Discussion of article "What is a trend and is the market structure based on trend or flat?" - page 5

 

It's all jumbled up. There's a lot of incorrectness.

It is fine that you are making your first steps in matstat. But if you undertake to write articles, it is desirable to adhere to generally accepted terms and generally accepted understanding of them, and not independently invented. So that the readers do not have tears flowing from their eyes)

Am I correct in understanding that this technique is essentially a "folded accordion" ZigZag?
 
Igor Makanu:
Am I correct in understanding that this methodology is essentially a "stacked harmonic" ZigZag?

No. A block chart is, but it is just a way of displaying information. Discretisation is not by time, but by price.

 
I liked the article very much, I haven't seen anything like it for a long time. By the way, there are 2 authors, both of them are brain friendly: a theorist and a programmer. They should also have a trader ...
 
And the market, it's fractal. Always trending and always flat. At the same time.
 
Igor Makanu:

No, it's a point-by-point discretisation, passed n punches, closed the block. Or should I say quantisation.

I am the author, Konstantin wrote the code (for money), that's why I mentioned him. But a programmer with brains indeed.
I'm more of a trader than a theorist), but I wanted to convey the information somehow. There will be another article on how to apply it in a robot.

The article is more for people who are not very familiar with maths (most of them), there may be inaccuracies in terms. If you write for mathematicians, 10 people will understand and the rest will pass by. But as I realised, the opposite effect has occurred. People familiar with mathematics do not fully understand the meaning of what is happening.
 
Maxim Romanov:
No, it's discretisation by points, n punutes passed, block closed. Or should I say quantisation.

It's still a ZigZag, with some discretisation.

OK, it's not crucial yet.

The question is this:

it has been known for a long time that the stock market is more trendy, but to compare just by the number of bars the currency market and the stock market, in my opinion, is not correct even from the statistical point of view - the total duration of the markets' operation time is excellent - it introduces distortions into the statistics. And I think the night flatness on currencies is a separate process that should be excluded from the comparison with stocks.

https://www.mql5.com/en/articles/8136 here I wrote about the night flat on currencies. There are no principal differences between day and night movement, only trading activity per unit of time is lower. You can do your own research by cutting night and day pieces separately, in the first article I showed you how. In the articles I left time altogether to show the processes more clearly. Therefore, it is correct to compare the behaviour of currencies and stocks within this approach. I specifically developed an approach that is universal for any market, because it is part of my big project, universal for any market. The global goal is to throw the robot into any market and it should start bringing profit without any settings. And we compare not by the number of bars, but by the number of steps with the size of n pips.
