    Hi Francisco,
    I love the Hangseng for is Volatility and you right to filtering with ATR.
    But in volindic you write (close)/close) It will always be =1 . mistake ? Missing [1] or something else ?

  2. Francesco78 • 01/16/2019 #

    Hi, no. it means theat it calculates the average true range on the close and then divide by the close. So it is never 1.

  3. FREDNC • 01/16/2019 #

    I graphed volindic with: (averagetruerange[periodatr](close)/close)*100 and ((averagetruerange[periodatr](close))/close)*100 . Addind parenthesis doesn’t change anything, Proorder propaly read the code. In a second time, I checked you code on the Dow and it’s almost good, just have to addap the range of the WF to find the good optimisation. So, It’s a simple code but efficient, nice job and thanks for sharing

    Hi Francesco,

    Seems to work better with tighter stop loss and a trailing stop.
    Will run this in demo. Thanks for sharing!

    Hi Francesco,

    Thanks for your sharing. I am not so familiar with programming, however, I tried to paste the code in Multicharts and error message popped up.

    —— Compiled with error(s): ——
    syntax error, unexpected ‘identificator’
    line 1, column 9

    Possible that I can test this code in Multicharts?
    Thanks for your time. 🙂

    Hi Nicolas, great and thanks for letting me know. 🙂

    Thanks for the strategy.
    I have tried your strategy on the DAX for a time frame of 10 minutes, 150.000 bars, give a few trades, too few to say if the profits are robust over time.
    I will vary and simulate the RSI- and ATR-periods for long and short trades separately. Also I will vary with the trading time, standard it is 24 hrs, maybe it fits better with trading time between 7:00 till 22:00.
    Thanks again for the strategy. KR JvdW

    Ciao Francesco, il Ts HANG SENG è stato settato con il metodo WalK Forward ? Ancorato o non ancorato ?
    Grazie

  9. Francesco78 • 01/16/2019 #

    @nicola onestamente non ricordo se lo avessi scelto anchored or ananchored.

  10. debs83 • 01/16/2019 #

    Is this strategy standing for DAX please?

    • Nicolas • 01/16/2019 #

      Title says that it is for Hang Seng
