    I forgot to say that in some of yesterday's attempts I also found, in the same inside days' code I posted here but using StopSD, some unexplicable behaviors in bars AFTER the entry bar such as limit orders or stop losses not filled on a bar where they had been hit. I think now you can...

    My comment bothers you. The 700 bucks I paid bother me. A lot ! We are even. Beta testing: it is not up to me to see what works and what does not in your software. I have my work. Do yours. Sometimes we must be humble enough to understand that trying to reinvent the wheel makes more damage...

    .... in other words the current version can not handle properly the order placement for a strategy as simple as an inside day ! How can I trust it for more complex tasks ???? Frankly speaking I am a lot disappointed from what I saw today on my screen. I will see what happens with the new...

    I do not have excel. Ok. No limit order to take profit on the entry bar. What is the reserved word to place a stop loss on the entry bar ? You said you have special functions to do it. Can you post here the code you have written, so I can understand how to write this signal in the proper way ?

    If you could also insert in the code an example of the proper use of EntryDate. I tried " If Date=EntryDate then Print EntryPrice" but I failed. Thanks Murray !

    Hello Murray, I am NOT criticizing anything. I am simply asking ! :) To get accustomed to program effortlessy your software I decided to take inspiration from some of the patterns described in L.B. Raschke's book. By the way TradersStudio, as written in the manual, looks great for pattern...

    I have spent all the morning try to make things work. It seems that on the day of entry it is impossible even to have filled a simple stop loss placed 1 tick below the low of the inside day ...... :confused:

    It does not work. I have now divided the system in 2: one for the long and one for the short side. The long system places a stop order 1 tick above the inside day's high and a profit target ( limit order ) above the entry point. The profit target is hit but not filled ! It keeps getting out on...

    About the inside days code: I just tried to declare all variables as bar arrays but the result did not change. Most of the time it still exits on the next day's open :confused:

    Can anyone help me with this ? Thanks. As exercise I wrote a system to trade inside days. If today is an inside day I place an order to buy tomorrow 1 tick above today's high and a second order to sell 1 tick below today's low. I also place 2 profit targets for tomorrow and the next days...

    I feel I must apologize with our kind Murray - I do not want you begin to feel I am a pain in .... actually I love this software but, please, try to understand me, yesterday evening I was translating a function. Guess what ? In the help there is no mention of Julian dates ! Ok, I think I can...

    Now the semi log scale is the default setting for the charts. I have imported my intraday data but only for backtesting. Not for trading. It is not a real time platform. Not a big issue for me. These are really not big problems. I love this software ! It is very professional - what is NOT...

    ooppsss, sorry ! :D I wanted to answer that question but then I began thinking about the documentation and I forgot. No, it only translates from EL to TSudio Basic

    the translator and the code wizard are 2 different things. The translator translates from easy language to tradersstudio basic ( and it is included in the software ), the code wizard helps to write traderstudio code from scratch ( and it is a paid for addin ). I think they are both very useful...

    I would also LOVE to see some messages about how to debug a trading plan, ie have it to print the total equity and the number of contracts each time the latter change, for example, or similar. So far I only got a txt file with just one line of text !!! But I am pretty sure it can be done, at...

    While we wait that Murray comes back, I have a problem that probably can be easily solved by anyone. TradersStudio's language is very similar to TradeStation's but I have a "big" problem with limit orders. I was doing some coding as exercise and had the idea of writing a system to trade inside...

    Thanks Gyles and Murray, for JaiSreeram: if the issue is to buy or not to buy TradersStudio, the answer is that there is no doubt it is a very good software. Better than Trade Station. More complex and more versatile. Sincerely, I wish I had it when I began trading 20 years ago ! I own it...
