Investing and trading are totally different things. When trading I could really care less about the who, what, where, when, why, how. Just has to move. Now investing on the other hand is a completely different animal. Investing probably requires a little more in depth research of fundamentals. You think someone trading enron stock really cared that ken lay was lying? Maybe after the fact, but during times of trading the trader probably wouldnt care. Someone investing in enron would be, and should be, pissed that he was lying.

Might get some better and quicker responses if you post this in the actual esignal forums.

Why? You think this guy deserves to be protected? I dont think so, put his name out there. Hopefully someone looking to buy his "course" will use google and happen to come across this thread.

I dont have TS or RaderScreen, but couldnt you just change out where it says: FastMA = AverageFC(Price, FastLength); // test with simple moving average so others can try SlowMA = AverageFC(Price, SlowLength); to the DMI+ and DMI- logic? And then find where it says FastMA and and SlowMa and change that to whatever you name the DMI+/DMI-

some of us might be able to help but don't have access to TS's forums. Might get some better responses if you would post some code.

Sorry, thats over my head. Blu-ray has always been very helpful. Maybe he can get you started and then i could help out, as I have no idea how to start. Does an EL exist of what you are trying to do?

I dont use PVP, but I take it the hard coded .25 is for mainly the ES. I just added a mintick function so that it would work on all types of markets. I think that would help, but not exactly sure. Anyways, here it is: //PopStocks PVP Vars: Counter, Op(0), Ct(0), hh(0), f(0),mintick(0); Array: v[800](0), p[800](0); mintick=minmove/pricescale; If 1 = 1 then Ct =1+Ct; If Date > Date[1] or Ct = 1 then begin Op = Open-100; For Counter = 1 to 800 begin p[counter] = 0; v[counter] = 0; End; End; For Counter = 1 to 800 begin p[counter] = (counter*mintick)+Op; If Close = p[counter] then v[counter]= volume+v[counter]; End; hh = highestarray(v,800); if hh> hh[1] then f = close; Plot1(f);

you do know that TS doesnt build volume bars correctly? Makes you wonder if what you have here is actually just a coincidence.

67% of your post are in favor of TI, that's good stuff. There results page has nothing to do in real time. There's not one actual trading statement of someone taking there signals. Easy to put numbers in excel and claim that's what would have been done. TI, Franz, Felton, all those bullshit artist ( that's what they really are) are all full of shit. Selling a dream. Think about it; why would they sell a system that can generate hundreds if not millions of dollars for a measly $8k or whatever the hell it is. They could make so much more being a CTA, hedge fund, CPO, etc. Why dont they do that?? That's because then they would be governed by the NFA and CFTC and have to show ACTUAL trading results, not some bullshit on a webpage. What all these jokers offer, there is nothing that can't be found for free using google. I hope the OP saves his money and just does some basic research. Oh, and you said they won awards. Well yeah, so has Tradestation, and they are terrible.

Here you go: inputs: Length( 14 ) , Level(35); variables: ADXValue( 0 ) ; ADXValue = ADX( Length ) ; Plot1( ADXValue, "ADX" ) ; Plot2(Level,"Level"); #function ADX inputs: Length( numericsimple ) ; { this input assumed to be a constant >= 1 } variables: oDMIPlus( 0 ), oDMIMinus( 0 ), oDMI( 0 ), oADX( 0 ), oADXR( 0 ), oVolty( 0 ) ; Value1 = DirMovement( H, L, C, Length, oDMIPlus, oDMIMinus, oDMI, oADX, oADXR, oVolty ) ; ADX = oADX ; I did that using what multicharts supplies. When OEC calls for a function, go the MC power editor and find the function ( assuming its there). Highlight and copy that function, go back to OEC and right click and select "add function". It usually has the correct name already in there for you, but just double check. When you first apply this indicator make sure you select "create in new area" that is in the lower left corner.

probably help if you would post the code. You are basically asking someone to do it for you right now.

Tie Breaker for December, 2008 Post of the Month Contest
trader273 replied to Soultrader's topic in Announcements and Support
There's a poll there for a reason:doh: -
Tradestation and Esignal are absolutely dreadful, especially for the price. IQ feed isnt bad, but not exactly on budget for starting out. I'd look at a broker feed, which should be free for a live account or a very small fee for demo accounts. I recommend OEC, they have every bit of data you could ever want. But do your own DD.
-
Have you tried using Firefox? I think they have a built in RSS feed links. Also, I think they have some add ons you could use also. Just an idea.

or you know the "Secret" and dont want anyone else to know:security:

umm...ok Dont have any here at TL on ignore, but I think you may be the first, congratulations:cheers:. With the influx of newbies around here that feel the need to bump a post by saying "hi" or "wowzers thats really interesting", it's annoying as hell. I go my unread post and there are a bunch and about 99% are people like you bumping old old old threads with absolutely nothing to offer.
-
why did you dig up a thread thats almost a year old and not add anything of value to it?

95% of Traders Lose: Is this Stat Misleading?
trader273 replied to GCB's topic in Trading Psychology
Well I dont know too many traders that enjoy what they are doing if they are getting poor results. So, at least for traders, I would venture a guess that good results = enjoy what you are doing, bad results= not enjoying. -
I agree. If I actually got something out of the book I would have purchased it. But I really didnt find anything of value out of his book.

95% of Traders Lose: Is this Stat Misleading?
trader273 replied to GCB's topic in Trading Psychology
Well if you are dead, there is really no way to know if you would have ever been profitable. So maybe something like: Losers:93% Winners: 5% Dead: 2% Is this a serious question, if it is, wow....just wow...:doh: -
Its annoying more than anything. Either when old post ( over 2 years old) are being dug up from the grave with the ever intelligent, " this is really interesting" or when brand new posts are made announcing someone is new. Seems like half of the new posts are just someone "Saying hi".

Since he basically stole his indicators from the TS forums, do him a favor and find a free PDF version of his book if you are interested. Just using google for a minute would suffice.

Introduce Yourself Here - Don't Be Shy!!
trader273 replied to trading4life's topic in Beginners Forum
Welcome, hope you enjoy your stay. James- If you are reading this, is it possible to just create one thread where everybody says hello and all that stuff. I know there is a section devoted to introductions but since this three post limit has been in effect, most of the unread posts are just people saying hi. Instead of a new thread being started every time, why not just use one thread. That way the new threads aren't the same thing over and over again. -
wow, digging up things from the basement here. This thread is almost 2 years old, good luck getting those files.
