Excellent strategy here. Can you add stochastics? Or take the MACD-Stoch and add SAR?

I do not understand your request.
Can you give more eloquent description of the strategy you want to be coded.

Thanks for this strategy! I have an idea to make it a decent scalping strategy in the H1 time-frame. I was wondering if there is there any way you can modify the entry signal to wait until a 3rd SAR dot in the trend shows up (instead of the first) before it buys or sells. The MACD histogram requirements would stay the same.The stop loss would be when the SAR reverses to the opposite way. Thank you!

Hello guys,

I am a new to forex and this automated trading. Already download several strategies and backtested, but all give loss, but Apprentice give advice to tweak the strategies parameter. Do you guys mind share the item that you guys tweak/modify in this strategy parameter. Hope you guys dont mind.

I haven't given up on this yet. Just took a little vacation with my family and being a stay at home dad with four kids, time gets a little tight to work on this sort of stuff. Also, it being summer I have more work outside as well.

I would love to see your modifications.

Long
Sar < Price
Histogram > 0

Short
Sar > Price
Histogram < 0


On top of this?

Long
Sar < Price
Histogram > 0
Price / MA CrossOver

Short
Sar > Price
Histogram < 0
Price / MA CrossUnder

MM is Moving Average?
If you are using MA only, BB is unnecessary.
