Re: Progressed Time
I did zip it all up and save it, intending to figure out how to shoehorn it into the new board. So 15 years in and I'm still like, dang, that looks really really hard. So I guess this is all technically still within the realm of possibility...

Re: Indicator and Drawing Object placement Right of Bar[0]
Hi rlite,
Depends on the tool. If it's a script, it won't know to run into the future, so you have to detect it in your code and do it all at an older bar in time. If you have an example to post, I can help figure out what's up...

Re: Indicator Divide by Zero error for Intraday chart
Also double check your reference bars setting in your script. That needs to be how many bars to reserve for history so the script can access past data. If you are running a 20-period average, you'd set it to 20 or larger. Weird stuff can happen if you set it to something smaller than you need. W59 h...

Re: Indicators print additional day after the close
On an intraday chart, the way W59 knows that a bar has closed is when a timestamp shows up in the next bar (basically the next open comes in). Then W59 says "ok, great, let's close out that bar and move on". So you get all your signals, etc, etc. On a daily chart, that's actually a lot trickier, bec...

Re: The most robust system
Nice systems, gang!
I do have a few hives that are still chugging along. Those sort of rebuild themselves as they go, which definitely makes them more robust. I hadn't checked the genetic USM systems on Gold though - that's very cool.

Re: CSV DATA USE IN W59
Hi Galaxy, If you search for "ascii" in the help file (help - W59 help), there's an example there. Basically, go: 1) file - new - chart, then check "offline". 2) Click the "browse" button that pops up over the symbol tab 3) choose "ascii" (middle option, on top) 4) The first time you load a file, yo...

The most robust system
Hi gang, I had some free time, and thought it would be fun to pull up an ES chart and apply some of the mechanical systems I've built over the years. I never expect systems to last forever, and there's even a whole discussion about this in the Mechanical Trading book, but even though I know that int...

Re: Mechanical Systems for Intraday
I've been able to come up with all sorts of things on daily bars, but anytime I get the itch to build an intraday system, I tend to get whacked. It's really an issue of the churn. Back in my early 20's, when the big SP was still the thing to trade, I did manage to trade a semi-mechanical system with...
