Hello Mikro 

Adding a Trade to a historical Trade List is not hard 

        private List<HistoricalTrade> LongTrades = new List<HistoricalTrade>();
        private History hist;

         protected override void Initialize()
        {
            // Initialize and create nested indicators


            hist = History;
            for (int i = 0; i < hist.Count; i++)
            {
                LongTrades.Add(hist[i]);
                Print(hist[i].PositionId);
            }


        }

But , in your case it is 

AFAIK the Built-in Historical trade is for the Past only 

so if you are trying to make the List with new Trades that didn't even Finish .. i.e after you execute the trade , it should be added to the List 

then I think you should make you're own Type or Try to use Positions .

for instance ,  A historical trade includes the data about the Finished Date & closing Price .. which is obviously not suitable in your case 

in your example , you should make your own type which includes State of the Trade (Still Open/Closed) and only if it is closed you can add it to the Historical Trade List.

I think you should be really looking into Positions , it is already a Collection

Basically  Generic Lists

Reference 

Using System.Collections.Generics ;

Initiation 

Private List<HistroicalTrade> LongTrades = new List<HistoricaTrade>() ;

Addition

LongTrades.ADD(a long Trade) ;

Looping

for(int i = 0 ; i< LongTrades.count ; i++)
{



}

its something like that mainly , you can put any type or Custom Type in a generic list

I think this is the best possible hack 

Thanks again mate

Very clever from you , thank you 

it does catch some values outside the range (30-70 or whatever the range) , but it's much more convenient than what i did  .

thanks mate

LTSigOpen or LTSigClose is a Series of data (in this case Moving Average).. not a single value 

you should be comparing the X Value in the moving average with the Y Value in price  or Y Value in another moving average

so you should be going like that : 

LTSigOpen.Close.Last(0) < LTSigClose.Close.Last(0) //pseudo code 

this way you're comparing 2 values and it will work

Best solution is to choose candle fill colors with some transparency 

and the dots with solid colors 

AFAIK there is no Z-Depth in cAlgo which is the real solution to this

I'm responding blindly now because you didn't post any code 

Chartobjects.DrawText("theDot"+index.toString() , the Text , the position , the color)

if (dms.ADX.IsRising())
            {
                ChartObjects.DrawText("IsRising", xySpace(0, 5) + "Is the ADX Rising? " + dms.ADX.IsRising(), StaticPosition.TopLeft, Colors.Black);
                Print("it is Rising !");
            }
            else
            {
                ChartObjects.RemoveObject("IsRising");
            }

            if (dms.ADX.IsFalling())
            {
                ChartObjects.DrawText("IsFalling", xySpace(0, 6) + "Is the ADX Falling? " + dms.ADX.IsFalling(), StaticPosition.TopLeft, Colors.Black);
                Print("it is Falling !");
            }
            else
            {
                ChartObjects.RemoveObject("IsFalling");
            }

I can't look into this in depth because the market is closed , but i did have problems before from this "Drawn text " multiple times with the same name 

or not removing the drawn object  on the chart 

if this is not the solution , I suggest you keep the Print() command .. it's actually proving IsFalling & IsRising are working

well , eh .. I got some progress  .. always a delay around 3 sec !!

maybe its how long the text takes to display ? 

protected override void Initialize()
        {

            Timer.Start(1);


        }

        protected override void OnTimer()
        {
            ChartObjects.DrawText("time", Time.ToString("HH:mm:ss"), StaticPosition.TopLeft);
            if (DateTime.Now.Minute == 37 && DateTime.Now.Second == 0)
            {
                Notifications.PlaySound("C:\\windows\\media\\tada.wav");
                ChartObjects.DrawText("MESSAGETEXT_1", "Alarm triggered at: " + DateTime.Now.ToLongTimeString(), StaticPosition.Center, Colors.Yellow);
            }
        }

This lag between the exact time specified and when it shows is the problem ? 

BTW , I couldn't get the sound to play .. it must be something on my PC

it's very hard to know the problem or the fix without code , you could try to split part of the code showing the issue and post it here 

however , because this is C# and you say it works some times and some times it lags .. it could be GC related 

but again it's hard to tell without sample code

Thank you again Paul 

I have no problem with the design , I wrote many Runtime designs before 

BTW , seems if you don't do the threading part .. you'll always get that exception

but that's exactly the point i needed to reach Paul

I really appreciate your help
