 Posted: Fri Feb 24, 2012 7:36 am Post subject: [SOLVED] Using Alligator and Fractals Indicator Problem |
 |
|
Dear all,
I'm new in programming Forex Tester 2 Strategies, try to make Bill Williams Chaos Theory Strategies, I already follow the Forex Tester 2 Help file or searching on web (this forum), but still got some problem :
1. How can I get current bar Indicator Value from each Alligator buffer index (jaws,teeth,lips)? here my script sample :
| Code: |
iAlligator := CreateIndicator('GBPUSD', 30, 'Alligator',format('%s;%s;%d;%d;%d;%d;%d;%d', [StrMAType(ma_SSMA), StrPriceType(pt_HL2),13, 8, 8, 8, 5, 3]));
bJaws := GetIndicatorValue(iAlligator, 0, 0); // JAWS
bTeeth := GetIndicatorValue(iAlligator, 0, 1); // TEETH
bLips := GetIndicatorValue(iAlligator, 0, 2); // LIPS
|
since I always got the shift value, not current bar values for Jaws, Teeth, lips.
2. How can I use the Fractals? since I always got the "error in Strategy...". while start the test. here my script sample :
| Code: |
iFractal := CreateIndicator('GBPUSD', 30, 'Fractals', '');
bFracUp := GetIndicatorValue(iFractal, 0, 0); // FRACTALS UP
bFracDown := GetIndicatorValue(iFractal, 0, 1); // FRACTALS DOWN
|
Anyone can help me, urgently need a help. Thank you before.

Hello,
did you get indicator handle after CreateIndicator function call?
what values of iAlligator and iFractal variables did you get?
maybe there was an error in the parameters which you pass to the indicator.

Here the print screen of Integer Handle value I got after starting the Test.
Anything wrong?
Thank you for the Support.

okey..I've attached my source code, since there is an error, so the code still without logic or algorithm,I'm only testing if 'CreateIndicator' and 'GetIndicatorValue' function are return right value. It's Delphi Code.
very appreciate your support and any solution.Thank you.

Hello,
Probably the error happens because you use CreateIndicator function in the GetSingleTick procedure.
Please try to remove CreateIndicator call from there. Does it help?

I've try to put only on ResetStrategy procedure and I got popup window error every start the test. any others idea? I think there are something wrong with the Fractal parameter while initialize with Create Indicator base on strategies help file, since there are no source code of fractal indicator, please help me to solve.

| Any chance you would publish the correct code here so we know what the fix was. Just the lines initializing Fractal and getting the values would be helpful.

The posibilities is maybe there is some version of FT 2 Indicator in installer build in. I backup my old indicator *.dll file, then I download a newest installer from FT website, install it, then I found there are different modify date between this indicator same file. dont know it could be posible happened.
For the current, I'm using the newest alligator & fractal indicator from newest FT Installer into my Strategies, not from my own created before, and it worked fine until now.
Little bit suggestion, could you give some version information into indicator interface or something if any different version, just to make sure we use the right version as well
Thank you
