Hey guys,

All I added was a one liner. I attached a picture of the change. If you want, you can edit your own MASlopeBoxMulti indicator and make the change.

jonesr,

But the Switch doesn't have the futures.io (formerly BMT)CollectiveMA option, so there is really NO futures.io (formerly BMT)CollectiveMA in this indy.

Ahhhh, that makes sense. Write down your settings of your current MASlopeBoxMulti indicator. Download the one (a few posts back) with the new changes, compile it, and add it to your chart, change the settings to the ones you wrote down, click apply or click ok. You sould be good to go.

fyi - I was thinking that you still had the other indicator in place. My bad. Sorry about that.

Hey guys ,

i know i said i will not trade today , but i did
i took less trades and was more careful on my DOM

i took 2 trades today which was counter trades and the rest was with the trend
as i mention yesterday the angle of the 34EMA (like the futures.io (formerly BMT) collection MA) give a good signal when price trade near the midline

thanks guys

Hi Ban,

Great result.

But I did notice some difference with your price bars to mine. See my attached pic (ignore the indicators). My times are ET. You seem to be missing a bar around 10.30/10.35 (9.30/9.35 per your chart). This possibly would have made a difference to how you drew the trendline. Big Mike's chart is the same as mine - link:

Also I noticed the 9.00 (8.00 your time) bar is the wrong colour - it closed down.

Finally your mid band MA is quite different to Big Mike's (and mine - although I am just using 34EMA).

No big deal, but just want to make sure you are not trading off bum data (or maybe Mike and me are - lol).

Steve

hey guys,

today i wasn't in the zone , made more emotional mistakes moving my stops too fast in the chop zone i wasn't sure if i am on the right side of the trade , i over traded today and will try to minimize my trades
maybe i will start trading 4 contract (still going to keep 2lots ATM) and reach target soon


so here is my trades

Trade 1: with trend trade
Grade A - Both targets filled (second exit at Fib target)

Trade 2: with trend trade
Grade A - Both targets filled , i noticed the trend change and the angle of the Mid line

Trade 3: with trend trade
Grade A - STOPOUT!, (still grading my self A , i follow the plan)

Trade 4: with trend trade
Grade A - Both targets filled (second exit at Fib target)

Trade 5: Counter trend trade
Grade A- Both targets filled (volume churn and reversal candle)

Trade 6: with trend trade
Grade F - STOPOUT!, (was too quick to enter)

Trade 7: with trend trade
Grade A- Both targets filled (learn my lesson from trade 6 )

Trade 8: with trend trade
Grade A - Both targets filled

Trade 9: with trend trade
Grade F - STOPOUT!, (was too quick to enter - lost my lesson very quick)

Trade 10: with trend trade
Grade A - Both targets filled (trend reversal took small targets)

Trade 11: with trend trade
Grade A - Both targets filled (trend reversal took small targets)

Trade 12: with trend trade
Grade A - Both targets filled (trend reversal took small targets due to market close)



Thank you all

Ban.
