Programming help guidelines

As this service is free, our programmers receive many requests and are unable to reply to all.
To get an answer, make sure that your programming request respects the programming help guidelines below.

Priority of requests

Requests are prioritized depending on several factors. Some of them are:

Users with real trading enabled on their ProRealTime account are replied to with the highest priority.
Submit your request in English if possible.
Users requesting help for the first time have priority over users who have made several requests in the past.
Making requests that can be coded in a reasonable amount of time will get you a quicker answer.
Please do not submit multiple requests at once.

Avoid incomplete or imprecise requests

We will not be able to reply to imprecise requests.

Make sure to be as precise as possible with your request and specify conditions that can only be coded in one way.

Example – do not ask for a code that will "buy when there is high volatility", but instead:

Name the indicator that you wish to use to measure volatility.
Specify the parameters that should be applied with this indicator.
Specify above which level of the indicator volatility should be considered as "high".
Do not forget to specify the quantity and the type of your order.
A way of describing this condition would be:
"Buy X with a market order when the indicator Y (with parameters A, B, C) goes above the level Z."
