Strategy with regression channels

[Alberto Moreno]

Hello Paul
Regarding question 2, the Bar Size, I'm trying to set High and Low from column left and the Low from the Parameters - Offset but I get (High[0] + Low[0]) instead of (High[0] - Low[0])
From where do I apply the /TickSize ?
And the BarSize where do I get it from the 2nd column? I have created a predefined value BarSize 6 but when selecting this in the 2nd column it doesn't work.

I attach image of what I have done. Which would be the options from the columns to set this bar size?

And regarding de question 3, yes, when the 2 channels are rising and the 50% wick candle is pointing upwards, I would enter long. And when the 2 channels are falling and the 50% wick candle is pointing downwards, I would enter short.

Regarding question 5, when the price gets to 1 tick bellow that wick candle I would enter short or 1 tick above that wick candle I would enter long. That means that I wouldn't enter with these signal 50% wick candles, but I would have to wait until the price reached that 1 tick above or bellow the candle. And it would have to be a maximun of 20 bars after the signal wick bar. If it was the 21, it woud not trigger the entry and the strategy woud wait for the following signal 50% wick bar.

Thank you very much for the help

Hello Alberto,

Thanks for your reply.

Regrettably to accomplish your goal you will need to work directly with coding as the strategy wizard is somewhat limiting this application as you have observed.

You could create as much as possible of your strategy within the strategy wizard and then "unlock" the code in order to directly edit/change the strategy as needed. However once you unlock the code you will not be able to work directly in the strategy wizard on that strategy.

If you do not wish to code, we can certainly refer you to 3rd party programmers who would be able to accomplish your strategy coding.

Hello Paul
Ok, but could I at least create an entry just by the size of the candle for instance? This way at least I'll get a feel of how to create an entry with a candle... That is if the candle is 6 ticks I will take the entry if the channels are falling or rising?

Thanks very much
Alberto

Hello Alberto,

Regrettably again this cannot be done in the strategy wizard.

The wizard pretty much works with logic conditions and does not have a mechanism for simple math like High[0] - Low[0].

Sorry Paul

It was you who published this on a previous post on this thread:

2) Candle > 6 ticks: (High[0] - Low[0]) /TickSize >= 6

That's why I have been looking for the pattern High[0] - Low[0] in the wizard. I just want to enter long if the candle is greater than 6 ticks.

Thanks a lot.

Hello Alberto,

Thanks for your post.

You are correct sir.

Regrettably that cannot be performed in the strategy wizard.
