  1. the data3 is really optional. It is not directly related to the operation of the indicator. you can set up the indicator alone like this: Also, instead of 1 min for the data, you can try 5 tick bars, etc. .
  2. put a 50+ MA on it... when the ADX breaks, it will most likely break in the direction of a medium term MA. may I recommend this MA with extension: http://www.traderslaboratory.com/forums/f46/moving-average-with-extension-5642.html
  3. see my note here: http://www.traderslaboratory.com/forums/f56/array-easylanguage-5785.html#post64333
  4. I use 50 XMA. You can use any that suits your purpose.
  5. you can see which program is hogging your CPU
  6. we can talk about your computer problem here: http://www.traderslaboratory.com/forums/f114/how-to-trash-a-computer-5919.html#post64506
  7. if your computer is running slow... you might need more memory. 1. call up your Task Manager... and check your memory usage.
  8. is your computer driving you crazy? don't trash your computer yet... maybe all it need is a minor adjustment, or a small upgrade.
  9. Je suis désolé mais je ne comprends pas. Je comprends un peu. Pouvez-vous parler plus lentement ? I took one year of German and one year of French in high school. That was a long time ago... LOL. Don't try me. If you are applying the sound to a 1 min chart, you will get a lot of hits. you can add one more counter: var: order.filled(false); if soundon and play.once <> currentbar AND order.filled = false then... once the order is filled, the sound will stop.
  10. What do you mean by vocal chaotic? men's voice changed to boys'? jk... do you mean the sound kept playing non-stop? I have never tried sound in a strategy, I thought it should work the same. have you added the intrabarpersist in front of the variable?
  11. 2 stddev.... that should do it. LOL you got the idea on the right track, it depends on what you are doing.
  12. I am not sure if I understand what you want. can you list out the operation one action at a time?
  13. let's start a new thread on computer optimization.

    if you take a screen shot of your live 1-tick chart, then close down the charting software, reboot the computer. When you re-start your computer and call up the same 1-tick chart again, the chart might look different than the screen shot you have taken earlier. :-(
  15. with the play.once counter, the sound will only play ONCE per bar. if you have difference sounds and different conditions, you can use diffferent counters. e.g. var: play.once.up(0), play.once.dn(0), play.once.buy(0), play.once.sell(0), ... etc.,
  16. you can set the ma through calibrate.avg.length. the default is 3 period sma.
  17. ask a hundred people... and you will get a hundred "resistance". how to trade break out? depends on how you define resistance. if you draw enough lines on the chart, sooner or later, the price is going to hit it. sorry I seem so unhelpful... but I really think you are digging into a rabbit hole that gets nowhere. to borrow a line from a seasoned trader: "The question is not whether if the trade will go in your direction, the question is... what if it doesn't." you really need to look one step beyond your question: 1. what if the price hits your resistance... then retreats. -- at what point are you going to say: "fk it, that's a false breakout!" 2. what if the price breaks out, then retreats back to your entry point. -- are you going to hold? or are you going to bail? -- what are the basis of your decision? 3. what if the price comes near your resistance... -- what will make you say: "this is going the other direction, I am changing my analysis!" if you can answer these questions... you can trade any resistance/support.
  18. ARH... SORRY... I missed one little keyword. I have highlighted it in red below: input: soundon(true); var: [b][color="Red"]intrabarpersist[/color][/b] play.once(0); if Value1 > Value1[1] and soundon and play.once <> currentbar then begin playsound("C:\soundfiles\support 1 mn.wav"); play.once = currentbar; end;
  19. The playsound is repeated... because every time a tick came through, the conditional statement is evaluated. if the condition is true... then the Playsound statement is executed. to make the sound play once only, you have to add a few things... input: soundon(true); var: play.once(0); if Value1 > Value1[1] and [color="Red"]soundon and play.once <> currentbar[/color] then begin playsound("C:\soundfiles\support 1 mn.wav"); play.once = currentbar; end;
  20. DOM Wall -- Excel / InteractiveBrokers author: PointOne Instructions: 1. open file, do not allow macros or updates 2. select all worksheet tabs 3. Find-Replace myID -> your user id, replace All (there should be 27 replacements). Save, close, open, allow macros and updates. Resize the window and position however you want. The Excel charts remain responsive to modifications and there should no longer be any VB error messages. es-dom-et1.xls

  22. I think there are already a few threads on that. but you can always start a new thread. ;-)

    IntraBarPersist Used in variable and array declaration statements, before a variable or array name, to specify that the value of the variable or array elements are to be updated on every tick. If IntraBarPersist is not specified, the value will be updated at the close of each bar. Usage Declaration: [intraBarPersist]Name(InitialValue1) Examples Declare Max as a numerical variable, updated on every tick, with the initial value of 100: Variable:IntraBarPersist Max(100); Declare Max_Price as a 24-element single-dimension numerical array, updated on every tick, and with data elements' initial values of 0: Array:IntraBarPersist Max_Price[23](0); source: EasyLanguage Manual
  24. you can configure the sound criteria in ALERT. pls see attached. .
