@l-andorrà

?

No this was examples of ATR Stop loss.

I simply would like to filter small noise from Heiken Ashi, therefore the ATR Trailing Stop.

Can it be tracked that price returned with momentum.

@jstap

Ok got it, thx mate

@jstap

ok, kinda understand this, but do i need to use the value > 0 anyway for heiken ashi for condition block?

Just would like to keep it simple like in indicator is visible like Bull candle, previous candle where to get from.

@jstap

Hi,

by returned you mean the "is>" right?

Just simply looking for entry that previous Candle Candle ID 1 was Heiken Ashi Bearish and current Candle 0 is Bullish as well and vise versa for sell.

When using indicator is visible always got the problem the trades was opended in both directions and been told by other user to use conditions block.

Hi,

did use Heiken Ashi by " indicator is visible" as entry before, but got both buy and sell trades opended. Got told to use condition block instead.
Tried multiple approach but now bot doesnt open any trades.
Somebody got any idea why?

Did use example from Fx dreema examples page:

Thx

That price reverses through the line where ATR Stop Sl would normally follow.

Due to Supply and demand principle, e.g. for buy when trending a market retraces because of lag of buyers, there it retraces back to last demand level and then pushes further.
If there arent enough buy available if might go lower.
dont want the SL to follow direct below current price because doesnt let market breath enough.
Sort of like Parabolic Sar that opposite dot appear, but found that it lags due to candle close,
to wait for candle close below would be to late,
often when momentum shifts then trade should be closed, because reversal might appear soon.

Hi,

need help for trade mgnt settings.
Thank you.
would like to have Stop Loss move to Breakeven at 1:2 RR and stay there but that Stop is cut if ATR trailing stop is broken and Heiken Ashi color has changed.
This would help to filter small color changes in Heiken Ashi, even though if trade momentum is still valid.

@l-andorrà

Does the ATR trailing work for break like in the example, but that Stop after at break even it remains there?

@l-andorrà

Did test it only medium higher time frame like 30 min other than 5 or 15 min or larger like 1 h. The lagging is ok within the signal of heiken ashi.

@l-andorrà

Lets get rich together mate

No doesnt have to be holy grail, but what i've found from talking with professional traders and institutionals, there is only 2 market cycles. Range- >trend.

Range often appears in lower volatility when instituionals are building positions or taking profit by decreasing position.

Did you Volume trading before as well.
It is when market is held by limit orders in range that they can build position by market orders. Orderflow. Like a collective process.

Stopped using it, because shiftet away from futures trading to forex, because of algorithm trading.

From talking with pro traders, know that Di crossing from ADX is one of the best indicators to show that one side is taking over.
Bullish/ Bearish momentum.
Working pretty good.

Unfortunately found that if market is tight, there is still some crossing.
But it gives way better indication that breakout might appear, because only larger players can move orderflow in their favor.

Looking for an alternative like Aaron indicator that other like range bound indicators/ oversold/ overbought help detect range or trend strenght.

Found that all indicators with 50 level 80/20 level like stochastic, like 50 level crossing of lead to false signals in consolidation.

Did test it, even though al indicators lag a bit, which is ok due to to a certain point but was very lagging
But did like the idea of it thoug.

@ambrogio

yes you're right.
Have watched YT video about this.

Only thing i found is important for heiken ashi trading, that there is momentum increasing.

Doji Candles can often appear after a trend has startet and then market starts consolidating.

Might be that big players are taking profit or building up new positions as well to keep momentum stable.

But anyway, have found that you only need something to provides there is increasing momentum started.
Therefore did started using Di crossing.
But still not perfect when market is consolidating.

@l-andorrà

Hi,

have changed system away from Bollinger bands entirely,

have closed this thread, please only have a look a look at newer ones for Heiken Ashi and ADX

@ambrogio

yes, currently testing different projects, if you mean this.
my main system is heiken ashi.
Found from backtesting to that market not always give opportunity to wait for entire Heiken Ashi to form for entry.
For example if bullish, the color of candle like blue for bullish changes within the momentum shift.

Did use it solo for entry and exit, but found that Heiken ashi, because in fxdreema you can not select if heiken ashi candle is "Doji" or trend that it needs something that helps to prevent range or consolidation conditions.
Therefore the Di crossing.

Been told by professional trader that institutionals make the crossing for DI, it is one of the best indicators, due to large capital/ market orders.

@ambrogio

Did use flags before in other projects but doesnt seem to work that good.
Got the suggestion from @l-andorrà to use varibales instead.

I did use it for bollinger bands before.
There it was upper and lower band, a single line as the varibale.
like BBup 0,
BB Down

for a on chart indicator.

Because ADX is a custom price fraction indiactor, how does this apply for a crossing of those lines?

@jstap

Great, so this structure is enough then.

Thank you for your help.

Hi,

currently testing approaches for open trade to close either by Heiken Ashi or ATR Trailing Level.

thank you.

Because Heiken Ashi sometimes only takes little break and give fakeout exit when trending but setup would still be valid, would like to use combination of both Heiken Ashi and ATR SL.

In picture i use an indicator for ATR SL Exit with 1.5 multiplier. orange and pink lines.
Please use only as guideline idea, might be repainting.

In the other picture red and green lines are other indicator for ATR Stop loss calculation.

I've trailing stop feature in fx dreema, but dont want the actual stop loss to trail after price, but rather if the level where ATR SL would be at the moment, if it is broken by price to close by opposite Heiken Ashi Candle.

@jstap

Thank you.

So the ornage Trade Count +1 is correct as well right?

Do i need to maintain the pass and turn on off blocks like before or does it reallocate now byitself because of your settings of "daily"?

@jstap

You mean like this?

Could you please mark on picture, seem not to understand what you mean.

Thank you

@ambrogio

Yes, found from testing, that Heiken Ashi Candle for entry signal often forms within same candle. Candle 0.

Would you recommend using Candle ID 1 for previous candle instead anyway?

Does it work to look for Candle ID 1 as " level candle" like the High as reference at in current candle if market pullbacks, rejects and then in the moment it moves back down the Heiken ashi forms it would enter with the momentum?

Have noticed that often market doesnt retraces for another candle to form, somestimes it does.

Might be a good compromise to have a signal but also ensure to be in the trade.

@ambrogio

Hi currently i'm using Di + Di-/ ADX crossing as my main entry trigger.

Yes buy now/ sell now for market order would enough, trading Euro USD, very liquid market, therefore have found any signifcant slippage yet, to use pending order.

Found from backtesting that candle of heiken ashi often forms within this crossover, therefore doesnt have to retrace to the absolute again low for a buy for instance.

Only thing is that it doesnt open trade way to late, sort of like chasing price.

Please have a look at graphic attached.

Market needs to pullback. Then when candle moves in opposite direction and Di trigger happended then it should be enter, which Heiken Ashi Color changes.

What i found from testing, that market needs to have enough space for 1 retracement, if it likes.

Using the ATR for Sl placement, but based on the calculation it be at good average price to maintain space for stop loss when triggered.
Therefore even if it retraces back, because entry is not at lowest point of the candle range for sell for instance, probability is higher that it dont overseeds the previous high and not more unlikely to arrive at stop loss level.

Also dont want to have massive ATR multiplier SL, because then bot decreases lot size based on calculation to low.

Found from testing that ATR of 1.5 is more than enough for Euro USD.

When this would happended trade idea isnt valid any more.
