Trend vs Flat - page 35

AlfaGroup:
No one has yet been able to determine over a long period of time what will "prevail" in the future: a trend or a flat. I'm telling you: we trade either trend or flat.

Some did, some didn't. To each his own.

Moreover, if you can't tell what will prevail in the future, how can you trade anything?
Guessing?
 
AlfaGroup:
Where's the conceit? It's the bare facts. Test trading. The test of the trading system since November. Doesn't take into account the little things: spread, commission and swap. Pound is the currency pair. There is only one indicator. 11.19: 242%, 12.19: 116%, 01.20: 169%, February and March said.
I would like to point out that oil and "coronavirus" volatility in March, and January (like July) is more often a flat month (holidays) for the majors. But my trend system also works on a flat: 169% in Jan. And on the trend, of course.

Perhaps you are a strong expert in the narrow questions ( trend trading )...

But why are you going into questions, which you don't understand at all - flat trading...?

Not solid!

Very simply. There will be a new trend behind the trend 100% of the time. You just need to identify it reliably. And if you hunt both the trend and the flat at the same time, that's a "guesswork" or 50/50. The result will be more erroneous entries. Proven in great practice.

It's not respectable!

You are not paying attention. A lyricist, probably.

Are you obviously a physicist...?

Answer:

1. How do you distinguish a trend from a flat? ( but not on history..., on history even a moron will show you the right one...)

2. Is it possible to make a break-even trade - 100% of profitable deals? ( over a seventh year).

 
CHINGIZ MUSTAFAEV:

Apparently there is nothing wrong...just not for you.

When processing the current trends manually with your indicator - it's fine, within

potential returns, but tense. On the automatic, it's a pretty significant shortfall

of profit, which for some people is a dream come true, but for me

I am not satisfied at all.

I wonder how you managed to determine that).

Thanks to your current trend indicator (based on a slightly modified ZigZag).

Trend and flat have no direction (one way or the other). A trend may be up or down - the important thing is that it does not change direction for a long time, unlike a flat, which moves in a corridor.
If the strategy is trending, the next trend may be in either direction V-shaped or after consolidation. It is important to identify the trends - a flat will give itself away with a stop.
It is also possible to trade on flat, but I don't know any flat strategy, which could be stable for a long time. The problem with the flat strategy is that its TP/SL ratio is not in its favour. In a normal trend strategy the TP is much higher than the SL.
