I may not have been clear in the initial question. I presumed by combining cumulative delta from different symbols it would have to be an indicator, not a chart type. I need to access the data used to build cumulative delta from within an indicator. Maybe that's why I'm confused by the answers so far.

I feel like my questions aren't being directly answered. I'm instead getting relevant(?) yet not terribly helpful explanations that might help or might not. So is Ask/bid size on historical data from my data provider available via .NET or not? What does a "historical database" have to do with what M...

I don't think that would get me cumulative delta since that has to do with bid and ask volume, not ticks in general. How does MC derive cum delta for historical data if bid and ask volume are not available on historical data? This is the problem with having these things as types of charts rather tha...

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)?

Can either MC PL or MC.net indicators be written or changed to combine components of data1 and data2 similar to TS? Specifically, I'd like to combine bid/ask vol to get combined cumulative delta as well as combine volume for the footprint chart. I'd like to combine regular and micro futures contract...

Seems appropriate for a chart to maintain settings. I understand setting a default would set a system-wide default for charts I open thereafter, rather than effecting a single chart. I don't know how to explain it in more detail than I already have. I have to set it each time I open the same charts....

The bug: historical orders in chart trading won't remember my settings. I think the default blue is hard to see so I change it to cyan. It never seems to remember the setting. Even when I click to change it the settings are actually the way I had them but won't register until I click OK back out of ...

Seems to be working now.

I saw a post on the .NET side that had some updater for Global Mode fix. Mine in the PL version isn't working, unless I'm doing something wrong. The wiki page doesn't list much for getting it to work with multiple timeframe charts of the same symbol.

Maybe someone will come along willing to do a difficult direct translation. Until then I suppose I can manually draw. Rectangles seem to stay when you change the chart interval. Any idea why text labels don't? (Sometimes they do, sometimes not.)

Would like to use this in MC. Got it from the TS community forum. It drew rectangles around the same period (and from high to low) every day and placed a text label on the box that indicated high/low/etc. for that period. I just modified it to show me the day of week of the period. I can't even seem...

Nevermind. Apparently the only account listed that reported "Free Margin" was the Rithmic Paper Trading account. The Rithmic 01 live account did not. I'm just looking for a way to get account data onto the chart and rather than using the Order and Position Tracker window. I was hoping to get it into...

There's no "Purchasing Power" but there's a "Free Margin." When I buy a single contract it seems to decrease by initial/daytrading margin and fluctuates depending on P/L. Are the two fields the same thing?

TS has a keyword that is basically "here's how much money you have left you can use to buy more futures contracts even if you've already bought some." It's GetRTPurchasingPower and their help entry has a formula: Real-time Cash + Real-time Trade Equity + Securities on Deposit + Initial Margin - Open...

So there's also a 14 character limit? Wow.

As for the search, search for "compare source code" returns your post, so seems to be working correctly? :) You can also click "Go to advanced search" for more options. It just happened to "work." If I aim at something's general direction with a firearm, I might hit it, but only by luck. Doesn't me...

I know there's code in all the indicators I'm trying to import, but some are visible while others are not. Also, please add the ability to search for exact phrases on this board. Unbelievable that's not already implemented. Not only did it refuse to search for "Compare Source Code" it notified me it...

In the notification options for this message board it says "Notifications" twice, with "Email" in the middle. Are there two different types of notifications?

Is it possible to undock the Chart Trading box from the right side of the chart? I'd like a floating box that I can resize.

Why does T r a d e S t a t i o n get truncated automatically to TS?

So was the ability to use coordinates (as in TS's XYPoint class) ever implemented?

Would like to switch from TS to MC .NET. I have some ts indicators that use up/dn volume. Looks like it basically works the same just different keywords. Does it only work with certain data feeds? I've used rithmic and would like to use them again. Thanks.

Went through my exit code once more and found the error: if StopLossAmt > 0 then SetStopLoss( StopLossAmt ) ; should have been if StopLossPct > 0 then SetStopLoss( StopLossAmt ) ; That part seems to work OK now. Still getting the lag warning messages. Only have three charts open. Watching the proces...

Trying to follow the instructions from here: https://www.multicharts.com/discussion/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=8499&p=56745&hilit=manual+auto+exit+entry#p56745 It says you need one or the other in the link I shared in the first post. This link above says to use Broker to Strategy. Just tried every combina...

Try and disable the synchronizers.

And what would the point of that be considering it would disable the ability to sync manual trades with auto trades, which is one component of what I'm trying to do?

Just received another of those warnings. 300 seconds this time. That's a whole 5 minutes. Something's def not right there.

Here's applicable settings. Maybe something is set wrong.

Trying to use the synchronizers to manually trade with automatic exits as here: https://www.multicharts.com/trading-software/index.php/Manual_Trading_and_Automated_Trading_on_the_Same_Instrument_at_a_Time Yesterday I kept receiving warnings about tick to strategy calculation start lag warnings that ...
