of what goes on inside our version keeps shifting.

The ADX approach we use has a problem with the horizontals lasting too long or even happening when they shouldn't.

I first thought the ADX worked in terms of prices, swings, but it now looks like one important part is effectively looking for long candles.

Long candles do go with laddering, but to have the length of the last longest laddering candle controlling how long the horizonal lasts is a bit single minded.

Trying to find a more logical approach, get more control.

 

Also didn't know MT4 lets you control the candles, that might fix our problem with the fantail covering up the candles maybe.

 

Thank you

One last post about timing a trade with RandyCandles and then I'll leave it to you folks to decide if it's worth pursuing. The difficulty with these candle formations is that the move following the entry candle (the candles following the alert candle) is sometimes not worth trading and I haven't sorted out how to know the difference.

 

These two charts are examples of timing trades using RC's. The first chart is a series of trades following the laddering that work very well as you will see, the other chart is of some trades didn't work out well.

 

Cheers

Yes sundowner

 

It has a lot of potential but that one major limitation.

Walters inspiration with the Horizontal effect is I believe all about just that problem and his use of 5min charts seems to help eliminate the less certain entries. But less sensible people like me tend to want to trade anything that moves, impatient. Quality entries are what it is all about.

 

Can I confess to being a bit phobic about heiken?

It confused the heck out of me the first time I tried to make some sense of it.

It was sad to see the thread on Randy fizzle out.

Maybe I am not the only one that finds heiken tough to penetrate :crap:

 

I don't know what will come out of this project yet.

But there sure is potential.

Cheers

Hi PYenner,

 

I couldn't agree more. Walter's inspiration about the HE is what attracted me to these threads. Brilliant really.

 

I look forward to your further posts and hope you will consider this brief digression into RCs as light diversion. I did not mean to shift your focus.

The slowest of the 3 lines is similar to VMA1.

So I'm attaching the fantail to that and maybe it will be ok on 5 min as well.

 

The middle line is like VMA3.

 

Not sure what color to make the lines, oh well....

If there are no strange problems, it shouldn't be much longer.

Hope it will be worth the wait.:)

Cheers

Peel a banana...

 

FantailVMA4 for evaluation.

 

Add FantailVMA4.tpl to the chart as a template (fantail).

Then add FantailVMA4Turbo.mq4 as an indicator (3 vma lines).

FantailVMA4.mq4 gets called by the template file, you don't need to add it to the chart.

 

Happy Trading :)

 

Arggh---

Another bug, will have to delete FantailVMA4.tpl

and repost it later when fixed

sorry yet again.

    • $AIZ Assurant stock nice breakout, from Stocks To Watch , see https://stockconsultant.com/?AIZ  
    • Date: 28th March 2024. The US Dollar Strengthens As Economists Believe The ECB Will Struggle To “Hold”. Early this morning, the Fed Governor advised “there is no rush to cut rates” and “the data within the upcoming months” will be vital. The US Dollar Index rises to a 1-month high. The value of the USD will largely be based on today’s data on economic growth, consumer sentiment and pending home sales. Dollar and index traders are closely monitoring tomorrow’s Core PCE Price Index which analysts expect will read 0.3%. A higher inflation reading can potentially pressure stocks and support the Dollar. Strong declines in NVIDIA and Netflix stocks pressured the NASDAQ on Wednesday. Though, buyers entered late in the session to boost the overall price. EURUSD The latest comments from members of the Federal Reserve are supporting the US Dollar. The forward guidance between members of the Federal Reserve is mainly not aligned. The Chairman advises the Fed does not need much more proof for the regulator to feel comfortable reducing rates. Whereas the Fed Governor, Mr Waller, advises there is no rush, and he wants to see a few months of data before determining the next move. Therefore, the upcoming inflation and employment data will remain vital and could even push back rate hikes further. According to economists, the Federal Reserve will cut the interest rate on 3 occasions this year, but the timing of the first cut is less certain and may change depending on upcoming data. A positive factor for traders is that EURUSD exchange is not witnessing conflicting currencies. The US Dollar is trading 0.12% higher while the Euro is declining against most currencies. The Euro is trading 0.06% lower against the Pound and the Canadian Dollar and 0.16% lower against the Japanese Yen. Yesterday, the head of the Bank of Italy, Mr Cipollone, said that the authorities were confident that inflation would return to the target of 2.0% by mid–2025. He also supports the lower of interest rate and will use this as a basis for adjusting monetary policy. The Euro is generally under pressure as investors believe the European Central Bank will struggle to avoid cuts if the Fed decide to delay their adjustments. The US Dollar will be influenced by four major economic data releases. The US Final GDP, Weekly Unemployment Claims, Pending Home Sales and Consumer Sentiment Index. If these read higher than expectations with the weekly unemployment claims dropping, the US Dollar is likely to witness further support. However, investors should note the main release will be tomorrow’s Core PCE Price Index. Traders are expecting no major news for Europe and volatility levels may fall tomorrow as European markets are closed for Easter. Technical analysis currently points towards a continued downward trend. The price is trading below the neutral on the RSI and below the 75-Bar EMA. However, investors should note this will also be dependent on upcoming US data. USA100 The price of the USA100 was under pressure throughout the whole US session but was saved by an increased volume of buyers late in the session. However, a positive point is the components held onto their value. Even though the index fell in value, only 28% of the components declined. Investors will now turn their attention towards tomorrow’s PCE Price Index and the upcoming earnings season which will start in mid-April. The price is now trading slightly above the Moving Averages but slightly below the 50.00 on the RSI. Therefore, technical analysis remains at the “neutral” level and continues to indicate a larger price range. If today’s economic data is positive the stock market can witness confidence and support as this continues to indicate a soft landing. Though, if the data is too strong, it could also trigger a hawkish Fed which is known to be negative for the USA100. Always trade with strict risk management.
