RE: [amibroker] is AB for perfect super-users only?

Further, linked just means the chart is linked to your actual formula so changes affect the "real" formula. Unlinked means, as Thomas pointed out, that the formula uses a temporary name such as Unamed 9.

 

The behavior you saw is clearly NOT normal. It has never happened to me and I cannot explain why it happened to you, but that is not the way AB works. Maybe support can offer some insight.

Hello,

 

one important stuff you should know is the difference between "Insert" and "Insert Linked".

Search in the amibroker help about this description.

 

If you add a new indicator you can see where it is stored and under which name on the title line,

here Unnamed 297 in the custom folder.

 

I would also recommend to use layouts to save your windows.

 

 

To change any existing indicator you could make a right mouse button click over the chart and select "Edit formula".

 

 

Best regards

I wonder how many other AB users had an experience similar to what
just happened to me:

Wanting to try an indicator that was in one of the messages of this
board,
I inserted it (unlinked) to a new window (unlinked).

I did some changes to it and then clicked by mistake on the "Apply
Indicator" button
instead of "save".

To my astonishment one indicator pane of all my other (linked) windows
changed to
the newly edited indicator I was working on. No warnings, no
explanation, and
no way to recover.

None of the other window panes were selected at the time. Why that
particular
pane was selected in the unselected windows and overwritten is a
mystery to me.

One week of careful tweaking just went down the drain at a click of a
button.

BTW, how to apply changes to the current indicator just to the
selected unlinked window
is a mystery to me.

Is it something I am overlooking? Or, is this unforgiving behavior
unacceptable?
