7/26/2021 1:34:35 PM Thanks Ed, This is the latest filter which is lighting up SPY since May 17. As I said, : on Barchart.com the same up cross takes place on the week of April 5. I use ONLY weekly charts and weekly filters on SF and I have reliable signals usually. symlist(SPY) set{ratio, ind(SPY,close)/ ind(IWM,close)} set{ratiowkWma20, weekly cWma(ratio,20)} draw ratiowkWma20 set{ratiowkWma8, weekly cWma(ratio,8)} draw ratiowkWma8 ratiowkWMA8 above ratiowkWMA20 |

7/25/2021 10:49:31 AM symlist(SPY) set{ratio,ind(SPY,weekly close) / ind(IWM,weekly close)} set{ratioWma20,weekly cWma(ratio,20)} draw ratioWma20 set{ratioWma8,weekly cWma(ratio,8)} draw ratioWma8 ratioWMA8 crossed above ratioWMA20 by doing this I get a cross signal on SF on May 17 , but on a Barchart.com weekly chart the cross takes place on April 12. Where is the error?( Basically I want to see a weekly WMA(8) crossing above weekly WMA(20) of the Pair Ratio |

7/25/2021 10:19:55 AM 4 years later: did not pursue with this idea, in 2017. - Q: is it possible to gather several Pairs under a watchlist in order to apply , to all of them , the same filters? ex: apply to watchlist( GLD/GDX, FXA/FXY, SPY/IWM,XLK/XLP), etc. |

3/20/2021 7:40:00 PM My humble opinion for avoiding Pigs: I used to have 2 big problems: 1- discipline of exiting at the "stops" ( « A long term trade is a Short term trade gone wrong») 2- overtrading I solved no.1!! ( Inspired by Chuck Hughes's style) -A- only enter long in liquid-optionable- stocks in which 1 Mo EMA > 10 mo EMA and the 10 moEMA is trending up B- instead of stock , buy an In the money call : the level of the call should be the stock stop level ( I use the lowest low of the last 3 months); use Chuck's 1% rule( do not pay > 1% extrinsic premium; so it takes a 1% move only to break even in the option); this guarantees you 'll be out when your hypothesis for your long position is no longer valid( in my case , a 3 month low), if you lack, like me, the discipline of getting out. It also saves a lot of margin , simulating a stock with a ITM call+1%. Ex: your stock is at 40; your stop is at 32; buy 32 call( expires more than 1 month out) : 1% of the stock price =0.4: ideally, do not pay > (40-32)+0.4= 8.4 premium . * for No 2- I did not find a solution, but I try sticking to a 1-2 % max risk per trade /value of account + taking trades in less correlated markets. Maybe somebody else has an opinion in mastering the overtrading? |

3/13/2021 11:59:01 AM Also, Wisam, if you think you discovered America with this MACD divergence filter, without even taking a look at it, I can tell you right away: You're wrong. It took me years and years to remove all the complicated lines and MA's and oscillators from my real time trading . 1-The best thing that happened to me was to remove the daily charts from trading and only use weeklies filtered with monthlies. 2- as filters, a simple 3 week horizontal breakout up or down ( weekly Donchian might help) and that's almost all of it. Simple is always better. Actually, The BIG secret is the Size of the Bet ( money management), not the indicators. |
