I was wondering if someone could help me out. I'm using OEC and trying to write a code that will draw a line for the globex high and globex low. I got it drawing from midnight, but just can't figure out how to get it when globex officially re-opens. EG 4:30pm EST for the ES as opposed to midnight. Any help is appreciated.

Since Market Delta is a whole different company, I highly doubt that it will every be available for free. If you look at other charting packages and associated fees for the data, $25 still falls into the extremely cheap side. If $25 makes or breaks your month, time to find a new profession.

Don't know if this has been mentioned before, but this is something that was in the latest SFO magazine. http://www.sfomag.com/article.aspx?ID=1315&issueID=c It basically says that a 1 period ATR is pretty close to a volume calculation.

I'm pretty sure it just cash settled. Do you think they will send you a brief case full of british pounds or you go there with a giant bag with "$' on the side of it??? lol. Physical delivery is for actual products, eg lumber, oil, etc. I hope you research more before you trade.

Probably the best thing that could have happened.

Can't be that good since you're trying to sell yours. Unless of course, you made a copy to keep for yourself, but that wouldn't be right, now would it??:idea:

cool more uber-secret indicators. good stuff:doh:

Fine, here it is: Buy when undervalued Sell when overvalued. Enjoy your millions!!!:helloooo:

So you expect someone to just tell you what to use, when to use it, how to use it, so you can make money? Yeah, Ive spent years developing my strategy, let me just give it away to someone so they can make money too. There are more than enough threads on this site to give you a start. How about you start there and actually try to do something for yourself ( a novel idea, I know). Then come back if you have specific questions. If not, thanks for providing some liquidity in the market in your short stay:)

what?? This thread makes no sense, please clarify.

This indicator was made by Frank and Popstocks. It was in another thread and it was getting rather long, so I thought it would be best to make a separate thread. I just added an input for Starting Time. vwap.txt

I assume you downloaded the plug-in for the market replay. If so, on the main window ( the one with all the account summary, completed orders, p/l, etc) select "File"--Plug-ins--Market Replay. A little window will pop up. There is no data in there since you have to set it up to record live data. It's pretty slick. All data, including DOM's is being recorded, so you can actually put trades on the DOM as if it was live.

This will plot a %R and two Hull Moving averages in OEC. When applying this indicator make sure to select "Create in New Area". inputs: RLength( 14 ), OverSold( 20 ), OverBought( 80 ), price(Close), length1(20), Length2(40); variables: PctR(0), HMA1(0), HMA2(0); PctR = PercentR( RLength ) ; HMA1= jtHMA(PctR, length1); HMA2=jtHMA(PctR,length2); Plot1( PctR, "%R" ) ; Plot2( OverBought, "OverBot" ) ; Plot3( OverSold, "OverSld" ) ; Plot4(HMA1, "HMA1"); Plot5(HMA2, "HMA2"); #function jtHMA Inputs: price(NumericSeries), length(NumericSimple); Vars: halvedLength(0), sqrRootLength(0); if ((ceiling(length / 2) - (length / 2)) <= 0.5) then halvedLength = ceiling(length / 2) else halvedLength = floor(length / 2); if ((ceiling(SquareRoot(length)) - SquareRoot(length)) <= 0.5) then sqrRootLength = ceiling(SquareRoot(length)) else sqrRootLength = floor(SquareRoot(length)); Value1 = 2 * WAverage(price, halvedLength); Value2 = WAverage(price, length); Value3 = WAverage((Value1 - Value2), sqrRootLength); jtHMA = Value3; #function PercentR inputs: Length( numericsimple ) ; variables: HH( 0 ), Divisor( 0 ) ; HH = Highest( High, Length ) ; Divisor = HH - Lowest( Low, Length ) ; if Divisor <> 0 then PercentR = 100 - ( ( HH - Close ) / Divisor ) * 100 else PercentR = 0 ; #function WAverage inputs: Price( numericseries ), Length( numericsimple ) ; { will get divide-by-zero error if Length = 0 } variables: WtdSum( 0 ), CumWt( 0 ) ; WtdSum = 0 ; for Value1 = 0 to Length - 1 begin WtdSum = WtdSum + ( Length - Value1 ) * Price[Value1] ; end ; CumWt = ( Length + 1 ) * Length * .5 ; WAverage = WtdSum / CumWt ; %R wtih 2 HMA.txt

