MultiCharts Project Management Timeline

Hello support,

Thank you for a great platform, I find it very helpful in investigating trading ideas and strategies.

Please add support to check the data against which a backtest is performed to see whether there are missing "holes" in the data. Obviously having large swathes of data missing renders a backtest useless. I've written a strategy that I think is a pretty good approximation of what I mean for the United States (you need to know the public holidays that's why it's country specific) - I'd be happy to share the exported pln with you.

Kind regards

Set statements operate Intrabar-only. ...SetStop, SetBreakeven, etc.
Need a directive to allow them to only operate a close of bar:
[IntrabarSetOrders=Off]

Also, please document the fact that current Set statements are CPU intensive.

Currently there is no way to name the SetStop, SetBreakeven, Settrailing statements.
Ex: SetDollarTrailing_pt(Amount)

Need this:
SetNamedDollarTrailing_pt("My Trailing", Amount);

In this manner, no existing code will be broken.

Hello support,

I ran into an issue where I'm using two timeframes (1 day and 1 week) with moving averages (I've seen this behavior with some of my own indicators) based off both timeframes BUT rendered only on the first chart when zooming in and then using the "Reset scales" or the "Reset price scale" menu options to zoom out the indicator based off the second data feed becomes disconnected in terms of price scale and seems to connect it's price scale to the second chart's scale. I should point it that this does not seem to occur when you use the "Zoom out" option to restore the first chart.

Thank you in advance for feedback and looking into the issue - at least the "Zoom out" option seems to be a temporary work around.

Kind regards

The information shown when a VP is activated/clicked, like the imf and total volume, is quite sqeezed... but not an actuall bug...maybe there is a nicer way of doing that.

But, when a value area high is near the day high, then imf and VaH mix up so bad, that even giving enough wideness, it is not possible to read them.

A really nice way for a solution, I sugest a grid, like NT has it. There could be seperate configuration section with the VP area and maybe even selectable values...

Being a long time account holder with TOS / TDA - wanted to request the support for their data feed and Order execution so that i dont have to create a new account with IBKR - i have been working on creating some strategies on MC.net and would like the option to continue and work with MC and TOS.

Currently, the Ellipse tool is virtually useless, as it has close to zero flexibility.
Here are the additional features I would like added please:

1. The ability to ROTATE and/or set a particular angle or perhaps even some kind of Gann time/price ratio;
2. The ability to set the WIDTH, relative to LENGTH.

If you do a Google search for "Ellipse Trading" and look at the images, you will instantly get a feel for the type of flexibility I am talking about.
Also here : https://sacredtraders.com/phi-ellipse/
They are discussed in more detail in the Robert Fischer book "Candlesticks, Fibonacci, and Chart Pattern Trading Tools" (I can provide if desired)

The general goal is to be able to envelope price action via an Ellipse that can be infinitely variable in size, shape, and slope.

I just learned that in earlier versions than MC14 it was possible to uncheck "Break on Session" for time based bars when running a cumulative delta chart. That really needs to come back.
I am already writing with Kate about this, so I just wanted an "Issue" to make tracking easier.

Hi all,

I'd like to add a choice for what to do when autotrade is turned off. Right now, we have the choice between cancelling all open orders or keeping them. But, I believe it's necessary to differentiate between opening new trades and stop losses / take profits, which should be kept running, while orders to open new trades should be cancelled to avoid adding risks when autotrade is off.

Many thanks!

All the trading platforms competing with Multicharts that offer trading with many brokers have by default all the instruments configured correctly: futures, stocks, options, and forex.
Is it possible to ensure that when the Quotemanger connects to a broker, it has already correctly corrected all the instruments configured?
Mc team see Tradestation, SierraChart, Cqg, etc

For Crypto trade "Order and Position Tracker" is not working because usually the USDT is used instead of Dollar .

My suggestion is open for other crypto currency like USDC,USDT and maybe stay this editable for other options .

This way "Order and Position Tracker" will return to works.

Regards.

Now, not activating "Break on Session" (i.e. Contract Bars) lets the whole chart run through and only closes a bar when number of contracts are reached.

I would find it usefull, to have the possibility to let the chart run through, but cut of the active bar on Session Break, so that there is some type of reconizing a change in Session/Day and with that taking into account, that number of contracts will most likly come in slower and are counte on a new bar.
So have an extra decission point: Break on Session for Chart and Break on Session for Bars.

Contract Bars i.e 25000 build from cumulative delta (UP/DN ticks, same as Ask/Bid) and NOT "Break on Session" starts at "0" on new day.
I use Local Time, so being in Germany the S&P mini starts at 0 o`clock
I use that chart as Subchart2 Data2 (regular chart on Data1), but would have to check if its the same behavior when on Data1.

I am currently using Futu Securities (US Stock code: Futu)'s Software FutuNN to trade.
https://www.futunn.com/en/
This software is popular in China, HongKong and it's developing through out in Asia, US and worldwide.

However i tried to connect Futu's software with Multicharts to trade and I don't know how to write the codes for connection.
This is frustrating for ALL my friends who have Multicharts, a large group of people, very large.

I talked to Futu, they have open codes, but i am not majoring in computer science, it is hard for me and us.
https://openapi.futunn.com/futu-api-doc/en/

Therefore, i sincerely and highly requesting, asking Multicharts to make build-in connection with Futu,
therefore we can trade Futu's software with Multicharts!

Thus this should increase the number of people using Multicharts!
Thanks!

For me, there are situations, where it is interessting to know where a minute based POC is, in addition to a tick-based VP.
Then I use the POC of a Volume Delta VP, but dont want to see the other lines of that profile, they just disturb the view of the overlaying/underlying tick VP.

