Real-Time Trading System ExamplesHermann,I
have never used EOD indicators with intradays trading system.But, I see
now your problem...I put in the same workspace EOD and intradays
datasgo to file/database settings and set base time interval to 1
minute.and compare the values of simple moving average of an EOD
tickerprice=Foreign("999150","C");Plot(MA(price,20),"",colorRed,styleLine);Plot(MA(price,5),"",colorGreen,styleLine);on
an intraday ticker.the Chart returns very strange values...For
your trailing stop, activated only when a profit is reached, I have a
script that i can send to
