jalarupa, another inane question, got the indicators to overlay in window 2, but how you get the indicator in main window? Once again thanks.

Jalarupa, will you define TAC and SAC for us?

EDIT: Figured it out, with Smoke's interpretation, back a couple of pages. Thanks

gfg1,

That be the magic of Photoshop ;-)

*EDIT* I noticed that the same Zline picker can be applied to larger time frames... HOWEVER... the slope of the SAC's doesn't seem to matter in most cases...

Can anyone confirm what I am seeing here?

I missed a few, but there's plenty more in there :D

GREEN ON PINK = SELL at the Zero Line

RED ON AQUA = BUY at the Zero Line

These will help me to avoid those nasty draw downs... I hope it trades live as well as it backtests... ;-)

remember what I found out a few months ago : moving averages seem to repaint, at least the iMA function does.
I wrote a MA indi that showed 80 or 90 % accuracy of picking the next bar color, but the prediction bar (bar 1) would 'change' at the close of the current bar. which was weird since I used a 'simple' (sigma Open / MA period) MA based on open price (which does not change after the bar opens). I could not figure out why it repainted...

anyway as TRO said if you can quantify the signals (you may have already done this, I havent been paying close attention :)) it would be easy to code.

From memory the posts were in a similar vain to jalarupa's.

I wonder if jalarupa will get a mystery pm?
Is price closing higher or lower than something? Simple yet powerful question. ..MO

3.2 trillion traded daily, lets see / by the # of people that have grasped this concept. Hummm! Probably going to be slim pickins, for rest of us. It's dog eat dog boys. :D

I suggest adding real-time TAC. Instead of using the current high or low in the equation, you use the close. So, long RT TAC becomes Current Close - Previous Low and short becomes previous high - current close. Then compare this to the regular TAC. I do it again as a percentage. So, if you see a spike in the TAC histogram and the RT is a smaller percentage of the TAC. This tells you the you have the spike and at some point it is going to reverse, then if RT is 80% or less of TAC, then it's a good time to enter. This is equivalent to seeing a reversal indicator and then waiting for a pin bar. When you break this stuff down, it really is just 'quantitative candlesticking'.

This makes things more compex by adding more indicators, but makes it easier to define rules in the long run. This is a pretty complex system and we only have the basics. Once again, I can see why Bender gave up on trying to code this in MT4.

I hope this all makes sense.
