Hello, everyone!
I make trading in futures market, using Multi Charts.
Thanks to Mark and SQ’s Team, SQ let strategy developing more efficient.
We know the Triple Screen trading system, I like that idea. To generate that str. in SQ, we need import the indicators to SQ.
1ã€We can easily export price data and indicator value to the excel file from MC.
Column H to L are my indicator 1, indicator 2, ¦
2ã€(MC) For getting two timeframe data(price or indicator’â„¢s value), we need insert the same symbols of different time frame into a new chartwindow.
For example, in the One workspace, subwindow 1 is 3min bar, subwindow 2 is 10min bar.
And then we create an indicator like this:
{paras: shift ,means shift bars ago of indicator’â„¢s value. I found SQ can’â„¢t do backtracking calculation of all type indicator’â„¢s value now . But I like to use backtracking, especially use Adapt MA, some Zero Lag Trend indicators to generate str. }
value1 = XAverage(close,10) of data2;
value2 = XAverage(close,10)[Shift] of data2;
plot1(value1,”MA1″);
plot2(value2,”MA1 N bars ago”):
Then set the data range and load the price. When the data is ready, we could export the data and indicator’s value.
3ã€Create Custom indicators and import indicator’â„¢s value in SQ manully.
You should give a name of indicator. Anyname is ok, but I suggest that the meaningful name is better. And choose return type. Parameter is needed.
4〠Then in the subwindow of Custom indicators data, we could import the value now.
First, Add new indicator associated with the symbol.
Click the indicator’â„¢s row below to choose is , and import data.
5ã€Choose the custom indicators’â„¢s value in Building Blocks and give more weightness.
Now you could make Multi-Time Frame strs, using your custom indicators.
