A little late here on a reply but thought I'd chime in. FX Moves in Ranges, and breaks out of the ranges for trends until it then again moves in ranges.

The following happens 95% of the time with this in mind.

At the top of a trend - or any time after you have had 1 pull back and a continuation.

If there's no prior pullback and a failure you've simply found a subsequent turn and the prior slow should be tested.

If there's a pullback and a continuation.. that pullback provides precedent for the next pullback. The next pull back will be almost the same in pips (magnitude) if it's greater than that, you are going into a range bound move. (95%) of the time. Do not trade until it breaks the extreme high, or the low of the most recent pullback.

If the second pullback is the same in pip magnitude, you're going to have a continuation.

The reason for this is volume and distribution. It stays the same and that's why prices move in diagonals and not round turns (most of the time +/- 97% of the time. When you have a larger pullback, sentiment is changing and volume on the weaker side is absolutely getting stronger just as the dominant side is fading.

I'm building a group of blocks to identify this with FXDreema. It's already in a Custom Indicator but I'd be glad to help along the way.

@TitanGeorge I'll share what I have when I'm back at the desk in the AM. But ty! And no, the picture is not me. I own a few mining claims so a long passive hobby is panning for the gold stuff.

@titangeorge said in BUTTON TEMPLATE:

Here's the button template. The buttons act like buttons, you press then it depresses. Instead of staying pressed (like a switch).

Simple change your button names and your conditions. This example does buys and sells.

@Pan4Pips Not sure how your buttons turned out but this seems to be working just like a button PERFECT!!!! Thank you!

Thank you @trader.phillips I just found it. Am able to read anything on the chart so good progress for a non programmer. I'm able to use DPA,SPA,TPA which are all non lagging macro to micro methods for Stat Arb.

@titangeorge My passion for decades has been the trading profession. My love, engineering transparency (for trading) AND gold mining.

@roar Ahh Thank you! I'm not sure if those are visible for me as I have to loop through chart objects to get the triggers. I'll put some focus to that though! Thank you!

FOUND THE SOLUTION! Learned how to create buttons in the process. Can you imagine I was creating TEXT messages to control my blocks. Such a hassle.

Any who, here's your solution.

The button didn't change to "Exit Rules OFF" since I made the program terminate itself. But it should work once you replace it with the correct ON/OFF blocks. You can delete the Pass button. I was just testing it.

BEEE YOUTiful! Thank you @TitanGeorge

I figured it out. What was stopping it was trade counter inadvertently. I'm getting the hang of how it works now. I was always spooked of code, reading it no problem. But I have had developers on staff for 15 years. Now I can thoroughly develop/test and implement projects before giving them the code to slim down and make high performance.
