Dear Sirs,

I do not autotrade with MC but have strategies running on it in realtime.

How can I see the orders and executions (which are generated in the charts) of these strategies in Position Tracker when I am not connected to a broker?

Thanks a lot.

Joerg

Khalid, thanks for your fast answer. That is exactely the setting I mean and in addition I also would like to set up the "backtesting precision" in the backtesting tab of this window. To don´t use this setting would not solve my problem: Especially the "Position Limit" Setting is important for the i...

Hello,

in Multicharts it is possible to change some setting in the properties section for pyramiding (handling of multiple signals per direction within one position) or intra-bar resolution.

Where can I set this up in Portfolio Backtester?

Thanks a lot.

Joerg

Hello, great that intrabar resolution is added for backtesting but it seems to require tick-data. In TS there is also an option to use Minute Date for this. It would be great to have this option in multichart. Now as you have it for ticks it should be easy to add it for minutes? F.e. ES has ~200000 ...

I played a little with the Walk Forward Optimizer of MC and was wondering about the way MC handles Walk Forward. It seems to just show the results for the single In-Sample and Out-of-Sample Periods but does not combine them to one whole backtest. Other vendors (NT or AB) have the ability to choose (...

First of all: Thanks for this very useful feature which I was waiting a long time for.

Since Version 5 I have the problem to be not able to authorize my license because MC seems to connect directely to the license server. I guess before it used IE settings which worked fine for me. Because I´m using it on my office PC I really need the possibility to use a proxy or better MC uses the ...

I´m having the same problem than hero. In version 2.1.999.999 (which I used before) it was working fine.

Is it now possible to choose the session template out of the chart (without QuoteManager)? How can I do that?

Thanks

Joerg

Hello, as far as I know no other trading software has the ability do do the following, but this would be very helpful for all mechanical traders I guess: The ability to reoptimize a strategy on a scheduled basis. Or in other words: a walk-forward-optimization for live-trading. The program should do ...

Hello, does someone know a trading software which is able to reoptimize a trading strategy automatically in a defined interval, f.e. every 4 weeks during the weekend? I know some walk-forward-testing tools but I mean a software which does this in real trading phase. Because then I would be able to u...

Dear Sirs, I´m using MC 3.1.1353.400 with bloomberg-datafeed. In the past it worked good but now MC does no backfill of data anymore. Also the EventLog in QuoteManager is completely empty. Normaly there the data requests were visible. In the Chart I just see the data which are in the database alread...

Hello, I´m generating ASCII-Files via EasyLanguage (Synthetical Symbols) and chart them for having the ability to generate tradingsignals on them. Therefore I´m using the QuoteManager and create symbols for ASCII-DataSource. The Problem is that it does´nt change the historical chart when the data ar...

Hello, I searched the forum but could´nt find detailed information about running 2 versions of MC on the same PC. I´m a registered user and MC 2.1.999.999 works good for me. Now I´d like to test MC 3.1. and it´s new features without loosing the stability of MC 2.1. 1.) Is it possible to have both ve...

Hello, is it possible to do the following with Multicharts?: 1.) Importing ASCII-Intradaydata with some missing bars (I know this is :D ) 2.) Importing a second ASCII-file which contains the missing bars Does this result in a dataseries which contains all bars? Of course I have to take care of the o...

Hi Marina, yes, of course: It´s all about building cont. contracts where the history of former contracts is adjusted to the price level of the current one. For trading systems this seems to be the best practice for getting consistent signals. With breakpoints it would be possible to reload just data...

Hello, as I red in the duscussion forum it´s not natively supported to build cont. contracts. For me it seems a useful way to export the data of the old contract via the Print-Command in EasyLanguage to an ASCII file and import them into the new contract again (or use ASCII-Mapping which ensures tha...

This works fine. Thanks a lot.

Joerg

Hello, I´m trying to export data out of the chart in an individual format. Therefore the function FormatTime seems very useful. When I use Print(File("C:\temp\test.txt"),ELDateToString(Date),FormatTime("HH:mm",computerdatetime)); it works fine. But I would like to export the Time of each bar. If I u...

Hi Marina, you´re right. I´ve overseen some symbols. Now I used "Apply to all Symbols" and the file does´nt grow anymore. I thought it still is holded data in cache because in the chart also every new tick is shown, not only a new completed minute. Let my ask another question because slow growing GD...

In my database I only collect Minute & Daily Data, no Ticks ("Fields to collect"). I´m quite satisfied with the small size of the TSSTORAGE.GDB also for big volumes of minute data. But it seems to collect Tick Data in the TSCACHE.GDB while I´m online. Would it work to save a new/clean TSCACHE.GDB fr...

Hello, I´m wondering why the GDB-Files (which should contain the Quote-Database) in C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\TS\Support\MultiCharts\Databases are´nt updated when new Data arrives or at least when I exit MC? I collect Minute- and Daily-Data for 30 actively traded symbols s...

It also would be very helpful to set a breakpoint for a symbol so that no data before this breakpoint and (if possible) all data behind this breakpoint will be updated with new data from the datavendor (if it supports backfilling). This would make it possible to construct continious contracts with c...

Hello, as I found out there was a TradeManager Window available in Multicharts 1.9. This was a very good Tool for having an overview about the current active orders (limits, stops) and recently executed orders. Is this feature really deleted in Multicharts 2? At least I Can´t find it. If so: Why? Wh...