However, I think it would be usefull, to be able to turn off whatever Line in the Volume Delta profile style. Even better would be, to integrate ARGB to the RGB colorsystem in generall, to set whatever is in the way, to transparent.

Every time a chart is opened an automatic entry will be done in the symbol mapping table for the symbol in the chart.

If the data feed and the broker are different providers (for example, Tradestation for the data feed and Interactive Brokers as the broker), then the automatic entry in the symbol mapping table is incorrect and also causes error messages. The wrong entry can be deleted in the symbol mapping table, but it is immediately added again when a new chart is opened. Therefore, it would be very helpful to have a function that suppresses the automatic entry in the symbol mapping table.

I really wish the two Synchronizers were built-in options like the Assign Initial Market Position to Strategy options. Currently, the two synchronizers are signals that must be put on the chart and It is important to configure timeouts properly otherwise, it may send changemarketposition orders not as expected. I would like the synchronizers to me built into the platform and activated by just clicking a radio button to use one or the other. I would like it so you don't have to configure the timeouts, but it that is required the configuration should be done in the Autotrading tab.

Here are the two options and the accompanying documentaton:
1) !From Broker To Strategy MP Synchronizer!
2) !From Strategy To Broker MP Synchronizer!

Manual Trading and Automated Trading on the Same Instrument at a Time:

Hello

It is too difficult for foreigners to receive data. It is especially difficult to receive OPRA data. This is because most brokers and datafeeding companies require a local US bank account. If it is possible to mention the name of a specific company, 'webull' or 'dxfeed' is easy to access for foreigners. (You can blur the companies I mentioned.)
I'm requesting a more diverse data feeding company. In particular, please allow me to receive option data from the OPRA market.

I want to add one more thing. People who use the 'TradingView' service can easily purchase the data they want directly from 'TradingView' without having to go through a data feeding company individually.
It would be better if multicharts allow users to purchase data more conveniently.

thank you.

More exchanges that possible make automated trade for crypto - Crypto.com Exchange

Sometimes a study is "in the way" but still needed. Instead of having to open the "Format Indicators" window, it would be nice to just do this via a right-click option, in addition to "Remove Study"

Able to set different MaxBarsBack length for each data series.
For example: Data1, Data2 in one chart.
Data1=1 minute, MaxBarsBack length=10 minutes.
Data2=1Day, MaxBarsBack length=10 Days.
If I set length be 10, currently MC works with 10 Days for both data1 and data2.

FTX.US (https://docs.ftx.com/#overview) is creating a new means of clearing derivatives, without the intermediation of futures commission merchants. The proposal is currently being discussed with the CFTC. I would like to ask that Multicharts add a new FTX.US Broker Plugin so users can access FTX.US and this new opportunity.

Hi,
Several trading-related software companies have created different products that allow you to create block strategy without programming. Is it possible to have a tool that allows you to create strategies visually and in blocks in multicharts? Here are the main ones on the market

BINANCE MARGIN and AVAILABLE POSITION don't exist. It's very difficult to trade with leverage without this.

Hello, it's very difficult to trade on BINANCE, without a vision of the margin and the available position.

It would be great if you could add several money managent calculations for the signals in the Portfolio Trader.

I know there is the possibilitiy to make money management stratetegies for portfolios with powerlanguage code, but some money management strategies by default like Tradestation has would be useful.

http://help.tradestation.com/09_05/eng/tsportfolio/strategy_groups/about_money_management_strategies.htm

Being able to add a moving average to an equity curve in a performance report would help users determine the strength or weakness of a strategy and if it should be turned off. Similarly, a probability cone, based on Standard Deviations, would allow for Equity Curve Trend analysis.

Even more functional would be the ability to chart an Equity Curve, and set alerts when it moves beyond a predetermined threshold.

I would like to ask that you consider Merging Multichart and Multicharts.Net into one package and platform where you can access all the MC languages, Powerlanguage, C#, VB, and Python API. I would also like all of the languages to be completely interoperable. This means that users could extend the power of Powerlanguage with the ability to integrate the other MC APIs (ie. Python, C#, and VB) into PowerLanguage code.

I would like the option to use Dark themes for all of the Multicharts Modules. Using MC all day with only having white themes is very stress full on your eyes. Please give us the option to use all dark themes across all of the Multichats Modules.

auto centre Dom without stopping for a few seconds.
Moveable columns to make things easier to look at. eg buy and sell columns nest to each other. Prce next to volume profile.
Please vote for this it will be a very handy feature for people who want to use depth of market.

Dear team,

We are anxiously waiting for the update to add additional exhange, especially with Future trading like FTX and Bybit to support data feeding and autotrading in MC. Binance is not supporting future trading. There is NO WAY for the MC users to trade with futures in MC!!!! The only way we work with algotrade is to leave MC, like Python. Please set priority to update the future data source. Thanks!

I would simply like to request that Multicharts create a Python API to add to their already existing MC.Net offering. Python is the fastest-growing language in finance. It would help MC to draw more customers from the growing Python Finance community.

Hi
I wold like to request access to a data and order processing services described bellow.

The data service is created and provided by another trading software called Sierra charts. It is provided thru their open source DTN protocol and it is called Denali data service.
- its comparable to IQ feed but costs in the region of $30 per month
- real time futures, FX and stocks data
- [10 years of tick data](https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/RealTimeDataFeedsAvailableFromSierraChart.php#Included)
- 18year plus of daily historical data depending on market

https://www.dtcprotocol.org/
https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/DTCServer.php
https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/SierraChartDirectOrderRoutingService.php

Hope you consider this as this is a great alternative to IQfeed and CQG which we already have access to via Multicharts.

Not much to describe, I have workspaces with three chart windows and several instruments within each window (for calculating term structure) and pressing "reload workspace" just not reloads all instruments within the workspace.
