Hey SignalBender aka TraderNumber7... been looking for you all over the net.

I have coded a few indicators to SEE what you SEE.

question on Rat Rules

Postby cosmoe1 » Mon May 17, 2010 1:17 am

Hi Tro,

The question I have on Rat Rule is this.

If previous candle closes green, the candle before that one was red, the current candle is above previous close, then retraces to below close of previous candle. Is it still O.K. to place a limit buy at close of previous candle as it is retraceing. Or just wait for next set up. I always trade Rat on 5 minute chart if that matters. And price just made a new daily low.
I always put in a 10 pip SL, and a 5 pip TP.

RAT PLOT indi on the top right hand corner

Postby tfg » Mon May 17, 2010 2:49 pm



Hi, Avery, can you explain how to interpret the indicators (in TRO2010_RAT_PLOT) on the top right hand corner:

Bullish 1 (What does 1 mean in this context?)
Bearish 0 (So does 6?)
Trigger 1.4465
Stop Loss 1.4444 (Why SL is 21 pip below trigger?)

Thanks.

The numbers are how many bars since the last signal.

Bullish signal was 1 bar ago and bearish was 6 bars ago.

If the auto trigger is used, it is set at the low of the 2 bars. You can override it by entering the number of pips for your stop loss.

GREEN RAT REVERSAL - LONG ENTRY CRITERIA: 1) RED CANDLE CLOSES 2) GREEN CANDLE CLOSES 3) PRICE TOUCHES HIGH OF PREVIOUS GREEN CANDLE - ENTER LONG. STOP LOSS IS ALWAYS 10 PIPS.

Hey TRO,

What is the "auto trigger"? I looked in the Rat Plot indicator and didn't see any input called that.


THANKS

If myStopLoss input = 0, the indicator will automatically calculate the stop loss.

Avery,

After I 've taken profit in a green rat trade, price goes back to the signal entry price. In this situation, do you re-enter for a second trade on the same candle?
