Hey, Yeah I'm using IB still. I haven't really had any major issues. The biggest problem I had was during 11-midnight CST the server resets cause it to go up and down 100 times but thats a pretty dead time anyway. I did have some slippage on gbp/jpy ...

250 pips slippage on Currenex - ODL Securities

Hey Symp, glad to see you are still alive and kicking. You are exactly right. Its hard enough to make money "fairly" w/o all the hidden traps these jokers set. Thats why right now I'm really down on spot fx. I don't have these issues trading index ...

250 pips slippage on Currenex - ODL Securities

What complete BS. Sorry you got screwed like that. This is the reason I like trading futures - the centralized market doesn't allow your broker to rape you like that.

MarcoW, what TF did you start at? M, W, D? Just curious what exactly you did. Thanks.

Thanks for the help guys. I was asking because I have an MT4 indicator I am converting to eSignal and eSignal has no "point" in it so I have to manually plug the info in.

Point value in MT4

Hmmm..... wonder about index futures such as ER2 where a point is 1 but is made out of 10 ticks (moves in .10 increments). I guess the "point" value for MT purposes would be .10.

Bag, I think he forgot to erase where it says Forex Factory and replace it with Forex-TSD (the website/forums). He posted that same post on Forex TSD forums. That is what caused the confusion.

There are thousands of great indicators and "systems" out there. Success comes down to the trader. There is no holy grail "system" - only systems that give good entries which this one does. The holy grail is money mgt/trade mgt. and how well you can ...

HAS Indicator - Misc indicators & EA's

Well my first live trade was a 20 pip winner on EUR this morning. Didn't get a signal to get out but closed at that point anyway because the market is so SLOW today and acting weird so I didn't want to push it. I'm still in cautious mode until I ...

Ok, cool. Looks like you already have what you need and I don't need to do it. I'll take a look over there. I love that website I must admit.

I don't think there is anything you can do except take a screen shot and post it - unless it lets you save it as a .pdf or something which I doubt. I don't trade in MT and just use it for some charts. On the alert- ok I will take a stab at it and ...

Hey, since you are only interested in the last bar, why don't we just put it on the HAS indicator itself instead of the Bar indicator? It will probably be much easier to code that way. As I understand it the HAS shows exactly the same thing as the ...

Steinitz, what do you want the alert to do exactly? Let me know and I will see if it's something I can do. While I come from a developer background, I am new to MQL. I have wrote maybe 5 other alerts so far and they work good. This one may be a ...

Steinitz, thank you for taking the time to explain some of this in detail. Your explanation of switching TFs on the chart itself makes sense. That was the part that was throwing me off and making me wonder what I was missing. Also thanks for the ...

Acetrader, thanks for the reply. I now understand about the mixed colored boxes and that I should stay out of the trade until they are solid. New question - in your example (15, 30, 1h, 4h) it sounds like you are not flipping time frames on the ...

Acetrader thanks for the reply. The one question I do have is lets say some of those timeframes have the multi color bar - like 15m is blue, 30 is blue, 1h is the mixed color box. Do you take the trade if the outside is red but inside color is blue? ...

Yes it woul dbe helpful if he was given his mod status back so he could organize the threads. That is the problem I am having right now with understanding everything completely. Once I understand the system totally I have no problem creating some ...
