MP on excel

Recommended Posts

Hello Ryker, first thank you very much for your excellent spreadsheet for MP. The graphic representation is very excellent.

 

I have tried to change the infos of your spreadsheet to put my data for 07/05/07 from 17:00pm until 17:00pm the next to get 24 hrs as it is EUR/USD on spot forex from my VT charts with the tick volume and it doesn't work:(

 

Do you know what I have done not correctly?

 

I have attached a copy of your excel sheet that I have modified.

 

If you can tell me what to do it would be much appreciated.

 

Sincerly

Hi Shreem,

I'm currently away from home (holidays :p) and can't really have a close look to your spreadsheet, I promise I'll have a look as soon as I come back next week.

Hi Shreem,

First I would suggest you to move to the latest version of the spreadsheets as I've done some improvements on it and will continue to add features in the future so I think better to use it.

Second try to use smaller window of data (from 7 to 17 for example), I tend to not use 24 hours data for currencies and split the day in 3 sessions (depending on the time I trade).

 

If anymore problems let me know and I'll have a closer look.

 

Thanks for the feedback.

I have been trading profitably now 17 years and currently use Ensign and Wave59 for my

realtime trading purposes. Unfortunely when it comes to Excel I don't know a thing! I installed

the add-ins as instructed but when I open the TL-MP.rar file I get gibberish. Obviously I'm doing

something wrong but have no idea what. Naturally I'm not asking anyone to give me a course

on the proper use of Excel, but would greatly appreciate it if someone could offer some advice on

getting started. I am very familiar with Market Profile (use to use WinDoTrader) and this looks like

an excellent tool. Thanks very much Ryker for posting it.

Hello Ryker, Still working on it and will get back on you when finish it. Right now, I am taking much time to put in application my learning about VSA and WRB and long shadow analysis.

 

As for now, putting a lesser timeframe for compiling data is the best solution.

 

I think you are right in trying to put 24 hours is too much.

 

I have a question though. In order to use this spreadsheet and get a day to day update, do I need to have a data feed vendor link to it?

 

If I am remembering correctly, I need this kind of data feed to use it!

 

If so, I do not have it:no:

 

Maybe, another way is to input data everyday in the spreadsheet manually.

 

Anyway, will get back on you when will get more time to look at it.

 

In any case, this is a very good tool that you have put to represent MP

 

Sincerly

Yes you'll need a data feed for it... I'm using Bloomberg for it but I've done it in a way that you can use any data feed you want but you'll need some work for it (not too much it's just a matter of updating a file every x minutes so not too difficult ;))...

You can input data manually if you prefer yes.

Humberto - I am not looking to swing trade - the trades I take - (not actual trades at this stage I must add - just theory) are all day trades. I am trying to put together a manual of my trading techniques. Unfortunately I feel I may have to ask a small price for this info - I have put alot of effort into it - and I will bundle it with an automated version of my MP learning tool. That is nowhere near ready yet however. I will post a pdfs of a few charts that highlight how you can trade without a value area. The main point is that the entire bell curve is either an acceptance level or it is rejected - that is about as specific as MP can get. I believe if you try to employ the 70% rule you will come unstuck. My opinion of course. You have to look for very high probability trades. You may want to look for a guy called Frank Butera at BalanceTrader. He has a video course that is quick cheap all things considered. I was a little disappointed at first with the depth of the course but with retrospect I think his actually focusses on the inportant points of MP and discards the esoteric. Take a look. It is worth it.

 

Thanks for the info Bobajob- would you mind elaborating a little more on the balancetrader info? What I have read on the site seems interesting enough- but just curious what you had to say about it.

Hi, I’m wondering if anybody could help me. I would like to use these charts in conjunction with Strategy Runner, which is a trade platform for futures and includes charts (normal bar and candle charts with various studies). I’m certainly no expert when it comes to using excel, but I have been able to connect SR with Excel so as it displays last traded price. Now, here’s where I get stuck, in fact I just simply don’t know what to do next. The data is coming in to one spread sheet, how do I get it into a MP sheet? How do get this data to arrange itself correctly in MP format?

I have been able to download and open the TL-MP.rar file(s) and it looks great, and I can appreciate not only the hard work that has gone into it, but also the fact that it’s freely available. I’d love to be able to put data into it, but as I said above.....I haven’t a clue ! I can get the data, but how do I copy it ? How do I put that data into the file called symbol.csv ? do I need a program to update this file ? if so what program seems to work for everybody else?

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated, and I apologise for my stupidity when it comes to these things!

Regards, LJD

Unfortunately if you want to do that you would have to program a bit... Excel is not always the best platform to handle realtime datafeeds (Bloomberg offers a download of historical intraday data, this is what I'm using) but it can be done (VBA is not very hard).

I think, somedody on this thread is using another datasource which looks to be great for an use with excel, you could try this one?

I am curious and want to learn but don't want to invest into something I don't understand and complex.

I think the free excel format is a great start for me to have an opportunity to study and learn what's MP is all about.

Hi Wow,

Unfortunately this isn't free, you must have a bloomberg terminal to be able to do that (I've got one at work)...

