Hi All, Could anyone tell me the line of code that I would need to put into a strategy ( TS 8.6 ) which would instruct the system to not take any further trades today if at least X amount of profit has been generated today. Many thanks.

Hi All, I am looking to hire a coder to convert several MT4 files into TS Easy Language. Is there anyone here who would like to convert them for me, if so, please let me know and I will email them to you for a quotation. Many thanks.

Hi, and many thanks to you all for all your help with this so far. Blowfish, I put the code, exactly as you posted into ts and ran it on GBPUSD 5 min data. I attach 3 charts which are showing the problems I am having with this show me. ( Also plotted are the fast and slow moving averages ( the thick ones ) which change to green when both the slow and fast MAs are pointing up. ) I have market the charts with lines and put text at the places that the problems are ocurring, to make things easier to see, as previously suggested by Tams. Once again, many thanks for all your help.

Hi MrTraderGuy Yes, what I am looking for is a Bar A followed by Bar B Formation.... At Bar A either the fast or the slow average have a slope that is either down or level. At Bar B the slope of both the fast and slow averages are up, so on this bar the show me plot would be made. No further plots are made until a new bar A followed by a new bar B formation is made. Many thanks.

Hi Tams, sorry about the code box, I hit the quote box my mistake. I have put it down as you suggested, i.e. the code that almost works is shown.... The problem I have is that it is not producing the results that I want, as explained in my initial post. I am not a very good easy language coder at all, and can not get any further with it myself, hence my request for some help.

Hi, I am running a show me on TS 8.6. The idea is that it will plot a show me when both the fast and slow averages are pointing up, when on the previous bar, either the fast or slow average were not pointing up. The problem I am having is that once a show me is plotted, further plots are made, which I do not want, I only want the plot when both averages are pointing up, when on the previous bar either one or the other were not pointing up, then i do not want any further plots until at some time in the future, the obove occurs again. I attach a chart, with arrows showing where the plots should be, as the show me, which as you can see in not plotting correctly. Below is the code that I have. Many thanks for all your continued help guys.

many thanks for that jojojo

Hi 3monkeys, many thanks for your reply. Could you tell me how to alter the entry please. With the above code the entry is the high of the trigger bar + x number of points.... what I am looking for is to have the entry price at the high of the trigger bar, plus 50% of the range of the trigger bar. Again, many thanks.

Hi All, I coded the following indicator as a paint bar in easy language for use on forex intraday markets. What I am trying to get to is an indicator that will paint bars when they are in a narrow range, then look to trade a breakout of that range, i.e. when the white bars no longer plot. I though I would post it here for anyone that maybe able to make use of it and also to see if anyone knows of a better indicator than this for showing a range that can then be used for trading a breakout. Someone suggested an intraday Darvas Box would be better... I have searched for EL code for this, but am not able to find it. Any views as to a better indi..... Many thanks. RBF.ELD

Hi All, I am struggling to code the following for TS 8.6..... I have a simple moving average cross over system. The bar on which the averages cross should be deemed to be the Trigger Bar, i.e. fast average crosses over slow average, then this bar = Trigger Bar. What I am trying to do is then set an entry, which would be to enter at the high of the trigger bar plus 50% of the range of the trigger bar. The if the order is not filled within 5 bars, cancel the order, Below is a mix of the EL code and statements of what I want the code to do. Many thanks for all your continued help guys, it has been a massive help to me as an easy language newbee.

many thanks for you help guys, I took the 30 day demo of multicharts today as you suggested and it plots range bars fine.

Hi, My easy language coding is very very limited. I can do the basics, like add buy sell conditions to a function, but i simply would not even know where to start in order to create this. Many thanks.

Hi, I am looking to use them for a system. Being able to see them plotted would be a bonus. Do you think it would be possible to use your virtual range bars project with TS 8.6 ? Many thanks.

Hi Blue Ray, I got a reply from the company that provide owndata, at last. They say that owndata2 does not support range bars Etc for TS. Hopefully someone will know of an indicator that I can use to create range bars indicator from tick data. Many thanks for your help.

Hi, no it will not plot momentum bars either. I have tried every possible combination with the datafeed and ts settings blue ray, but they still will not plot. If anyone could point me in the direction of an indi that will construct range bars I would be most gratefull
