    Edit Forex symbols in TS2000i Globsl server

    Paul is correct. The 'point value' is how much you make for each 1.0000 change in the price so you'll want 10,000 in there. Or make it 1 and buy sell 10000 units in your strategies. Steve

    Not posting vs Useless posts

    Every bloody page I see from this site has this missive: we notice you haven't posted on our forums in several weeks, why not take a few moments to ask a question, help provide a solution or just engage in a conversation with another member in any one of our forums? Hmmm, let's think about...

    TS 2000i: help needed: EasyLanguage codes to draw a box around the prices

    The syntax is: Value1 = TL_New(iBarDate, iBarTime, iPrice, eBarDate, eBarTime, ePrice) I don't have tradestation open at the moment to verify it, but I think you just set ibarDate, iBarTime to the same values as eBarDate, eBarTime, and then change the iPrice and ePrice parameters. I find...

    Applying Indicator to another Indicator

    Actually you can do this, at least with some indicators (the ones that have price as a parameter). For example to show the average of RSI, put a moving average on the chart, and edit the price input from 'close' to RSI(close,10) for example. Note that we are actually using the name of a function...

    Tradestation build

    Build 771 is equivalent to service pack 4c. You need to install service pack 5, as explained here: http://www.tradestation2000i.com/search_results_full.asp?DocumentID=629 Steve

    Conflicting Data Feeds

    You might download tcpview from: http://www.sysinternals.com/Utilities/TcpView.html It shows all the tcp/ip ports open on your system (in and out), with the process names. Ports are high-lighted in green when they are just created and red when they are killed. Actually, it doesn't sound like...

    Easy language strategy ?

    A good place to start is: http://trader.online.pl/ELZ/!-ELZ-index.html You could also look at: http://www.traders.com/Documentation/FEEDbk_docs/Archive/092006/TradersTips/TradersTips.html (vary the month and year to look at back issues) The tradestation website referred to above is...

    Activating links

    The 'click to activate' sounds like the result of the update MS had to roll out as a result of losing a patent lawsuit. I would have thought it wouldn't happen with regular links, though. If that is it, the easiest solution is to run firefox instead of IE. There are other fixes, if you google...

    OnDemand Server SDK (TS2000i Edition) Has anyone tried?

    Achi, I've not tried that one, but do have a couple of others. I found that my C++ skills weren't good enough (in that I don't know that language at all) to benefit directly, but I have been able to proceed using the supplied DLL and rewriting the EXE in VB6. I hope to have the basic feed...

    Proper Symbols

    At this point TS2000i has nothing to do with Tradestation. (Well, vice versa, actually.) They only support TS8.1 which is only sold by subscription. So what you enter will depend on your datafeed and middleware. What are you using? Most vendors I've seen use ER2 for the mini russel 2000...

    Proper Symbols

    Depends on your data feed. I have YMM6.3X & ER2M6.3C (Hyperserver with IB) (although YMM6 & ER2M6 should also work). I think that Metaserver puts in a space: 'YM M6' & 'ER2 M6' The price scale, point value, daily limit and min movement don't affect whether you get quotes or not. Worry about...
