Discussing the article: "Developing a Replay System — Market simulation (Part 04): adjusting the settings (II)"

Check out the new article: Developing a Replay System — Market simulation (Part 04): adjusting the settings (II).

Let's continue creating the system and controls. Without the ability to control the service, it is difficult to move forward and improve the system.

The video shows the whole system in operation, you can see how everything happens. However, it is important to note that you will need to wait until things stabilize before using the replay system. When moving a position to the desired point, the movement may seem difficult to perform.

This situation will be corrected in the future. But we can take it for now, as we still have a lot to figure out.


In the attachment, I have included two real market tick files so that you can experiment with the movement and positioning system on days with different numbers of traded ticks. So, you can see how the percentage system works. This complicates things for those who want to study a specific moment in the market, but this is precisely our intention, as explained at the beginning of the article.

With this replay system, which we are building here, you will really learn how to analyze the market. There will be no exact place where you will say, "HERE... this is where I should enter." Because it may happen so that the movement that you have observed actually occurs a few bars away. Therefore, you will have to learn how to analyze the market, otherwise you may not like this replay system presented in this series of articles.

Hello Daniel!

Firstly, I would like to thank you very much for your willingness, enthusiasm and competence in teaching what you know.

I've been following your articles and I'd also like to say that the projects proposed in them are very useful for studying and using metatrader 5.

You're bringing together knowledge and showing how to apply it to really useful things, and that's extraordinary. Thank you!

Now, returning to the discussion about the article, you say that you can use Replay with your own EA, and that's great.

I'm developing an EA to trade the B3 mini-index market, and what it does is analyse the flow of tick data.

I'm having a lot of problems running the EA on past days via Metatrader 5 replay, because I need the tick by tick movement and it doesn't run all the ticks of the day's movement, it skips many seconds of data.

I've seen that the Replay service you're running and publishing can help me with this problem, since I download the tick data for the days from the brokers and store it.

Can I run the Replay service and run my EA reading the ticks from the service (downloaded file) and debug my EA? I ask this because I was wondering if, when I stopped debugging my EA, the service would also stop plotting the ticks on the chart. Would you have an example of how I could make the EA call in the Replay project?

Hum.... This is a curious question. I liked your question 😁👍. Since it could also be a question for other people. Thank you for raising it publicly.

And the answer is YES 😁👍. Yes, there is a way for you to use your Expert Advisor and tell the replay / simulator service to stop plotting ticks on the chart. To do this, you need to do something very specific. And since you're asking, I don't think you have any idea how it actually works. So I'd rather not tell you right now. But don't worry, I've already written the articles explaining in detail how to do what you want. They're going to take a while to come out, because before I explained how to do this. I had to explain something else that allows you to understand exactly what you want to do.

Have a little patience and keep following and studying the articles on the replay / simulator. And keep developing your Expert Advisor, and keep downloading and storing ticks. Because in order for your Expert Advisor to tell the service what you want it to do. You only need to add one line of code. That's what you've just read. You just need to add a single line of code and everything will work the way you want it to. But before you do that, you need to understand what this single line of code will do in MetaTrader 5. And explaining it in a comment is not so simple. 😁👍

 
Thank you for your attention and reply. I'm going to keep following and I'm going to be very excited when you publish this. It will be very, very helpful in debugging and improving my EA. Thank you very much! May God continue to bless you!
