Vertical Study Line Dates 

 

Spent several hours on this yesterday - I must not be reading something
right.  Let me rephrase the question,  On a horizontal study line you can
read the value of the study (x-axis ) and use it to compare to other values
in AFL.  For a vertical line - what is the value being returned - dates,
datenum, nulls, true/false?  I am assuming it is a date - but it must be
something else.  I would like to ultimately read the y-axis (date) and
display it in a low level graphics table - but right now I can't even read
it,  

 

Test Code follows :

Filter=1;

OSSID=1070; 

AddColumn(Study("OD",OSSID),"OD1",formatDateTime);

AddColumn(Study("OD",OSSID),"OD2");

 

 

Any steering in the right direction is appreciated   I am sure I am missing
some very basic point.

 

Best Regards

Dave

This is probably going to be easy.  I am working with some low level
graphics and want the difference between two vertical study lines (dates) -
number of days.  I realize that "currently" the low level graphincs works
with numbers (not dates) but I was hoping that the daysremaining would come
out to be an interger (like subtracting 2 dates in excel) or I could make it
come out as an integer.   There must be a trick or function as I am sure you
can do this.   

 

 

I have the following code:

 

Daysremaining = Study("OE",OSSID) - Study("OD",OSSID);

PrintInCell(StrFormat("%g",Daysremaining),6,4);

 

 

Thanks in advance

Dave
