    Hi,

     

    I would argue that pivot points are self fulfilling? The exact numbers are relevent. I would have assumed that most people will either be looking at either April or May values to calcuate them, and not a combined 'equalized' value of the two?

     

    Lets say we use a continuation chart that has flipped from April to May today, then do you think the daily pivot points should be calculated from yesterdays April HLC/3, or May HLC/3?

    The same question to be asked on the weekly chart. Do we look at the last week's candle for April or for May when performing these calculations?

     

    Thanks

    Hi all,

     

    I am programming my trading system to plot pivot points. However, I am not sure what to do on the day / week that rollover occurs?

     

    When April Rolls into May on a continuation chart, do you think I should be plotting:

     

    April's previous day pivot or May's previous day pivot?

    Previous weeks pivot from April data, or previous weeks pivot from May data?

     

    Thanks

    Hi all,

     

    We have just signed up to CQG after having a month or so testing and I was wondering if anyone else on the forum has CQG? I would like to get in contact with fellow CQG users to help each other with issues with coding indicators or any other problems they have with the system.

     

    I figured 2 heads are better than one and would be happy to hear from anyone that is trying to code indicators / conditions etc for this package, so that we can pick each other's brains, share ideas etc.

     

    Please private message me, or simply reply to this post!

     

    Thanks

    Papa.

    I've got the following in 'pseudo' code. There's an error in it and I don't know what. I'm not sure whether I can create new Variables like 'TRH' on the fly in CQG (or if ':=' is even what that means!!) Also, I'm just using CQG's exponential moving average which i suppose is going to be different to the Wilder one Colin Twiggs has designed his indicator using. There must be better CQG coders out there. Please help!!!

     

     

     

    TRH:= Maximum( High(@), Close(@)[-1])

    TRL:= Minimum( Low(@), Close(@)[-1])

     

    TAD:= ((Close(@)-TRL)-(TRH- Close(@)))/((TRH-TRL)/ Vol(@))

     

    adEMA:= MA(TAD,Exp,period)

    vEMA:= MA(Vol(@),Exp,period)

     

    TMF:= adEMA/vEMA

    Hi all.

     

    Looking at this thread It seems that it's been coded in Easy Lanquage, and Ninja Trader has it, but no luck finding it for CQG so far.

     

    Has anyone got this for CQG, or know anyone that might be able to code it?

     

    Thanks

    Papa.

    It seems it was just a scaling issue. The scaling had gone a bit wild, ( i think that's what it is anyway!)

     

     

     

    I've uploaded the pac for anyone to import and test.

     

    If people have any other charting packages could they please test my CQG version of CMF against another package to see if the values are the same?

     

    Thanks

    Hi,

     

     

    Thanks, I found the param bit that was causing me grief!! :-)

     

    I've come up with this now....

     

    Sum((((Close(@)- Low(@))-(High(@)- Close(@)))/(High(@)- Low(@)))* Vol(@),period) / Sum(Vol(@),period)

     

    It's strange. At times it seems to look like reasonable values (i.e. +0.30, -0.25 etc), but the you change the timeframe or look back into the past and the values go very wrong! +9,500 as an example.

     

    It should literally be the Accumulation distribution / volume for the same lookback period. Really can't figure out why it's not working as it should. Any ideas?

     

    Obviously I've done something wrong, just don't know what!!

     

    Thanks

    Papa

    Me again....

     

    I've coded the following CMF which seems to work.....

     

    Sum(A_D(@) ,period) / Sum(Vol(@) ,period)

     

    This seems to work with no syntax errors, but the 2nd condition in the sum brackets automatically changes in the code from 'period' to '8' when pasting the above line into the custom study formula box .....

     

    Sum(A_D(@) ,8) / Sum(Vol(@) ,8)

     

    And I have no options once the study is in place to change the period. it seems fixed at 8.

     

    If you could ask your friend if he knows why, that would be great.

     

    Also, could you ask him what the '@' signs means? Does that just mean 'value'?

     

    Thanks again.

    Thanks Soultrader. It's appreciated.

     

    I'm just having a play around with it now. I guess I will have to attempt to learn it somehow and code these studies myself. Hopefully you'll be able to find some of them. Fingers crossed!!

     

    Very suprised they're not included though.

     

    I'll wait to hear from you before I make an amateurish attempt!!

     

    Thanks again

    Papa.

    Hi all,

     

    I've just started using CQG, from previously using eSignal. I do like the look of CQG so far. However, I'm used to having the esignalcentral forum to discuss indicators - most of which seem to already be in the program or easily downloaded from people sharing in the forums there.

     

    However, I can't for the life of me find an equivalent CQG forum until finding TradersLab. Any ideas where I can get the following indicators in CQG or if there are any CQG dedicated forums out there??

     

    Chaikin Money Flow

    Money Flow Index

    ATR based trailing stop.

     

    Appreciate any help or direction.

     

    Cheers

    Papa.
