Thanks very much for your very detailed response on Signal 6 in Chimera. I hope to be able to finalize the system with only one more signal.

At the moment I am focusing on 5.7.2 because it is what I am familiar with and because I believe it should not be left unfinished. If we have a version which is completely stable (right down to the TS!!) then we can release it for testing for profitability. I would prefer to wait until this is done before shifting my attention to P6Chimera.

You will find a question on TS in another thread, but in the meanwhile I am working up Signal 7, as follows (I don't think it executes properly). If it is possible for you to make it shipshape I would very much appreciate the effort. The idea again is to issue a false signal when the curve is flat so we don't engage trades that don't go anywhere, or else go where we don't want them to go. This is based on Daraknor's model for Signal 6. I suspect that both of them are misbehaving: they seem to reverse good buys and sells (making them bad) in addition to excluding them when the curve is flat.

Thanks.

//=====================SIGNAL7====================== =

bool BuySignal7=false, SellSignal7=false;

double UpperEnvelope = iEnvelopes(NULL,0,P_EnvPeriod,P_EnvMethod,P_EnvShi ft,P_EnvPrice,P_EnvPercent,MODE_UPPER,0);
double LowerEnvelope = iEnvelopes(NULL,0,P_EnvPeriod,P_EnvMethod,P_EnvShi ft,P_EnvPrice,P_EnvPercent,MODE_LOWER,0);
double EnvPriceAv = (Low[0] + High[0] + Close[0])/3;

if(U_UseSig7)
{
if( EnvPriceAv < UpperEnvelope)
{BuySignal7 = true;}
else BuySignal7=false;
if(EnvPriceAv > LowerEnvelope)
{SellSignal7 = true;}
else SellSignal7=false; }
else
{
SellSignal7 =true;
BuySignal7 =true;
}

For the purposes of the new thread here is what's cookin.

1. My focus is ChimeraX which is based on P5.7.2W with signals switched to EASY and a couple of signal filters. (no original Phoenix filters).
2. The goal is to trade once or twice a day max, no losses.
3. This can only be done (I suspect) if TS moves SL to breakeven.
4. I will move to development of P6Chimera when and if ChimeraX is stable and there appears to be potential for improvement by going to P6Chimera, but I can do demo testing with P6Chimera when it is stable. In principle, the ChimeraX signals could be ported to P6Chimera.
At least this seems most appropriate given the current status of both EAs. How does that sound?

A few Generic Points

1. You will find a question on TS in another thread, - Answered it almost 4 hours ago.

2. Use the # key to enter your code in the original format. Go back to post 51 highlight your code and hit the # button, that is what I did to it above.

When entering new code.

1. Copy the code from elsewhere.
2. Press the # pound button.
3. Do <ctrl>v

3. Post your code current code to your post #51 - you will need to click Advanced (Edit)

4. I am not up to date on everything everyone says. I admit some of it goes over my head. I just work with the latest code.

Signal 7 - more questions

What is it supposed to do.

1. If the price is below, high envelope buy
2. If the price is above low envelope sell

• It follows that if the price is between the two envelopes buy and sell are both allowed.

Did I understand correctly?

Priorities

If we have a version which is completely stable (right down to the TS!!) then we can release it for testing for profitability.

This sounds like a good idea, but I will wait for P6. Would that be Chimera or both? I think Phoenix 6 is going to be much more solid and safe for live trading. For myself, I feel inclined like Daraknor did a couple of months ago, to move on to P6 and C6. My personal intention is to trade with P6 or C6 in the future, never with P5.7. Work on P5 and C5 that help with the 6 version is fine with me.

This is a version of Chimera for adjustment by PContour. It does not compile and will not run until it has been fixed. The inputs are not optimized yet either.

PContour, I hope you'll have a chance to look at the filters at the end, as mentioned in my private message to you. You might also want to check the TS section to see whether I copied it correctly from your updated 5.7.2W. Thanks a million.

Since Phoenix 5.7.3w has the same code as Chimera 5.7.3w except the signals they should stay the same.

Since I'll be away over Easter I won't be able to post a workable version of Chimera until sometime next week, assuming all goes well. Will keep you posted on developments. Not a walk in the park, but an interesting challenge. I'm encouraged by the work so far, and learning as I go along.

Good trading to one and all.

I respect RSI and Stochastics, so I'm thinking this might be a good system to put into Chimera.

There is already an MT4 indicator that is all-in-one for the system. http://www.babypips.com/forums/free-....html#post3565

The system has a track record:

If we make it into an EA, we can probably adapt it slightly to other currencies as well.

Hi! I am looking for an EA that work on the basis of the indicator Parabolic Sar, but it has a Martingale system. That is, whenever there is a lost order, multiplies it for two. I leave here an EA based on Parabolic Sar and ask someone who understands programming, to change it to Martingale, but with the functionality of using the Parabolic indicator. Thank you and sorry for my bad English
