I already addressed that problem.

Not with an xml file and not with a database. You claime the former and ignored the latter.

Strictly from the database side of the equation I'd vouch for the use of xml stored in the database as xml almost solely on the ease of using one table to stack all the individual "xml" up. It's sort of a side-effect that turns out to be exceedingly useful.
Isn't this the reason there are TABLE in SQL? And not FILE?

Depends what database-system you'll be choosing. For local data, I prefer SQLite (over SqlCE) as it's available on both Windows and Linux. One can XCopy such a file-database if no-one is using it at that particular moment.
SqlExpress or MySQL would be recommended if your user wanted to share his/her data.
A huge advantage of using a database over a custom structure is the fact that a database has been built for the explicit reason of storing data, and has been optimized over years to do so. It'd be faster, more secure, and it'd cut the dependency to the custom structure (iow, it'd be "standardizing" on Sql).

For the moment: Thanks for all of these replies. This dicussion is exactly what I'm looking for

Sql Server CE may be a good in-between solution. Or even Excel  which can be accessed like a database via ADO.net / OleDb / Jet/ACE
But I second the concern about each user having his own copy rather than a centralized database. It will bite you.

Hi
I have a loop where I try to pull stockdata, i'm getting moving averages for each day in the loop.
The basic idea is to enter a trade if MA20 is crossing MA50, and MA10 is above MA50.
I've written this test in VBA in Excel, then it was easy to define yesterdays value, it todays value was set by i, yesterday was i - 1.
But in C# I don't know how to solve it, I've just started to write in this language....
if (0 <= mov10value - mov50value && 0 <= mov20value - mov50value)
{
BrokerMarket(IQ_ActionType.BUY, symbolIndex, 100, IQ_TIF.DAY, "Buy");
}
if (0 <= mov50value - mov20value && mov50value - mov20value <= 0.3 && PositionExists(IQ_TradeStatus.OPEN, symbolIndex))
{
int[] positionIndexes = PositionIndexList(IQ_TradeStatus.OPEN, symbolIndex);
double quantity = PositionQuantity(positionIndexes[0]);
BrokerMarket(IQ_ActionType.SELL, symbolIndex, quantity, IQ_TIF.DAY, "Sell");
}
Any help would be appreciated.
Kind regards

Hi Espen, first of something a bit OT:
if (0 <= mov10value - mov50value && 0 <= mov20value - mov50value)
I'd personally put the constant after the condition, some people do it (especially hardcore ex c++ devs), but the compiler will warn if you perform a potentially accidental assignment-->
if (mov10value - mov50value > 0 && mov20value - mov50value > 0)
This can be further simplified to:
if (mov10value > mov50value && mov20value > mov50value)
Which makes the conditional much easier to read, you'll need to check I've done what you needed. I'd stick an else before the second if as they seem to be mutually exclusive, if not ignore.
I'd rename the variables, to MovingAverage10, 50 etc. it'll make the code clearer to C# bodies, you'll get something like this:
if (MovingAverage10 > MovingAverage50 && MovingAverage20 > MovingAverage50)
{
BrokerMarket(IQ_ActionType.BUY, symbolIndex, 100, IQ_TIF.DAY, "Buy");
}
if ( MovingAverage50 > MovingAverage20 && MovingAverage50 - MovingAverage20 <= 0.3 && PositionExists(IQ_TradeStatus.OPEN, symbolIndex))
{
int[] positionIndexes = PositionIndexList(IQ_TradeStatus.OPEN, symbolIndex);
double quantity = PositionQuantity(positionIndexes[0]);
BrokerMarket(IQ_ActionType.SELL, symbolIndex, quantity, IQ_TIF.DAY, "Sell");
}
As for calculating the avergages, the -1 index should work, as long as you aren't on index 0 obviously.
Personally I'd avoid arrays unless I want to specify that I know the length of this list isn't going to change. I'd suggest a generic List<T> instead. Assuming you have are using .net 3.5 & we have the previous 100 days data in a List<double> called quantities, ending at today:
public static double GetMovingAverage(List<double> quantities, int daysToTake)
{
if (quantities.Count < daysToTake)
{
}
var qualifyingQuantities = quantities.Skip(quantities.Count - daysToTake).Take(daysToTake);
return quantities.Average();
}
Don't feel like I've answered you  hope this helps.

