Hi intermilan04,
This is, of course, not a one-size-fits-all situation. It is one of
the reasons a particular system designed to buy or sell *anywhere*
will produce somewhat varied results with varied instruments.
Liquidity varies from symbol to symbol and market to market. Make a
note of that.
Hello Yuki Taga,
I really enjoyed your post for several reasons.
I appreciate the code help given at the forum; it is invaluable, but
I also like to see broader trading issues discussed here.
As I make no secret of the fact in the forum that I am not a
classically trained trader, I appreciated y
Congrats to Yuki for posting nr 10. Look forward to the next 100k.

Hi,
I wrote a couple of custom indicators but when I insert them on a
chart sheet, the parameters window is blank. The indicator draws
properly below the chart. When I right click on it, and select
"Parameters", I see the parameter options properly.
Any ideas why this is happening?
Thanks

Hi Joe,
Yes! Still looking for help. One of the responses presented a
solution, but requires doing the CUM outside of AddToComposite and
thus requires plotting another pane for the resulting composite. I'd
rather plot the composite in the normal price pane, just like any
other.
Here's a link

As you found, Peak/Trough use the Zig-Zag function. The problem is the

The reason zig-zag looks into the future is because it "waits" for the

Yes. My system buys/sells at open since I still

I think it contribute to two factors: I use IB
