Hi Guys, Seen this post of a guy who trades custom algo with MC but I dont understand how he keeps it secure what do you think? ?
Who says he keeps it secure? He THINKS he keeps it secure. A hell of a difference. Multichart needs an internet connection with your PC. Just like Tradestation and others. If not the program will not work. So the door is open.
If company is reputable and wants to steal data they can do it without any trouble. When it is possible to hack $100 M from a central bank: http://finance.yahoo.com/news/hacke...m-bangladesh-account-at-ny-fed-155946761.html then I think it should be easy to hack a simple Alex's computer. I only guess that Alex is trying to intrigue us and he is waiting we start to ask him to reveal his system because it is so unique and so successfull that everybody is trying to steal it from him... Sorry for being sarcastic I just could not hold myself...
Its not about that we know theres some very skilled hackers out there. What im asking what are the best steps one can do to protect themselves with custom strategy in MC.net ? I got hacked and lost thousands so it does happen.
Well, I think this whole issue comes down to the integrity of Multicharts as a company. MC has the "key" for everyone's encrypted strategies. So what ??.....as long as it's never given away.
Q:How does one reference a dll? A: It depends on the type of the dll you are using. For C# dll you need to add a reference in PowerLanguage .Net Editor (Right click on the workarea with the code in PowerLanguage .Net Editor->References-> Add reference/Add global reference). For C++ dll you need to reference the functions that are provided by this dll for ex: Code: [DllImport( "mTestMCdll.dll", CharSet = CharSet.Unicode )] public static extern void CreateGPanelHDCHWND( IntPtr hdc, IntPtr hwnd ); For COM dll please refer to this page. 32bit dll will work with 32 bit version of MultiCharts only. 64bit dll will work with 64 bit version of MultiCharts only. Q: How to protect .Net studies? A: There is no built-in password protection for studies in MultiCharts .Net. The most effective protection is to move the main part of the code into C++ library and then reference this library from C# study. HOW SECURE DO YOU THINK THIS IS ?
