Hi r41866, Please reproduce the situation in simplified environment (one workspace, one chart, simplified signal) and send us the following files so that we would be able to investigate it: 1.

Svetlana MultiCharts

Hi Walter,

The information has been forwarded to the developers. They will make some adjustment in order to support the new format. We will let you know when there is any result.

Svetlana MultiCharts

Here is one more solution. This indicator allows to draw the price according to mouse clicks.

Code: Select all

[RecoverDrawings = false]
[ProcessMouseEvents = True]
if(getappinfo(aiCalcReason) = CalcReason_mouseLClick) then begin
	text_new_dt(MouseClickDateTime, MouseClickPrice, text(MouseClickPrice:0:5));
end

Svetlana MultiCharts

By default, real-time minute bars are not saved to the database because the real-time bars can be different from the historical minute bar from the data provider’s server. So MultiCharts requests the minute data from the provider’s server next time you request this information. That is why some hist...

Hi krisnara, We'd suggest the following method: 1) Insert Arrow Up / Arrow Dn drawings; 2) Apply this indicator to the chart with Arrow drawings: RecalcLastBarAfter(1); var: arwID(0), nextID(0) ; if LastBarOnChart then begin arwID = arw_getfirst(7); repeat arw_settext(arwID, "%price%"); nextid = arw...

We’d offer two possible solutions:
1) Enable Study Values in the Status Line.

Hi krisnara,

What specific difficulty do you face when try to achieve it?

Svetlana MultiCharts

Hi gary1288,

Please perform troubleshooting steps from this article.

Svetlana MultiCharts

Hi Eric1704,

Can the keyword SetStopLoss in Stop Loss default Signal be modified and used with highs and lows instead of dollar amount?

No, it cannot. Stop Loss is always calculated as an offset from the entry price.
You can use regular stop orders for your needs.

Svetlana MultiCharts

Hi Anthony,

From where do you generate alerts (signal, indicator, drawing)?

Svetlana MultiCharts

Hi Anthony,

No, there is no way at the moment, unfortunately.
The developers will estimate if it is possible to implement it in future.

Stop and Stop-Limit orders are designed to work differently in backtesting, simulating real market activity.

Svetlana MultiCharts

Hi joe107c,

In-sample and out-of-sample periods are determined in the settings. Please read more here.
Forecast contains the recommended parameters and you can apply them this way: put the cursor on one of the titles in the table and press Apply in the popup menu. More about WFO report.

Svetlana MultiCharts

Michele,

These are negative values.

Svetlana MultiCharts

Hi turbofib,

Once the stop price is reached, the stop-limit order becomes a limit order to buy (or sell) at the limit price or better.

You can try to increase the Limit offset, or use Stop orders.

Svetlana MultiCharts

Svetlana MultiCharts

Hi Mark,

On our end auto trading works as expected. If you would like us to investigate your case, please send the constructive feedback as described above.

Svetlana MultiCharts

I'm also interested in using cum delta. If still an issue, is this an MC.net issue (I use PL for the moment) or a CQG issue (I use Rithmic at the moment)?

Hello sgjohnson1981 ,

The issue happens wtith CQG data feed.

Svetlana MultiCharts

Hi Mark,

If you face an unexpected behavior, please report it by means of Help – Feedback and specify the broker ID of the order.

Svetlana MultiCharts

Limit orders never slip in a worse direction; therefore, slippage is not applied by default. The only way to change it is by means of a special option in the registry. If you want to return to the default behaviour, please contact our support directly for the instruction.

Svetlana MultiCharts

Hi rc76,

That is because MultiCharts uses bar close timestamp for bars instead of the bar open. It means that the bar that is open, for example, at 15:58 and closed at 15:59, will acquire the 15:59 time.
This is hard coded and cannot be changed.

Svetlana MultiCharts

Hi soacm,

By the way, the Fail-Watch system is implemented since MultiCharts 14. It means one will be notified if the limits of the OS, hardware, bandwidth, software and/or broker processing speed are reached.

Hi BlackstarOB,

MultiCharts uses bar close timestamp for bars instead of the bar open.
It means that the bar that is open, for example, at 15:58 and closed at 15:59, will acquire the 15:59 time.
This is hard coded and cannot be changed.
