_Tutorial168 is designed for RadarScreen using price series providers (PSPs) to calculate the moving average for monthly, weekly, daily and minute bars. The moving averages are compared with the closing price of of the current PSP bar. If the close is higher than the moving average of that interval a variable (Score) is incremented by […]
Tutorial 167 is a TradeStation EasyLanguage tutorial that demonstrates how to calculate the Average True Range (ATR) using a Price Series Provider (PSP). The technique could be used, for example, to calculate the ATR for a 9 minute interval span, but applied to a 5 minute chart or to apply several ATRs for different bar […]
Tutorial 163 is designed to calculate the exponential moving average (EMA) of a longer time frame minute chart and plot it on a lower time frame chart using a price series provider (PSP). In this tutorial the EMA is also calculated by using data 2 in a simple calculation (the same as the Tradestation XAverage […]
A Markplex subscriber asked for a tutorial about calculating the Commodity Channel Index (CCI) using a TradeStation Price series Provider (PSP). Tutorial 158 calculates the Commodity Channel Index (CCI) within an indicator, using the same calculation as the CCI function, but used inline in the program for the bars on the chart. A price series […]
Plotting a stochastic from a higher time frame on a lower timeframe chart Video based tutorial 138 demonstrates how to plot a stochastic (FastK) and a smoothed stochastic (FastD) for a 15 minute chart, on a 5 minute chart using the Price Series Provider (PSP). The program demonstrated in this tutorial is free to Gold Pass […]
Transfer data from a PSP to an Excel spreadsheet Tutorial 112 demonstrates how to transfer price data from a Price Series Provider applied to a chart to an Excel spreadsheet and to keep the data updated as new bars are formed. The tutorial uses the Workbook and PriceSeriesProvider classes. When the program opens, data from […]
Tick profile histogram created using a price series provider (PSP) Welcome to Markplex tutorial 102 in this collection of tutorials designed to help you learn TradeStation EasyLanguage programming skills. Please join our email list if you have not already done so and we will let you know when we release new tutorials or programs. This tutorial […]
In tutorial 87 I explain how to use a price series provider (PSP) update event. The calculation is very similar to that shown in tutorial 86 (i.e. how to plot an exponential moving average from a 30 minute price series provider on a 5 minute chart) except this time we recognize the end of the PSP […]
In tutorial 88 I explain how to use a price series provider (PriceSeriesProvider or PSP) in an indicator to calculate and plot the Average Directional Index (ADX) of a 30 minute bar on a 5 minute bar chart. In order to keep the concepts as clear as possible, I have omitted some functionality that helps the calculation ‘converge’ […]
In this tutorial I demonstrate how to plot an exponential moving average from a 30 minute price series provider (PriceSeriesProvider) on a 5 minute chart. The biggest challenge with this sort of calculation is that the EasyLanguage indicator is applied to the lower time frame and hence runs on every 5 minute bar, however we […]
