RE: [amibroker] Re: Charting different indicators on different Sheets

[Terry]

There is a HELP manual with these simple kinds of answers in it. You will also find more info there that we can give since we'd have to re-write the HELP pages. I know HELP is sometimes difficult when "you don't know what you don't know", but I already told you what to use :-)   To get you started I copied this from HELP complete with examples, and a note from Tomasz about Parameters being independent.   PARAM - add user user-definable numeric parameter Exploration / Indicators (AFL 2.3)   SYNTAX Param( ''name'', default, min, max, step, sincr = 0 ) RETURNS NUMBER FUNCTION Adds a new user-definable parameter, which will be accessible via Parameters dialog : right click over chart pane and select "Parameters" or press Ctrl+R allows to change chart parameters - changes are reflected immediatelly. "name" - defines parameter name that will be displayed in the parameters dialog default - defines default value of the parameter min, max - define minimum and maximum values of the parameter step - defines minimum increase of the parameter via slider in the Parameters dialog sincr - automatic section increment value (used by drag-drop interface to increase default values for parameters) WARNING: default/min/max/step parameters have to be CONSTANT numbers. This is because these values are cached and are not re-read during subsequent formula evaluations. EXAMPLE Sample code 1: ticker = ParamStr( "Ticker", "MSFT" ); sp = Param( "MA Period", 12, 2, 100 ); PlotForeign( ticker, "Chart of "+ticker, ParamColor( "Price Color", colorLightYellow ), styleCandle ); Plot( MA( Foreign( ticker, "C" ), sp ), "MA(" + WriteVal( sp, 1.0 ) + ")", ParamColor( "MA Color", colorRed ) ); Sample code 2: sp = Param( "RSI Period", 12, 2, 100 ); r = RSI( sp ); Plot( r, "RSI("+WriteVal(sp,1.0)+")", ParamColor("RSI Color", colorRed ) ); Buy = Cross( r, 30 ); Sell = Cross( 70, r ); PlotShapes( shapeUpArrow * Buy + shapeDownArrow * Sell, IIf( Buy, colorGreen, colorRed ) ); SEE ALSO PARAMCOLOR() function , PARAMSTR() function PARAMCOLOR() function , ParamTime() function , ParamDate() function Comments: Tomasz Janeczko tj --at-- amibroker.com 2006-02-19 06:18:23 Note that Parameters are INDEPENDENT for each chart pane and for Automatic Analysis window. In Automatic Analysis window parameters can be modified using "Parameters" button and they are independent from ones you use for any chart.   -- Terry   -----Original Message----- From: amibroker@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of thorstef2003 Sent: Sunday, July 30, 2006 09:21 To: amibroker@yahoogroups.com Subject: [amibroker] Re: Charting different indicators on different Sheets   Terry, I don't know how to use PARAM. Please provide an example for whatever you are trying to say. I have just tried copying the "Price" indicator and saving it as a custom indicator with a different name as Prashanth advised. Inserting the "new" indicator creates a blank pane, which I later found was because AB uses internal code to draw the price chart. Can someone help out with a paste of just the "Price" indicator?   --- In amibroker@yahoogroups.com, "Terry" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > You can use Insert Linked (or not) and simply make your values available > as parameters (see PARAM statements).
