Big$ and others:

This is TRADESTATION (my fee about $10/mo...Goodbye Qcharts). I use two monitors with as many charts as needed. Stoch RSI is programmable.

I've been working on an AutoWave replication shown top photo, I will soon to verify to Qcharts. Sorry, I'm learning how to post good photos; GW parameters are protected, though.

(Yes, I know the last photo show a $62 loss; I had just reset my simulated trading account and bought a call.)

Chunk,

Nice picture. Are you by any chance using the candlestick outline indicator by Solidus to get the black outlines on your candles? Otherwise, your workspace looks exactly the same as mine, except I still use black as the default background. I am very much interested in what you are doing trying to replicate the QCharts autowave indicator. Would you mind discussing it in more detail or sending me a PM. I have done a fair bit of background investigation on this indicator but have not yet got around to trying to get it "just like QCharts" on TradeStation. I actually have a copy of code written by someone to create this indicator, but it is in a language called Objective C, so it has not been a whole lot of help.

Dan,

Wave: Simple so far, but I haven't compared it yet with my contact who has Qcharts. Can you? I used the indicator ZigZag 2.5. Format: Change the colors as needed; "True" should be only for ZigZag Price, otherwise enter "false" when you see a "true".

Of course, I now start to think: We shouldn't "burn the candle at both ends." GW says, "It's about the time...with family...that's why we do this."

Candles: Here's the EasyLanguage. I can't remember if I got it all from the Tradestation Forum (I recall reading Solidus), or from customer service.

This forum shows an error smiley face, which should be deleted and replaced with closed parenthesis.

inputs: UPcolor(white), DNcolor(red), WICKcolor(black), WICKwidth(1), BODYwidth(3) ;

variables:
color(0),
BodySize(iff(bodywidth=2, 1, iff(bodywidth>4, 4, bodywidth) )),
Outline(iff(bodysize=0, 2, iff(bodysize=1, 3, iff(bodysize=3, 4, 5))) ),
colorU(UPcolor),
colorD(DNcolor),
colorW(WICKcolor) ;

{ ------------------------- Revision 1 Aug 15 07 ------------------------------
- Simplified coloring code for efficiency.
- Removed Once command to permit use with pre-8.2 Tradestation.
- Added efficiency fix so RGB color values as inputs need only calculate once on startup.

Chunk,

Thanks for the code. It looks like it covers several issues with standard TradeStation. Also, I have access to QCharts so I will load ZigZag 2.5 and see how close it comes to QCharts. I will post results.

StochRSI EasyLanguage.

However to avoid disclosure, I replaced GW's parameters with *. Keep the parenthesis, delete the * and add the appropriate number from your manual.

And the 5 smile faces should be an end parenthesis )

Chunk



inputs:
RsiLength(*),
StochLength(*), { # of bars, periodK }
KSmoothing(*), { MA(periodK) }
DSmoothing(*), { MA(percentK) }
OverBought(80),
OverSold(20),
MidLine(50);

variables:
MyRSI(0),
MyStochRSI(0),
oFastK(0),
oFastD(0),
oSlowK(0),
oSlowD(0);

{ Calculate the RSI }
MyRSI = RSI(Close, RsiLength);
MyStochRSI = Stochastic(MyRSI, MyRSI, MyRSI, StochLength, KSmoothing,
DSmoothing, 1, oFastK, oFastD, oSlowK, oSlowD);

{ Plot the lines }
Plot1(oSlowK, "PercentK"winking smiley;
Plot2(oSlowD, "PercentD"winking smiley;
Plot3(OverBought, "OverBought"winking smiley;
Plot4(MidLine, "MidLine"winking smiley;
Plot5(OverSold, "OverSold"winking smiley;
