Max number of open workspaces?

Hi, Is there any limit to the number of open workspaces that can be run at the same time? Ideally, I want to have 65 workspaces open. Each one with a single instrument/chart and a few signals/indicators. Before I go ahead and set this up, are there any limits I should be aware of? A scanner window t...

Re: MultiCharts Portfolio Trading Strategies

Within Portfolio Trading, apart from the obvious basics, I would like to see the following functions as an option when configuring the portfolio rules: 1 - Being able to assign our own custom signals to a portfolio. We have already programmed our own custom signals using MC.Net. 2 - Ability to split...

Re: Portfolio Trading

Hi Henry, Thanks for the reply. Why is there secrecy surrounding the features that will be part of portfolio trading? Surely your programers know what features they are working on? Why can't you share this information? I need to know the exact features and custom variables of the planned portfolio t...

Re: Portfolio Trading

We need to be able to scan for set ups/entries and trade the portfolio from a list of symbols (such as the scanner window)... No one wants to add a strategy manually to individual charts within a portfolio... What if I would like to scan a list of 300 instruments? That's a lot of open windows to man...

How to account for splits when backtesting

Hi, I use eSignal for data. Whenever an instrument has a historic split, the eSignal software automatically accounts/adjusts for them which keeps everything nice and orderly. When the data is fed into MC the splits are not accounted for... This is a nightmare. Attached is a chart for ticker symbol B...

Re: How to utilize Real Time Market Scanner for auto trading

Henry, I agree, MC needs this function. For traders who want to auto-trade a portfolio based on different asset classes, we need some way of referencing the different scanner groups. Then we can code rules such as: no more than 25% of the portfolio value to be invested in any one group. This allows ...

How to change the MC default printing colours

Hi, I know this is a simple question, but how do you change the default printing colours in MC? At present the charts have a light grey/blue background. I would much prefer the background to be white (to save the amount of ink I am wasting). Also, I am using red and green candles, but they print as ...

Re: ETF's as a seperate instrument?

Hi Peter,

Thanks for your idea...

If there are more of us out there who would like the same ETF instrument feature, maybe MC will consider adding it in a future update :)
