Hi Jerry, I just want to let you know that this is a great thread that you started you have opened up my eyes with regards to the statistics side of trading. Do you use the same strategy for larger time frames like on the one hour, daily, weekly charts? Simon

Hi Insideday, Thanks for the formula and your help. Tell me what platform are you currently using? Szymon -
How Do I Get an Angle from an EMA? Multicharts Software
Szymon replied to Szymon's topic in Coding Forum
HI Insideday, Thanks for this function. I will try this later today to see if there is any difference between TLEasyAngle function which is builtin inside multicharts and your one. Here is a description of this function. --------------------------------------- TLAngleEasy (Function) Disclaimer The TLAngleEasy function returns the angle of a trendline with one price input. Syntax TLAngleEasy(Price, StartBar, EndBar) Returns (Double) A numeric value containing the angle of a trendline. Parameters Name Type Description Price Numeric Specifies which bar value (price, function, or formula) to use. StartBar Numeric Sets the bar number of the trendline start point. EndBar Numeric Sets the bar number of the trendline end point. Remarks This function is similar to TLAngle, except that you cannot specify different prices for the start and end points. This function uses the same price on the start and end bars. The formula used is a simple rise over run calculation to obtain the slope; the formula then takes the cotangent of that slope. In fact, you can obtain the same value as the TLAngleEasy function by taking the ArcTangent of the TLSlope function. Example Plot1(TLAngleEasy(High,1,9); ---------------------------------------- Regards Szymon -
How Do I Get an Angle from an EMA? Multicharts Software
Szymon replied to Szymon's topic in Coding Forum
This is the function that I am going to try out for my project. I think that is the closest I can get using the multicharts software. ____________________________________ TLAngle (Function) Disclaimer The TLAngle function returns the angle of a trendline. Syntax TLAngle(StartPrice, StartBar, EndPrice, EndBar) Parameters Name Type Description StartPrice Numeric Sets the price of the trendline start point. StartBar Numeric Sets the bar number of the trendline start point. EndPrice Numeric Sets the price of the trendline end point. EndBar Numeric Sets the bar number of the trendline end point. Returns (Double0 A numeric value representing the angle of the specified trendline. Remarks To calculate the angle, the function requires that you specify the start and end bars for the trendline as well as the start and end prices. The inputs StartPrice and EndPrice are the start price and end price, respectively, of the trendline. They are usually replaced by values such as Close, High, Low, and so on, or are replaced with numeric series type inputs. Also, you must offset the Price by its corresponding bar number. For example, if you want the trendline angle for a line drawn from the Close of ten bars ago to the Close of the current bar, replace the inputs StartPrice, StartBar, EndPrice, and EndBar with the values Close[10], 10, Close[0], and 0 respectively. The inputs StartBar and EndBar refer to the bar numbers of the starting and ending points of the trendline. These inputs must be replaced by positive whole numbers or be replaced with numeric simple type inputs. The formula used is a simple rise over run calculation to obtain the slope; the formula then takes the arctangent of that slope. In fact, you can obtain the same value as the TLAngle function by taking the ArcTangent of the TLSlope function. Example Plot1(TLAngle(High,1,High 9); See Also TLAngleEasy ____________________________________ -
How Do I Get an Angle from an EMA? Multicharts Software
Szymon replied to Szymon's topic in Coding Forum
I have been looking into this can someone tell me if there is a ACOS function in Multicharts. Here is the definition. ACOS function The ACOS function returns the arc cosine of a specified number. The specified number is the cosine, in radians, of the angle that you want. The specified number must be a DOUBLE PRECISION number. * If the specified number is NULL, the result of this function is NULL. * If the absolute value of the specified number is greater than 1, an exception is returned that indicates that the value is out of range (SQL state 22003). The returned value, in radians, is in the range of zero (0) to pi. The data type of the returned value is a DOUBLE PRECISION number. Syntax Regards Simon -
Hi All, Can someone point me in the right direction. I am looking for a function or script where I can measure the angle of a EMA on a chart. This is similar to the built-in function in Ensign. Anyhelp will be much appreciated. Thanks, Simon

