Excellent references. My only thought is that my trades must be taken by retail limit order traders.

Great! Are you running into any issues? Lord knows there are a bunch when backtesting in EasySignal. I toast you globally with a Kirin Ichiban "Special Premium Reserve" brewed in Los Angeles.

I think you are trying to confuse a senile old man. Scripts won't run on tick data, that is, on a tick chart. So I guess you mean that you need a certain number of transactions to properly initialize the code on a fixed time interval chart. People used to bitch that ESignal took too long to load...

Plano, Texas, hands down. A sushi restaurant at every main intersection. Ten dollar champagne in the grocery stores. Thirteen cents per kilowatt hour electricity. No state tax. Cheap Messican labor for all your domestic needs. If you can't find the kind of woman here you like, well, you don't...

In all fairness, I must point out that there is an emerging trend toward Reverse Globulization. An example dear to me is that I drive a Korean SUV made in Alabama.

This thread is proof positive that ET posters have no life. My excuse is that I am backtesting (no life) and have 20 seconds between each iteration to make typical ET quality posts. Regarding truth in labelling in trading, all I know about my counter-parties is that they must be idiots to take...

That weather is foreign. Canadian. What brand of turkey dog food are the two of you eating? Look at the label to see where all the otherwise inedible animal parts came from.

I think you are on to something there. A quick scan of my larder reveals: Jamaican hibiscus leaves from Mexico Egyptian hibiscus tea bags from the Sudan Vermont maple syrup from Canada. In the New World Economic Order we won't know where anything came from.

Make of this what you will. I am batching it Turkey Day, the wife is taking care of a sick relation. The bad news is no turkey. The good news is I get to eat anything I want free of nagging that everything I like is bad for me. Hence the huge steaming hot biscuit dripping honey and sinful melted...

I exaggerated. A bit. EasySignal pays for them with that 20 line disvergeance code you are going to write. I run one on ES and NQ on a one-second chart. Utterly amazing to watch what happens. Highly reaminiscent of Jack Hershey's $INDU-ES dance. The trick is to find two magic numbers. One is the...

Yes. EasySignal is so flexible it can even be configured to give blowjobs.

Lose the volume bars. Study support and resistance. Then all will be revealed. In trading it pays not to try to be too cute.

Looks like a coin toss to me.

Hahahahahaha! http://www.marketwatch.com/story/ford-announces-conversion-offers-to-reduce-debt-2010-11-24

It was a great pleasure for me to be helpful rather than snotty. Feel free to ask any other questions you have on the joys of backtesting with ESignal. I have used it for over ten years and cursed it roundly every day.

Right click on the chart and select time templates. It probably says "The Defaults." Click on Edit and then expand The Defaults. It probably identifies the interval as "I-Default" for intraday. Go down and select the number of days you want in the chart and save it as a new time template. Apply...

Kindly tell us what you mean by "assigning 4 indices to variables," identify the time frame of the chart you are testing on, and tell us how you set up the time template.

I'll be the judge of that. The proof will be that you never again post why you took a trade. And that you eventually quit posting altogether because you figured out that posting winning trades exposes you to being reverse engineered, and ultimately faded.

A wise trader does not "share his perspective" on any element of his trading which contributes to his profitability, no matter how trivial it may seem.

Some kindly advice from an old man. I don't believe that it is widely accepteded that pivot/vwap convergence is significant. If you believe it yourself, why give it away? You have suggested it in an obscure forum, so maybe no harm done, if it IS significant. And think hard about whether you...
