As mentioned before, I have been steadily reading through a parade of books in an effort to bring myself up to speed on automatic trading. The latest one is...
I thought I would mention a handy use of the SystemDesigner (aka drag-and-drop (DnD) surface). You can place indicators on the DnD that are not tied into a...
As of now, most if not all of the RightEdge samples presented are in C#. Most will get converted to Visual Basic and where applicable, drag and drop. For...
This note is to follow-up on a comment I made in an earlier post about the desirability of having "Save Trading System As . . ." change the name of both the...
This is a site that purports to translate Easy Language to C#. (Found on an Elite Trader forum. As stated on the forum, most of the errors that are reported...
Billb, you released a clever bit of programming, Dialog.zip, on the RightEdge forum. Well past my unsophisticated level of knowledge. Rather then usurp that...
Glad you're enjoying it. I used a combination of Visual Studio and RightEdge. I used VS for the dialog design and wiring up the event handlers. Basically...
Thanks Bill. I have been unable to show the dialogs in design view under C# 2005 Express. Could this be because I have not created a project or solution to...
I'd say that's very likely. Create a new solution and add all of the files (*.cs and *.resx) to the solution. My express version is no more, but if that...
A couple of posts back I mentioned Collective2 <http://www.collective2.com/> . It's a source of thousands 'black box' strategies mostly offered on a ...
Yes, I'm not a fan of black box either (I'm not sure anyone who's interested in RE is, since we're all do-it-yourselfers), but one item we've made possible is...
Your suggestion would enable some remarkably flexible solutions, all the way from 'black box' to shades of gray or even fully disclosed, albeit possibly under...
Happiness is when the pieces start to fall into place. The latest build (313; RC1) from RE has fixed some previously vexing problems and added a critical...
Hi, I trade futures, mainly S&P, ND, ES, NQ, Crude, bonds, intraday. I want to code and backtest a few systems with about 2 years of 5-min data. Can I do this...
When you set the profit target, a limit order is sent to the broker immediately, with the Good Till Cancel flag set to true. If the percentage parameter is...
Thanks Daniel. That is a very nice answer. My code remains simple and straight forward as it is. A good example of where you have succeeded in relieving client...
Hi Deosaran, Interesting list of instruments. What broker would you use? Are you a C# or VB programmer? Do you already have those historical bars, and thus...
There is nothing like real money on the line to make you focus on how things are going. Besides tinkering with the filtering, I found a number of (subtle)...
The list of positions is not guaranteed to be in any particular order. You will need to sort the list yourself if you want to find the oldest or newest ...
If it hasn't been mentioned before, let me make a request for a capability in release 2. It would be nice to have "System Results" available for live runs....
Theoretically, you can do this yourself already. The SystemData class hold collections of BarStatistics that are updated (added to) each bar. You can iterate...
Bill, I am certainly happy to hear that what I am asking looks feasible. Those words may come back to haunt you, I suppose. However, just to be unmistaken, ...
There is a glitch in RE at the moment where it can't restart with previously opened positions in certain circumstances. For a 'swing' trader that is no big...
There is nothing like real money and live trading with RE to ferret out the knarly places. Why it took me long I don't know (naturally slow may the answer),...
