Request for an equity recorder

Post by Over60 »

Does someone use an equity account record indicator?

Years ago, “7Bit” at FF did introduce such a tool using an offline chart, but as far as I know, it works only in conjunction with an EA, like his snowball EA.

FYI:

I´d like to ask, if there are a similar tool to watch the progress graphically like a line chart and used as an indicator. Comparable to the grahic-chart provided in the detailed report.

Why I ask for such a tool?

Trading basket, multiple orders or whatever, I´d like to trace and locate (by e.g. daily time) the move and account performance (be it in profit or DD) at a certain time, e.g during a daily or weekly session.
It would be comfortable to watch the progress, resp. move of the complete account as also the progress of e.g. a single pair.

I´m not a coder, therefore I don´t know, how and if such indicator will work proper in generell?
As long as orders are running, the data are available in the terminal.
Anyway, there are brokers, which remove the history account by weekly or monthly reports and the closed order data are not further available.

What about such closed orders, which are only temporary available in the account history?
Are there any chance to store or recover the account history over months, independent from such an indicator?

Up to now, I transfer the data to an excel-worksheet manually, but it is very time consuming.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for your reply.

Does this indi really work with Empty4 Build > 600 (actually B 646).
Will try it again after market open, but as far as I know and can remember, this indi will not work proper with B >600 (Created and published 2008).
It was a russian or rumanian founder, who created this indi in former times.
Due to cyrillic language used and coded, I do not have any chance to adapt or to analyse the error messages and malfunctions.
Anyway it is a nice tool, similar as I requested.
Advanced traders will recognize, why I ask fo such a tool.

There is also a further one, but for the crappy MT5.

I tried the equity-recorder again after open.
Sorry that I did dout before.
It seems to work and after some settings (see attachements) it shows the account progress as expected.

However:

- the alert messages and some comments in the indi are still displayed by cyrillic letters

I´d like to request, there is a coder with russian knowledge to substitute the messages into english.
Maybe there are further improvements.

Attached also the graphical result, to indicate how the indi work.

Thanks again for your support.

Trade well my friends
