Bill, im not a pc expert, but as you know if you look at task manager, click on processes, you will see all the ones running , some perhaps not needed.As you are again probably aware the more programs etc you load on your pc will keep slowing it down, I have had same problem in the past. My advice to you is either spend some time cleaning your pc OR what i suggest to anyone who trades is to run WHC on one pc, WITH only other basic programs, keep everything else off, bearing in mind what we are all doing and how important it is to have smooth fast data, i would get a top end new pc, not very expensive now!.

Hi Bill,

I have experienced that as well. I think its the cci's causing the problem. Changing these to a different cci as suggested above should help. By removing FX Snipers cci and leaving the normal cci seems to have helped a bit.
Another problem seems to be the quantity of cci's/windows with various settings for different timescales. Even if not displayed on the current timeframe, the system is still running these. Not sure what we can do about that, tho'.
Maybe splitting out the template into one for 5/15 mins and one for 1hr/4hr would do the trick.
Sorry, if that was not very helpful.

Regards
Parduman

I've been using this FX Sniper CCI which was modified by someone early on in the thread - he did a great job because it is not CPU hungry at all. I just went over the early part of the thread and found the contributor: Omelette, Senior Member, deserves the credit. You'll find his post on page 15, #145. Good Luck.

I use 2 ODL MT4 platforms on my pc and the same template with exact same indicators.. One is real slow and the second is one real fast.. The reason may be because of the MT4 options with history data etc- am no pc expert tho ...

I pointed it out so that people who have the same problem can check to make sure that they don't have the virus. And Pimp, I am extremely greatful for all your helpful insights on this thread.
I was only joking, sorry. Us brits have a terrible sense of humour

good morning all,

I trust you are all well and looking forward to the weekend.
My little neice's 1st birthday so that should be fun. Throwing jelly and ice-cream at all the adults.
Most of you in the boiler room seem to be having a great success, so lets see if we can continue that eich vein of form today.

Thanks for the great response to Bills problem too. I will look into getting rid of the old CCI on the template and replace it with the new one.

Crude has managed to find it's way down to the $100 level and has bounced off it a bit. I'm not so sure. I thought there would be people queing up to but this at $100 and although there is quite a bit of divergence on the 4hr CCI, theres not a lit that is going to inspire me into buying this until it breaks 103.50 which is the 4hr 20 some 200 pips away.
Gold is above the 60m 20 and looks set to make a move to the 60m 50 if Crude can keep his head above water and make it back above the pivot.

All $ currencies look like they too are expecting a weaker Dollar to creep back in, apart from miss Yen that is.
GBPJPY traders could be in for a few more pips this morning if Cable and USDJPY carry on in their present direction.

I think there's at least 50 pips to come out of Cable to the north side. Upto 1.7640, then to the 4hr 50.
However, IF crude fails to hold you know what you must do.

CPU usage

I can only think that all those asian-babes vids you have on your hard-drive are causing the slow-down.

Maybe a 5m chart is actually easier to trade in slow-motion ????
Too many people to thank personnally for suggestions on the CPU usage. I'll give a few of them a try and report back.

(FX Pimp, I never saved all the asian-babes vids you sent me. So, that's not the problem)

One doesn't even need to look at the GBPJPY chart to know that if USDJPY and GBPUSD are travelling in the same direction it's going to fly.
150 pips to be had here playing blind !
Personally I don't trade it, so not going to take any credit for a great call but it might help some of you guys realise the potential of knowing about how pairs operate.

If you are unfamiliar with the whole correlation between pairs then study this post and especially the analogy about football teams.

Analysis Paralysis

FX Pimp,

I know this is probably the most basic of questions, but I need to ask, as I feel maybe I'm getting analysis paralysis.

Within the last hour of this post, there have been some beautiful set ups on various pairs. eurusd +90, cable +80, usdchf +30, audusd +50, gold +30.

I watched all the setups, saw them, but didn't take any. Here's why:
Crude was creeping up to the 1hr20, then the daily pivot and I'm thinking, well if it bounces, gold will drop messing up all the other possibilities.

Other times I'm down to watching the last 5m candle direction on crude & gold. But, looking back over the crude and gold now, they have been creeping up all morning.

Is it analysis paralysis? Should I just get a general feel for the direction of crude and gold or get into the detail?

I know this is a bit vague, but any thoughts would be most appreciated.

Gold hit a low the other day it will likely not break for a long time. I wouldn't be concerned with gold at this point. It should be on the rise.
