Documentation on IndicatorCounted()

[dbaechtel]

Where is the documentation for IndicatorCounted() and all of the functions used in Alveo.UserCode.CodeBase?

[DF-91]

Something like this? for mql4 only for Alveo https://docs.mql4.com/customind/indicatorcounted

Where is the docs.Alveo.com? https://github.com/marlais/Alveo/wiki maybe this is it

What are you trying to do? https://www.mql5.com/en/forum/149695

[dbaechtel]

Dan,

I have seen the information that you have referenced. THANKS.

I have noticed differences between the Alveo API and MQL4/MDL5. The differences in Alveo are not documented.

I am tying to find details on some of the Alveo API functions and data structures that the Alveo sample code references. For example the OrderClose function includes a Price parameter. I do not understand how that Price parameter is used or should be set.

I am attempting to write EAs and Custom Indicators to assist with my trading.

I have identified some significant Bugs in the Alveo functionality that are blocking my progress.

I need some assistance to find answers to areas that are so far undocumented or not working properly.

Do you have much experience writing EAs and Indicators for Alveo.

THANKS for your help.

OK, Sorry to review info. I did not know.

"For example the OrderClose function includes a Price parameter. " What values have you tried? "Ask" for sell orders or buy orders IDK. It is confusing with Sell Limit & pending orders.

https://docs.mql4.com/trading/orderclose Will it just close @market price? maybe "MODE_BID"

If you would like to share only the part of your code that would be helpful.

"assist with trading." are you trading Range or Trends? help me: help you

I assume that you already have an Expert Advisor operational in MT4, yes?

Have you used the MQL4 to C# converter? When will there be a newer version of the mql4 to C# converter? That is what I want to know.

My experience = not much Writing code for Alveo has been frustration!

In all seriousness, I am jumped out of my chair when this actually worked. https://apiaryfund.com/forum/alveocodeindicatortwiceinsiderbar?page=0#new

Dan,

THANKS very much for your assistance. Maybe together we can figure this out. I am willing to share my experiences.

I haven't yet coded up OrderClose, but that is one of my next steps. I am trying t understand what it needs ,so that I can write the code.

I am writing an EA that will assist me with automated trading 24/5.5. I am having some success and some setbacks.

I discovered that the GetHistory, iOpen, iHigh and iLow are returning BAD data much of the time. It is difficult to gauge market action when you cannot get iOpen as well as iClose data. This issue affects many of the existing Alveo Indicators partially, returning inaccurate values. I am attempting to work with the Apiary to get this fixed.

I am an expert at C#, VB.Net, C++ and C coding. I will have no difficulty translating code. I am not working with MQL4/MQL5 much yet, just Alveo.

I think that you would be impressed in what I am doing in my project. I hope that you and I will get a chance to discuss the details of my project in another email(s).

I am talking with Nate@ApiayFund about some of the issues. I hope that w can make some progress.

I will keep you informed.

BTW: What do you thing about a Weighted ATR that gives greater weight to most recent changes and has less Lag? A similar comment can be made about a weighted MACD. What do you think?

What are you working on?

Scope is a big part of it. This is good. We will complement each other, well.

I am 100% confident that anything that you can think of for mql4 I GOT YOU Do you want a Fully functional EA? DONE Just name it with the preface of, I would rather give you one really good file than throw spaghetti.

In addition to documenting errors. I thought about an EA but Alveo is still Alpha? Beta, IDK? I am working on an Inside Bar Indicator. https://apiaryfund.com/forum/alveocodeindicatortwiceinsiderbar?page=0#new

mql4toCsharp Converter... that does NOT even have the correct using directives. YIKES! that would be ALPHA stage.

Also, Break even Stop Loss = still a Work In Progress https://apiaryfund.com/forum/bevensl02?page=0#new

"What do you thing about a Weighted ATR that gives greater weight to most recent changes and has less Lag? "

Average = Lag

My favorite Leading Indicator is Time of Day. please see image. https://www.mataf.net/en/forex/tools/volatility

I have significant the limitation in the way of time and money. I want to take the short distance between A and B where A = the here and now & B = a significant paycheck containing a comma. That is my dream.

"24/5.5" If you are that committed, May God Bless You. I have a "full-time" job. But, I do what I can to steadily increase the account with the future promise of Apiary increasing the account size until I earn the return that I need. I know my nut. I have student loan debt that is more than my life is worth. I need to know that is taken care of before I can trade full-time.

Here is a logic loop for you... I need the time to learn to write the code that would make the money to buy the time to... right, that is life.

Enough about me, To what conditions would you like to be alerted? Ranging or Trending

NICE = you program. Please, do NOT waste time with mql4. I have spent two years polishing that turd.

What is next? I would like to work on designing algorithms in a flowchart. Where do we begin?

[dbaechtel]

Dan,

THANKS for the email.

Your TwiceInsiderBar looks good. What is it used for?

Do you have some C++ code that you have trouble converting to C#? I may be able to help. Have you tried https://www.tangiblesoftwaresolutions.com/free_editions.html

Have you seen this? http://completecurrencytrader.com/tools/currency-strength-indicator.

Individual Currency Strength Indicator is pretty useful. Know which currency to Buy and which to Sell. I may be able to use it in automated trading.

Forex.com has an API and so does Bloomberg. If all else fails, I may be able to use one of them.

I had a talk with Nate @ApiaryFund. Not much help from them. They are "too small" and "too busy" to provide much support, even with fixing Alveo bugs. I will do what I can.

When I have more material on what I am working on, I will share it with you.

Do you know what the Price input parameter in OrderClose() does? Alveo and MQL4 documentation does not tell me.

Do you know much about Fuzzy Logic? I am an expert in Fuzzy Logic. You can write your trading strategy and risk management rules in English like language, not C#. I have the tools and it is working. It may be better than a Flowchart.

Talk more later.

It will more than likely be addressed with the following issue? Some time during this Summer, I assume. https://github.com/marlais/Alveo/issues/5

[dbaechtel]

I'm interested in details when you have them.

THANKS.
