Peter, i think there is lots of user including myself that would like to use your alertmon product, but does not want, can or need using a VM service.
Reason as in my case can for example be that one requires using my own metal case server at host and dont want a virtual server.

Is there any reason why you are not releasing the alertmon on its own without having to use your Virtual server service ?

Alertmon looks like a great product

Daniel,
thats an excellent question. I have not yet decided the issue, or the pricing, or if its got maintenance, purchase, or lease only options. I also want to roll it out slowly. Its been running for a long time and new features are still under testing and updated very frequently. For example ive been working on the smart MOC exits, but after talking to one user, figure we could do multiple smart exits at much better price at different price improvements multiple times before the exit.
ie 5 min before exit, aim for 10 ticks better price, 3 minutes aim for 5 ticks, and 1 minutes aim for 2 ticks better price.
The cost of the project has blown out spectacularly, but thats still irrelevant in that my own execution issues only made the project worthwhile. Support is another issue. Likely support will be outsourced to a user who has had the product for some time.
The product is also a bit more TS concentric than MC or NT. For example the position match feature only works on TS. Im not sure if MC has inbuilt position match feature.

Update for the week.
Filters in GSB is a big area to grow in. We are adding first time filter windows which are genetically choosen.
This is close to being finished in the beta stage.
NT code bugs are also in the short term pipeline.

Massive project over the years thats been running for a long time, but not promoted.
VM service, and execution tools.
I did a video on the position match software for TS, and how to get better fills, liquidity and more reliable market on close exits. Also fixed is situations like stock, and the dax where you cant exit at end of day as the market is closed at the point.
The video was recorded on non standard resolution, and when its scaled to 1920 x 1080 its hard to view, so likely I will do it again

Ive spend much of the last 2 weeks on enhanced execution and exits for users who execute with TS. This has nothing directly to do with GSB, but a side project. After much testing ive come into some issues not yet resolved. This is much more complex than anticipated.

Meanwhile GSB is close to having genetically choosen time filters. The section on filters will massively expand over time.
I still dont have the documentation of filters yet myself.

64.24 has one fix for NT, more to come and some bug fixes. Its under testing.
A few more indicators also will be added shortly, but wont be released unless we thing they work well.

Just an update
time filters are close to release. They are coded, just not tested.
3 new indicators, and variants of them are close to release.
Option to chose platform ts/mc/NT is being worked on. Main reason for this is for NT users to not use indicators or features that are not yet supported.
Many indicators are simply things users suggest, or I think MIGHT work. They dont make there way to NT or trial users unless they actually work well in trading systems.

A lot of progress on alertmon this week, with a lot of complex things being fully automated. (Complex session times) and soon auto day light savings detecting. - this changes session times relative to pc time on some markets.
The video still not complete, but I had to pause that as the changes to alertmon affect whats in the video

Also big news
Replacement to TS execution on TS accounts is being worked on. This now has blown out to a big project but should greatly improve execution errors for those that execute on a TS brokerage account.
I still have no idea on the pricing on this, or alertmon for that matter.

video on alertmon part1 is out. Please watch and like the video.
Basically tools to improve execution and fills
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=infug5stnbo
Alertmon has taken up a massive amount of my effort in the last year.


64.37 released (file name called 64.371)
fix for NT
Kama2, KamaSlow, KamaFast, MADH, MAD2 (beta user mode only)
Time filters are hidden in this build. They have a critical bug and cant be used

next build
NT mode where only working NT features area allowed. NT development of experimental features comes after TS/MC, so this should stop NT users have issues.
export of indicators used.

Hello,
Is it possible to optimize different time windows in GSB?
Example:
Data: Regular session
Time: 0900_1500 or 1000_1500 or 1100_1500 Can I find the best window option?

@REMO755
This is a feature thats in the current build as a hidden feature. Its under testing now. The current build had a bug in it, so it cant be released.
It will be under filters
Generally ES will be best 830 to 1500.
Gold might have some merits doing this but time will tell.

