There you go MrTrader.
I have to say, you were very polite in your request...

@KST oscillator:  28 Aug 2013, 12:18

The blue line is just the 9 day EMA of the KST you can add it on the chart, but you can include it in the code as well.

Add the following to the code:

...

[Output("Ema", Color = Colors.Blue)]
public IndicatorDataSeries Ema { get; set; }

private ExponentialMovingAverage ema;

...

  protected override void Initialize()
  {

   ...

 ema = Indicators.ExponentialMovingAverage(Result, 9);

}

public override void Calculate(int index)
{
            Result[index] = ...
            Ema[index] = ema.Result[index];
}

Thank-you for the help.

I did not know if I should start a new thread with my question or post in here.

I would like to have a spread indicator on my chart (I used to use spreadwidener on MT4) and found "Draw spread", when I add it to the chart it is not displayed properly as you can see in the top left corner.

The numbers are covered by the word spread.

When I open the custom indicator box, nothing is clickable, there is no way to change the colour of the font or to adjust the font so that it is readable. Any ideas?

Hi,

Can you send things like arrays or variable integers, doubles etc this way between robots?

Can you please add an example of a robot sending information such as a array or if thats not possible perhaps just text or integer  to another robot.

Also at the moment I want to communicate with a SQL database would I use pipes for communicating between the SQL server and the Robot?

@TimeFrame question:  05 Sep 2013, 17:37

Hi bp,

Thanks for your reply. 
I understand what you are saying and your code, I also thought about it and tried it in the code but it still does not produce results under certain time-frames...
I think as far as the definition of the indicator is concerned it shouldn't be based on daily time-frame. The definition of MACD also says 12-day Ema - 26-day ema... but the calculation is not on daily time-frame only. 
I will test more cases with such indicators and post here again.

@TimeFrame question:  05 Sep 2013, 14:41

Hello,

On the newly added feature for multi time-frames, if I have an indicator which is the daily moving average of a formula that uses H-L-C, I understand that the H-L-C needs to be of the daily series but do I also need to translate the index each time?
Specifically, I am trying to create the Chaikin Oscillator see definition at wikipedia.  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accumulation/distribution_index

So, this is what I came up with according to my understanding. See uploaded algo here:
/algos/indicators/show/329

But, it does not display nothing for certain time-frames.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

I'm running cAlgo 24h/7d on my laptop for 3 months now.

I made the robot send me an email every 30 minuts to notifiy it is still working. I sometimes use TeamViewer to login to my laptop from elsewhere.

No problems. and 0$ spent.

You don't get the updates? cAlgo needs to restart when there are updates. 

@Donchian Channel Error:  29 Aug 2013, 15:24

Actually, 

The selected period does not include the day on which the band is plotted (otherwise the band would never be crossed). For example, the 20-Day Donchian Channels for today are the highest high and lowest low for the preceding 20 trading days.

Hi, I am new to this and could be mistaken but it seems MT4 allows you to choose any start date in their strategy tester but the report never shows any trades prior to 07/2010.

Hi Balena,

Run this code and change TimZones settings to see the output of server time each time:

namespace cAlgo.Robots
{
    [Robot(TimeZone = TimeZones.UTC)]
    public class NewRobot : Robot
    {
        private DateTime startTime;
        private DateTime activeTime;
        private DateTime stopTime;

        protected override void OnStart()
        {

            startTime = Server.Time.Date;
            activeTime = startTime.AddHours(9);
            stopTime = startTime.AddHours(45);
            
            Print(startTime);
            Print(activeTime);
            Print(stopTime);
        }
        
        protected override void OnTick()
        {
            if (Server.Time < activeTime)
                return;
                
            Print(Server.Time);
        }
    }
}    

I hope the above helps.
