I have just discover that the account is with OANDA U.K. but the server connected with Multicharts are in New York...so I know that I need a VPS or a dedicated server in New York

Hi,
I'm trading from Italy...and the account is for Oanda U.K.

tnx for answer

I want to use an approch fully automated...so I need a
1) VPS to run Multicharts 24h/24h
2) Monitor system to check that MC is active

so I need an advise for some good service...is there anyone that uses a VPS to trade with MC??

Hi to all, I'm looking for a VPS service for my MC to trade Forex on : Oanda or Fxcm (I'm a little undecided)...so which one do you advise (in terms of best integration with MC) and there is a VPS service that is suitable for this? I have seen http://commercialnetworkservices.com/ Elite Traders VPS ...

I solved the problem.....the indicator to use is : AvgTrueRange()
and not averagetruerange().

The Problem persists also if I set MaxBarBack Manually ( I have just tried with : 50, 100 etc..)...The firsts 20 results of the script plot1(averagetruerange(20),"MyATR",Red, Default , 3); print(" ||averagetruerange(20): ",averagetruerange(20)*PriceScale); are completely wrong. I have to use average...

Hi to all, I have plotted on my chart the standard averageTrueRange(20)... then I have made an indicator myATR with these few lines : plot1(averagetruerange(20),"MyATR",Red, Default , 3); print(" ||averagetruerange(20): ",averagetruerange(20)*PriceScale); and I have attached it to the chart.... But ...

I changed Time Zone in Exchange & ECN configuration to (INDIANA EST)
and checked "build from minutes"....
now the daily prices seems to be more similiar to other datasources

Hi Henry MultiСharts thanks for the answer...
I thought that maybe it could be a problem of settings...sessions...of the instruments,
what do you think about?
When I set MCFX datasource I don't set any change in the instruments, I gave the default settings for good...maybe I do something wrong.

Bye

Tj ...I'm only underlying a problem that I have noticed and that I would like to solve in order to use MCFX datasource in Multicharts in quitely and in total confidence....I have interest in solving the problem. So if you want to help me...I'm happy to read and try your solution... Have you complain...

I don't know...maybe there is a particular configuration to set...

Has anyone some idea??
Has anyone used MCFX data??

I know this....but 1-2-3 pips of difference is ok ....but 12pips ...are too much... Furthermore: 1) DailyFx.com has online charts of FXCM.......MCFX is FXCM .....the difference in quotes is not justified 2) IQFEED...DUKASCOPY...FXCM (on DailyFx) are 3 different datasource but the price are consisten...

I have been studying MC for 2 weeks...but I have been studying Forex on MT and JForex for years...Why??

I have just contacted IQFeed and these are the data:

2015-10-12 OPEN: 1.13594 CLOSE: 1.13574
2015-10-13 OPEN: 1.13576 CLOSE: 1.13785
2015-10-14 OPEN: 1.13786 CLOSE: 1.14736

Another Confirmation of my suspects

Why there is so big difference among data in MCFX (FXCM) , DailyFx.com (FXCM) and JfOrex (DukasCopy).... I have compared 3 DataSource : EUR/USD DAILY BID PRICE 12/10/2015 OPEN PRICE MCFX (FXCM) : 1.13720 OPEN PRICE DAILY FX (FXCM): 1.13604 OPEN PRICE JFOREX (DUKASCOPY): 1.13603 12 PIPS BETWEEN MCFX ...

Portfolio Trader does not support IOG and BarMagnifier for trading signals. IOG is supported and is always On for the money management signal only. really? But without Bar Magnifier and Extended Backtesting the results in Portfolio Trader are totally different from normal backtesting (and from real...

Hi to all,
I don't understand how to set Bar Magnifier, IOG and Extended Backtesting mode (ask/bid) in portfolio trader like I do in simple backtesting

Does Multicharts 64 bit supports Windows10??

Where is this option?? I don't find it ..... IN FILE -> PREFERENCES -> DATA SERVER MODE I have : online mode with download missing historical data (checked) but everytime I start MC... i wait several minutes with the label : the strategy is awaiting data for Bar Magnifier... before the signal is ap...

When I read the strategy is awaiting data for Bar Magnifier... MC is downloading the data from DataSource??

Hi,
I want to change my computer, so I'm uncertain about the type of processor I have to buy.
I think : i7-4790 or i5-4690...but I would like to know if MC use multi-processor? and hyper threading?
So which one do you advise to buy?

I read about datetime_bar_update so I used this : if(DateTime2ELTime(datetime_bar_update) = 1655 and marketposition > 0) then sell next bar at market; if(DateTime2ELTime(datetime_bar_update) = 1655 and marketposition < 0) then buy to cover next bar at market; is it correct for backtesting? But in re...

Hi to all, I use timeFrame Daily with [IntrabarOrderGeneration = true]; and BarMagnifier = 1 minute. I have tried to use if(time = 1655 and marketposition > 0) then sell next bar at market; to exit at specific time inside daily bar but it doesn't work. Time seems to return always the close bar time....

sorry, try to explain in a better way the question. If I have: TimeFrame Daily and buy order with 0) entryPrice at 1,30300 1) StopLoss at 1,30200 (with setstoploss_pt(100) ); 2) Profit Target 1,30400 (with setprofittarget_pt(100) ); assuming that the range of the bar is : High : 1.31000 and Low : 1....

Hi to all, When I used setStopLoss() and SetProfitTarget() I read that "The function is evaluated intra-bar and not only on close of a bar, and can exit within the same bar as the ent"... but if the stopLoss and takeProfit are on the same bar, to understand which one have to be executed, Intra-bar P...

Ok,so If : 1) data1 = Weekly 2) BarMagnifier = on (1 minute) 3) [IntrabarOrderGeneration = true] Then my script is executed on: -) Open of the Weekly bar -) Open, High, Low, and Close of 1Minute bar -) Close of the Weekly bar But it is not necessary that the script is executed on Open, High, Low, an...

Hi to all, I have a Strategy where I use Weekly timeFrame, now with [IntrabarOrderGeneration = false] the script is executed at the close of a bar and all it's ok.... if I set [IntrabarOrderGeneration = true] in backtesting the script is executed tick by tick or only at Open, High, Low and Close of ...

Hi,
Where I can find a complete reference (updated) with all the keywords and functions used in Multicharts? And a tutorial Step by Step that explain power language?

The Wiki is not completly updated and very dispersive.

Ok , I solved the problem in this way : stopLossAmout = averagetruerange(atrPeriod); takeProfitAmout = averagetruerange(atrPeriod); stopLossAmout = (stopLossAmout * PriceScale); //Stop Loss in pips takeProfitAmout = (takeProfitAmout * PriceScale); //Take Profit in pips setprofittarget_pt(takeProfitA...

not sure :) but I want that the stopLoss and TakeProfit are set right after my buy order is filled so...if I write if(MarketPosition = 1) then begin sell("Stop Loss") next bar (High - (averagetruerange(2)/3)) stop; //STOP LOSS sell next bar (High + (averagetruerange(2)/2.5)) limit; //PROFIT TARGET e...

this is my code : Inputs: wf(0.5), perc(0.5), portionTakeProfit(2.5); Vars: indecisionBar(false),closeOnUpperPerc(false),closeOnLowerPerc(false), buyCondition(false), sellShortCondition(false), indecisionBar = absvalue(Open - Close) < (wf * Range); closeOnUpperPerc = Close > Low + (perc * Range); cl...
