Holy cow. Thanks, you saved me a ton. Where do I send the
consultancy fee? I did try the ZigZag Validity, but had problems
with the ZigZagSum where you add up 5 ZigZags. After a while, I got
so confused, I was zigging, the stock was zagging.
Ok, here goes another one:
It might be a bit sophomoric, but a good start for me:
Buy:
MACD() > Mov( MACD(), 9, EXPONENTIAL) And RVI(30)>50
Sell:
MACD() < Mov( MACD(), 9, EXPONENTIAL) And RVI(30)<50
The thing I have found in bactesting is it tends to ride the
declining stock down and keep taking trades that get stopped.
So, I think I need a longer term trend indicator. I was thinking a
MA of 200 or 50, but it seems if I throw that in, it relies too much
on moving averages with a EMA and the MACD. Perhaps a volume based
indicator would be best. Thoughts?
Thanks,
Big Papa
