One thing that really pisses me off with Multicharts is that chart windows contract and expand if they are not active and you click somewhere in the chart to activate them. I have several smaller chart windows open at the same time which have some lines in them. What happens usually is that even tho...

I just imported Pinnacle Future data in Metastock format. When I create daily charts there is no problem. But when I select weekly or monthly I get nothing. The chart window is black without any bars and next to "Metastock" it says "No data". Is this a limitation of the application that it can't gen...

Yes, that's true I wrote that but what I meant was this: If you follow the Elitetrader l-i-n-k (had to write it that way because of your spam filter) then you will see two messages with two different codes. Both use the word "tomorrow" and therefore can't be compiled. When I changed in the first cod...

Of course you were able to compile the code after you replace "tomorrow" with "next bar". That's what I tried to tell you. :-) Let's try again: 1.

OK... to fix this I change it "tomorrow" to "next bar". The code in the second m...

But after trying several things I could make it work for the Dax future by selecting a 30 min chart and in the quote manager I set the price scaling to "As is". (I just noticed that the session settings are importan...

Hello fs,

did you get this to work? I'm also using the latest beta and have the same error messages like you. So far I only figured out that the error number changes depending on the date range I select for the symbol.

I'm trying to import all the TS code examples from the book "Trading systems that work" from Thomas Stridsman but somehow Multicharts doesn't seem to like them. If I compile the code I get errors. Here is a code snippet: If Condition1 = True Then Buy ("Go long") at open; Error message: "common error...
