MultiCharts and Cumulative Delta Volume Analysis

Wanted to give everyone here a quick update in regards to MultiCharts. I have been looking for a charting platform to do some light back testing and simplistic automated trading for some new set ups I have been developing recently. After a review of what options were available it became pretty clear that MC would be a good fit (and they connect with DTN.IQ feed which I must use for proper Cumulative Delta work).

I was going to let everyone know that I have talked with MC and they are currently looking at building up the very simplistic code for tracking BID/ASK differential in the order flow for futures (Cumulative Delta Volume as candlesticks like we have with Investor RT Pro and some other platforms like NT7). If you are a MC current user and you want Cumulative Delta Volume within your platform then now is the time to chime in.

Wow, this ended up in the wrong area of the site. TL crew....if you want to move this over to the Automated Trading section that would be fine with me.....or where ever you think best.


TIA!

No....I have been using TradeVec now for several months for my order execution platform and it has been working great. TradeVec does not yet have the back testing capability I was looking for so that is why I have been talking with MS.

Chris, doesn't Investor R/T Pro have a back testing feature?

Good luck in getting this done Fulcrum. I tried doing the same over 6 months ago and even offereed to pay the cost but was told that they didn't have the time then. I'm working with MarketDelta now to get the testing done.

Re: MultiCharts and Cumulative Delta Volume Analysis

Hi Chris,

installed the MC trail 2 weeks ago and love what I see so far. Been using Ninjatrader / InvestorRT combo for years now and would like to drop the NT for a faster and more stable platform.

Hope the MC guys have an open ear for their customer requests and start to work on a Cumulative Delta add-on.
