You are welcome Rc76, I plan to communicate with MT 5 ,
and you ?

Emmanuel

rc76, Here are the links plus other one: https://coders-corner.net/2013/03/25/inter-process-communication-with-memory-mapped-files-part-02-serialisation-and-thread-safe-access/ https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/standard/io/memory-mapped-files https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/standard/io...

Emmanuel

Thank you PK1 for the link

This is really useful and helpful

Emmanuel

PK1 ,

I wanted to develop mapped memory as well. but I didn't find any example .

Do you have an example of mapped memory ? This would be very helpful . because I need as well to communicate with other application.

This would be much better than using an application of FX1.

Emmanuel

Tj,

Thank you for your answer

I try to find where is the problem. I will write a signal to produce this error.

Then I will post it here.

Thank you TJ

GDI objects are all objects that form the MultiCharts window and charts in it (all toolbars, menus, buttons, bars, drawings, etc).

I am working fine with VS 2019 .NET 4.7 and MC.NET without any issue

You just need to open the project in VS 2019 , that's all

There is no problem as well for me, I am working with Net 2019 . 4.7

When I want to add a drawing, it is not possible if the first indicator is switch off.

Drawing have nothing to do with the first technical indicator. Is there a way to remove this limitation ?

Absolutely, this can be useful !

Thank you very much

Emmanuel

Emmanuel

Good news !!! Thank you

We can get 10 years of tick data with rythmic ?? Does it works with CME e mini contract ? Does they have a continuous ES contract ? (to have continuous quote over multiple contract and multiple date of expiration ?)

Emmanuel

excellent !!!! thank you

Emmanuel

good idea ! thank you

Emmanuel

Good idea !!!!!!!!!!!!! it is more accurate than the bollinger band specially if we work with option. The standard deviation is the most important.

What is black swan event ?

(I am interested as well in option as I follow the courses of powercycletrading.com.)

Emmanuel

The histogram is good idea Dataheck !!!

It could give an overbought / oversold !!!

Maybe we could add the slope of the trendline in the histogram ?

I always like trendline, it gives a clear idea of the trend.

Dataheck , thank you

Emmanuel

It seem the Volume profile information go trough the charts, as it take a lot of time to retrieve information from the chart to the signal the instruction vp= ....

Emmanuel

I try opening 4 desktop , it works well, and it is very useful. each speed improvement is very important.

thank you johnromeronc

Emmanuel

Radekj

Do you have a signal to test ?
If you don't put the correct setup in the chart, your volume profile object is null.

If you have signal, I can test it, and look for a solution

Emmanuel

The instruction : vp = VolumeProfiles .ItemForBar (x) to get the volume profile is too slow And it is even slower as you read it from the chart : (As you can read in the log attached) Current : 2000 Total Seconds / (1000 VolumeProfile request) : 5.216 It takes around 5.2 seconds to get 1000 Volume p...

Emmanuel

Hi,

Is it possible to make the input box of the Bar Number larger ? (in Go to Specified bar windows)

As you can see on the attached picture, we can not see correctly the all number, only the last 4 digit

If I enter a bar number : 112 000 for exemple, I can see only the last 4 number.

Lordongi, I was thinking the delta come directly from the server , you should not have this inconsistencies. Maybe it depend on your data provider.

Emmanuel

I agree,

Thank you Smoky !

Emmanuel

TJ,

Do you mean that , if we pay IB more, we won't get this message "pacing violation" ?

Or do you mean to sign up with another data provider ?

Emmanuel

Hi

The best solution , for me, is to use IQFeed as data provider, and FXCM as data contributor (In IQfeed).

The data of Interactive Broker and the data of the FXCM contributor are almost identical. (for the moment in 2019, Feb )

Like that, you avoid any pacing violation warning

Emmanuel

Thank you for answer Chipeur !!

Chipeur le renard is a french name ? are you from France ? I am !

Emmanuel

Smoky

How much would a "custom package" cost ?

Is it possible to try it ?

Emmanuel

Smoky

Did you make this video regarding your bridge between MC and MT 4 ?

Do you have more information regarding your bridge ?

Can we try it ?

Emmanuel

Is it possible to send order from Multicharts to MT 4 via DDE ?

Hi The time necessary to do the calculus of my signal can take 200 Milliseconds to 3 seconds. As the playback mode is asynchrone, MC is updating tic after tic at the speed selected even if the calculus of the indicator is not finish . which bring some random error in the signal. Is there a way to ma...

We have to use data1 series only, I agree, Do you know if the indicator of Data2, will be updated every minute in CalcBar() of Data1 even if Data2...

We have it with multiple data series, day by day, minute by minute but why not tic by tic ?

Emmanuel

Hi,

Thank you Dave for your answer,

We understand, we are grateful to have the 32 bits and 64 bits.

With both version we will be able to use the 32 bits DLL and to develop the new 64 bits dll with the new version.

Regards,

Emmanuel

Emmanuel

Hi Txls,

I agree, it is probably the best solution to have the 32 bits and 64 bits.

TSSupport are doing their best , we know it, their job are excellent.

As long as we have the 32 bits version, we can use the 32 bits dll.

And we can use the 64 bits version for the newer job.
