  Hi, Good day everyone,

  I am new to Prorealtime. I use AT Pro (City Index) to construct my auto-trading system . I am trying to transfer my trading to Prorealtime. I have the following issues that need help.

  1. Once the system run and open a position, I find not way to exit as I see the price reverses;
  2. Instead of buy and sell, how to give just alert signal when the buy or sell conditions are matched from the program, ie replacing the Buy or sell commands;
  3. How to create indicator on indicator eg, MA on RSI;

  Regards

  Tham

  JS

  1. You can close your positions on the IG -website or in the IG app on your phone or you can stop your trading system (ProOrder AutoTrading => Stop).
  2. You can make all kinds of alert on your graph including e-mail notification (see documentation)
  3. see example
     Smoothing RSI

     myRSI = RSI[14](close) //Smoothing the RSI value on 10 periods SmoothRSI = Average[10](myRSI) RETURN myRSI, SmoothRSI coloured(121,45,180)

     1 2 3 4 5 6

     myRSI = RSI[14](close) //Smoothing the RSI value on 10 periods SmoothRSI = Average[10](myRSI) RETURN myRSI, SmoothRSI coloured(121,45,180)

  Indeed for alerts and signals you have to create an indicator, not a strategy, replacing BUY and SELLSHORT (SELL is used to exit a Long position, EXITSHORT to exit a Short position) with signals to be returned with the keyword RETURN as in JS’example.

  Hi JS and Roberto,

  I have gone through the two manuals, Probuilder and Backtester. I also tried your suggestions.

  The indicator upon indicator, ie MA on RSI works. Turning the trading system to indicator not yet. The trading system had been transferred to PRT and is working.

  I have the following questions that need help:

  1. In Probuilder, I cannot find the VWAP as a function fx.
  2. The DRAWARROW command, ie DRAWARROW (x1, y1), I do not know how to define x1 andy1.  I tried some numbers but not working, I cannot see the arrow.

  Your assistance is appreciated.

  Tham

  Hi JS and Roberto,

  When I load my indicator, sometime it appear as a separate panel, sometime in the main (price) panel. How to fix that?

  Regards

  VWAP: use one of the many custom indicators in the forum.

  X1 is the BarIndex where it has to be plotted, Y1 is the level at which you want it to be plotted, so it must retain a price if you want to plot it on the price chart, or a value matching any indicator you want to apply it to; on RSI it can be 0 to 100, on DAX 0 to about 16400, but if you draw it at 14500 when the current price is 16000 you won’t probably see it  (unless you shrink your chart quite much)!

  Built-in indicators automatically apply to the correct place, unless you deliberately change this. Custom indicators are automatically opened below charts, unless you deliberately change this by applying them on the price chart, provided they share that scale, by clicking the PRICE tag and choosing ADD INDICATOR.
