SendFakeTicks

Post by MichaelM »

Hi All,

I use the attached Script if I want my indicators to update in real-time (i.e. every 200ms) instead of every chart tick.

To use just simply drag it onto a chart where you want indicators to update in real-time.
To stop using, Right-click the chart and select Remove Script.

Not sure about this, but I think the coders can extract it's code and use it as part of their EA or indicators.

Cheers,
MichaelM.

May I suggest the following EXE file that sends fake ticks to all running Empty4 terminals. Very useful during the weekends or times with low market moves.

I do not remember who is the author or where I found it.

This is available at www dot fx1 dot net. You uploaded version 0.3, not sure if that works with Windows 7. Here is version 1.1 that works with Windows 7. I really only use this on weekends when I'm coding.

Thanks for the script too, I don't know how I can use it right now but I'll keep it for sure, might come in handy one day!!

This code sends two ticks to a chart. It is compatible with Empty4 6xx and above.

Code: Select all

#property version   "1.00"
#property strict
#property description "Sends two ticks to a chart."

#import "user32.dll"
   int PostMessageW(int hWnd, int Msg, int wParam, int lParam);
   int RegisterWindowMessageW(string lpString);
#import
int start() {
   int hwnd = WindowHandle(Symbol(), Period());
   int msg;
   for (int i=0; i<3; i++) {
         msg= RegisterWindowMessageW("MetaTrader4_Internal_Message");
         PostMessageW(hwnd, msg, 2, 1);
         Sleep(100);
   }
   return(0);
}
