i should clarify a bit further. what you have done you would not be able to do in a proper programming environment, and you have come stuck due to mql dealing with certain situations liberally instead of strictly enforcing type conventions. what you ...

Converting string to datetime

yeah of course. datetime is basically an integer. you are writing an integer value to a file in string format e.g. "123456789", then you are reading from the file this number and then pushing it to the strtotime function as that string of numbers ...

Converting string to datetime

why are you so concerned about this? i'm on build 225 2011.04.28 18:35:21 nbTestingOthersIndi EURUSD,M1: Alert: limit: 2 2011.04.28 18:35:20 nbTestingOthersIndi EURUSD,M1: Alert: limit: 2 2011.04.28 18:35:19 nbTestingOthersIndi EURUSD,M1: Alert: ...

IndicatorCounted() Twice all Bars?

you are definitely doing something wrong. StrToTime should be receiving a string in the format "yyy.mm.dd hh:mm", but in your example the pointA string just equals some number. i think you are likely going about this all wrong and making things ...

Converting string to datetime

not enough code to debug. it looks like your string is being updated somewhere along the way with a new value since the value when you send it back through strtotime has a larger number indicating a more recent time value.

Converting string to datetime

yeah as soon as i saw the other replies i realised i had myself backwards and upside down. oops. thanks for the credit btw... "yeah some nubcake told me this", lol

Divergence? What is really happening with buyers vs sellers?

but i think, maybe, somewhere in there i might have amongst my rants. i generally consider savings accounts to be around 5%, inflation to be a bit above that, and i think i see funds being considered anywhere from 10 to 30% as the rough benchmark. ...

What is your weekly return?

i could be wrong, but divergence is a measurement of how far price is expected to move before the majority decide that it has gone too far to reasonably move any further and so bull/bear momentum is expected to reverse. i believe the simplest way to ...

Divergence? What is really happening with buyers vs sellers?

thanks, and very nice post. this encompasses the main points of where i am at, where i hope to be heading, and the pitfalls i want to try to avoid (except i'm possibly already in that hole anyway. burn-out is a killer).

What is your weekly return?

i feel like a cheerleader for go or something. except, i'm not. not even close. i'm just a sensible person with a brain in my head who can reason and know to explore why i might be wrong before i go blaming everyone else... mud sticks people so stop ...

GoMarkets Discussion

i'm not sure if you are being serious, and for my benefit... because compounding is not something most people aren't fully aware of. the problem : i'm not interested in crawling for the rest of my life when i know and have seen others sprinting, and ...

What is your weekly return?

i would hazard a guess that perhaps your imagination is greater than most since the term has a very definitive meaning that doesn't encompass anything 'graphical'.

What is your weekly return?

No problem. I'm not selling anything so have no agenda but to push forward. I'm not butt-hurt if anyone disagrees with anything i say, because i will either see their point of view and agree, or see their point of view and also see why they are ...

What is your weekly return?

custos, this is probably the first post of yours that i can give any credit to. the faults i do have with what you have said is that most people don't know HOW to get an edge, or even what an edge might look like in the first place. also, on one ...

What is your weekly return?

you will either walk away, or you simply won't be able to let it go. there is no decision. this isn't a choice, it's a need.

The mental game!

notice how i don't, in reply, ask you if you are profitable? this is because i KNOW some members are profitable. i KNOW that some fluke profit, and some earn profit. i KNOW that some have what it takes to increase their capital by luck and some by ...

What is your weekly return?

nope. i have never said i was, and in fact have quite openly declared myself not to be. why? because i'm aiming for more than an insulting 50% ROI a year. I have seen it. when all others say that trading is impossible to live off of (by traders who ...

What is your weekly return?

ahah that explains the speedy init deinit. whatever the reason you can simply ignore it and it's due to mt4 setting up the indicator. it's simply mt4 inner black magic workings and getting itself set up to be ready to proceed in a more normal ...

IndicatorCounted() Twice all Bars?

i don't care enough to look back and confirm... but i think you have mistaken lasvahgoose with custos. lvg said way back that it's not sustainable, and this is something no one has ever claimed to be wrong. custos, on the otherhand, says a lot of ...
