MetaTrader to Dynamic Trader

[Dave78]

Hi

Here is an indicator that generate real time data (every 1 minute) for Dynamic trader. You need to paste it in

your metatrader foder/expert/indicator

Then go to metatrader, attach the indicator to chart (on propoertise you can se;ect each time frame you want).

Go to DT and make a new portfolio. brows the generated files on

your metatrader foder/expert/files

Then you have the real time data (updated every minuet) in DT. It uses little resourses of your computer.

here is the link

I have been using it for some weeks and it has no problem.

Re: MetaTrader to Dynamic Trader

 

The data type is ASCII format (.prn). But first you need to edit the ascii format according to this picture that i made:

I assume that you haven't pressed the red button on the up-left corner of the chart? Is that right?

It has a good help. Also, you can try the Robert Miner's Workshop. You can find it in this forum. While he is teaching his strategy, you can learn DT as well.

Hello Dave,

best regards Phepi

hey Dave thanks!

but could you check the image? it seem to doesn't appear, and im kinda stuck with the ASCII edit

[⭐ turtle]

does anyone knows why there error mentioning can't create textinfo.inf during saving ASCII data file?

[⭐ daveg1713006128]

i have the same problem as turtle

[rocko]

wow it works now!!!

 

turtle and daveg the file is in the directory you choose(ie the directory where the prn files are), so you have to copy and paste it manually in the main dt directory.

 

cheers guys!!!

[⭐ turtle]

that's cool, but anyone know why when i locate the .prn file in the directory, it is empty... what's wrong?

[⭐ turtle]

OK, i found the prn files... rocko, which subfolder should the files put in DT folder?

I'm using windows 7, is DT5 compatible with windows 7?

turtle you should edit the ascii definition while in the prn files folder. when saved it stills shows the cannot save message but a txtinfo.inf file should be created on that folder, thats the one you paste into the main dt folder.

 

also, im using windows 7 so far no problems.

Hi Rocko, this is what showed up when I save. I tried to look for the textinfo. inf file but it's not in the MT4-expert-files folder. What wrong?

[rocko]

well the file im talking about its generally on the root directory of dynamic trader, also im not really sure if you can have various ascii configurations for multiple type of charts, i only have one

 

Anyways heres a link for the file its just a simple txt file so you can check its structure or just paste it in the root and try out

hope it helps

[fxdelta]

yes, that helped

[⭐ turtle]

Rocko, where do you mean by root directory of DT?

[⭐ turtle]

finally, i have set up the chart. So, the data will not be real time, am I correct?

and the trading software doesn't plot the wave by itself?

Hi,

I am afraid that I cannot create this file. It just seems to want to create a file based on the highlighted file as per turtle's pic. I too am using Win7. I have downloaded the file, placed it in the directories, to no avail. When I go back to DT it is blank

Dave

[rocko]

guys the txtinfo.inf goes in the root of dt

 

i.e c/program files/Dt thats where i placed it

[⭐ daveg1713006128]

hi

that's where I have put it as well.....that said how do you create the ascii format file in DT, ie when you save the ascii setup...it doesnt let you save it in DT??? ie you are telling it to save in the MT4 directory, as that it where it is going to look for the files
