Wanted to get a quote on how much it would cost to get the Highly Adaptable Ichimoku strategy fixed. I am having errors with the TL/KL crosses and the SA/SB crosses. Anytime that a cross is about to occur , but they end up being equal for a period or more, the buy (sell, close position) signals do not occur.

Thanks,

Jason

Hello sqrrl99,

I am having errors with the TL/KL crosses and the SA/SB crosses. Anytime that a cross is about to occur , but they end up being equal for a period or more, the buy (sell, close position) signals do not occur.

We have fixed this bug and updated the strategy. Please re-download the Highly Adaptable Ichimoku strategy here:

thankyou!

I just deleted the old strategy and uploaded the new one and it is not working. I uploaded a screenshot to show you what I mean.

Thanks,

Hello Jason,
We should investigate this issue, I will let you know about the result.
Thank you for understanding.

Any luck here? I don't know much about coding, but it seems like a small problem with the formula. Something like the crossover needs to be defined as when TL <or= KL, then TL > KL...you buy. Right now, the equals part must be missing. Hope you can find something.

Thanks,

Jason

I dont know if this helps you, but every ichimoku strategy and signal on here that I have tried has this same problem.

Hello Jason,

Thank you for your comments.
We are working on it right now. As soon as we find a solution I will let you know.

Hi Jason,

Just to explain to you the challenges here. Normally we are considered with when lines cross each other or a particular value. So let's say we want to know when indicator I crosses value V.

Assuming t = time, imagine the following scenario
T=1: V=10, I = 13
T=2: V=10, I = 11
T=3: V=10, I = 9
T=4: V=10, I = 7

We can see in the above that I crossed V ... but when did it happen? How do we identify a cross?

If the logic to identify a cross is simply:
- Previous value was > V
- Current value is < V
Then the logic will pass on the above, but fail on the following example.
T=1: V=10, I = 12
T=2: V=10, I = 11
T=3: V=10, I = 10
T=4: V=10, I = 9
T=5: V=10, I = 8

However, if we change the logic to say:
- Previous value was >= V
- Current value is <= V
Then the logic will pass on the above, but fail on the following example.
T=1: V=10, I = 12
T=2: V=10, I = 11
T=3: V=10, I = 10
T=4: V=10, I = 10
T=5: V=10, I = 11

However, if we change the logic to say:
- Previous value was >= V
- Current value is < V
Then the logic will pass on the above scenarios, but fail on the following example.
T=1: V=10, I = 8
T=2: V=10, I = 9
T=3: V=10, I = 10
T=4: V=10, I = 10
T=5: V=10, I = 9

and for indicators that can keep the same value for a while, the problem actually looks like this.
T=1: V=10, I = 8
T=2: V=10, I = 9
T=3: V=10, I = 10
T=4: V=10, I = 10
T=5: V=10, I = 10
T=6: V=10, I = 10
T=7: V=10, I = 10
T=8: V=10, I = 9
T=9: V=10, I = 8

So you can try to look further and further back but it just shifts the problem. So as you can see, it isn't quite that easy.
