How to Keep Track of Many Systems?

Postby MidKnight » 11 Dec 2012

Hello,

What is the MC.net way to keep track of several systems across different timeframes and instruments? I realize I could make a chart for each one but that would be rather tedious and difficult to monitor. These systems are not auto-traded, but manually filtered.

With thanks in advance for any advise,
MK

Hello MidKnight,

Please provide more details on your concept.
What exactly do you need to track and what do you understand by "systems"?
What is your final goal?
If possible-please provide full sized screenshots demonstrating your inquiry.

Hi Henry,

Lets say I have a 20 coded signal objects (systems), but these systems do not all run off the same timeframes as each other or the same instruments. Some may run off daily data, some off 1 minute data etc. I use these as biases throughout the day, not as automatic order execution systems. So I want a simple way I can keep track of the signals - it needs to be something that I can just glance at and easily see where the systems are positioned and then I will use discretion to trade around that information.

Does that make sense?

With kind regards,
MK

Hello MidKnight,

The systems should be trading on actual charts in order to keep track of where they are positioned.
The only way to do that at the moment is to setup the charts and turn on the auto trading using a sim account.
Please vote for this feature request that will make local trading simulation possible without actual broker connection.
