MultiCharts: Trading Software for Automated Trading and Backtesting

tonyng

Use MC12 instead of 14. We 've done the testing and only MC12 is able to run many charts at the same time with 10 years data with APPL. we were told that this will be fixed in the next up coming version.

tonyng

With MultiCharts 12.0 Release 12 builds 200281 (x64), We re having trouble adding new stock symbols with eSignal. According to DebugView we have this: System.Net.Http.HttpRequestException: An error occurred while sending the request. ---> System.Net.WebException: The request was aborted: Could not c...

Hi, does anyone know if there r Power Language functions support Volume profile?

tonyng

Same issues this morning for symbol SPY

tonyng

We re having eSignal realtime data feed issues for the past few weeks. i.e. Just like this morning, QQQ 5min bar has exactly the same sudden drop 5 times from its current price (around $209) to exactly $203. The market has never dropped this low in the whole morning, and since all these 5 bars share...

tonyng

no, ADE is using c++ std library which is not made for concurrency ready. you will need to write your own dll using libraries like TTD from Intel or Microsoft

tonyng

May someone suggests a data provider supported realteime and historical adjusted dividend/split Stock and ETF minute bar data?

tonyng

No progress, but I was able to use the manual option to add symbols. You would need to know your exchange for each of them. I hope someone from the technical team notice the problem

tonyng

All the sudden, I cannot add any new symbols to the QuoteManger with eSignal(ver. 12.2 build 465.0 11/18/2015). It keeps showing 2 error messages "The Download of the specified resource has failed." and then this window will pop up later "Timeout. Do you want to retry". Somehow, "Multicharts64 Relea...

MC is not able to hold the open position after the last bar. Instead, it just creates STP1 @0.0. Does anyone have similar experience after holding a position after the last bar here?

tonyng

We had this problem all the time with version10 until we upgrade to version11 (Build 15647). Now this bug is coming back again. "STP1 sell 1 @0.00" This bug only happened if there is still an open position after u just reload the signal. "STP1" is not a coding error since there isn't an STP called "...

Hi,

Has anyone ever used Bitfinex to trade Bitcoins. Is there any 3rd party plug-in written for MC for connecting to Bitfinex?

I just found out NT has a plug in for it:

https://ninjatools.studio/bitfinex-ninj ... tcoin-demo?

tonyng

Just read the doc about [RecoverDrawings = False];
I wonder if the above attribute will fix the this problem

tonyng

Can ChangeMarketPosition be run during any bar tick and still got printed on the screen? If so, Is there a attribute to do it?
Right now I have to do it with BarStatus(1)=2 in order to get it printed properly. I wish there is a way to get printed right away during any tick.

tonyng

Yes, u r right

RecalcLastBarAfter(5);

was the problem. so I just grey out this line

tonyng

How is the OrderName handled by MC10 . Does each chart has it's own set of OrderNames or its by each Strategy. Right now we are using 1 strategy with 6 charts and seems like charts are fighting to use for the same OrderName.

tonyng

MultiCharts64 10 build 14322. This morning, an error just pop up and stop the strategy saying: "S1_Rot_s"name of the order has already been used for the other order. We suspect this is a bug with build 14322. We have been using the this algo for few months and all the previous version before 14322 n...

We have 6 cores Xeon CPU and Process Explorer shows only show 1 big MC process with many threads using the same core. Seems like MC doesn't use other cores. Multi tasking is different then parallel processing. MC can bind all threads to one core. According to the observations, threads has not being ...

tonyng

I have about 30 charts to run in production. According to process explorer, MC locks all charts in the same CPU. So in order to optimize the CPU, should I create 3 separate copies of MC or should I still just use one MC for all 30 charts? Does anyone here has experience to optimize CPU usages and ma...

tonyng

Hi we have bought 3 copies of MC and would like to create 3 user sessions with Windows terminal servers. Somehow MC keep complaining about need to close another copy first. Just wonder is there a way to make this working so we can use one terminal server to many MC rather then one MC with one machine.

tonyng

IPowerLanguageObject is being exposed by "plkit.tli". Google cannot provide any document about it.

tonyng

Hi I try to use TagEx to hold a 64bit address for the class variable. I think I should declare this in C++: void __stdcall db_SetFXStrategy(IPowerLanguageObject * pELObjOut,LPSTR pLongStrategy, LPSTR pShortStrategy) { //VARIANT IPowerLanguageObject.TagEx; int prop = pELObjOut->TagEx; ODBC_Class * DB...

tonyng

I don't think you can share array by using this version of EasyLanguage. Try ElCollection with ADE. BTW, GV has many diff. type of arrays like int,double,char etc.. . i.e. Chart1 and Chart2 share int[0] to [100] and Chart3 and Chart4 share int[101] to [200] BTW, GV is not thread safe. May be ElColle...

tonyng

Did u do this? or it will crash if your code involve any initialization. i.e. put all your constructor and destructor inside this 2 function entry points. external: "your.dll", int, "ONCREATE", IEasyLanguageObject ; external: "your.dll", int, "ONDESTROY", IEasyLanguageObject ; #events OnCreate = ONC...

