Wabbit,
Thanks for your post which will let us know more about ACD method. Well, I will be able to have the book soon to have a look on it.
Well, the DTAFM / ATDMF is also a Bollinger breakthrough approach, similar to ACD approach, but using different indicators. I was told that they seem to produce same signal sooner or later when a breakthrough happens. DTAFM / ATDMF is a multi-timeframe approach that use "Triptych" (diving into principal, major and control timeframes, say 15min, 5-min and 1-min). One uses major major timeframe to trade while using indicators in principal and control to filter entry and cut loss.
I have the book on DTAFM and am trying to figure out a clearer flowchart to seek help from you guys to develop an alert.
BTY, here is a preliminary development on the entry (far from perfect), by one of the guys in another forum, under the platform of Virtual Trader from CMS Forex. The formula language seems very similar to MS. See below:
{Bollinger Bands}
MB := Mov((H+L+C)/3,20,s);
UB := BLines((H+L+C)/3,mov((H+L+C)/3,20,s),20,2.0,0);
LB := BLines((H+L+C)/3,mov((H+L+C)/3,20,s),20,2.0,1);
BS :=(UB-LB);
Outboll:=if ((UB>c and c>LB),0,1);
{Keltner}
UKband := Mov( TP(), 20, S) + 1.5* Mov((H-L),20,S);
DMA:= Mov( TP(), 20, S);
LKband:= Mov(TP(), 20, S) - 1.5* Mov((H-L),20,S);
KS:= UKband-LKband;
LowVol:=if(Mov(KS,6,S)>Mov(BS,6,S),1,0);
{Candle}
CandleBuy:=if((c-o)>((o-l)+(h-c)),1,0);
CandleSell:=if((o-c)>((h-o)+(c-l)),1,0);
{Parabolic SAR}
SR:=SAR(0.02,0.2);
SRL:=SR<C;
SRS:=SR>C;
{Moving Averages}
M7 := Mov(C,7,S);
M23 := Mov(C,23,S);
MH7 := Mov(C,(7*Per),S);
MAL:= M7>M23 and M7>ref(M7,-1) and MH7>ref(MH7,-1);
MAS:= M7<ref(MH7,-1);
{Slow Stochastic}
StK := Mov( ( ( ( C - LLV( L,14 ) ) /( HHV( H,14 ) - LLV( L,14) ) ) * 100 ) ,3 ,s );
StDK:= Mov(StK,3,s);
StDD:= Mov(StDK,3,s);
STL:= STDK>STDD;
STS:= STDK<STDD;
{MACD}
FL:= Mov(c,9,e) - Mov(c,19,e);
SL:= Mov(Mov(c,9,e) - Mov(c,19,e),6,e);
MACDL:=FL>SL;
MACDS:=FL<SL;
Long:=SRL and MAL and STL and MACDL;
Short:=SRS and MAS and STS and MACDS;
Buy:=if(Long and (OutBoll=1) and (LowVol=1) and (CandleBuy=1) and (c>UB),1,0);
Sell:=if(Short and (OutBoll=1) and (LowVol=1) and (CandleSell=1) and (c<LB),1,0);
Is that compatible to MS?
BTY, can MS refer to different timeframes?... I think "MH7 := Mov(C,(7*Per),S);" is referring to upper (or principal unit) timeframe.
