I used Miros ZZ tutorial to make a nifty auto fib tool.

enjoy.

added trendlines 3.26.22

What say you Sir?

I can provide the exact code I used upon request...and some time of me searching for it again...

Go to EABuilder.com and merge the 2 indis into 1 custom indi

Exactly as the title says. This is an EA to display when other symbols are creating a high and low of the day, as a text on the primary running symbol.

Theres a lot of questions that go around about how to use multi symbols properly. Take careful note as to exactly how I needed to do things to make them appear on the Primary symbol.

@panatech said in NNFX Algo help.:

Hello everyone, I am new here. I am interested on building an NNFX EA. Basically would like to obtain some sort of skeleton, in order to build and modify. Basically, it would be based on several different indicators (ATR, BL, Volume, C1, C2 and exit indicator). If anyone could point me in the right direction, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

Basically every attempt that most people do here are an NNFX attempt at an EA.

You are headed down a long, wrong path my friend I can tell you now. If you dont have a manual strategy, then you are not in the right place mentally yet. If you are trying to build EA's because you dont have the nerves to trade manually, you arent in the right place. You will fail at this as much as you do manual with that mentality.

Thats not to say you cant use random things to develop systems of trading automatically for you. Surely people here have done it by accident...but the reason most people fail at this stuff is because they are not looking at things from the right perspective.

What's the goal and objective for why you are here? What precisely to a fine detail and fundamental understanding is EA development VS EA design? What is the goal of a backtest, what are you trying to prove and achieve with it?

If none of this applies to you, carry on...but hopefully this helps you and anyone that reads this in the future.

To maybe help you understand what I mean....you said, I'm interested in building an nnfx ea. One doesn't exist, just as VP is a fraud. He never was a prop trader. His parents own a clothing brand and he works in their stores. He lost money when he came out with his series initially, thats why he's transitioned away from it. ...sry for the rant, but, heres what I think about when designing an EA.

Perhaps with this scenario based on X entry, and Z time of day, I want to know how many opportunities, or whats the sample rate of trades over 5 years that will give me 100 pips with a SL less than 20 pips.

i hope he comes here to upvote your reply @seb-0 and says nothing else for months.

This is my Tipsy Wisdom on how to properly account for the 2 changes in time through the year that we experience when trading.

The logic to the method is to:

1. get the month
2. check month number
3. sort by logic, if we are above or equal to 11, and below 3, then we are in the November hour. If we are above or equal to 3 and below 11, use the march hour.
4. itll pass conditions according to which is true, now to times for the proper accounting that you want to search for, for that time period, before finally modifying variables. For me, I have a start and ending trade window I used that changes by an hour on the start side, but the end trade time remains the same.
   

using this has its drawbacks in terms of visually, drawing lines does not accept using variables in the manner im using them because its a double, rather than a string as time should be. However, I can backtest and adjust time. so, 1 version for backtest, and it can be built different accounting for live running forward thought, with a slight change in config.

enjoy. hopefully of use to someone.

@panatech said in NNFX Algo help.:

Hey thanks for you reply and also for taking an interest to my question. You provided several points which I am somehow puzzle as to how to reply, here is my best effort.

1). You said that if I am here with the sole purpose of creating a NNFX algo in order to avoid manual backtesting, I am headed to long, wrong path. Well, I am currently backtesting manually, however I am also interested on automating the algo to gain deeper understanding of utilizing FxDreema, and also using various methods of optimization, as well as machine learning in the hopefully not too long future. Also I listened to VP's podcast about automation https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qgJ0yiaE-VM&t=1218s, and tend to agree with what he explained about technology and where we are headed as a society. I believe that in the not too far future, the presence and functioning of AI would much more pervasive that we have anticipated.

2). As far as VP been a fraud, I cannot validate or invalidate your claims (if you don't mind providing the source). I mean, even if he provided us with receipts of his accounts and the magical 10%+ annual return, we still would not be able to verify those, since these days everything could counterfeited. I also tend to separate the bone from the flesh when eating, otherwise I could end up choking.

3). VP speaks to techniques that resonate with the way I think, my background and education has been in computer science (was an avid player of the first computer game called "pong", and have been interested in computers ever since). Have also tried using Support and Resistance, Supply and Demand and naked chart reading and they all seem subjective, every so called guru implement it differently.

4). Ultimately, my exposure to different ways of trading, has helped me identify which one seems more natural to me and that is why I am here.

Not sure who you are or what your background is, however the forums should be a mutual help community, so let do it (help each other). Any further guidance would be much appreciated.

