Code:
var:	V_today(0),
	VPMO(0);
	
	
V_today = ticks * ( close - close[1] );


VPMO = avglist( V_today, V_today[1], V_today[2] );

if VPMO > VPMO [1] then SetPlotColor(1, blue)
else
SetPlotColor(1, red);

Plot1(VPMO, "VPMO");
plot2(0, "Zero");


note: I am using a simple average instead of an exponential average.


Tums, you are the MAN :)

Many thanks

Don't take me wrong -- it is not what I want -- because I can find the better thing to do with my time and I much prefer to just get my money back and shut up. [/B]


Sogdo,

Get some drinks. Find good hookers. Get laid. Let your juicy anger out. Sober up. Rethink what you wrote here. And then shut up.

I am tired of this guy.
 
I just signed up for the multi-charts 30day trial.
I am using IB for real time data feed.
I have managed to get a chart of the ESM8 up, but I can't get a back-fill on historical data.

Does anyone out there know how I cen get historical data on a 1 minute bar basis to fill in?

only a little frustrated:p

note edit:
To get backfill data, go to File --> Preferences..., Data Server Mode --> check the box for "Download missing historical data".
Look at the top of the chart, after the symbol, it should say "Backfilling...".

IB is a bit slow on backfills. Don't get upset on MC.


tips: on setting up the chart, don't request too many Days Back on first try. Start with 5 days, that's plenty for a 1m chart.

Also go to File, Preferences, Data Server Mode tab and make sure Download missing historical data is checked.
 
I switched to only 5 days of data, no change.
I will make sure file data preferences etc is checked , but believe me, I am pretty sure it is. I've been screwing with the thing for about 40 minutes running in and out of ALL the menus.

I have Trade Station on a different machine.
If I exported tradeStation data into an ascii and then tried to import it would that work?
