Hello,
Can anyone tell me...
Are strategies only active when my computer is logged on to the trading site?
The reason I ask is that I have back tested the DMACD strategy and it makes 5 or 6 trades a day, but when I activated it on my demo account it did nothing for the whole day.
Sorry if I'm being a bit silly.

Thank you for your post. Welcome to the forum community!

Yes. When you are logged out, your strategies are inactive.

The reason I ask is that I have back tested the DMACD strategy and it makes 5 or 6 trades a day, but when I activated it on my demo account it did nothing for the whole day.


Please make sure that you have the Allow Trading parameter set to "Yes":

Thanks for your reply sunshine.
I did have the allow to trade set to yes, but i wasn't logged on :roll:

Also, is there a way of setting strategies to only open one position at a time, ie. not to open another until the current one has closed?
I'm experimenting with DMACD at present, but I would like to know this for strategies generally, as well as this one.
If not, can this be progammed in?

This depends on the strategy to strategy.
For some time I use this functionality in my new strategies.
If you use some of the old strategys, written by other authors, ther is possible that they do not have it.
But they can be added on a case by case basis.

Hi Vijayan,

Please read the article that describes the simple strategy creation: Moving Average Cross.
And I think this section will also be useful for you: Indicore Step-By-Step Instructions.

Best regards,
Ekaterina

Because the level is insufficient, cannot send the posts, so here to post questions, sorry...

I would like to ask a question: on the use of "period":

For example:
Source=ExtSubscribe(1,nil,instance.parameters.TF,true,"bar");
Indicator[1]=core.indicators:create("MVA",Source.close,5);
Short["A1"]=Indicator[1]:getStream(0);

I would like to ask:
"Short[" A1 "][period]"、"Short[" A1 "](period)"、"Short[" A1 "].period"、"Short[" A1 "](period-1)"
represent what meaning? If the application in Ma wear should use? To output numerical comparison and should use?

thank you!

Hi,
I'm trying to backtest the breakout strategy with GMMACD filter but for some reason its not letting me set a parameter to allow trading - the parameter is missing. (I have backtested the simple breakout strategy and that works fine -the trading parameter is there and can be set to yes). I have included the GMMA and GMMACD indicators on the chart but it won't show any trades when backtesting. Am I doing something wrong?
