Analyze and improve your trading with video trade logging software.

The video trade recorder plug-in for Metatrader platforms (versions 4 and 5) is designed for traders who take their trading seriously and are already logging their trades using traditional trade logs supplemented by screen shots taken during their trading.

Up till now traders were only able to use pictures of charts to illustrate their trades, because traditional screen recording software produced very large video files and were not able to record several charts simultaneously.

How is the Video Trade Recorder different from traditional screen recording software?

How it works…

The Video Trade Recorder enables background recording of up to 10 independent charts on each terminal across multiple MT4/MT5 platforms (including charts that are minimized or work in the background of other charts on Metatrader platforms).

The software incorporates state of the art, on-the-fly XVID video encoding, plus inactivity time compression to produce clear motion video images of charts while maintaining the smallest possible file sizes. Two recording modes are supported by the software and the resulting video files can be played back directly in Windows Media Player. Recorded videos are stored in separate recording folders corresponding to various instances of your MT4 and MT5 terminals. Folders are accessible directly from the recorder software for ease of navigation. Video files have specially formated names for easy recognition (see recording modes for details).

When utilizing XVID encoding, the recording’s quality can be controlled directly from the Xvid Configuration panel. You may also choose to disable XVID encoding for highest fidelity of the recorded material.

Supported recoding modes

• Continuous recording mode

  This mode is supported on both MT4 and MT5 platforms. Recording starts when the plug-in is placed on the selected chart and the *REC button is pressed. The process ends when STOP is pressed or the plug-in is removed from the chart.
  The user can select the video resolution by changing the width and height parameters in the plug-in inputs

  

  Continuous trades recordings are named using the following format:

  AC_NUMBER_SYMBOL_YYYYMMDD_HHMMSS.avi

  where;

  NUMBER is the MT4 account number
  SYMBOL is the chart symbol
  YYYYMMDD_HHMMSS is the recording time stamp (local computer time)

• Event driven (onEvent) recording mode

  This mode is currently only available on MT4 terminals. The recorder starts buffering leading video once the _recordVideo indicator is placed on a selected chart and the uses click “*Start”. When a new trade is placed the software first commits the video pre-buffer and instantly starts adding live video until the trade is closed or the user presses STOP.
  The user can select the video resolution by changing the width and height parameters in the plug-in inputs.

  

  A prebuffer setting is used to record the number of ticks (user defined), which occurred before the trade was placed
  (excellent for reevaluating your entry!). Additionally the user can choose to record only the trades having a predefined “magic number”.

  Event driven recordings are named using the following format:

  AC_NUMBER_SYMBOL_ticketTICKET.avi

  where;

  NUMBER is the MT4 account number
  SYMBOL is the chart symbol
  TICKET is the ticket number of the recorder trade

You can also download another sample video (in the original form) showing a different trade. The video shows an 8 minute long trade, which was recorded using 800×600 picture resolution (the file size is 0,6 MB)
