whatever the system is i would test if it suits me
for some time eh?
divergence is cool, but it doesnt work all the
time, whats more i suppose it fails generally.
what i found out is especially if the market is
trending the divrgence trading fails. but if the market is not trending
(terminology by wilder) divergence trading works.
my problem is finding out a solid indicator to see
if market is trending or not...
maybe a composite indicator i dunno...
superfraga gave a very different angle to my
problem. he said it is not important to catch the tred, more important is that
you get on it at a point and not leave early..
i have to think about it but still my life would be
much easier if i caolu find something to see if market is treding or not. :
))
whatever discussio we have we should preserve the
friendly atmosphere here, right?
cheers

Subject: [Metastockusers] RE:MACD
Histogram Divergence kit satisfaction
To me a complete trading system means that it is totally
mechanical and you take every entry and exit signal. I have not
found any "complete" system that works with
MetaStock.
However, while trying to use the MACDH system for my
EOD futures trading I have found several errors in it. Many times,
it fails to generate signals when there is in fact divergence; it
generates signals when there is no divergence; and the MACDH Exploration
at times returns signals that are not identified by the MACDH
Expert. Also, the documentation is horribly lacking and while this
'system' claims to be a MACD Histogram system, nowhere in any of the
documentation or in communication with Jose will he provide that formula
for the MACD Histogram
While Jose is a MetaStock savant, he
becomes a raving maniac when you point out the errors of his system and
refuses to investigate them claiming that his MACDH is "perfect" - as
is. That is, he believes it has no errors.
If you wish to
view divergence, you can plot the MACD Histogram (formula below) and watch
it for yourself. You do not need the MACDH software. The MACD
Histogram system is vastly overpriced, has many errors, and support is
very much lacking. The Walter Bressert system runs circles around it
and is much, much cheaper.

The
MetaStock formula for the MACD Histogram is:
( Mov( C,12,E ) -
Mov( C,26,E ) ) - Mov( ( Mov( C,12,E ) - Mov( C,26,E ) ),9,E
)

Sorry for my humble question but isn't that more sensible and
more marketable to sell it as a complete trading
systems?