Hi Tams, Thanks for your message and sorry for the late reply. Anyway what I wanted is to move the value of the nearby indicator from the one hour chart into the five minute chart. I have worked this one out using the same way as I did with the pl dot higher time frame indicators. So thanks again for the help. Regards Simon
-
HI Tams, Thanks for that great information and files. I will probably need your help implementing this in to multicharts. So what I need is to put the nearby 1 hourly indicator into the 5 minutes chart using multicharts In a bar by bar format without drawing a rectangle. I have attached a chart with the example. I will give this a try tomorrow. Simon

HI Guys, Can someone tell me is there a way to pass a global variable from one chart with a different timeframe to another chart within Multicharts software without using any additional higher time frame symbols on that chart or DLL (Dynamic LInk Library) files. All help will be much appreciated. Regards Simon

Thanks Blowfish, For that information, yes I must say it is a nice indicator. So I think I have finally finished programming the whole set for Drummond Geometry in Multicharts. Here is a snapshot of the multiple time frames in action with the indicators on it. Regads Simon

Hi All, Does someone have a screenshot of the latest 6EZ9 with the original Drummond near by support and resistance zones on it. I would like to compare this with my indicator that I built in Multicharts for that purpose. I have attached a screen shot my nearby indicators are in Pink. All help will be much appreciated. Thanks, Simon

New Open Source Project - MS Sql Server Market Data Colletor.
Szymon replied to Szymon's topic in Automated Trading
Hi All, Been busy here but have devoted more time on this project. As you all know the first stage is to see if the concept works. So I have created a small application that connects to the OpenECry servers and show you all their contracts. I have not polished this application so it is crude but it works. I have attached this application in its binary form. If you have an valid OpenECry account then use that make sure you change the server address to prod.openecry.com from api.openecry.com and press the login button. I will try to do some more work this weekend. Once this connecting software is finished all I want it to do for now is to select the required symbols to track and shows what variables are the for every contract that is selected in realtime. Then we will discuss the next part of the project. All the best. Simon Debug.rar -
Hi All, Can someone tell me if there is a programmable rectangle tool in Multicharts (Easy Language)? I want to place a square using esay language on my charts. All help will be much appreciated. Thanking in advance. Simon

What is the Difference Between IF and While Statement?
Szymon replied to rajatheroyal's topic in Automated Trading
"While" will execute the command over and over again as long as the condition is met. If the condition never changes, then the while loop will execute forever. "If" executes the command once if the condition is met. If there is an "Else", that command is executed once if the condition is not met. So If/Else gives you a one or the other situation. Simon -

Szymon replied to Szymon's topic in Automated Trading
Hi Guys, Thanks for your valuable input. At this stage I am happy to take the hourly information, I use this information to calculate future high probability time reversals plus other things and also I wanted to see if this is all possible, to contribute towards this project and share this information like opensource project. Here is a simple OpenECry connector, you can sign up for an API Login from OpenECry and use that to login to this test system. On the next system l will put some basic functionality on the form, just to see what kind of information they are offering. Just extract the folder and double click on the OpenECry_Connector.exe file about 26kb. A form will pop up and then put your login details in, then you will get a test message if all went well. Regards Simon OpenECry Connector.zip -
Sorry to hear that. Have you tried any other strategies besides Drummond Geometry? Simon

HI All, I have finally got some time here, right now I am installing the latest version of Visual Studio 2008, after that I will start programming a small test application. I also found an excellent charting component that I will incorporate once the first stage is done to utilize the data. Dundas Data Visualization Gallery Simon -

Szymon replied to Szymon's topic in Automated Trading
Project Update, OK, everybody who is onboard here is an update. APIFeed for now will be OpenECry. I have just downloaded the latest version of MS Visual Studio 2009. Will create a simple application that will login to the OpenECry server and see, how does the data look like and what other fields are there to collect. I will post this simple app in exe mode for others to use, you will have to have your own API login to test it out. Now all I have to do is find some time, possibly this weekend. Regards Simon -

Hi Frank, Exactly what I am trying to do here. I do not mind sharing a website server and a database to hold that information. And giving access to all users who will contribute to this project. Regards Simon -

I think around 10 for now. But I will put that functionality into the software where you will be able to select how many active instruments to track at any time. Simon
