if MarketPosition = 0 then

	if mod(time,2) = 0 then

		buy next bar at market

	else

		sellshort next bar at market

else if MarketPosition = 1 then	

	sellshort next bar at market

else if MarketPosition = -1 then	

	buy next bar at market;

[1] Plot 1-min bar chart for 10 years period
[2] Apply the above signal.
[3] STD Exception: no enough memory will appear.

See attached screen shot. It will show VM usage too.

The signal is not representative. It generates about 3 millions of trades - the same number of bars you have for 10 years. If you have a problem with a real strategy please send us a code. Otherwise we consider it is as artificial example, not a bug.

if my math is correct it is actually 5,256,000 bars(trades) !

10 years*250 trading days*1440 minutes= 3.6 M

10 years*250 trading days*1440 minutes= 3.6 M

Andrew: * I wasn't thinking of "trading days", just 10 years of days. you're correct of course.

ok guys,

I agree that too many (yes too man!) signals, but I just thought as long as there is enough VM, no memory exception would be raised.

Anyway, this is not realistic, and I will forget about this exception.

Thank you all.

I want to believe someday we will migrate to x64 architecture and it will allow you to use unlimited number of bars as far as you have enough RAM.

MultiCharts leading the way again !
