I've updated DMPlusSignals to meet my needs (yes, again...).
I noticed that with some bar types like range for example, you couldn't see some of the dots because they were hidden behind the bar, ie, the bar width was larger than the dot and hiding it...this was annoying to figure out because I looked everywhere in the code for the problem and it was only when I squeezed the chart and the bars got thinner that I finally understood what was going on...lost a couple of hours here...

. Now I changed the code to plot a dot above or below the current bar and not on the EMA so this doesn't happen again.
. Added a different dot color for when you have all the conditions including the ADX. So now you have a dot color with and without ADX conditions met but only for setup1.
. Eliminated (commented on the code) the entry lines so you will not see those plotted.


Conditions WITHOUT ADX:
// long EMA going up
// mid EMA going up
// short EMA going up at least two bars
// The Setup bar LOW must be LESS than or touching the EMA(5) and the Setup bar HIGH must be greater than the EMA(20).
// Force is green

Conditions WITH ADX:
// All the previous ones +
// ADX Rising
// Rising DMI
// DMI Green


Enjoy

Hi Braulio, lindo perro, agua portuguese?. Bueno would this indicator work with the new settings meaning the indicators after the webinar? I have read the threads (both) and also looked in the downloads section but I may be missing it. Thanks for all your postings.

This thread is not about the new method you saw on the webinar.

You can download them here :



There are already several threads about how to use them, I suggest you use the search button, find them and ask your questions there.

I have been trying to find out more about Perry's method. I watched both of the webinars and then went searching for the indicators. I did not find them in the regular or elite downloads. I'm just wondering if maybe they are available in one location or maybe I missed something. Also, is there a different thread to discuss his strategy?

Thank you. I was able to locate PerrySetUpV2b.cs. Is this the correct file? I have never downloaded anything from this site before. Is this something I import into NT? Are there any instructions on how to get the download into the platform? Thank you.

hey all,

I am know I am super late to the party but I am very new so please bare with me . I am new as they come but I have been absorbing information at break-neck speed.

I have been mechanically SIM trading perry's first method using 4 and 8 range bars; using the DMplussignals found here.

I only have an entry when both the 4 & 8 range have a signal within 1.5 minutes of each other; and there hasn't been more than 1 bar movement on the 4 range.

I enter at the perry entry lines formed by DMplussignals UNLESS there is a huge jump (4+ ticks) due to one of the bars in the last 5 being an outlier, in which case I enter at the beginning of the next bar.

I only trade 7:30am - 11am (ES, 6E, CL, FESX) and try to get only 4 ticks at a time, with a 4 tick SL ATM. It has been very successful but have extremely small sample size (about 8 ticks a day). It usually hits the 4 tick profit very quickly.

I was wondering if anybody could/would be willing to code the indicator to only show up on the 4 range when there is a signal on both the 4 & 8 range (within 1.5 minutes of each other). Even better if it would enter automatically via a strategy if there hasn't been more than 1 bar movement.

If somebody would be willing to do this or interested; I would love to post my results and run a larger sample size. Even if one creates the indicator but doesn't have time for the strategy; I could try manually trading and see if this is a feasible strategy.

cheers and thank you all for your time

Logically your IF STATEMENT is incorrect. Instead of AND you need to use OR.
You got your time range right however your performance is not right
It should be PROFIT OR LOSS either one but not both

This is your code:

if (ToTime(Time[0]) >= timestart && ToTime(Time[0]) <= timefinish
&& Performance.AllTrades.TradesPerformance.Currency.CumProfit - priorTradesCumProfit <= cumprofittarget
&& Performance.AllTrades.TradesPerformance.Currency.CumProfit - priorTradesCumProfit >= (-1*cumlosstarget))

The correct code would be:

if (ToTime(Time[0]) >= timestart && ToTime(Time[0]) <= timefinish
&& (Performance.AllTrades.TradesPerformance.Currency.CumProfit - priorTradesCumProfit <= cumprofittarget
|| Performance.AllTrades.TradesPerformance.Currency.CumProfit - priorTradesCumProfit >= (-1*cumlosstarget)) )

Sorry for the earlier confusion. Market Replay worked fine and no more order rejection. Entry is based on HH or LL of 5 bars (incl Set Up bar). Revised trade logs are too big to be on one page for both morning and afternoon sessions.

Here it comes a quick summary (performance better than the ones previously posted):

1. Morning Session 9:40 am to 11:30 am

No of Trades: 89 (2-contract trades with PTs @4 and 8 and initial SL @6. Adjust SL to 1 tick after moving 4 ticks)
45 x 12 ticks (4 and 8) = 540
7 x 5 ticks (4 and 1) = 35
37 x 8 ticks (SL @4) = -296

Total Ticks: 279 before commission
Commission: $890.00 (89 x 2 x $5)

2. Afternoon Session 1:45 pm to 3:30 pm

No of Trades: 64
30 x 12 ticks = 360
13 x 5 ticks = 65
21 x 8 ticks = -168

Total Ticks: 257 before commission
Commission: $640 (64 x 2 x $5)

Note to the Moderator: It's BETA and not good enough to be posted in the Downloads section.

You may not agree with the way I analyzed/interpreted the results. I'm certain that you will do a better job than me.

Beth
