Trade Visualizer Description: This indicator depicts your trade with a line on the chart. The line will start from the entry time/price, and extends to current/exit time/price. The line will re-position itself to follow the up/down movement of the price. If you make money, the line will appear green. If you lose money, the line will appear red. This indicator is for current day use only. It maybe used in real time, or at EOD. note: This indicator is for intra-day charts only. note: MultiCharts version supports sub-minute resolution. Intructions: 1. TRADE.CONCLUDED: default at FALSE. Set to TRUE when trade is done. 2. LONG1.SHORT2: If it is a long trade, enter 1, if it is a short trade, enter 2 3. Type in the Entry Tme and Entry Price, 4. Ignore the Exit Time and Exit Price for now. 5. SHOW.EXTENSION: Default is "True" to view the line with extension 6. DATE.OFFSET: +/- 1 if you are in a different date zone than the exchange. note: MultiChart users: the Time format is hhmmss note: TradeStation users: the Time format is hhmm When the trade is concluded: 1. Change TRADE.CONCLUDED from False to True 2. Plug the Exit Time and Exit Price into the indicator, The line will hold its place on the chart. If you want to track another trade, simply apply another copy of this indicator. Comments and enhancement suggestions are welcome p.s. The PLA file is for MultiCharts, it is usable in sub-minute charts. TraderStation version can only be used in minute charts. If you do not know how to import the code into your software, please invest 5 minutes in your user manual. p.s. I have not tested this indicator in TradeStation. If you found it works, you are welcome to post the ELD. Enjoy ! Trade_Visualizer_(MultiCharts).pla Trade_Visualizer_(TradeStation).txt

is that how Taylor would do it?

Using ADE to extract data from another chart

ELD file format is for TradeStation and MultiCharts. It will not run in MT4. Do a Google search, I remember someone has done a conversion for MT4. (It might even be here in TradersLaboratory?)

I don't spend any time on studying the gaps. I found it is more productive to monitor the pre-market from 6:30am ET. each to his own... whatever works for you is good for you.

"Gap Filling" is part of the market oscillation, i.e. a continuation of market action.

"Overnight" is a long time to make generalized conclusions. I would say... RTH is often an extension of the trading action from 6:30am to 9:30am.

Using ADE to plot previous day's OHLC on the first bar of a minute chart.

@ is a skip character in EasyLanguage. It is ignored during compilation. Samuel Tennis put an @ in front of all the function names for easy identification. The story goes that the Cruz brothers removed them without first discussing with Samuel.

good for you keep up the good work!

microtrader takes tiny bit out of the market macrotrader takes bite out of the market don't use macro analysis to do micro trades, and vis versa

you have to decide whether you are a microtrader or macrotrader...

bloomberg Bloomberg.com: Economic Calendar

have you observed any differences? can you post a chart example? maybe different time of the day will behave differently? I don't know. would opening trade behavior different than midday? I think it is worthy of a study.

you must have another indicator drawing those arrows. right click on the arrow, you will see the name of the indicator drawing those arrow. Good luck.

are you using the code I posted in this link? http://www.traderslaboratory.com/forums/f56/how-create-eld-plot-vertical-lines-5956.html#post65451 did you modify it in any way?

ok, let me ask the question in another way. about the screen shot, was that indicator applied during market hours? or EOD.

are you plotting it at the EOD? or during market hours?

computers are dumb, you have to tell it specifically what to do... ;-) otherwise it will repeat itself until... LOL... it dies. the attached code should have solved the problem.

This thread is about the PRINT keyword in EasyLanguage Print Sends one or more specified expressions to the PowerLanguage Editor Output Log or another output target, if specified. Any combination of string, true/false, numerical series, or numerical expressions can be specified. Usage Print([OutputTarget],Expression1,Expression2,etc.) Parameter inside the square brackets is optional Parameters OutputTarget - an optional parameter; specifies an output target other then the PowerLanguage Editor Output Log; the parameter must be followed by a comma. There are two optional output targets: Printer Specifies the default printer as the output target. File("PathFilename") Where: PathFilename - a string expression specifying the path and filename Specifies an ASCII file as the output target; if the specified file does not exist, the file will be created. If OutputTarget is not specified, the output will be sent to the PowerLanguage Editor Output Log. Expression - a string, true/false, numerical series, or numerical expression; any number of valid expressions, separated by commas, can be used A string expression must be enclosed in quotation marks: "String Expression" A numerical expression can be formatted to specify the minimum number of characters, including the decimal point, and the number of decimal places, to be used for the output: Expression:C: D Where: C - minimum number of characters D - number of decimal places The default output format for a numerical expression is two decimal places and a minimum of seven characters. If the number of decimal places in the numerical expression is more than the specified number, the value will be will be rounded off to the specified number of decimal places. If the number of characters in the output is less than the specified minimum, leading spaces will be added to bring the output to the specified minimum value. Examples Print(.1); will print 0.10 in the PowerLanguage Editor Output Log, with three leading spaces inserted Print(1.555555:6:3); will print 1.556 in the PowerLanguage Editor Output Log, with one leading space inserted Print(Printer,"Print Test"); will send the string expression "Print Test" to the default printer Print(File("C: \test.txt"),CurrentDate,CurrentTime); will save the output of CurrentDate and CurrentTime to the test.txt file in the root directory of the C: hard drive .

[edit] I have reworked the code. pls see attached. you don't have to input the date, this code will draw the arrow on current day's chart. you will need to input the time in 24hr format. e.g. 10:00 am is 1000 1 pm is 1300 p.s. you have to enter the time in the chart's resolution time. ie. if you have a 5 min chart, all the time entries must be rounded to 5 minute intervals. I have added two more input: arw.point.down if you set the arw.point.down to true, the arrow will point down. if you set the arw.point.down to false, the arrow will point up. arw.size i have set the default to 18. . arw_drawing_example.txt

can you post a screen shot of how the indicators don't work with ema cross? many thanks
