999 is a good one also, and its the upside down version of 66... er you get the point, don't like that number.
set your chart to 3 min loc, that covers the 3, then 7 (21) 8 (24) 9 (45) the 23 which makes 69 is too slow besides I ran out of good colors
Dang, you weren't kidding were you? Those do work pretty good. Well, what are those? Fib numbers? They all went bearish, but I was bullish, so I just waited until they went bullish and went long. Worked like a charm. I aint kidding ya now
If you had a nice price chart cycling along in a S/R situation. How long is the MA that looks alomost like the center line axis of the cycle compared to the length of the cycle? Does it look like using the crossover for an entry gets you a max of 50% of each long or short trade? What change in the ratio of the MA to cycle length can you make to get more than 50% of the potential between the S and R? What is the optimum ratio (of MA to cycle length) for making the most profit using the xover? Thanks in advance.
Use (S+R)/2 for this series. waht value of MA do you use to get a nice signal where the MA breaks up through (S+R)/2 for the cycle max (the sell in point for longs and the buy point for shorts) and breaks down through S+R/2 as the signal for the cycle min ( the buy point for longs and the sell point for shorts). Hey does the curve of (S+R)/2 look like it is as nice as an MA? what about those bands they do. Would (S+R)/2 be a nice thing to help them out a little? Oh how do you figure out S and R? Thanks in advance.
Did you see how long an MA has to be to become (S+R)/2? this is getting great. what would happen if you did a histogram of the difference between two particular MA's? How about the one thats and answer to the Q above and the one that is ujust perfect for crossing over it at the max and min? If we don't watch out we are going to get into convergence and divergence here at some point.
You found out that MA's give you a max of 50% of the profit potential and you found out how to use something with them that gives you 100% of the potential. That was fun wasn't it?
MA X over's will work in systematic trading if every trade is taken. Profitability will rely on outliers and the % profitable will be around 40%. At least one other filter should probably used. Good trading.
