Here's my chart on top of your chart. Conclusion: Your histogram is closer to the charts posted by Prof. (My formulas are more off than yours, for some reason, although I got them from Proflogic's code in easylanguage). I'm investigating this further. My ERG is closer to the charts posted by Prof. (Your formulas are more off than mine). Therefore, I'm going to grab the best of each and make a new piece of code. I'll send it to you after I'm done or maybe even post it if I really feel generous with the insulting freeloaders at the time... JW
*yawn* Are you serious? Jack Hershey gave away stuff for free, but it was useless. Instead of answering questions succintly and clearly, he would prattle on with 2 pages of fluff that often didn't even address the question being asked. People would defend him and say "oh he's helping you for free you should be greatful." Please. Cryptic bullshit (99.9% of JH's posts) don't qualify as "helping you for free." It's the same thing over and over on these forums. Look at Anek's posts. Was he cryptic or did he give specific answers? Does he have a slew of people who are profitable using his method? Look at JH's posts. Was he cryptic or did he give specific answers? Does he have a slew of people who are profitable using his method? Information being given out for free does not automatically mean the teacher is doing any favors. GOOD information being given out for free does. So is everyone else on this site.
If you add a ZigZag indicator to your chart, it can help you to visualize the oscillation better. You can find an EasyLanguage version here: (#12 on the list) http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=146049
Prof, Your commentary and presence in this thread is welcome. I simply wished to connect with others using the method and not to outline or detail the method itself. To have candid discussions with like minded others without having to answer the why/what/how, can be very refreshing. It is not my place to discuss the "nuts & bolts" of it as I'd rather leave that to your discretion. Many here cannot fathom the sheer amount of effort you had to/continue to pour into this. I do not wish to steal your thunder, but thank you for participating here. Respectfully, El Guapo
Tim, don't worry about it. My better half was fighting her own demons this weekend. My son went to the inauguration and she was a wreak. Deep breaths, well presented flys and better days. Spring is just around the corner.
