eSignal 7.1 Beta is now available for testers to take a look at. If you'd like to assist us test the new features, please go to esignal.com to register.
New Features that are available in the first beta build:
BackTesting - eSignal 7.1 offers its own backtesting language allowing you the ability to develop and test studies against historical data to see how they perform. BackTesting results can be presented in a series of Strategy Performance Reports that help take the guess work out of trading. Using the Strategy Performance Report, you’ll have the unique ability to see the pros and cons of your strategy, change the way you buy and sell, improve trading robustness and gain faith in your trading performance.
Tick Charts - Already available in the standard charts, we’re bringing Tick Charts into the new Advanced Charting. In this first beta, you will only be able to view 1-day of ticks, but it’ll give you a good idea of what we’re doing. You can choose to show dots for each trade, bid, and/or ask as well as choose to connect them with a line. The chart only moves as each new update comes in giving you a fixed amount of space for each tick.
Tick Bars - Not only can you look at ticks in the Advanced Charting, but you can also select a set number of ticks to make up a bar or candle. To use this feature you simply need to make the interval something like 7T, 50T, 123T, or any number of ticks you’d like.
Seconds Bars - Now, you’re no longer limited to intervals in whole minutes, and can set an interval in seconds. To use this feature you simply need to make the interval something like 13S, 45S, 90S, or any number of seconds you’d like.
Price Filtering - This filter on the Advanced Charts allows you to set a % range or % average range of a bar compared to the bars before and after. If a price comes in that is outside the filtered range, it will be displayed in a different color of your choice and won’t be used to calculate any studies or to set the scaling of the chart.
Data Export - You’ll be able to export all the data from an Advanced Chart in tabular format including any studies applied at the time. The export can be in text format, separated by commas or in an .html format. It can also be copied to your clipboard so you can paste it into any other program that can take this format.