 

thanks Ryker.

Is that anywhere I could obtain free delay or end of day datas that I could use and learn from?

 

Very much appreciated.

Hi,

I know that you can access data from a webpage and download it to the spreadsheet with quote.com, I'm not sure on how to do it and I think it's not free.

For free data delayed or not I've no idea... For forex it should be easy but for futures?

Depends if you're a bit confident with VBA or not and if you're following just one symbol there is a way to have a file updated automatically.

Or you'll have to enter values manually :(.

Ok, I joined the spreadsheet.

 

Please note:

  • You can plot many days as long as you have data (not too much because of restrictions in excel).
  • This is note the last version but as I'm still working on it and have made a lot of changes in it, I can't share it for now. Probably in the near future :).

 

Waiting for your feedbacks,

Thanks

 

Hi Ryker,

 

I actually just had a look at your spreadsheet. (Im out of date) I am extremely impressed and have no clue how you managed to do this. I trade the Nikkei so will need to tweak this accordingly. Is there a way to plot a composite profile? Or save day by day profiles on the same sheet?

 

Thank you very much for this.

Hi may be it is not the appropriate thread but because I've seen some experts in Excell DDE spreadsheet, I' asking you something probably very simple:

I need to make on Excell a simple Time & Sales with price & volume scrolling, (a Tape) and possibly also a filter to the volume (>10lots)

 

I use MultiCharts software feeded by IQ Feed but I don't have a Tape to read.

Unbeliveble a software like MC doesn't have T&S!!! they don't want even introduce it in the future!

 

That's why I'm trying to make it with excell.

Tks in advance for any helps.

 

Good trading

 

PS. I'm new to TL, I found it a very good place for traders, tks Soultrader

Thanks :), I have to say that when I started to work on the spreadsheet I never thought that I could have that...

 

I'm not sure to understand what do you mean by a composite profile or day by day profiles?

 

Thanks

Do you know if DDE is available with your feed? Not everybody give this possibility?

If yes, I think what you would like to do will be quite easy to do in Excel.

 

Let me know.

    • Date: 29th March 2024. GBPUSD Analysis: The Pound Trades Higher But For How Long? The global Stocks Markets are closed due to Easter Friday (Good Friday). The NASDAQ continued to follow the sideways trend while other indices again rose. The SNP500 reaches an all-time high, but the NASDAQ remains under pressure from Tesla, Meta and Apple. The Euro continues to trade lower against all major currencies including the US Dollar, Euro and Japanese Yen. The British Pound is the best performing currency during this morning’s Asian session. However, investors are largely fixing their attention on this afternoon’s Core PCE Price Index. GBPUSD – The Pound Trades Higher but For How Long? The GBPUSD is slightly higher than the day’s open and is primary due to the Pound’s strong performance. At the moment, the British Pound is increasing in value against all major currencies. However, the US Dollar Index is also trading 0.10% higher and for this reason there is a slight conflict here. If investors wish to avoid this conflict, the EURUSD is a better option. This is because, the Euro depreciating against the whole currency market avoiding the “tug-of-war” scenario. The GBPUSD is trading slightly lower than the 2-month’s average price and is trading at 49.10 on the RSI. For this reason, the price of the exchange is at a “neutral” level and is signalling neither a buy nor a sell. The day’s price action and future signals are possibly likely to be triggered by this afternoon’s Core PCE Price Index. Analysts expect the Core PCE Price Index to read 0.3% which is slightly lower than the previous month but will result in the annual figure remaining at 2.85%. The PCE rate is different to the inflation rate and the Fed aims for a rate between 1.5% to 2.00%. Therefore, even if the annual rate remains at 2.85%, as analysts expect, it would be too high for the Fed. If the rate increases, even if only slightly, the US Dollar can again renew bullish momentum and the stock market can come under pressure. This includes the SNP500. Investors are focused on the publication of data on the UK’s gross domestic product (GDP) for the last quarter of 2023: the quarterly figures decreased by 0.3%, and 0.2% over the past 12-months. This confirms the state of a shallow recession and the need for stimulation. The data, combined with a cooling labor market and a steady decline in inflation, increase the likelihood that the Bank of England will soon begin interest rate cuts. In the latest meeting the Bank of England representatives did not see any members vote for a hike. USA500 – The SNP500 Rises to New Highs, But Cannot Hold Onto Gains! The price of the SNP500 rises to an all-time high, before correcting 0.33% and ending the day slightly lower than the open price. Nonetheless, the index performs better than the NASDAQ which came under pressure from Tesla, Meta and Apple which hold a higher weight compared to the SNP500. For the SNP500, these 3 stocks hold a weight of 9.25%, whereas the 3 stocks make up 14.63% of the NASDAQ. The SNP500 is also supported by ExxonMobil’s gains due to higher energy prices. The market will remain closed on Friday due to Easter. However, the market will reopen on Monday for the US and investors can expect high volatility. Investors will also need to take into consideration how the PCE Price Index and the changed value of the US Dollar is likely to affect the stock market next week.
