Dear Users,

Hello, I tried this piece of code to turn off a strategy after a certain time (it is a bit confusing because the command takes more than 20 seconds to execute). if currenttime_s >=142040 then begin once begin CommandLine(".at_toggle"); end; end; I was wondering something, while turing off the strat...

Vlada MultiCharts

Hello Mik72, Yes, it is possible to do it by using the keyword CommandLine(".at_toggle"); Please note that if it is used to turn auto trading on, the popped up confirmation window cannot be skipped and a manual click on "OK" is required. More info can be found here: https://www.multicharts.com/tradi...

@Vlada thanks for your answer.

ABC,

Vlada MultiCharts

Following up on this, is there an option for this now? Hello, Yes, in the latest version of MultiCharts it is possible to disable alerts. One needs to go to Quote Manager - Tools - Data Sources - Interctive Brokers and uncheck "Show Delayed Data Alert" in the Notification section. In this section, ...

Vlada MultiCharts

Hello ABC,

Since MultiCharts 11, AllowSendOrdersAlways = true causes the script to be calculated on each tick in real time even if IntrabarOrderGeneration = false. It is required for the correct operation of AllowSendOrdersAlways, so we cannot change the behavior.

Vlada MultiCharts

Hello simoneb, In MultiCharts, Custom Futures are construed from the individual contracts that are present in QuoteManager. If a newer contract has not been added, the data for it will not be uploaded. For example, if you have added ESQ23, but have not added ESU23 and further individual contracts, t...

Is it the total profit or loss of all the closed and open positions of the current position / the total number of all the closed and open positions of the current position? exboy, ContractProfit returns a numerical value indicat...

Vlada MultiCharts

Hello exboy, The logic of PositionProfit in MultiCharts and TS is different.

Hi tpredictor,

The setexitonclose expression works for historical bars only.

You can write the script that will close the position in real-time at the end of the day.
For example, you can analyze time in the script and close the position 1-2 bars prior to the session end.

Hi lewisthegood,
