Thank you both for ur contributions.


@Brisvegas
 Would you care to elaborate some more?  I agree, filtering out the choppy noice would increase my winrates significantly. (duh)

I also agree that volatility would be a great way to filter out a lot of bullshit. When you say diff from avg/mean, do you mean stuff like bollinger%  indicator?

 

Any tips are good tips 🙂

: The moving averages are indeed laggy, but unless youre trying to get super-crispy trades, i dont really mind a tiny bit of lag. Obviously the less is better, so ill look into using multiple different moving averages together. Im a big fan of wilder averages atm, the smoothing helps alot i feel. The problem with moving averages as filters are that (at least for me) your remove alot of the good trades as well as many bad ones.
