My personal favourite.
I'll let you work it out...
A building that looks like Hitler?
A building that looks like Hitler?
for newcomers to ASF and young traders who are being taught orhtodox methods, i apologise for my mess
it's a mess that works for me
so, here's a study i've had running for a while that i've updated....it might suit orthodox thinking, that is, it may fit more comfortably within ones own framework
for the XJO + todays updated and active trades....these are positions inline with a method to grab a very large zone play (to the downside) and the negative aspect is that i am short-only in this while trading other things in a more hands-on, moment by moment, completely unorthodox technique.....i've screen traded since 1992
currently, volatility is low and i am reading plays correctly, this is a very good period...soon enough volatility is going to pick up and my average win/loss will come back down...reading when and where is part of my process...for me...as a trader you need to be fully cognizant of your self and your strengths and weaknesses and each part of those is by growth and reacting/planning on the run with those parts...
anyways, onto the study and the play so far for the XJO, by the charts and a simply measuring tool
what cannot be seen within the charts is intent and positioning by the other accounts on the other side of my trades.....that, is the game that a chart can only elude to as a record of business and how the auction is being used

a trader must back him/herself ....and these are just words on a screen..... interpretation speaks of the interpreter in ways, they themselves, may not appreciate.....
price is not boxed by method
all everyone has are...... ideas
Not your traditional chart analysis, but the kind of stuff I look for in FX .....
Some daily divergence between the EUR/USD and the GBP/USD .... therefore looking for Long entries on the EUR/GBP
If the only input is as you have stated
Something is wrong.
It would simply get smashed.
Give me the numbers (as in print out ) and code.
You'll be using a code which has to have zig zag in it.
You cant use that for a trade systems test.
Zig Zag is dynamic.
Your past charts are set in stone the 50% retracement is set and the 38% move to it also
set.
When you try this real-time the 50% retracement wont hold like it is on the past charts
This is one of the biggest traps Noobs fall into when systems testing.
Sorry mate its just wrong.
Unfortunately un informed stuff like this gives tech analysis a bad wrap.
As T/H points out youll be smashed in out of sample forward testing.
GB got anything on this to help your questionable results?
I got nuthin'. However it didn't use the Zig function, nor did it reference the future in any way. Can't de-bug it.
Tell you what GB
You give me the code and if it's not a derivative of the zig zag function
I'll send Joe $500
If it does doesn't I'm sure you'll contribute.
If you referencing a pull back from a high there is no other way to do it.
Come on shut the smart **** duck up!
Just use fractal pivots to define major turning points. There's plenty of code on the net for free. As with the Zig function, you must allow 'n' bars after the pivot has been identified to avoid future referencing - it can be done safely. One way to do this is to have a delayed entry. Measure the distance between the high and low points, then apply whatever ratio you want to the last high fractal pivot.
The code you used where is that just cut and paste it here.
DO THIS, DO THAT.
I don't like orders much. Here: http://www.wisestocktrader.com/indicatorpasties/493-fractals
If you want to buy a custom code I had made for me which combines the fractals and Fibo (no buy/sell signals yet), I might consider that.
This sort of rubbish doesn't help the technical analysis cause.
All secretive voodoo.
As I thought totally useless.
You presented something to " prove analysis " and when challenged
Cough up nothing with huff and puff.
Me---I don't like waffle much.
