[amibroker] plotshapes problem
The following formula acts right when I use the commented out PlotText line. But if I use the PlotShapes line instead, the shape is plotted for every bar. What am I doing wrong with the plotshapes? Thanks, Richard bcount = 0; bperfect = 0; for( i = 4; i BarCount; i++ ) { if(bcount == 9) { bcount = 0; bperfect = 0; } if(Close[i] Close[i-4]) { bcount++; // for perfection, low of 8 or 9 must be less than lows of both 6 and 7 if(bcount==8) { if((Low[i] Low[i-1]) AND (Low[i] Low[i-2])) bperfect = 1; } if(bcount==9 AND bperfect==0) { if((Low[i] Low[i-2]) AND (Low[i] Low[i-3])) bperfect = 1; } } else { bcount = 0; bperfect =0; } if((bcount == 9) AND (bperfect==1)){ //PlotText( + bcount, i, L[ i ]-.10, colorRed ); PlotShapes(shapeDigit9, colorBlue, 0, L[i], -20); } else if(bcount){ PlotText( + bcount, i, L[ i ]-.10, colorBlack ); } }

The stock data in Amibroker is a simple database. Please address this point: 1. Amibroker should never delete old stock/futures data just because new data is coming in. All that is needed is for Amibroker to limit the amount of data it is willing to pull in historically from some specified start point in the past. Whether that is a certain number of bars or a specific date range, that's fine. Like I alluded to, if I have 5 years worth of something like ES tick data as a continuous contract in one file and I want to backtest (or view) a date range in that data, then I should have some way in Amibroker of specifying a start date and end date for the data segment to be pulled in for processing. Here's what Amibroker currently 'says': I'm going to use all of the data you have for a symbol. If you have too much, then I am going to blow out the PC's memory. Game over. Here's what Amibroker should do: If there's too much data for a symbol, let the user specify a date range for testing/viewing or so many bars leading up to the present bar for testing/viewing. The actual physical size of that data on disk remains intact, just not all available for processing due to memory limitations. Hi everybody, just my two cents opinions: one thing is to use AMB with historical intraday data, and, in that case there's no problem I'm aware of.

Sorry to hear from Tomasz that Steve' suggestions (reported above) would require much time and effort. However, given that not every AMB user has the confidence to touch the Windows registry and it is not always practical to remember that every X days you have to save older data in order to avoid their distruction on a FIFO basis, I would kindly suggest Tomasz to think a bit more about this matter. How many more AMB users could use the software to collect real time data, if no more work is required in order to save them all (this is one of tha main purpose of people collecting real time data, isn't it?)? I humbly feel the ten days of projected work should be faced with the question above, and not with the global value of the time required, valued on an hourly basis.

And I told you - it costs $4800 if you want to have it implemented your way. If you want to pay for custom programming we can discuss it.

[amibroker] Help- Finding the highest and lowest for a certain period of time
Hi, I am pretty new to Amibroker and still have a lot to learn. I am trying to use AFL to detect the highest and lowest for a given period of time. So far I have not been successful. Eg. I want to find the highest and lowest for the period between 3rd March 2007 to 23rd July. I start by drawing 2 vertical lines on those dates and then name then V1 and V2. Now I want to find the highest and lowest between these 2 automatically using AFL. I have looked at HHV and LLV but I don't see how I can use them for my situation. I will be most grateful if someone can give me some pointers or point me in the right direction. Thanks. -- Michael
Re: [amibroker] Re: Please Help
The IIF() statement in Plot() is still wrong - remove the ) after upcolor so that you have the same type of construction as you used for barcolor.

[amibroker] Win = AB.ActiveWindow issues. symbol never changs
Hello I would like to understand the criteria that is used to return the Active window. My assumption is that it would reflect the active chart that i am currently viewing in AB. The prob that i have is that this produces a snapshot of the symbol SHOO all the time. I am lookng at a different chart and it still does not produce the snapshot of the lastest symbol that i am viewing. Seede function DateDemo(){ var d, s = ; d = new Date(); s += d.getFullYear(); s += d.getDate() ; s += (d.getMonth() + 1) + _ ; s += d.getHours() ; s += d.getMinutes() ; s += d.getSeconds() ; return(s); } AB = new ActiveXObject(Broker.Application); Win = AB.ActiveWindow; Win.ExportImage( c:\\temp\\ + Win.document.name+ _ + DateDemo() +.bmp, 800, 600 );

Re: [amibroker] Help- Finding the highest and lowest for a certain period of time
One way to go is to use range markers, rather than drawing vertical lines. Using BeginValue(), EndValue(), and range markers you can define the range period and then find HHV() and LLV().

[amibroker] ESignal RT feed and Explorations - Symbol limits?
Hello I did a search here and found a post by Tomasz that says this eSignal subsciptions have limits on number of simultaneous symbols and only that number can be really fed in real-time. AmiBroker can however scan larger universe provided that you are using Professional version and wait for backfill check box is checked in Auto-Analysis screen. Note however that once you exceed the eSignal limit, the program needs to switch active lists and perform backfilling and it slows down scanning process *a lot*. eSignal may also start to throttle your downloads (backfills) if they detect a lot of such activity. Now... I have an eSignal account with 200 symbol limit. I have an End Of Day database with about 225 stocks in it. When I run an exploration on that database... I get results from azpn to xmsr - that is, the results seem to come from the entire range of the 225 stocks in the database. However, when I click on the eSignal Data Manager and choose Data-- Symbols, I see a list with about 134 items. The very first stock is listed there, and then a postion of the list starting with the letter 'H' is there. This is weird. First, AB seems to have done the explration on stocks that are not in the list shown as being accessed by the Data Manager. Second, the Data Manager shows only 134 items. I might expect it to show 200 of my 225 items(running up agianst the symbol limit) but not 134. I tried checking the 'Wait for Backfill' box as suggested and here's what happened. I ran the Exploration agian and I got two more symbols than I did the first time (without checking the 'Wait for Backfill' box. However, the two extra results I got were on stocks that were actually in the list of 134 that showed in the Data Manager BEFORE I checked the 'Wait for Backfill' box. Does anyone know exactly what is happening when you are using eSignal's RT data feed to establish an EOD database and then running an exploration on that database, when the database contains more than 200 symbols?
[amibroker] Re: ESignal RT feed and Explorations - Symbol limits?
I would just like to clarify one thing with regard to this post. I am in no way suggesting that these results have anything to do with Amibroker, the Exploration function or any other aspect of the program. I am sure that there is some issue with my symbol limit. I have been doing some experimenting and sometimes, eSignal seems to allow me access to more than 200 symbols, sometimes not. Basically I am trying to figure out if I need to keep my Norgate Premium Data EOD service if I have the eSignal feed, or if I can run my nightly explorations on my universe of stocks using the eSignal feed. I am assuming that my eSignal Premium subscription does not include access to the EOD database. If it does, I am going to feel pretty silly. I can't find any mention of it at the esignal site..
