Discussion of article "The algorithm of ticks’ generation within the strategy tester of the MetaTrader 5 terminal" - page 14

 
avatara:

tick - price change.

A bar on any TF in the "classical" representation is OHCL.

If V=0, the bar will be OHCL.

But not on MT. There are other laws of logic here...

:(

My opinion has not changed, Prival is right, but he is not heard.

A different logic decides.

Business logic.

;)

For MT5 the presence of "holes" is a fait accompli, here it will be easier to agree with DC (broker) about periodic history change.

Of course, if there will be corresponding API on the server and the administration will go for it.

 
Interesting:

For MT5 the presence of "holes" is already a fait accompli, here it will be easier to agree with DC (broker) about periodic history changes.

Of course, if the server will have the appropriate API and the administration will go for it.

Smiled.

As a form of perception of reality and a universal way to "solve" the problem...

;)

Shocked myself... :)
 
avatara:

A masterpiece!

A philosophical model, like: No change in the subject - no subject either. :-D

The bar opening is at the price of the last tick on the previous bars. Right? :)

So it is necessary to display bars correctly within trading sessions.

A bar is an "archaic" representation of the price state in a time segment.

And if the price has not changed, a characteristic drawing on the chart will tell us about it....

;)

Not so. The bar is opened at the price of the first tick on the selected timeframe. Open[0] is not Close[1]. This is not a philosophical model, but a model of information transfer. If V=0, there is no bar. There is no state change - there is no reason to transfer information. These are normal principles of its transfer. If you need "characteristic drawings", draw them yourself - on a timer. After all, it is you who want them, and I am satisfied with the accepted model. The content of information, not the form of its presentation, is important.

Firstly, it is not OHCL, but OHLC

Secondly, if V=0, there is no Open, because Open is equal to the price of the first tick. If there is no tick, there is no Open, if there is no Open, there is no bar.


To analyse, if you want to, you can build your own DEM, all the necessary information for such constructions is available. Besides, such constructions can be made in both directions.

Besides, many, if not the majority, do not need "empty" bars (bars with no price change). I do not need them.

 
joo:

...

Also, many if not most people don't need "empty" bars (bars that haven't had a price change). I don't.

Please show me by example how you build (synchronise) a multicurrency indicator. If in one and the same time interval for each instrument can be different number of bars. Thank you in advance.

H.Y. The majority is not an argument. There is a statistic that the majority of 95% take out of the market, and only a few remain.

 

Prival:

H.Y. The majority is not an argument. There is a statistic that the majority 95% are taken out of the market, there are only a few left.

This is already an argument :)

But it seems that this argument is not for MT5, we are waiting for the 6th version....

Do you think that you are those very few? I'm happy for you.

I haven't needed to build and synchronise multicurrency indicators so far. But I understand perfectly well how to do it, and I will do it if I need to. You have already been advised on what to do in such cases, if my memory serves me correctly, Urain advised you.

don't pass it on. ;)

But we have to display it.

Let's go back to the definition of a bar. ;)

What's important to you is clear to me.

As well as others who actually trade...

;)

 
Interesting:

Now that's an argument :)

But it seems that this argument is not for MT5, let's wait for version 6...

You once told me about the glass in MT5. Could you tell me where you used it?

I can't enjoy it.

;)
