So far, that was the only bad one. Time will tell. The downside of large candles like 15 minutes is you potentially miss out on trades because of how volatile crypto is.

Hypothetical Example: At 9 AM, the coin was at 8000, At 9:05, it was at 9100. By 9:15, it was at 8500. If the conditions became valid at 9:01, the 5 minute candle setup would have missed out 4 minutes of price action but the 15 minute candle setup would have missed out on 14 minutes of price action. Although the size of the candle also affects the parameters you select as a RSI of 70 for the 5 minute candle is probably 45 or 50 for the 15 minute candle.

If you use the RSI_BULL_BEAR_ADX and the ADX indicator is below ADX.low, mod_low is added to your BULL.low and BEAR.low tresholds, when ADX is above ADX.high mod_high is added to BULL.high and BEAR.high tresholds.

When you use CLI put config.debug = true and config.silent = false in your config, then GEKKO tells you if he is able to stich your local database to recent market data, so that it can start without warmup time.

I started running gekko live in the UI and now am going to try to work on using the CLI, the CLI seems to have more features. Also, does the Bull/Bear ADX use maker or taker when putting the orders in?

** I see on this forum a few pages back someone said you have to take the TOML file and convert it to JSON. I did this and yet I am still receiving the same error. Any help is greatly appreciated. **

thanks.

thanks.

So, you don't need to just convert the TOML file to JSON, you actually have to put the json data into the config file itself, like https://github.com/askmike/gekko/blob/develop/sample-config.js in the "configuring trading advice" section.

Thank you will try this tonight!

I just made a video explaining how the ADX version of this strategy works. I try to explain both in code and visually using Trading View. Hope this helps.