We have more than 30 strategies to run in model mode just for capturing the computed events in PRINT(file(log),).... Is there a way to run them without any charts for saving all the computing resources.

tonyng

We have missing trades again. This time, I have TS NQ tick chart running all the time at the background. Now I have prove that MC64 8.8 build 9589 tadestation plug-in has bug. It's not sync. with TS Tick Chart at all. Just look at the attached screen capture. During the period of 10:03:44 the price ...

tonyng

I know today is the FED day and bid price just keep jumping around. Can this condition affect the data quality? Somehow MC missed some decisive bid tick information.

tonyng

Missing trades showed up again as history after reloading We trade with these configurations: - TS datafeed (9.1 build23). - Four MC64 8.8 build 9189 running on Windows 2008 R2 with different strategy - Each MC64 running three charts and they are: @NQU14 800 tick bar with Intrabar @NQU14 5min $Tick ...

tonyng

Thanks

In that case, I will

1. Load one instance of MC64 first

2. Reload data on each of the charts on that instance

3. Load the rest three instances of MC64 without the need to reloading data again.

For certain this helps a lot.

tonyng

We trade with these configurations: - TS datafeed (9.1 build23). - Four MC64 8.8 build 9189 running on Windows 2008 R2 with different strategy - Each MC64 running three charts and they are: @NQU14 800 tick bar with Intrabar @NQU14 5min $Tick 1min - NQU14 5min and $Tick running ADE to provide trendin...

tonyng

On second thought. I think from now on we will always press Ctrl-R to reload the chart whenever there is a event of changing. Seems like this is the only way to force MC64 to think right.

tonyng

Hi Andrew I think I am very close to find the problem. I can reproduce it now with my development machine. Our Strategy depends on two indicators to provide trending information. Somehow the indicator was providing wrong info. We fixed the problem by pressing Ctrl-R at the indicator chart. Just like...

tonyng

Forgot to mention that our NQ tick bar's resolution is 800 Tick per bar

tonyng

Each of MC64 has it's own main frame. Yes we have 4 of them running. I have updated the previous message to include our log file

tonyng

Hi Andrew, Datafeed: TS 9.1 update24. Symbol: NQU4 Tick, NQU4 5mins, NYSE Tick 4 MC64 program running side by side connecting to the same TS Account. We just saw the same problem this morning. we have 4 MC64 running and each of them has 1 Signal (NQU4) and 2 indicators (NYSE Tick and NQU4 5min). MC6...

tonyng

We have one signal and two indicators running. The two indicators are more like the publishers. They don't receive any data at all. On the other hand, the Signal is more like the subscriber and it does not send data. The trouble is not about the indicators nor the signals. It is about the chart not ...

tonyng

Select:

Signals -> Format.. -> Inputs

So I changed the value there.

tonyng

Thanks for responding. This is not our case here. We don't need to re-compile anything here. Just to changed one of the input value. It worked fine right after rebooting the machine. The whole point here is it should just use the new input value without the need to reboot the machine. With our devel...

We have 2 machines running MC64 8.8 9189 -> Production and Development (both are running windows 2008 R2) with MSSQL 2008 R2. On Production today, we have 4 separate MC running. Each of them has 1 signal and 2 indicators and the signal is using ADE to read the values set by the 2 indicators. Somehow...

tonyng

Is there any real difference between the above 2 functions?

tonyng

We have multiple signals running with Print() statement to monitor the health of the tradings.
In TS, the output screen is attached to each chart BUT MC only has one output screen attached to the editor. Is there a way to do it with MC to monitor Print() message from diff. Signals?

tonyng

Thanks very much. That's the problem.

tonyng

We have ported our code from TS to MC64. Somehow during the backtesting, we noticed MC64 has a different behaviour with Buytocover code. i.e. with TS if we have these code: if(currentask<=EntryPrice-S1ExitTarget) then Buytocover("S1_syn") 1 Contract next Bar At Market; if(currentask<=EntryPrice-S2Ex...

tonyng

Where can I import all the missing ListC functions from? I am using MultiCharts64 ver 8.8 build 8593

tonyng

Yes. So wired. I suspect its winros.ini got altered by a 3rd party software

tonyng

I went through all the trouble to fix it.

1. Install 64bit version of 11.6 of esignal >> still has error with winsock
2. Remove 64bit version of 11.6 of esignal
3. Remove 32bit version of 10.6 of esignal
4. Remove winros.ini
5. Reinstall esignal
Run Multichart and it works

I came from TS 9.0 and it allows diff. time zone from diff. chart. Can I do the same thing with 8.7 with eSignal data feed?
i.e. New York, Chicago, Hong Kong timezone in diff. charts.

tonyng

I heard 2.0 is out. Does anyone has it working for multicharts?

tonyng

I just try to re-compile Elcollection in 64bit for learning. Where can I find the 64bit tskit.dll

tonyng

Do u know where to get elexcel.dll (64bit) for Multicharts 64?
