Big Joe:
Yes Valeo, you need more ram.

Concerning the ram issues, it depends if your metatrader have thousands charts opened

No, more seriously there's some indicators that are consuming some ram and some processor.

Valeo, at least buy 1 more giga ram (it costs nothing nowadays), and see if it changes something. If it changes nothing time to buy an another computer

Thanks for the advise. Will get some tomorrow and let you know next week. Have a great weekend - I will be here sometime during the day though.

 
Big Joe:
Look what metatrader tells me when i'm on vista on my laptops :

The only way i have to metatrader not crash is to let the metatrader installs clean, if i add one custom indicator :BADABOOM !

Call stack :

If your MT4 crashes due to adding a bad indicator, you may try to delete(or just rename in case you can restore it) the following file:

c:\program files\metatrader4\profiles\lastprofile.ini

Restart MT4, and create your new profile and indi from scratch.

 
ValeoFX:
Interesting comment regarding the CCi.................."for a while" (Hope the "while" will not drain your resources my friend). The CCi-5 on the charts shows perfect re-entries that you cannot see any other way and I will show you many examples of that. Also, the position towards overheating is crucial to see, hence my comments up front that I will never trade without it ever again. Personally I think you are a very brave man. I just hope that not too many Newbies follow you in this way of thinking?

I had the PriceChannelStop made by iGor as I was intrigued by it, but my application for it was very different from what it was intended for. In the end I realised that it was not adding any value to my trading and dropped it. Be interesting to hear your thoughts by month end.

Best wishes,

Dear Valeo,

The cci is back on my charts for the very reason you stated!! I got tempted to look at more than my usual 2-3 charts I follow, so was tempted to just rely on the signals as appeared, along with of course the bars etc.

Anyhow, I found that rather than gain more opportunities, I was missing trades, so I'm bak to trading just GU and EU (still can't resist the occassional look at EJ, but its now very very occasional!).

Have a favour to ask. I've been trying to read more on ICWR, going through the tsd threads there is mention of a pdf document on trading with ICWR, but it seems to be taken off. Also came across a website that described it, but the images were gone, so a bit difficult to follow.

I just wondered if anybody could point me towards the right direction, or if you have a document on it - I'd like to understand this a bit more than I currently do.

Will let you know how the price channel stop works out.

And of course, a happy new year to you and the family.

Kind regards

Pardy

 

Thanks Dyeung, but that's not working

I would like to thanks all guys for the impressive brainstorming here, on the latests weeks, it seems we have make a lot of progress :CHIMP.

I will try to resolve my computers problem during the weekend, i hope to be back and post some charts next week.

Hopefully i have several computers, you see here the necessity of this, my trading and my charting computers are working great under XP, and i will just change the motherboard and processors one day, but not buying this SHIT OF VISTA.

Have a great weekend all

I have not had any problems ruining on VISTA. You need min 3G of RAM though. VISTA themselves are power and RAM hungry.

I do not know if you have this in mind, but if you are thinking of "downgrading" VISTA to XP, make sure the PC components will run on XP. Some of the latest parts do not work on anything other than VISTA.

Have a nice weekend!

 
ValeoFX:
I agree with regards to "cycle swing" and that is how I use it predominantly - good to know when the cycle is exhausted once you have taken everything else into consideration. It is NOT the panacea guys, I am just trying to find something that will help me making an infomed decision whether I can close out the trade or start looking for a retrace.

When you combine it with the J_RSX_Turbo, you have an awesome combination it seems. Its all about turning points for me.

I think we have "nailed" the entries, all we must do now is to maximise our profits and that is why I like what Dyeung is trying to do.

Good profits today lets keep it up next week.

Why is it J_RSX_Turbo not simple SMA-10 over the Chimp2 indicator? Maybe this is something I don't see in my chart. Can you post this indi for me to try to visualize what you see?

Do you use chimp zero line cross for re-entry?

thanks and regards,

dyeung

Call stack :

Maybe you don't have in indicators folder that indicator what this custom indicator call out.

Example: (MA_WPR_Alltf needs W%R_MA_LC, without that it hangs/crash when you add MA_WPR_Alltf on chart)

Go to C:\Program Files\MetaTrader\experts\indicators folder and when you find "custom indicator".log file then this indicator doesn't work properly.

Correctly working indicators doesn't create logs files in that folder.

After Terminal crash/hang, there is one solution:

1.Close terminal.exe

2.Cut all indicators from C:\Program Files\MetaTrader\experts\indicators to new Folder

3.Start terminal.exe and close all open charts and then close terminal.exe

4.Delete all log files from

C:\Program Files\MetaTrader\experts\logs

and

C:\Program Files\MetaTrader\logs

("Bad log" files take a lot memory)

5.Cut indicators back to C:\Program Files\MetaTrader\experts\indicators folder and start terminal.exe

The less indicators you have in C:\Program Files\MetaTrader\experts\indicators folder the less memory it takes

Maybe it helps

I had that document and will see if I can locate it for you. However, IF you can read Fibs, you don't need the document anyway - all you have to do is set the number of pips on 100 for M5 and 400 for H1 and up, but you may want to adjust the settings on higher TFs according to what you want to see.

Thanks for the good wishes, much appreciated.

Yes, I do use the zero-line cross for re-entries and sometimes even entries depending on the RSI and CCi-readings.

I am posting the J_RSX_Turbo here for you guys to try. Keep me in the loop, please.

Best wishes always.

BTW, I have an extra 1Gig RAM in and it looks pretty much of an improvement, but the charts are not running so I will let you know through the week. Much apppreciate your help.

Thanks, I also searched this forum for turbo rsx indicators and run a "competition" among turbo rsx, chimp, BB-rsi and cci.

cci use settings 40,20, rsx and BB-rsi run a period of 7.

Each indicator is just a math transform in certain way from the price action, you'll see the up and down movement are so similar!

It seems stoc-rsi and cci are the winners as it lead 1 bar before turbo rsx or chimp cross the zero line, but turbo rsx and chimp shows a smoother curve and less whipsaw. In some case only chimp shows re-entry signal , however, see another picture.
