Awesome results pinbar - thanks for posting / all your input

A few questions if you have time:

A) Do you consider upcoming news before trading a basket?

B) Whats your TP goal in basket pips - any fixed or are you using "gut feeling" or other TP method?

C) Have you ever had a full agreement of the 2 indicators, where the Excel did not agree?
(What I am thinking, the excel might not be needed if the Excel always agree when the 2 indicators also agrees...)

Keep it up ranking in those green pips!

Thank you for the compliments..Well as far as news is concerned I dont look at the news and I trade the signals as they come whether there is news or not.FYI I am still learning this method , I am not a pro yet so I am experimenting with different stop loss and take profit.With time I will be able to identify which one works well for me..Yes I have had a full agreement of the 2 indicators where Excel agrees most of the time.

Hi PC.
Could you make an EA for the 2 indicators when they agree?

{quote} Hello Bubincka I know you are doing great from the other thread. Come on,keep it up! About your question,COUNT is just an Iteration Counter,numbers are random and not time related
Are you using MqlTick and a change in volume to count ticks? If not can you throw a clue? How do you account for heavy volume times when it may exceed data transfer times? Or is this an acceptable buffer? Sharing a little code would be helpful.

Hi
I don't care about change in Volume,but remember tick by tick collection could slow down your Excel speed,and it is not a matter of CPU Usage % or RAM
Lately ,I've started collecting datas using small time intervals.

OK so you collect price data at smaller time intervals? I am confused. "tick" represents a completed transaction. "volume" is the total lots. The number of ticks in a minute can vary a lot. How can you collect tick counts on intervals? I cannot figure out how to do this without having an indicator try to count them live and separate sales from quotes via volume.

{quote} ... Lately ,I've started collecting datas using small time intervals.
i.e. using GetTickCount function in mql4 or counting the number of ms in Excel.

I don't think the bourne saves ticks, he saves instead strength and gaps every XX ms.

Good morning traders please can someone please help me with the excel gap installation its killing me i have been busy with it but somewhere somehow i am failing to get it ryt pls help {image} {image}
Hi kdaawwgy,

I had the same problem and found a solution a few pages back, I think you need to change your settings for Excel;

"in case you live in Europe pay attention to decimal separator it should be dot (.) not comma (,):
through excel 2007 <
file - option - advanced : (chkbox) - Use system separator - uncheck - Decimal separator below enter value ".""
