here is my setup

yours look way diff


I can see a difference already. You have DEV set to none and I think I have that at ATR. I thought the method and MA were the same. I need to confirm. Thanks.

Vast ,

if you still like to use indicators you can combine jeff dots (i put this indicator because of your post on jeff dots in the AYN thread )

and maybe you will get more confidence in the setup


The jeffs dots look nice.

Hey Lolu, Ben, Cory and Vast,

The MASlopeBoxMulti indicator is missing a reference to the futures.io (formerly BMT)CollectiveMA indicator. I added the missing reference. Copy this indicator into the \Documents\NinjaTrader 6.5\bin\Custom\Indicator directory and recompile it. Everything should work.

-Rich

Ben et al: just catching up with your excellent thread here. Downloade the above BoxMulti with reference added, but it is not in the MA Case section. I added in

case SlopeBoxMultiAverageType.futures.io (formerly BMT)CollectiveMA:
Plot0.Set(futures.io (formerly BMT)CollectiveMA()[0]);
NTSeries.Set((180/Math.PI) *(Math.Atan(Slope(futures.io (formerly BMT)CollectiveMA(),1,0))));
break;

Rightly or wrongly. But it did change the output. So maybe somebody skilled in programming should check all this. Or maybe you have solved the problem elsewhere in the thread in which case apologies for any confusion.

Of old the skilled first made themselves invincible to await the enemy's vincibility.
Invincibility lies in oneself. Vincibility lies in the enemy.
Thus the skilled can make themselves invincible.
They cannot cause the enemy's vincibility.
Thus it is said: 'Victory can be known; it cannot be made.'

Remember CollectiveMA is VIP only, but without giving away that code, here is what I use for Slope in mine. It shows the slope of the last 3 bars, and colors them based on the average. You've probably seen it on my charts.

I'll include this in the new version of CollectiveMA that I will upload when I upload the new version of the Env Exp Fib Bands.

 
Code
                            
Plot0.Set(collective[0]);
            
            
double radToDegrees 180/Math.PI;
            
            
double _slope0        = (int)(radToDegrees*(Math.Atan((collective[0]-(collective[1]+collective[2])/2)/1.5/TickSize)));
            
double _slope1        = (int)(radToDegrees*(Math.Atan((collective[1]-(collective[2]+collective[3])/2)/1.5/TickSize)));
            
double _slope2        = (int)(radToDegrees*(Math.Atan((collective[2]-(collective[3]+collective[4])/2)/1.5/TickSize)));
            
            
slope.Set(_slope0);
            
            
Color slopecolor    = ((_slope0 _slope1 _slope2) / Color.DodgerBlue Color.Crimson);
            
DrawOnPricePanel    false;
            
DrawTextFixed("Slope""CMA Slope:\n0 = " _slope0.ToString("0") + "°\n1 = " _slope1.ToString("0") + "°\n2 = " _slope2.ToString("0") + "°"TextPosition.BottomRightslopecolor, new Font("Tahoma"8), Color.Empty, Color.Empty, 10);

Ben, just like me. That stuff looks like a foreign language. I guess it is.

I am also taken with this slope thingy (I heard it can foretell the future) so I digged out the slope code, the funny thing is that after all said and done it looks just like Mike's histogram

search word: MASlopeLine, Slope histogram

Cory ,

first i like to thanks you for your indicator.
i wish this indicator can foretell the future but its not

here is how i like to use it

when the angle is still up and price is near the futures.io (formerly BMT) MA i will be buyer and vice versa
but its really helpful in spikes and then i fade moves

here is an example

thanks vast

BTW do your bands look diff then mine?

ben

Here is my chart. I am on EST.
I have my bands set to my own setting. I have made Option4 = 21%, 38.2% and 61.8%.
It seems to be closer to Mikes.
I changed the settings in the code. Lines 193 to 197.

Thanks for the ideas. Will have a look at the dots.
Regards