Thank you very much Keith, it cleared out quite some things for me, and I see that my logic sense has been totally lost some time.
I still have some questions on how to solve the case regarding the "yesterdays moving average".
Maybe this explains it better: I'm trying to detect when MA20 is crossing above MA50 (given that MA10 already is above). I need to know that MA20 was below MA50 yesterday to be sure that it has crossed as I'm not interested in the days when it stays above.
The MovingAverages are some sort preset scripts in a software that I use (IQBroker)
public void OnInitialize(int indicatorKey)
{
_MovingAverage10Keys = new int[SymbolCount()];
_MovingAverage20Keys = new int[SymbolCount()];
_MovingAverage50Keys = new int[SymbolCount()];
_indicatorKeys = new int[SymbolCount()];
for (int i = 0; i < SymbolCount(); i ++)
{
_indicatorKeys[i] = IndicatorCopy(indicatorKey, i);
_MovingAverage10Keys[i] = IndicatorSMA(_indicatorKeys[i], 10);
_MovingAverage20Keys[i] = IndicatorSMA(_indicatorKeys[i], 20);
_MovingAverage50Keys[i] = IndicatorSMA(_indicatorKeys[i], 50);
ChartIndicator(i, 0, IQ_YAxis.MERGE_RIGHT, _indicatorKeys[i], IQ_LineType.LINE, 1, IQ_Color.GREEN);
ChartIndicator(i, 0, IQ_YAxis.MERGE_RIGHT, _MovingAverage10Keys[i], IQ_LineType.LINE, 1, IQ_Color.RED);
ChartIndicator(i, 0, IQ_YAxis.MERGE_RIGHT, _MovingAverage20Keys[i], IQ_LineType.LINE, 1, IQ_Color.ORANGE);
ChartIndicator(i, 0, IQ_YAxis.MERGE_RIGHT, _MovingAverage50Keys[i], IQ_LineType.LINE, 1, IQ_Color.BLUE);
}
}
#endregion</pre>
Here's the If-part of the code:
{
double MovingAverage10 = IndicatorValue(_MovingAverage10Keys[symbolIndex]);
double MovingAverage20 = IndicatorValue(_MovingAverage20Keys[symbolIndex]);
double MovingAverage50 = IndicatorValue(_MovingAverage50Keys[symbolIndex]);
if (MovingAverage10 > MovingAverage50 && MovingAverage20 > MovingAverage50)
{
BrokerMarket(IQ_ActionType.BUY, symbolIndex, 10, IQ_TIF.DAY, "Buy");
}
if (MovingAverage20 < MovingAverage50 && MovingAverage50 - MovingAverage20 <= 0.8 && PositionExists(IQ_TradeStatus.OPEN, symbolIndex))
{
int[] positionIndexes = PositionIndexList(IQ_TradeStatus.OPEN, symbolIndex);
double quantity = PositionQuantity(positionIndexes[0]);
BrokerMarket(IQ_ActionType.SELL, symbolIndex, quantity, IQ_TIF.DAY, "Sell");
}
}
#endregion</pre>
I start to realize that the transition from VBA to C# is pretty tough

Assuming you've calc'd the averages in psuedo code I'd do something like:
double MovingAverage10 = IndicatorValue(_MovingAverage10Keys[symbolIndex]);
double MovingAverage20 = IndicatorValue(_MovingAverage20Keys[symbolIndex]);
double MovingAverage50 = IndicatorValue(_MovingAverage50Keys[symbolIndex]);
double YesterdayMovingAverage10 = IndicatorValue(_MovingAverage10Keys[symbolIndex-1]);
double YesterdayMovingAverage20 = IndicatorValue(_MovingAverage20Keys[symbolIndex-1]);
double YesterdayMovingAverage50 = IndicatorValue(_MovingAverage50Keys[symbolIndex-1]);
public bool NeedToSell()
{
if(MovingAverage10 < MovingAverage50 || MovingAverage10 < MovingAverage20)
return false;
if (MovingAverage20 <= MovingAverage50)
return false;
return YesterdayMovingAverage20 < YesterdayMovingAverage50
}

Darn tootin' I went the other way when I worked at the Uni, took me a while (well, to VB6) to wrap my head around it. The code you have looks quite procedural, my guess is it will simplify if you get the OO goodness right, but without knowing the problem domain it is hard to help.

Good morning Keith
I see that the sum of our problems related to the transition to/from VB6 and C# could have been eliminated if we had playd the cards correct.
I got it to work now, than you very much for taking time to help me out.
I'm now ready to paint myself into a new corner
Have a nice day
Kind regards

I use ExRichTextBox picw access after the value of the negative? Why is that?
The Rtf result is:
{\rtf1\ansi\ansicpg936\deff0\deflang1033\deflangfe2052{\fonttbl{\f0\fnil\fcharset0 Tahoma;}}
\viewkind4\uc1\pard\lang2052\f0\fs21{\pict\wmetafile8\picw-27521\pich502\picwgoal21552\pichgoal285

You can see the picw-27521 .Why?

Can you post the code behind it?
It seems like you get the raw RTF encoding instead of the RTF text.

Hi,
i want to make setup my project in c# but i have this error
Error 27 File 'log4net.dll' targeting 'AMD64' is not compatible with the project's target platform 'x86' C:\Users\user\Documents\Visual Studio 2010\Projects\WindowsFormsApplication3\Insurance Management Setup\Insurance Management Setup\Insurance Management Setup.vdproj Insurance Management Setup
Also i want to be run the setup in 32 bit and 64 bit platform
What is the solution ??

Why this is happening is described in the error message: you are trying to deploy the AMD (AMD64) targeted dll against a Generic x86 (x86) application.
zebra88 wrote: What is the solution ??
Personally, I'd start by downloading the Log4Net Source and building alongside the app so it always builds against the same version as the app. You could also get the generic version of the dll and deploy that, but as you require 32-bit deployment as well it might get messy.
As for 32/64 bit deployment, the simplest thing to do is to set up both 32 and 64 bit versions of your build configuration and swapping to produce 32 and 64-bit versions of your MSIs. You could also consider two installer projects for each, but it depends on your circumstances. If you want a single installer where the user chooses which version as part of the installation process, then that is beyond my ken I'm afraid.

Hi all ,
I'm creating MVC4 controller that accepts Uri as parameter from the caller (wrapped in the AppMessage class with other info ) , this uri represents callBack link (WCF service / web page/ ) so this link is used to send the success of execution block of the controller body . I want the client to be notified so he can perform some acts when this confirmation is recieved by the requested uri .
public class AppMessage
{
public Uri CallbackUri { get; set; }
public string data1 {get;set;} ....
}
and the controller looks like
public ActionResult Send(AppMessage message)
{
NotifyByURi(message.Uri)
}
I would love to hear what is the best way to implement such thing (Web service deuplix communication / SignalR .... what else ?)

Has anyone done any programming around a Symbol Scanner, specifically an LS4208? What I am looking to do is remotely program the scanner so our system techs won't have to use the paper guide to program them. I have the SDK, and have a ruff idea about how to do it. However, I can't seem to find the attribute to set the scanner to USB IBM Hand-held. Does anyone happen to know which attribute this is?
Thanks,
