Hi there,

Is there a way to adjust the default email text in an alert. I'd prefer to be able to define my own subject and messsge text and have no default text.

Many thanks,

Hi there, Can I get more efficiency in use of array and box drawing than the code attached below. I ask because it seems to slow the chart down and takes a while to write the initial boxes. Many thanks for any thoughts, Anthony // This indicator reads a text file on the server desktop at start of da...

Hi there Vlada,

Thanks so much. Very useful info.

Hi TJ, Thank you for your input. I'd rally appreciate your help here... I'm assuming that MC uses Data time stamps as the feed for TIME function. Not computer time… Am I correct in my assumption? Maybe an example will make my query clear. Pseudo Code: if Time = 0835 and Close of Data2 > 800 then Buy...

Hi there, Just want to be clear on when an order is sent to the broker when I have two, or more data sets creating the signal and I have selected Real Time History Matching in Advanced Section of Backtesting Tab in Strategy Properties. Let's say I have: Data1: 5 minute Futures Index data. Data2: 5 m...

Thanks for the clarification Tammy. Just so I'm clear. If I set the data range to 100 DAYS Portfolio Trader will load 100 days of minute data on a minute data set and 100 days of daily data on a day data set. If I set Portfolio Trader to load 10,000 BARS it will load 10,000 minute bars on a minute d...

Hi there,

I have a number of strategies that use multiple data sets:

Data 1: 1 minute data, 10day range
Data 2: 1 day data, 400 day range
Data 3: 5 minute data, 10 day range

How do I set multiple data ranges in Portfolio Trader?

Thanks for your help...

Anthony

Thank you. Very, very helpful...

Hi there, I'm using IOData to read a file with great success. Not having so much luck writing to a file. Please could you supply the syntax for defineDLLfunc for all the functions. Also could you supply a simple example of code to write to the end of an already existing .csv file. Many thanks, Anthony

Thanks Henry...

Which do you think would be the most stable?

IO Data doesn't seem to be OS or Excel version dependant... whereas RTD Server seems very particular...

Hi there,

Can I use IO Data, or another utility/script, to export, in real time, an indicator's value to DDE so that I may use it in another application (ADL algo in TT).

Thanks,

hi there, I'm using this code to add an ATR value to my daily chart which updates on each tic: if LastBarOnChart then begin value30 = text_new(date,time,highest(high,50),"Yesterday's 5 Day ATR = " + printText); value31 = text_setColor(value30,white); end else begin value32 = text_delete(value30); en...

Sorry Henry didn't make myself clear...

Probably best if I just ask... How do I use this dll?

Thanks,

Anthony

Thanks Henry,

Can I access any of these functions directly from MC?

Hi there,

How could I use Power Language to reference a text file in my Dropbox which contains a list of dates and dividend payments.

Yes, I could load as a separate ASCI file but would prefer to hold data out of the MC eco system and just read it when needed.

Many thanks,

Anthony

Hi Andrew,

Could I suggest that the IQ Feed prefs allow for daily bars to be built from minute data. This would allow flexibility of session times and a longer history from IQ Feed.

Hi Henry, I followed the Wiki instructions: 1 - Load up single contract data in CSI and distribute 2 - In QuoteManager > add symbol automatically > Data Source > CSI > Future 3 - Select the single contracts from the CSI data All the contracts come into the exchange BUT when Edit Data is examined the...

Can I create Custom Futures with CSI data?

Many thanks,

To keep this thread tidy here is A solution: Define a Symbol/Number shared list (MapSN.Share) in variables and store each days/bars closing price. Place this in its own signal with a clone of the same portfolio of instruments the main signal will be used on: Vars: ClosingPrices(MapSN.Share("Prices")...

Hey Josh, Thanks for your pointers. As clarification the ADE code above works at passing OHLCV data through memory between MC workspaces. The write to file function doesn't work... I like your idea of using a shared list to store closing prices on each passing bar. The strategy could then store them...

I am very interested in auto trading with an FXCM Active Trader account utilising Raw Data. This is the sum of my research to date: To use Active Trader requires an account of $50,000 + or a trade volume of $10 million/month nominal. Active Trader offers commissions within the spread or separate fro...

Thank you for adjusting your license. I will find the extra depth of symbols very useful, especially when testing systems over the full NYSE and NASDAQ universe.
