The golden cross is a chart pattern created when a shorter term moving average was below a longer term moving average, but it crosses above that moving average. This is typically seen as a bullish signal.

The golden cross is mostly used with longer term moving averages. It's an especially strong signal when the 50 day moving average crosses above the 200 day moving average.

In the last 12 years, as marked by the blue boxes, every time we had a golden cross ES increased substantially. In these days the ES 50 EMA is about to crossabove the 200 EMA, will it be another Golden Cross?




Thx for the useful info, do you know the settings that some of the bots use on MA crosses?Ive always wondered until futures.io (formerly BMT) didnt have anyone to ask,lol....

Thx Again,
Richard

Thx Richard you are welcome, this one is pretty simple and you don't need a bot as it is very long time framed nevertheless you can use the crossabove crossbelow function in the strategy wizard

One tick and a target would have turned into a stop



Note:

Trigger signal from 60min, management from 5 min or 6range

We have a short signal which is about to turn long, I don't think we'll see S4/S5 touched (at least in this remaining section).

In my trading I am using multi level limit orders entries with multiple contracts. As I like to have easy and fast access to what I need, I decided to add some extra buttons on NT's Chart Trader. This is a modified version of Bukkan's ChartTrader .



The Chart Trader needs to be refreshed only the first time, If you save the workspace it will stay that way even after restarting NT. This tool is customizable in terms of number of contracts and ticks up/down from current price, it was designed for my personal trading, feel free to use it at your own risk.

The indicator is absolutely not CPU intensive, as the action is subject to the click of the button, nothing happens onbarupdate.

Please take note that at the moment it is not possible to link a limit order to the strat as mentioned in the video, stops and targets need to be set manually

The chart trader can be adapted to any personal use, in this case it is a vwap version. As the Italian Job method is about entering on the 2nd Vwap standard deviation, the buttons will set limit orders on the 2SD level, and +-10 ticks or +-20ticks below or above the 2SD levels. You can use any indicator in this case I used anaVWAPV38 (which is included in the ZIP).




If you want to set parameters with a different indicator all you have to do is modify all the lines with:

 
Code
Order o = a.CreateOrder(Instrument,OrderAction.Buy,OrderType.Limit,TimeInForce.Day,qnt1, anaCurrentDayVWAPV38(anaBandTypeVWAPD38.Variance_Distance, anaSessionTypeVWAPD38.ETH, 1, 2, 3, anaSessionCountVWAPD38.First).LowerBand2[0],0,"","Entry");
and set the correct variables.
