One thing that would be nice trading with this, is to have OB/OS levels/zones to work with also.
Is that possible??
This was from the TASC article posted by Jimmy.

Code: Select all

void run()
{
StartDate = 20200301;
EndDate = 20210501;
BarPeriod = 1440;
assetAdd("SPY","STOOQ:*");
asset("SPY");
vars Signals = series(EO(seriesC(),50));
var Threshold = 0.5;
if(Signals[0] > Threshold && peak(Signals))
enterShort();
else if(Signals[0] < ‐Threshold && valley(Signals))
enterLong();
}
Looks like they were taking trades as price broke the threshold set at 0.5. If > threshold go short opposite for longs.

Quote from the article:

"Indeed, 5 of 7 trades in that time period(daily) were winning, producing an overall positive result with a profit factor close to 7.
Of course, more tests with different instruments and different time periods are needed for determining the real value of the EO oscillator for mean­ reversion trading.
"

This is a very promising coding of an Ehlers indicator. Divergence does a very good job.
I think this indicator should be equipped with master KVAK's BUTTON.
Many thanks

Added divergence alerts, also found a bug in the regular bearish alerts should be fixed in this version.

Hi mrtools, would you be able to put divergence arrows into buffers, please? So I could access them from an iCustom call.

Furthermore, would you advise the methodology for you to programme the divergence, please?
I have found https://www.mql5.com/en/articles/3460 to begin with now.

Any advice will be appreciated.
Have a great day sir, All the best.

This is a mt4 version of Mladen's Correlation trend indicator

As explained by Mladen:

General:

In his article “Correlation as A Trend Indicator” in May 2020 issue of TASC, author John Ehlers introduces a new trend indicator that is based on the correlation between a security’s price history and the ideal trend: a straight line. He describes methods for using the indicator to not only identify the onset of new trends but to identify trend failures as well.

Recommendations:

Ehlers describes a rather strange way of using it (like using asymmetric threshold for buy and sell, in which case it is clear that he was fitting the indicator to the chart - which is never a good idea, hence

  • Use 0 line as a criterion for a "trend" (short or long)
  • Use crosses of short and long values as a signal to buy or sell

As so very, very often the question remains (at least for me):
does it produce better signals than any out-of-the-MT4-box indicator
(because - if it doesn't - who is it for? Academics?)?
