Very Interesting concept. I ran into some similar situations before and I was able to work around it. It's great seeing someone making algo traders aware of these otherwise overlooked important details.
Thank You for this clarification. I had a slightly different approach on detecting a crossover. I was looking for just 3 or 4 bars back to see if the lines had different values compared to the current bar but your approach seems to have more signals than mine.
Hi Martyn, thanks for this series. You mentioned earlier about coding snippets. Was this just for the tricky extended crossover or have I missed the location of the other pieces of code please ? On another subject, I missed this series when you released it because I was coding a lot size calculator which took a lot of effort and a great deal of misinformation to get through. My code works for FX but I still haven't worked out XAU and XAG. Your followers may be grateful for a series on lot sizing ... Or have you done one ? Or does Darwinex calculate these for you from risk amount ? Thanks again !
Hi Martin, this is a great series, sorry I am late to the party. Ichimoku looks very interesting. Did you test the breakout strategy? +Trailing the stoploss along the cloud? If so how did it look?
Can you investigate the MFI indicator, entering long when it goes above 80 and entering short when it goes below 20, Ive seen some promising results with this.
Many thanks for the suggestion! I have added it to the list for consideration after I have finished the Ichimoku indicator. Note that if I receive a lot of requests, it will not be possible for me to cover all of them, and I will need to select the ones that I feel have most potential. Thanks again for contributing your suggestion, Martyn
Hi, for your exit strategy, is it simply if they cross over on the opposite side, or is there an efficiency criteria for the exit as well? Also for the KaufmanEfficiency, does each bar index in the loop need to also be above 0.55 , or just the most recent bar? P.S I think this can also be coded using a for loop once you specify how many bars you want to look back at, say 10 bars. Once again, Thank you!
Just a crossover on the opposite side. You should never use efficiency filter for the exit. If you do it could stop you acting on a exit crossover and then you are left in a trade that could be going against you for a significant period of time. For the open, I only assess the KER for the current bar. Hope that helps, Martyn
thank you martyn. i get alot of inspiration from your channel.

Which time frame do you use for your EAS
Please go for a new indicator. This ichimoku looks to be too lacking in terms of signal
