Windows XP was designed primarily for AMD Duron/Pentium III computers. Back in those days, they were incredibly stable, and ran only on one core. Vista was presumably meant to be a more bloated version of Windows XP. The idea presumably was that ...

Windows hasn't really managed to achieve this very well.

Multiple MT4 Clients open and charts freeze

In the task manager, right click on the process you want to set the affinity for (metatrader is "Terminal.exe") click on set affinity, then on the resulting screen, make sure only ONE core is checked for that process. If you check every core, then ...

I set mine down to 10,000 not 65,000 Also, open up the task manager (Ctrl + Alt + Del) and tell me how much ram and cpu all instances of "terminal.exe" is using.

Multiple MT4 Clients open and charts freeze

Metatrader is not a multi threaded application, so having multiple cores doesn't matter much unless you manually set the affinity. In tools > Options > chart, how many bars do you have in history?

Multiple MT4 Clients open and charts freeze

For the record, I have been working on that concept. The hard part is properly positioning that pending order.

Dynamic colors?

I'm looking at this picture you posted, and I'm seeing a lot of whipsaw. How are you handling that?

Great Idea for EA, coding needed.

webart, my responses in line. It's very kind of you Ace to post this system, when you could have just kept it to yourself. Do you think by making such a system public, that it will be detrimental to the system in the end ? Or maybe it will help the ...

4H Box Breakout

Perhaps I don't understand MODE_TICKVALE properly. My understanding is that MODE_TICKVALUE gives you the number of base currency units (let's say dollars) for one pip of movement. But what lot size is that value against? Is it MODE_MINLOT? or 1 or ...

Types of MM code?

You could technically get an EA to parse a template if the template is in the /experts/files folder. But why?

EA Loads a Template?

I managed to isolate the problem to too many simultaneous connections from one IP address. Seeing that that is the problem, how can I get these feeder EAs to write to a file, and then an uploading EA to push the ticks into the database at regular ...

MT4 Hot keys for Timeframe

The crash tends to happen after about 30 mins of use My guess is that there is something wrong with the reconnect function that I put into the code.

Community Tick Database

The error is in the sell-side Stoploss/takeprofit management. There is logic there saying if the current stoploss is less than the new proposed stoploss, the new stoploss takes effect. The problem is when the current stoploss is 0, and that's the ...

Generic Breakout V5

London holiday mixed with Japanese election. You practically stepped on a hornet's nest.

7am-9am Big Dog USD Breakout Strategy

More likely than not, the FF admins see that you joined this month, and therefore are a larger "ITC" risk than I--a 2 year veteran--am. ITC = "Intent to Commercialize"

4H Breakout With Custom Stop Loss

The difference Pharoah, is that those programmers are doing their marketing one on one. They are not broadcasting their services as openly as you might think. Just look through the recycle bin for examples on what the FF team doesn't like from us ...

4H Breakout With Custom Stop Loss

Programmers are not allowed to openly advertise their services. I cannot for example go on every thread and put a post saying that I offer programming services for such and such a price.

4H Breakout With Custom Stop Loss

That's true. In an effort to combat that, I'm going to try and get a set of 'feeder' members from various brokers. What the database is supposed to be doing is it averages the value of the tick, similar to how the FF price widget currently works.

Brand-spanking new tick database.