Just an update in general.
Timefilters works, but I had a bug unique to my settings. I was focusing on other issues and put this on hold.
There has been reasonable demand for atr profit target. Hope to get this to my alpha testers later in the week.
Ive spend a lot more time on alertmon and working on total replacement of TS strategy automation to replace with something much more reliable.
Ive also added 2 systems under systems for sale. Both now have reasonable out of sample.
Whats interesting in GSBsys21es, and the GSBsys1.3 -both of which have non GSB pattern filters added to GSB code, is that the out os sample is much improved.
These two day trading systems are extremely different.
https://trademaid.info/gsbhelp/Systemsforsale.html
The sister system to SwingES called SwingNQ is how out of sample and a cheap upgrade for SwingES purchasers.

Hope to release the build under test some time next week. I havnt tested it as busy on other things, but no complaints from test users.
docs on time filters here
https://trademaid.info/gsbhelp/Filters.html

Spent a lot of time on TS automation replacement.
Here you can see it trading. (dumb code thats just buying and selling every few minutes)
Note how I can have the chart on @mes but trading @mesh22
Its been trading for 2 days, 23 hours a day and perfect execution on the sim account

64.46 released.

time filters https://trademaid.info/gsbhelp/Filters.html
and profit targets
Recommend only users who know what they are doing use these features. I have not yet done system building with them.
Again just a reminder of methodology.
Establish a benchmark, try a new feature (like profit targets) and compare to your benchmark.
Likely profit targets only good for swing systems, not day trading.

hi Peter,

can you kindly shed more light on what purpose the time filter help to achieve? is it something like one may have a data set 3000-1600 hrs and you only want GSB to trade during the 830-1700rs?

Peter, interesting new features, thanks for this.

May i ask, what is a definition of a
- Trailing target
- Atr trailing target

How can a target be trailing, i must be misunderstanding something?
Trailing stop, trailing atr stop, yes, but trailing target ?:)

When enabling one of the profit targets, does GSBManager discover a target-value for the profit targets itself, or is it set by the user somewhere?

Good question.
Right now its hard coded range of PT to try.
In the future its going to be user editable

Struggling to understand the definitions and logic of the functionality on this one.

HI Daniel
I am not in GSB system building mode right now, working on TS automation & a NQ system, so have not used the features
Edit the ts code and look at it. I assume atr pt = entry price + x * atr. Similar to atr stop.

@Peter,

I understand if a fixed target is based on ATR, but i am not understanding the logic of a "trailing" target ? how does a trailing target work?

A target that moves along with the price ? if so, i assume it can never be hit ?
Or somehow a dynamic version of a target that somehow moves less and less, up until its hit ?

I have a hard time grasping the logic here, of these two "trailing" targets.

Hi Daniel,

Maybe it is an exit that works in two steps.
After a target is reached, a trailing exit is activated.

Hi Carl, Merry Christmas,

Yes that sounds cool, maybe..

What then decides the targets level and off set ? :)

Someone must have requested the new exit types from Peter, perhaps this person could shed some light over it ?

Hi guys,

The following is from a generated system script and appears to show that the target price is recalculated on every bar. For longs, it is the maximum of the calculation of Close + target points (since entry bar). So the target can increase but will never decrease once in a position. It looks like if the target is reached while still in the current bar then the target will be taken. I am not sure what time frame this is designed for but certainly not for short time frames. The loss exit of course can be totally independent from the target exits. I am not sure what the intent is, maybe to catch sudden spikes in price? I would think of this as a "Leading" Target.

This from the script :
// Profit Target
mp = MarketPosition;
ptPnts = ptPoints;

Switch mp
Begin
Case 1:
ptLongPrice = MaxList(ptLongPrice, GSB_Round(Close + ptPnts));

Case -1:
ptShortPrice = MinList(ptShortPrice, GSB_Round(Close - ptPnts));

Case 0:
ptLongPrice = GSB_Round(Close + ptPnts);
ptShortPrice = GSB_Round(Close - ptPnts);
End;

If mp >= 0 Then
Sell("#####") Next Bar at ptLongPrice limit;

If mp <= 0 Then
BuyToCover("#####") Next Bar at ptShortPrice limit;

FYI,
Jim
