Automated Trading Championship 2012: Last Days before the Registration End

$

Registration for the Automated Trading Championship has entered its final stage. Less than three days have left before the deadline. More than 3 400 applications have already been submitted. However, it depends only on the applicants themselves if they are able to become actual participants. In recent days, the number of potential competitors for the prize money is increasing but most of them will not be accepted for the competition.

Последние дни регистрации на Automated Trading Championship 2012

Many potential participants of the Automated Trading Championship 2012 started submitting their Expert Advisors only this week and already faced the errors during the automatic tests. We can only advise to search the News section once again for the articles that can help you to find the appropriate answers:

Test and optimize your strategy and make sure that the settings contain exactly the same parameters you have found. Check the limitations for the operation time and account number to let your trading robot not only pass all the automatic tests but also start trading on the Championship itself.

Submit your Expert Advisor if you have not already done that, and good luck!

Class A reference Class B and the other way round

TripleHeinz:

Hello,

I don't know how to make a forward reference between two classes (contained in two different files):

[file A.mqh]

[file B.mqh]

Clearly this won't compile as the declaration "myclassA" is defined as having no type. Even explicitly including file A.mqh has no efect. Putting both classes in one file is ovbiously the same.

How can i make possible this kind of recursion in MQL5?

Thank you guys.

[EDIT]: I believe this one should go in the GENERAL DISCUSSION, sorry, i read this topic after posting: http://www.mql5.com/en/forum/6775

Hi TripleHeinz

Include : http://www.mql5.com/en/docs/basis/preprosessor/include says "The preprocessor replaces the line #include <file_name> with the content of the (include) file ... ".

HFT and can we reduce spreads by trying to place orders at midpoint?

I just test that example found there with my lousy connection. I only test it 3 times using MetaQuotes demo server.

OrderSend() took 1000 ms, 3000 ms, and 8978 ms just to send 1 buy limit,

the OrderSendAsync took 78 ms, 94 ms, 125 ms to send 10 buy limit.

Freak ! 

Talk about speed. 

 

Thanks onewithzachy, that is a very good comparison.  Now all we hope is that the order actually got completed in something like that time too.  At least it is not 'blocking' execution on the client EA ;)

Some useful questions I need answered

Forgive me for the number of questions on my first post. I am a quant trying to move into a home algo trading career. These seem to be the most relevant problems I need to solve:

 

1. Tic data, can meta download outside the env or just within it?

2. Can anyone suggest a good source of (free) tic data?

3. If there is some decent scratch code for a simple 1 instrument algo trader with listeners and trade requests in it to the meta platform I would be grateful to have a link.

Good article. I use state machines and this approach as a design pattern in some of my EAs since a long time ago, and probably many other systems developers and engineers.

Hi Alex_77

There's no command or function in MQL5 that can switch server by command. On journal tab, at first login, MT5 will search which server is perform better and switch to that server automatically -  however that's only on first login.

I think that's good, coz if we are the one who pick which server, one server may be overloaded with connection while the other server is not. 

I did asked that in 2011, and they say that server switch is done automatically, and looks like no plan to create MQL5 command/function either.

However, if you want it that bad, you can use some Windows programming.

 

thanks a lot

Hi Rosh,

  I forgot about that, ok so then is it just me that isn't getting any work ? (my laptop is currently on from 8am to 5pm SAST).

Looking at the stats -

  Would it be possible to show distribution by hour (GMT based) - and if necessary per cloud region ? i.e. a 24 hour X scale with different bar / line graphs per region ?
