Alex MultiCharts

Hello,

Such option is not available in the Report. You see backtesting and trading results for the period selected in the Chart Settings.

Alex MultiCharts

At the moment there is no ETA when these accounts will be supported in MultiCharts. We are working with OANDA in regards to this.

Alex MultiCharts

Have checked it on our end - it is working fine when trying to search for YM Futures.
You can also try and use our short Symbol Guide: https://www.multicharts.com/trading-sof ... mbol_Guide

Alex MultiCharts

The issue was resolved in the Live Chat and the fix will be applied to the future versions.

Alex MultiCharts

Yes, the chart might not look very smooth when you are combining different chart types or different resolutions on the same chart and it is expected. You can only place another data series on a sub-chart and watch the countdown there. But countdown for Renko might be different from the regular chart...

Alex MultiCharts

It is possible to add another data series to the chart with regular bars and select "Invisible bars" in Format Instrument -> Style tab. Then select the necessary data series via right click on the Price Scale.

Alex MultiCharts

1. We have tested it with the older versions: 8.8 - countdown is not working there; 9.0 - countdown is not working there. 2. Then tested it using .NET Special Edition 9.1 - countdown is not working there. Used .NET Special Edition 10 Beta 2 - countdown is not working there. As I mentioned before, it...

Alex MultiCharts

It might be an issue in a previous version. But correct behavior is that countdown for Renko charts should not be working by design.

Alex MultiCharts

Hello,

There is no countdown for Renko chart type in MultiCharts since 7.0 version when it was disabled.
Although Renko charts are built using time resolutions, they are not time-based, in fact. That is why countdown was disabled.

Alex MultiCharts

Hello MidKnight,

In MultiCharts you can trade using IQFeed for charting and IB as a broker without real-time subscription for data with the broker.

1. The studies you are referring to are available in the regular version of MultiCharts only, and not available in .NET version.

2. The studies you mentioned are indicators. Signals should be used for trading.

Alex MultiCharts

If you select "save" icon in the performance report, you can export in .xlxs ... (at least in MC10 beta2 you can)...

It is also possible to do so with MultiCharts 9.1. Of course, you need to make sure that you have the appropriate Microsoft Office installed on your computer.

It is not possible to synchronize Asks, Bids and Trades, as these are separate data series and they are updating differently and with different frequency. So, as the result there can be delays if you have them synchronized.

Alex MultiCharts

1. Please be more precise data leak you are referring to?
2. There should not be any synchronization when using DataLoader. It is a separate series which is updated and cannot be influenced in any way.

Hello MarketMicro.

No, it should not be done as you have described.

1. Create a new symbol.

You can have different IOG settings of the signals applied to the same chart.

Alex MultiCharts

Yes, it will. The signal should be added into all the strategies and you need to monitor Portfolio_Equity in it. In MultiCharts 9.0 it will be much easier to execute what you have specified.

Alex MultiCharts

Hello zysmn.

No, unfortunately, it is not possible.

Hello robbob.

It cannot be done programatically. But you can place each symbol to a separate strategy and specify the necessary settings for each strategy.

Hello MidKnight,

You are right, that the User should decide what value should be entered in a specific moment.
Plots in the Scanner always draw the last known value.

Alex MultiCharts

If you want to draw a horizontal line using plot, then you have 2 options:

1. Use plot style not LeftTick, but Line.
2. To draw not plots, but drawings - trendlines.
