Re: [amibroker] ( Mr. Lal)Re: Jake Bernstein Momentum formula, AmiBroker Email List Archive

Kailash-ji,

Not wishing to start a debate here really...but what is the point you want to make? First you say that you can't be sure of anything. Then you mention a way of using MACD with ADX that works well avoiding whipsaws (so potentially an approach that works well and something that you CAN count on?).

No disrespect to your experience and wisdom - my point is that if we can't be sure (or reasonably sure) of anything , then how can we even think of trading? I suspect what you really wished to convey is that trading is all about probability and not infallibility.

Would certainly like to see the graphs and your in-depth explanation.

Regards,
Lal

Hi Mr. Lal,

Yes, I am sure of that. Well, after 19 years spending in stock market.

I have come across lots of 100% sure shots which miss at last. Amibroker gave me a way to explore. I have used more than 75-85 software and playing amibroker from ver. 3.35. Remember I am not talking about making profit. I am talking about indicators.

After all I found that doing lots of back testing, computing complex formulas produces the same results which u can get from traditional indicator.

For example. You use MACD. Yes it will give you whipsaws too and don’t tell me it gives late entry. But you can tune it a bit more adding ADX. How,

Make condition. You buy when both indicators are agreed. Now explore past data with these two indicators and find how many whipsaw was avoided.

Still you are confused?? Tell me I will write in details with graphs

Bye for now

"So, nothing is for sure."
