    Easylanguage help

    I am trying to add 1 contract whenever the previous position is profitable. Subtract 1 contract if the previous position is not profitable. I have tried the following code: if positionprofit(1)>0 then cts=cts+1; if positionprofit(1)<0 then cts=cts-1; The problem with this is that this...

    Easylanguage help/Is this possible?

    Say I have two entry signals, A and B. If A has a position on, no other A entries are allowed. If B has a position on, no other B entries are allowed. However, mixing A and B entires is allowed. (i.e., if A has a position on, B is allowed, and vice versa.) I need a way for Easylanguage...

    Tradestation calculation bug?

    don't know why you have such bad attitude from the start. have you tried my example? every bar plots 10 minutes except the last one which plots 11 minutes. try it. if you get different results, post here. has anyone else tried plotting it?

    Tradestation calculation bug?

    lol you know what they say. when you are hoping for something you see what you want to see. i'm not going to waste time arguing with you. do what you want. i have provided evidence of the error. it is an inconsistent plot within ts2ki, and ts8.1 will plot a different chart using the...

    i get it. do you? have you tried with ts2ki? plot the same data with ts 8.1 (as someone showed me) and you get different charts. the difference is that last bar.

    Tradestation calculation bug?

    i'm not confused. the ASCII file isn't raw tick data. it's 1 minute bars. tradestation takes 1 minute bars and then converts the 1 minute bars to 10 minute bars. so every time stamp in the ascii file is exactly on the the minute. there aren't any intra minute bars. in my example, for the...

    Tradestation calculation bug?

    yes the time stamps are at the end of the bar. however, i'm saying that even though the time stamp for the last 10 minute bar says 1730, it actually plots 1731's data too. the 1730 10 minute bar should plot 10 minutes of data from 1721 to 1730, but instead it plots 11 minutes of data from...

    Tradestation calculation bug?

    Here's another bug. Say you have 1 minute data in an ASCII file and you want to plot 10 minute bars. Set the session end time earlier so that the remaining data for the day is not plotted. Make sure that the session end time still falls on a 10 minute increment though. The last bar of...

    Tradestation calculation bug?

    I am using TS2000i. There appears to be a bug in the maximum drawdown calculation. Using one stop strategy, the number and location is calculated correctly. Using another stop strategy, the calculation and location is incorrect. I can't seem to isolate the problem. The difference is not...

    Were Delphi Bondholder's Dumb, stupid, or just Greedy ?

    also, in a chapter 11 the existing equity usually become worthless but the existing debtholders will usually get new debt and equity after the company emerges from chapter 11, so the existing debt is not worthless like the existing equity. also, if the company had to just liquidate all its...

    Were Delphi Bondholder's Dumb, stupid, or just Greedy ?

    many of the fundamental based hedge funds out there are just looking for opportunities where there is a strong catalyst with definitive dates. i can see why those types of hedge funds would want to get involved with the Delphi situation because it obviously has a strong catalyst and the timing...
