You can view the source of any Metatrader .mq4 file by opening it in Notepad. The settings are 37, 39, 41, 44, 47 and 50 Exponential ma's.

If you have MT4 maximised then press the button to the left of the red 'X' at the top right of the screen so that it is not maximised. Then, with the mouse manually increase the size of the MT4 window so that it spans both screens. Likewise make sure your chart is NOT maximised within the MT4...

An interesting idea and an interesting discussion, it's certainly an area which has not been covered by the publishing media. Rols hit the nail on the head. The complexity surrounding a trading system can easily be overlooked by a casual observer. I would say that if you are learning to trade...

Volumes this week have been nothing special.

Chrisw, I would think that linking to the API is the easy bit. The complexity may well lie in the rules that you use to signal a trade and indeed how many stocks/indices/currencies you wish to monitor. I earn my living trading UK stocks Monday through Friday and in the evenings/weekends and...

"WPP up as forecasted" I must have my chart the wrong way up ;-)

www.tradeseeker.co.uk has a variety of end of day and live scanners for UK stocks. The 2000 stock live scanner incorporates alerts/datamining for moving averages.

If you are using Fibonacci Retracement with UK stocks you might like to take a look at www.tradeseeker.co.uk/fib1.html

You might like to have a look at MyTrack (www.mytrack.com). They supply a software development kit which includes (as far as I can remember) support for back-filling historical intra-day data.

Time for some new monitors I guess - only got 4 and I can't read this site on any of them !

Hi Peter, I don't know where you can get this info free - mind you I haven't really looked for it. I download LSE EOD data and also run a market scanner intra-day to screen for possible trade set-ups.

That's a good one - just keep moving your stop down - just think, no more losing trades ;-)

Hi Peter, Like most signals - some do, some don't. I think it is more important to look at whether a stock is continuing to make new highs and also whether it is doing so after a break out from a long period of basing. Look at the chart of BFP which made a new 52 week high today and how LMC...

just21 - Possibly not quite what you are looking for, but if you are interested in scanning upto 200 stocks in real time for breakouts, reversals, intra-day pivot/support/resistance etc then there are some screenshots of just a system at www.aay37.dial.pipex.com/start.html If it looks...
