Paint Bar Comparison

Recommended Posts

I was goofing off today and decided to compare three of the Paint Bar Indicators I have collected to see which one does the best job.

 

By the way, I hope everybody made a lot of money today the market was really moving. If you had only used PB's, you would have cleaned house. :)

 

The PBs top left I found on the TS forum last night and work very well and sport 3 colors. A warning color was added that shows weakness in the trend or a change is happening. This is my new friend.

 

Top right is TTM Trend PBs. Bottom left are my old "Modified HA" PBs that report eactly like TTM Trend PBs. See ya later.

 

Bottom right is regular colored candlesticks. I actually think these would be the best thing to use if you could read them. These are for the experts. Notice these are always the quickest to call direction but give mixed signals if you can't read the formations.

 

If anyone would like to try the 3 color PBs, let me know and I will post the eld.

" If anyone would like to try the 3 color PBs, let me know and I will post the eld."

 

Hi Robert2167,

 

I just started a kind of exercise you probably have ended last year: comparing paint bar studies. I like this concept very much, because it's very straight forward, you don't place your trade against the trend and you exit the trade when the trend is over. If you could post the eld of the 3 color PB's I would appreciate that. I wonder if you still think this 3 color PB is "your best friend" and I am interested to hear what role the paint bars have in your trades?

 

Regards

Fredd

I wonder if those TTM paint bars are the same as John Carters work? If they are then I was able to assemble most of the squeeze system for quote tracker. Those TTM color bars are based on 6 and 8 EMA crossovers. Carter displays the 8 and 21 ema on chart, and use them to confirm an entry after a squeeze. They like to enter after a pullback to the 8 EMA. All of the previous strategy follows a bollanger/ keltner band squeeze.

 

I like the system very much. It looks decent on QT, I have the parameters if anyone wants them. I will wander a bit, if anyone wants to talk about indicators that generate market "squeeze" conditions that can be paintbarred.

    • Question: To those that had/have cancer, what were the signs that made you think “something is not right here” to make you go see a doctor? Answer: So, 5/25/2018, I woke up, got ready for work, and as I walked to my car, I started gagging. Like something was stuck in my throat and I needed to clear it. And then it went away.   But 10 minutes after that, I was T-boned at 40mph on the driver side door. But what made me see a doctor was while my muscles felt better and bruises were going away, the gagging still continued, I started having fevers, my neck felt swollen, I was having such a hard time breathing, and I'd have random sharp pains in my chest, but not from where the seat belt saved me.   2 weeks after the accident, I finally see an urgent care doctor, who looks me over, tells me I'm fine, but luckily requests a neck X-ray. And I ask for a chest X-ray, which he rolls his eyes but let me have (most of my pain was in the neck, so I understand).   The very next day, he calls and says “So, that chest X-ray shows there's a 4 inch mass on your heart and lungs, and your lungs have been filling up with fluid, as well as in your pericardial (heart) wall. We need you to come in tomorrow.”   Turns out the big mass, due to the accident, caused my heart and lungs to tear and fill with fluid, the swollen neck and gagging was caused by 2 metastasized tumors, and the fevers and weight loss were symptoms. Stage 4b Hodgkin's Lymphoma.   But thankfully, we went very aggressive with chemo (and had a lot of bad side effects that don't normally happen to patients), and now I'm about 16 months cancer-free. Yay lucky X-rays!

    • As a man, the reality of life is the harshest part. I don’t mind looking older or becoming weaker over time; it’s nature.   Have you ever heard that the only people who will be loved unconditionally are women and children? Men will only be loved as long as they can provide until they are no longer needed. It doesn’t matter if you already did your best to get your kids to the best school or get the best things for them, if you stop before they’re done with it, there will be no thank you. The only thing they will remember is that they have to quit school at 15, ignoring all the previous 15 years of life you provided for them. The only people who will accept you, no matter what, are your parents. But in this situation, you might be that ungrateful child.   EDIT: Wow, I didn’t think this would get so much attention.   For those who disagree, I can only say that everyone has their problem. If you don’t get the chance to face such a thing, be grateful. Remember, sometimes what you throw in the garbage is something that someone wishes ever to have.” – ElZee, Quora   Profits from free accurate cryptos signals: https://www.predictmag.com/
