DMI SAR Super Trend Strategy

[luigipg]

WARNING this does not work (as already noted nookie), often it open false positions in the sense that no open positions in accordance with the rules. It would seem to be a good strategy, please can someone correct any bugs? Thank you. Luigi!!!

Luigi,

I have noticed that on certain back-test as-well. I have been running an optimizer for this strategy for the last couple of days for about 500,000 runs I've gotten some good results but for very few trades in the year.

If you would zoom in to when the trade was given I believe its because of the last candle was headed in the direction of that trade and when the period open it probably was still there but it changed around during the course of that candle in TF. The trigger opens at the open of the candle so when you see the results in the back-test it appears as a wrong trigger but it wasn't wrong it just turned around on it.

I didn't write this strategy but from looking at it closely that's what I gathered. Thats why I put in a request for confirmation by ADX.

Ronald,
I do not think as you say, first of all I have tested on closing bar not on alive bar, if you see the previous posts you'll notice that the supertrends (for example) is in contradiction with the opening of the position already several bars before and several bars after. For me there is something wrong in software development. In any case, be careful. Luigi!!!

Hi.
Could you programmer this strategy without DMI indecator and without "count of bar" parameter and add Gann_Multi_Trend from here:

thank you! (and sorry about my english )

http://fxcodebase.com/code/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=3845&p=9400&hilit=multi+trend+gann+multi+trend#p9400

Your request is added to the development list.

I am new to this and have a question regarding this and all strategies. Can this strategy go only long or short based on the same criteria from a larger time frame? For example If I wanted to trade the 5 min time frame in only the direction of the 30 min time frame. That way most pull back trades would not be entered, a person could stay in a trade longer with confidence and could the close of a candle either above or below the super trend indicator be used as a stop with a second emergency stop if the price action got ugly going in the opposite direction of the trade.

Bump up.