This should do what you are looking for. I dont have TS, but I do have OEC and got it compile in there. I had to add a couple functions that you will probably not need, but no big deal. I didnt do anything with coloring, that's a pretty basic thing. Hope this is what you were looking for. inputs: RLength( 14 ), OverSold( 20 ), OverBought( 80 ), price(Close), length1(20), Length2(40); variables: PctR(0), HMA1(0), HMA2(0); PctR = PercentR( RLength ) ; HMA1= jtHMA(PctR, length1); HMA2=jtHMA(PctR,length2); Plot1( PctR, "%R" ) ; Plot2( OverBought, "OverBot" ) ; Plot3( OverSold, "OverSld" ) ; Plot4(HMA1, "HMA1"); Plot5(HMA2, "HMA2"); #function jtHMA Inputs: price(NumericSeries), length(NumericSimple); Vars: halvedLength(0), sqrRootLength(0); if ((ceiling(length / 2) - (length / 2)) <= 0.5) then halvedLength = ceiling(length / 2) else halvedLength = floor(length / 2); if ((ceiling(SquareRoot(length)) - SquareRoot(length)) <= 0.5) then sqrRootLength = ceiling(SquareRoot(length)) else sqrRootLength = floor(SquareRoot(length)); Value1 = 2 * WAverage(price, halvedLength); Value2 = WAverage(price, length); Value3 = WAverage((Value1 - Value2), sqrRootLength); jtHMA = Value3; #function PercentR inputs: Length( numericsimple ) ; variables: HH( 0 ), Divisor( 0 ) ; HH = Highest( High, Length ) ; Divisor = HH - Lowest( Low, Length ) ; if Divisor <> 0 then PercentR = 100 - ( ( HH - Close ) / Divisor ) * 100 else PercentR = 0 ; #function WAverage inputs: Price( numericseries ), Length( numericsimple ) ; { will get divide-by-zero error if Length = 0 } variables: WtdSum( 0 ), CumWt( 0 ) ; WtdSum = 0 ; for Value1 = 0 to Length - 1 begin WtdSum = WtdSum + ( Length - Value1 ) * Price[Value1] ; end ; CumWt = ( Length + 1 ) * Length * .5 ; WAverage = WtdSum / CumWt ; %R wtih 2 HMA.txt

seems to have fixed the refresh problem. Thank you

Frank, Thanks for the code, just been toying around with it. However, I have noticed that if I add to a chart and let it go for a while, then refresh the data the line changes. Do you, or anyone, know what may cause this? TIA

Can you guys take this bickering back and forth back over to ET where it belongs? We get it, steve you dont think it works. Others do. Time to let it go. Why do each parties care what the other thinks??

what charting software are you using, I can easily send you 1 min data for the past couple of days if your charting software can read it.

Are you kidding me? It's Where's Waldo, would you really go to a site that had a cartoon as its spokesperson for trading advice??:haha: lol

Check out this guy's website:

That seems like a lot of work. If OEC doesnt have the right function, there is a simple way to do it: 1) Find function you need. This can be done via google pretty easy. Highlight function, select copy. Go Back to your code in OEC: 2) Right Click in Code 3) Select, "Insert Function" 4) Type in Name of function that OEC Is looking for. ( a lot of the times it does this automatically, but wont hurt to double check) That should add the function you need, and assuming no other errors, should compile. Here's is what an ADX indicator's code looks like when you use the function: inputs: Length( 14 ); ADXTrend( 25 ) ; variables: oDMIPlus( 0 ), oDMIMinus( 0 ), oDMI( 0 ), oADX( 0 ), oADXR( 0 ), oVolty( 0 ) ; Value1 = DirMovement( H, L, C, Length, oDMIPlus, oDMIMinus, oDMI, oADX, oADXR, oVolty ) ; Plot1( oDMIPlus, "DMI+" ) ; Plot2( oDMIMinus, "DMI-" ) ; Plot3( oADX, "ADX" ) ; #function ADX inputs: Length( numericsimple ) ; { this input assumed to be a constant >= 1 } variables: oDMIPlus( 0 ), oDMIMinus( 0 ), oDMI( 0 ), oADX( 0 ), oADXR( 0 ), oVolty( 0 ) ; Value1 = DirMovement( H, L, C, Length, oDMIPlus, oDMIMinus, oDMI, oADX, oADXR, oVolty ) ; ADX = oADX ;

Gave it a try, and was not successful. Was able to plot the two indicators in one pane, but there is no way ( at least from what I know) to tell one indicator to use the left axis and the other in the right axis. So one indicator will always be "smooshed" down. Maybe in a future release OEC will have that function. sorry.

I'll give it a try later today

Don't think there is a way to do this through OEC's built-in indicators. Try using there easy language capability to see if that will fit your needs.

Actually looks like he was talking about the YM, so ticks and points are one in the same.
