eSignal 7.8 & 7.9

Quote from Diamondtrim:

I use your charting and market views for analytics, REDI Plus for execution and Trade-Ideas alerts for scanner. I want to set it up so that I can have my various portfolios be symbol lists inside Trade-Ideas without having to always change the symbols. Can you guys do that?

I thought Trade-Ideas already linked to symbols w/in eSignal. That's functionality that they would write since they have our API. Please check with them.

Thanks.

The formal beta for 7.9 will likely start in Feb of next year since the tentative due date for 7.9 is March 05. There are some hooks already in place for EFS2 but not visible to end-users. If you want to PM me your eSignal username, I'll see if Engineering wants another early alpha tester for EFS2.

Thanks.

Question...

I have eSig DDE working just fine...

I total a column in my DDE to one sum and was wondering is there a way with efs or something to bring in the sum total into an eSignal chart as a secondary symbol so i could see my sum total charted against other certain futures contracts...

Hi,

I'm no EFS expert (may want to post in EFS Forum on Central) but here's a KB Article on referencing a file for use within EFS.

Alternatively, here's a DDE Output KB Article in case you want to dump the result of an EFS into Excel (and perhaps do a simple chart in Excel).

If those articles don't fit the bill, I'd suggest searching the KB and the eSignal Central EFS forums for other related references.

Thanks.

It links great to eSignal Charts and level 2, but the issue is portfolios, they would need to know what is in my particular portfolio in order to do that. I see that functionality available in QT, but Trade-Ideas is a window you open from inside QT cause QT integrated their ActiveX control. That would be the best thing in my opinion cause then I would have eSignal as more of my desktop real estate and would not need to update TI symbols lists every time I changed something it would all be automatic.

Here's a nice shot of the new Price Ruler tool in 7.8. Just right-click a line or the line toolbar button to enable this.

eSignal can you answer my question.....
 
Diamondtrim,

I think I already suggested that contacting Trade Ideas is the best next step. They have our API so if you want some part of TI changed to support some feature w/in eSignal, you'd need to talk to them. If I'm not understanding the question, please elaborate further. We don't do the coding for 3p's, we just provide instructions and the tools via our API.

Or are you suggesting some API change on our part? If so, I can direct you to the proper forum on Central for that topic.

Thanks.
 
Could anyone please comment on two items. I've tried online support, email support, and a phone call; but to no avail.

1) point and figure charts aren't functioning properly. Terrell (I think that was his name) told me esignal is aware of problem, but never followed through with an answer.

2) the volume figures on the market profile volume histrogram are dreadfully inacurrate. For example, early today, ES #F showed 17k contracts traded at 1197.00. At the same time, 2 other softwares showed about 10k traded. The wierd thing is, one of the 2 were connected to esignals api. No matter what, the figures are way off.
 
1) I'm guessing that the PnF issue is caused by one of two things. Our PnF charts by default do not draw the X's and O's required to fufill the reversal amount, and will start drawing X's and O's once the reversal is successful. The more traditional approach is included, and this can be turned on by going to Chart Options --> Edit Studies, and then choosing Alternate Display. The other thing it may be is that the PnF chart waits to draw the appropriate X's and O's only after the interval has been closed. For example, if the interval is set to 1 minute, then the PnF chart can only update at the close of each one minute period. To work-around this, an interval of "1T" can be used.

2) Regarding the MP Volume issue, I would suggest reviewing this thread.
