Prorealtime automated program


Recommended Posts

Hi

I am interested in using Prorealtime on the IG platform in an automated capacity.

The online blogs are rather vague.  Does anyone know if it's possible to program it to buy or sell when price crosses a

certain SMA or EMA of our choice. Also can more than one activity period be specified.

Thanks

Hi ,

 

Yes using ProRealTime you can definitely create an automatic strategy to place trades based on a crossing over/under a

certain indicator conditions. You are also able to make use of multiple conditions in one strategy.

 

If you would like to see an example of what a strategy could look like then click on this link: ProOrder

 

Thanks

Hi Anton

I just trade the forex and although Prorealtime makes it easy to display lists showing current candle signals the illustrated

Proscreener automatic trading only dispays price crossing  sma's etc.

I am looking at  the public Prorealtime which may be a cut-down version of the one used by IG and showing incorporation of

candle signals .

I think that price crossijng sma's and sma's crossing would lead to whipsaws and loss but an auto buy or sell on a bearish

engulfing pattern and close on an sma price cross would be more successful as with cable today on the 5 minute chart

Of course a system which shows divergence would be even more successful or which shows an sma falling or rising

I sure wish I knew how to program, or even which code they use.

    • US Dollar (DXY) Daily Price and Analysis US Q1 GDP may stall the greenback’s advance. A 20-year high nears for the US dollar. The multi-month US dollar rally continues with the greenback printing a fresh high today ahead of the first look at US Q1 GDP at 12.30 GMT. The US dollar basket (DXY) has been boosted by renewed weakness in the Euro and the Japanese Yen, as investors move from lower-yielding to higher-yielding currencies, while safe-haven flows continue to benefit the greenback. The US growth release later in the session is expected to show a sharp slowdown from the robust Q4 figure of 6.9%. The markets are currently pricing in growth of just 1% for the first three months of this year, with the slowdown mainly due to a reduction in inventory accrual over the quarter. This release is unlikely to move the greenback, unless there is a large miss or beat, as the Fed believe that 2022 US growth will be robust enough to let them tighten monetary policy sharply without damaging the economy. The latest US Core PCE data – the Fed’s preferred inflation reading – is released on Friday and this may have more effect on the US dollar than today’s GDP data. For all market moving economic data and events, see the DailyFX Calendar. The ongoing US dollar rally has been aided by weakness across a range of G7 currencies including the Euro, the Japanese Yen, and the British Pound. The Euro continues to battle with lowly growth expectations, exacerbated by energy concerns, the British Pound is mired by weak economic data, while the Japanese Yen is in freefall as the BoJ continues with its ultra-loose monetary policy.   The US dollar continues to press higher and looks set to break above 103.96, the March 2020 high. Above here the US dollar would be back at levels last seen nearly two decades ago. The March resistance will likely hold in the short-term, especially with month-end portfolio rebalancing at the end of the week, but US dollar strength is set to continue in the months ahead.
