I've been using the Half Trend Scalper...seems to work fairly well. Doesn't capture the exact tops or bottoms, but seems to put you in the right ballpark. Finding the exact tops or bottoms seems to be renko's biggest con, I'm still searching for a better exit strategy as well.Fair enough, makes sense. I appreciate the advice
The more I have been testing the Half Trend Scalper on an Amplitude of 1 and a fixed brick size of 10, it has produced great results. I have come to the conclusion that nobody has a clue what will happen any minute of the day. Even when things seem obvious, they end up turning on you. So the "all or nothing" approach seems to work best right now for me. Participate in all the trades the half trend scalper presents and because it will flip when the trend changes, your losses are essentially capped. I believe all of mine are capped at -$30 just due to the nature of the half trend scalper.Fair enough, makes sense. I appreciate the advice
