Alpha Vantage with Forex scanner and Ma Fibo Env indicator issue
Alpha Vantage with Forex scanner and Ma Fibo Env indicator issueAlpha Vantage provides less than 1000 bars on 1h TF FX that's why Ma Fibo Env indicator is not drawn correctly and the scanner cannot work with currencies
This issue will be solved in build 184 Solution: Yahoo Finance provides Forex too For example type "EURUSD=X" as symbol and get chart. There is more than 1000 bars on 1h TF and the Ma Fibo Env indicator works In fact function "ima" used in the indicator (programmed in includes\QChartist.cpp) needs at least 1000 bars We will be able to use Yahoo Finance Forex for the scanner in the next build 184 I will work on that ; thank you for your patience Good week end |

Re: QChartist build 183 is out!
For Linux Wine users:
In order to know if you have to use pkill or QCKill method in QTGuard, Choose "Use pkill (method 1) first" Click on "start timer" and click on "start expert" wait a few seconds, QChartist will start automatically and begin to scan tickers In QChartist click on the "Stop" button in the top right corner Wait 1 or 2 minutes, QTGuard will try to kill QChartist and restart it (with pkill method 1) If QTGuard does not manage to kill QChartist before restarting In QTGuard, click on "stop timer" and "stop expert" Close QChartist manually Try the "Use QCKill (method 2) in QTGuard GUI Click on "start timer" and click on "start expert" wait a few seconds, QChartist will start automatically and begin to scan tickers In QChartist click on the "Stop" button in the top right corner Wait 1 or 2 minutes, QTGuard will try to kill QChartist and restart it (with QCKill method 2) Under Windows, pkill method 1 or QCKill method 2 is the same and it doesn't matter Hope that helps Enjoy |

Re: QTGuard QCkill problem under Linux with Wine
If you have problems with QTGuard.bas (pkill) provided in build 182 please download and copy QTGuard.bas from build 179 provided below
You need this version of QTGuard for wine-1.6.2 with Ubuntu 16.04 (which uses QCKill anyway instead of pkill) You can also find the build 179 archive in your updates directory |

Re: QTGuard QCkill problem under Linux with Wine
After deeper tests, it appears that using pkill instead of QCKill doesn't solve the problem when curl freezes.
Thus, i won't put the above modified QTGuard.bas in build 181 because this doesn't solve the problem at all. I think the solution is here : put a timeout for curl : Timeout parameters
curl has two options: --connect-timeout and --max-time. ?
Quoting from the manpage:
?
--connect-timeout <seconds>
? ? Maximum ?time ?in ?seconds ?that you allow the connection to the
? ? server to take. ?This only limits ?the ?connection ?phase, ?once
? ? curl has connected this option is of no more use. ?Since 7.32.0,
? ? this option accepts decimal values, but the actual timeout ?will
? ? decrease in accuracy as the specified timeout increases in deci©\
? ? mal precision. See also the -m, --max-time option.
?
? ? If this option is used several times, the last one will be used.
and:
?
-m, --max-time <seconds>
? ? Maximum ?time ?in ?seconds that you allow the whole operation to
? ? take. ?This is useful for preventing your batch jobs from ?hang©\
? ? ing ?for ?hours due to slow networks or links going down. ?Since
? ? 7.32.0, this option accepts decimal values, but the actual time©\
? ? out will decrease in accuracy as the specified timeout increases
? ? in decimal precision. ?See also the --connect-timeout option.
?
? ? If this option is used several times, the last one will be used.
If i encounter connection problems, i will try to put a timeout with curl at line 51627 in QChartist.bas For the moment all is ok! Have a nice day and see you later |

QTGuard QCkill problem under Linux with Wine
QTGuard QCkill problem under Linux with Wine
Sometimes QTGuard does not manage to kill QChartist properly when it freezes under Linux The solution is to use the pkill command. Here are the modifications that can be made in QTGuard.bas: ' line 21 $include "includes\like.inc"
$Include "includes\ShellRedir.Inc"
?
declare sub ShellRedirCallBack (Text As String)
?
Sub ShellRedirCallBack (Text As String)
'Print Text
End Sub
?
DefStr platform = ShellRedir ("c:\qchartist\getos.exe") ' line 655 if like(platform,"*Wine*")=0 then ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
RUN CHR$(34) + homepath + "\QCKill.exe" + CHR$(34)
RUN CHR$(34) + homepath + "\sendmailKill.exe" + CHR$(34)
end if
?
if like(platform,"*Wine*")=1 then
defint pid
pid=shell ("/bin/sh -c "+chr$(34)+"pkill QChartist"+chr$(34),0)
'pid=shell ("/bin/sh -c "+chr$(34)+"pkill sendmail"+chr$(34),0) ' commented because quite risky
end if
You can download the modified QTGuard.bas with the attached file. Maybe i will include it in build 181 but i need to test more first Enjoy and happy trading |
