Hi, first time post.
My name is Giancarlo, italian, 63 old, retired .. some years ago i bought my Metastock7 Pro.. now i enjoy learning to build my systems ..(now that i have time..).
I read english language, i am not to able to write. I hope you'll understand my question.
(my first question. I tink i'll write you very often).
My knowledge of easy language is rudimental - i am learning!!! - so i beg for your assistance.
Mov(LinRegSlope(OscP(opt1,opt2,T,$),opt3),opt4,VAR)>0
This one is a simple, little system in futures. So we can write:
enter long: Mov(LinRegSlope(OscP(opt1,opt2,T,$),opt3),opt4,VAR)>0
close long: Mov(LinRegSlope(OscP(opt1,opt2,T,$),opt3),opt4,VAR)<0
enter short … etc etc
this other one is a second little system based on volatility:
LinRegSlope(Mov(ATR(opt1),opt2,VAR),opt3)>0
To unify this two lines with AND or IF i think it will be simple for you. I am not able.
for example:
enter long:
WHEN or IF ….Mov(LinRegSlope(OscP(opt1,opt2,T,$),opt3),opt4,VAR)>0 ……..AND or IF
…….. LinRegSlope(Mov(ATR(14),opt5,VAR),opt6)>0
(the volatility is positively 'high' and >0, so i think it’s favorable to trade...)
close long:
WHEN or IF …..Mov(LinRegSlope(OscP(opt1,opt2,T,$),opt3),opt4,VAR)<0 ……AND or IF
…… LinRegSlope(Mov(ATR(14),opt5,VAR),opt6)<>0
(here the volatility, on closing the trade, is indifferent if high or low, and i wish to tell it to the system)
open short:
WHEN or IF ……Mov(LinRegSlope(OscP(opt1,opt2,T,$),opt3),opt4,VAR)<0 ……. AND or IF
LinRegSlope(Mov(ATR(14),opt5,VAR),opt6)>0
(also if the trade goes short the volatility must be positive …)
close short:
WHEN or IF …….Mov(LinRegSlope(OscP(opt1,opt2,T,$),opt3),opt4,VAR)>0 …….AND or IF
LinRegSlope(Mov(ATR(14),opt5,VAR),opt6)<>0
(again to close the trade does not matter if the volatility is < or > 0..)
I don’t know where are my mistakes. I try to merge the two systems into one, but it doesn’t work.
If you can explain what’s the better function, in that case: ‘and’ .. or ‘if’ ..(or ‘when’..), or others, and you will be so kind to write the system in its entirety, i’ll learn to build new and better ones.
Thank you.
Best regards,
Giancarlo.
