Can anyone help me with some basic code?

I am looking to backtest a simple MA cross system whilst incorporating an MACD signal as the basis for a strategy.

I need the MACD line to go above / below 3 and then come back across the 0 line (indicating a MA cross) for it to take a position. Condition 1 needs to be met before condition 2 is considered. My code is the following:

// Definition of code parameters

DEFPARAM CumulateOrders = False // Cumulating positions deactivated

// Conditions to enter long positions

indicator1 = MACDline[12,33,60](close)

c1 = (indicator1 >= 3.0)

indicator2 = MACDline[12,33,60](close)

c2 = (indicator2 CROSSES OVER 0.0)

IF c1 AND c2 THEN

BUY 1 SHARES AT MARKET

ENDIF

// Stops and targets

I need C1 to be met before C2 is considered. I can't seem to do this. I put "THEN" where the "AND" is and it doesn't work.

Can anyone assist?

Unchecked as I dont have PRT fired up right now but this is how I would do it:


Its from memory i.e. I havent been able to syntax check the code..hope it points you in the right direction.

Quote
// Definition of code parameters
ONCE HasItCrossed3=0 // zero will ne NO 1 will be YES, start with not crossed
DEFPARAM CumulateOrders = False // Cumulating positions deactivated

// Conditions to enter long positions
myMACD = MACDline[12,33,60](close)

IF (myMACD CROSSES OVER 3.0) THEN
HasItCrossed3=1 // ok we have crossed
ENDIF

IF HasItCrossed3 = 1 THEN
IF (myMACD CROSSES OVER 0) THEN
BUY 1 SHARES AT MARKET
HasItCrossed3 = 0 // dont forget to reset the primary crossing flag
ENDIF
ENDIF

// Stops and targets

Hi guys a couple of questions on prorealtime;

  1. Is it possible to hardcode a ticker into a screener or backtest? For instance if I want a market filter on the Australian All Ordinaries XAO.AX saying if the market indicator is UNDER x week MA then dont trigger buys or screens and if OVER x week MA then do trigger? I have only found a way to code per ticker and not set a global filter.
  2. Is it possible to run the backtests over a grouping of stock? I can only work out how to do it on a stock by stock basis.

Thanks in advance.

Jim

Hello there, i am having a problem using range candles charting, i need to include 2moving averages in the main window, then a combination of two stochastics, fast slow, and a moving average in an 1 indicator window at the bottom.

How do i go about programming for range candles.

Thanks

Hi,

From your description the problem with the main window MA's if you want two moving averages based on the range?

Create a new indicator called 'Range MA' if your comfortable add an integer variable called myPeriod, or just hard code that in the indicator code.

Inserted Code
// hard coded ..
myPeriod = 20

// Simple MA
myRangeMA = AVERAGE[myPeriod](RANGE)

RETURN myRangeMA AS "Range based Moving Average"

Its from memory as I dont have time to test it, if you used a variable then you can now add two of these to your main window with your required periods.

The stochastic is similar.

myRangeStoch = STOCHASTIC[myPeriod](RANGE)

Hi all,

A question if you don't mind. On the probacktest there is an optimization facility. What I want to know is this.

Is it possible to insert a line of code which will automatically optimize a backtest say every hour.

Regards

I think the premium version does, just found out its no extra cost if you open an IG account.

Hello, is there anyone can help me wit this PRT code? I've not any experience.

I just want to add up a value (say 100) to the daily open price (say 1000),
and sell when a bar reaches that price = 1100;
viceversa I want to buy when the price is lower or equal to 900.
Only one order every day (kind of OCO, first order cancel the other) from 9:00am to 17:30pm.
I don't include any stop or filter cos at the moment I'd be more than happy to understand how to do that.
Any help is much appreciated!

My try doesn't work at all:


DEFPARAM CumulateOrders = False
DEFPARAM FlatAfter = 173000
DEFPARAM FlatBefore = 090000

level1 = (DOpen(0) - 100)
level2 = (DOpen(0) + 100)
ClosingTime = 173000


IF NOT LongOnMarket AND Open <= level1 THEN
BUY 1 CONTRACTS AT MARKET
ENDIF

If LongOnMarket AND Time >= ClosingTime THEN
SELL AT MARKET
ENDIF

IF NOT ShortOnMarket AND Open >= level2 THEN
SELLSHORT 1 CONTRACTS AT MARKET
ENDIF

IF ShortOnMarket AND Time = ClosingTime THEN
EXITSHORT AT MARKET
ENDIF
