HI MC support, and others. just for awareness and visibility. there have been multiple different threads on requesting API support for TDA, now Schwab. most recent is on the MC channel: https://www.multicharts.com/discussion/viewtopic.php?p=142174#p142174 Any chance MC can look into supporting the n...

Here's some update on the API with Schwab: https://developer.tdameritrade.com/content/trader-api-schwab-integration-guide-june-2023-update There have been several users on this platform requesting TDA integration. But MC support cancelled the integration due to "technical difficulties". I'm really h...

Svetlana, any chance MC will revisit integration now that TDA is moving to Schwab?

I've been playing around with chatgpt v4 ME can you learn from this? it is the official multicharts.net manual, and includes a programming manual : https://www.multicharts.com/trading-software/index.php/Main_Page#MultiCharts_.NET As an AI language model, I cannot actively learn or update my knowledg...

I thought the communication issue was resolved, I took it upon myself to get MC in touch with the API support at TDA in that last month or two. so I don't know what the hold up is ?

Love the MoBo bands. thanks for posting.
would be so much better if bands could be shaded. but still waiting on that feature to be added, don't we?

I have UpdateOnEveryTick True on my indicator, but it is starting to cause performance issues. it seems the only alternative is to update on bar close. Is there no way to update at specific interval? for example I'd like to update every couple seconds instead of on every tick. can this be done? if n...

can you plz confirm you're continuing with TDA integration? I'd appreciate it. otherwise I need to look for other solutions.

Ok thanks. just did it after another freeze. this time 2 of 8 charts freezed data. they have ES futures, the other 6 charts have SPY ticker and continued to work.

ran MCdumper, attached log file. It happened just after 12:00. does this mean the problem is on IB's end? if so, any settings I might need to adjust?

Hi, I have 4 MC.net desktops, each with 4 charts open, and using IB datafeed. I have allocated 4Gb of ram to IB, and Task-manager shows its not using more then 2Gb. My PC does not go over 40% of memory, and less than 15% CPU. about 2 or 3 times a day the datafeed freezes. usually not to all charts, ...

subsequently I received an email directly from the API team: Hello, Thank you for your email. In general, we do not actively reach out to external consumers to check the progress of their integration as our Developer Tools are mostly a self-service type of a offering for any consumers to integrate i...

Asked to escalate, and got reply: Hello Peter, Thank you for taking the time to write to us! My name is Andrew and I am happy to help! We appreciate the additional information! I've passed this information along to our Tech team who has let our API team know! I hope this helps! Thank you for being a...

the response from TDA on my query placed on their contact https://www.tdameritrade.com/why-td-ameritrade/contact-us.html page was to contact them on the email address I listed previously: api@tdameritade.com . I just sent them another email. can we all raid this email, and email them the request ple...

I will do so. hopefully there will be more MC.net users interested in this integration. do you have a contact, or email at TDA, where e can send the request to? I used to code my own interface with them using activex, but that is a very long time ago. they had a support email : api@tdameritrade.com ...

I have crypto in interactive brokers, but I can't seem to add symbols in MC.
for example BTC crypto in IB, how do I get that in MC?

is support for TD-ameritrade still on the roadmap? if so, any ETA?

Figured it out. startcalc() method addresses the bar index different than calcbar() method. for example, if you select 300 bars as data range; in calcbar() the most recent bar is bar 0. and the oldest bar will be 299. while in startcalc() the oldest bar is index 0, and the most recent bar is index 2...

From the manual: “The StarCalc() method of study class is called every time before the calculation starts.” I could be wrong but I interpret this that the code in the StartCalc() method is being called on every tick, or on every close of every new bar. Depending on the setting. But that doesn't seem...

solved by reading page 23 of the MultiCharts.NET-ProgrammingGuide-v.1.2.pdf "Please note that bar indexation is executed, starting from the current bar, leftwards with positive indices, and rightwards with negative ones." so to walk through the bar index from left to right, needed to use negative in...

In addition; as per previous example if you have a data range limit set at, in this case, 30bars, then addressing for example Bars.FullSymbolData.Low[10]. should I expect to get the low of the 10th bar from the left of the chart, or the 10th bar from the right of the chart? Neither one of these appe...

It is still very confusing . for example consider the following code: using System; using System.Drawing; using System.Linq; using PowerLanguage.Function; using System.Windows.Forms; namespace PowerLanguage.Indicator{ public class test_bars_1 : IndicatorObject { public test_bars_1(object _ctx):base(...

I'm starting to get more familiar with creating studies. from the MC.net Programming Guide: " The script begins to work through all of the historic bars of the symbol and on each bar the CalcBar() method is called " Is there a way you can decide whether how much (if any) to loop, instead of executin...

Learned something new. that sounds like a solution for what I want to do. thanks for the reply Darob!

or for example I find that my indicators work better on a ETF, but like to trade the 3xETF. so for example if my indicator triggers a trade entry for SPY, I'd like to trade the SPXS or SPXL. so the same question would apply. How do you place an order on a different ticker than the strategy is runnin...

Hi, I'm new to MC.net and my goal is to migrate some of my own developed indicators from a discontinued platform to MC.net. Learning C# as fast as I can. couple questions I would really appreciate to get some help on: I have an IB account linked to MC I day trade weekly SPY options, and my strategy ...

just a "me to". Newbie to MC.net. Had to open an IB account just to get started with MC. TDA support would be fantastic. patiently waiting. Thanks!
