Rename (extension) from zip to rar and open with a rar tool

Thanks for that. It worked.

 

Thank you, Leonid, for the trading signals and your description of trading techniques here and here...

The wood spread is seasonal. I will open a real one with them soon.


 

Commodities (October trends)

Crude oil inter-market spread, fuel oil - oil, HO - CL = 1^1.
Since the second decade of October, oil demand has markedly exceeded fuel oil demand and the spread line has been going down seasonally until the very last days of the month. Below is a graph of the multi-year (5 and 15 year) seasonal spread trends for December Z-contracts of these instruments:

However, you may as well use the current November X-trends. Just remember that the X-Contract for CL oil will expire on October 16!

Here is a graph of last year's performance of the above commodity spread during the analyzed period, i.e. from mid-October to November 1 (plot marked with vertical lines):

As we see, the performance was very satisfactory! Almost +5 profit figures on the CL oil scale closed as a result!

The current situation of the HO-CL spread is shown in the figure:

I think you should not be in too much of a hurry to enter. It is better to wait for reliable, obvious signs of spread line reversal downwards and then assess the situation for selling the spread:
SELL HOZ2 - BUY CLZ2 = 1^1

 

Eurobucks-Eurofunt (2:3) I am entering as a starter into a sell, especially as the oscillator is overbought, details on page 220.

Senk s, got in yesterday, will hook up the indicators tomorrow to monitor and control the poses.


 

Leonid, when working with yen pairs some nonsense is starting to happen with volumes (see picture). Can you tell me what changes need to be made to the indicator to get it right.

 

Hard to say, AndEv , why did you have this happen!

I've now loaded an indicator on these pairs in mt4 alpari and it's displaying fine.

I don't know if it is the server that has malfunctioned? For instance, the indicator takes those parameters that the server gives and uses them to calculate the comment.

Try to open positions for both symbols on the demo account.

Maybe we have different indices? Although their names seem to be the same. Could you lay out your own version of the indicator?