The markets are AI driven. I trade manually only for now while I continue to develop a greater understanding of how to manipulate dreema and backtesting for the purposes that I continue to need them.

I will do my best to help you manually, here is what I offer:

One of those 2 images in a 1 minute chart. index asset. The other chart is a weekly commodity asset. You would never be able to pick which one is which, unless you trade those with real money and you know what a naked chart looks like. These digital assets move in such a way that they intentionally put all of these indicators of price into alert, before going into another direction. They do it on all time frames, across all assets, every day, it doesn't stop. Just because an indicator gives you a signal is not a reason to trade something, just as a person who uses sentiment, its not a good idea to trade just because they sat down at the computer with a feeling. Price moves in all assets from liquidity, to liquidity. There is no other means. They do not move because of any mark on a chart, any trend line, or indicator. They will not stop buying when it is overbought....indicators indicate what the market has done and nothing more. They do not provide the reason for the market moving.

Indicators stacked in the correct configuration is not the key to most winning trading systems...money management is where the key is at...hell, with low accuracy trading system you can still make great money if you manage your losses well...as my mentor says, all trades entered are a loss at the beginning, so thats the only difference with any system, who can overcome losses better.

I would suggest developing a system to help you practice trading manually if your primary purpose is to gain a better understanding of what you can use Dreema to do, and improving your manual trading as a secondary output. I would avoid trying to stack 4 to 7 different indicators in a row with a variable in place of the MAs, and the stochastics. lol...I say that tongue in cheek...but indicators do have a purpose. A single indicator configured properly once a day, can give you a solid 1 time trade signal for the day for instance...

You wont hear NNFX talk about a objective. You won't hear my mentor or anyone else...but I think the biggest thing I've realized is you can ask yourself 1 question and design an EA start at the end that nobody else would be able to build one like if you can ask 1 question.
How much money do you want to make? However you answer that is a great base for how to DESIGN an EA for you.

You can alternatively use Dreema to get statistics, for instance, if I wanted to see...every Wednesday that the US100 makes a new low of the day and low of the week, if I long, how many chances in a year will I get 100 pips off that trade? What about Tuesday low of the week @ 50 pips?

@fxdreema said in Changes:

The Tutorials section was a mess, I moved 2/3 of the posts here in the Questions section I don't want to know what is the situation in the Bugs section

What about a community suggestion driven forum? Id like to go through while I browse and vote something to go into a proper column (spam, general, bug, etc.) If a single posts gets so many upvotes for a change by various individuals, its moved in the system in some way? or perhaps thats just the instructions without you having to browse and read it all yourself?

@cedietradermax said in MT5 Market Closed error:

@dore
You could also Add block on Gray dot to confirm if your EA Buy/Sell is successful or not.
(See Block 6052)
By Doing this you can circumnavigate the Market Closed error when Broker Server is not yet fully online.

whats inside the block?

in order to troubleshoot, I would also recommend not optimizing and just running 1 scenario on live backtest, so you can read the journal.

As with what has been said though, I have done many things to optimize and speed up my historical data searching;

1. terminate failing EA scenarios...i.e. if my profit drops 10% below the starting balance, it terminates the rest of the scenario from completing.
2. terminate EAs that dont create enough profit over time
3. terminate EAs that fail X # of trades in a row
4. never operate on a tick by tick basis. Always operate on candle closing scenarios, even for check profit settings...i.e. ALL ACTIONS MUST BE CHECKED ONCE PER MINUTE AT THE FASTEST.

@l-andorrà said in My first MT5 optimization on fxDreema...and the fisrt issue!:

@Ipod It's small. No more than 62 blocks.

the project may be small, but you are trying to optimize more than 1000 scenarios.

You shouldnt ever be optimizing that many paramaters. In my experience, projects that have that many variables are made to try to find a strategy utilizing data, and it just doesnt work. EAs that work are simple trading strategies that are proven to have worked.

I always use 0 (zero) for inputting unknowns. For some reason, whenever I try to actually type a color name it doesnt work right...only 0 works for me, and then I manually change them all to what I want and then save my set file.

check your journal in metatrader when its supposed to be trading. Most problems I have run into have to do with lot size.

@l-andorrà said in CHoCH:

That's the Holy Grial, my friend! There is not 'best way'. You need to find the better solution for your strategy context.

But there is.

you can make "comments" within each buy and sell block within Dreema, so when the trade is entered, is it given that comment within MT5. Each block can have its own separate comment

in the custom code block!
