thanks for your feedback and info ,,i've started reading the tutorial but this
stuff is complex compared to what i've been using ie
ezyanalyser,,,
i have a big interest in Gartley's and
would really like to get this into a scan/exploration ,,
i have tried your advice of buy = mycondition
unsure where to place it though,,,there's a few theory's on where to buy
a Gartley so i thought your advice of mycondition is great ,,so
i placed it at the end of the entire script buy = mycondition;
i get error 29 ,,needs inititialzing
,,,,i've found the list of errors within help file which shows an example that
makes sense but i don't see how i can apply it to this situation ,,??

The code in the library is plotting an indicator to be drawn in
a chart.
Scan is used
for
Addtocomposite ( see help file)
or for
Scanning for
buy/sell/short/cover signals.
Therefore it wants a Buy or sell
condition added to the code, like so
Buy =1;
or Buy =
Mycondition;
Exploration can use
the same code but expects to output data into columns for you to look at,
hence it needs
a filter statement,
e.g. filter = close > 3
AND volume > whateveryoulike;
or filter = buy; // if you already
have a buy statement in the code.
and needs you to tell it what to
output into columns and how to format those columns with
Addcolumn(close, " header for column",
etc,...)
Addtextcolumn();
Search Help for
Addcolumn
and do try the User's guide, Tutorial, Amibroker
formula language, How to create your own exploration for more complete
info.

Hi,
i have found a code in the library on
the Gartley222 that i'd like to use,
i downloaded file code and copied and pasted it into
the Formula editor and saved it in the custom folder named
gartley222,,,if i then click apply indicator from within the editor i
get a new pane very similar to the chart i'm looking at ,,,i copied and
pasted everything i downloaded.
what i'd like to do is scan a watch list for
gartley's,, so next i used the auto-analyser ,,
and picked the file name that i saved in afl
format in the custom folder, gartley222 and then within "apply to"
i used "use filter -define" and selected the asx300 watchlist,,and pressed
scan,,,i then see and error ,,missing buy/sell variable
assignments,,
with the advice of check the tutorial,,,which i have
looked at ,,i assumed that the gartley222 code written would have all that
information,,,
i was going to ask for someone to check that code in the
library and are there any garley use'rs out there,,i've tried a few other
filters from the library and have the same error ,,,
so the common denominator is me,,,now looking to read up
on the difference between scan and explore,but any
advise is welcome.
