Hi - If the params look weird, that sounds like AB thinks it is all one code and there are dup names in the params - perhaps it is not adding the Section_Begin and Section_End lines? Before going further, can you dragging and dropping all copies to the chart? That's what I do and so far so good.... Thanks!

I close the parameters box and then open it again and only have two Seasonality there to set Attached is the chart I end up on the third overlay along with the Parameters box and the updated afl too Thank you for your help MarkK From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Steve Dugas Sent: Wednesday, February 11, 2009 2:08 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [amibroker] Re: Creating a Year over Year comparison screen Hi Mark - I jusr checked mine, it is still working fine with 12 copies dropped on the same chart. If you can be more specific about what is happening I could try to work with you to fix it...

I open one then overlay another and on the third one it will not work anymore Thank you Markk From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Steve Dugas Sent: Sunday, January 25, 2009 7:11 PM To: Yahoo - AmiBroker Subject: [amibroker] Re: Creating a Year over Year comparison screen Hi - I was looking at that old Seasonality chart today and decided to make a couple of improvements. New code is below. Changes ( shown in attached pic ) are 1. new title format 2. can set to foreign ticker now 2. scroll current year backward, then match dates to see "projected" market direction from other years 3. setting begin/end values shows color-coded performance for that period in the title No more changes coming so it is safe to "upgrade" if you want. 8 - ) *************************************** // Seasonality SetBarsRequired( sbrAll, sbrAll ); SetChartOptions( 0, chartShowDates ); Ticker = ParamStr( "Ticker", "CURRENT" ); ShiftBars = Param( "Shift Bars", 0, -5200, 5200, 1 ); UpColor = ParamColor( "Up Color", colorSkyblue ); DownColor = ParamColor( "Down Color", colorBlue ); UnchColor = ParamColor( "Unch Color", colorWhite ); Style = ParamStyle( "Style", styleLine, maskAll ); NewLine = ParamToggle( "New Title Line", "No|Yes", 1 ); GraphZOrder = ParamToggle( "GraphZOrder", "0|1", 1 ); GraphXSpace = Param( "GraphXSpace", 0, 0, 100, 1); if ( Ticker == "CURRENT" ) { TickerPrice = Close; TickerName = Name(); } else { TickerPrice = Foreign( Ticker, "close" ); TickerName = Ticker; } if ( NewLine ) NewTitleLine = "\n"; else NewTitleLine = ""; ShiftedClose = Ref( TickerPrice, -ShiftBars ); YestShiftedClose = Ref( ShiftedClose, -1 ); Color = IIf( ShiftedClose > YestShiftedClose, UpColor, IIf( ShiftedClose < YestShiftedClose, DownColor, UnchColor ) ); if ( ShiftBars < 0 AND SelectedValue( BarIndex() ) >= BarCount + ShiftBars ) ChartDate = "FUTURE"; else ChartDate = NumToStr( Ref( Year(), -ShiftBars ), 1.0 ) + "-" + NumToStr( Ref( Month(), -ShiftBars ), 1.0 ) + "-" + NumToStr( Ref( Day(), -ShiftBars ), 1.0 ); TickerPctChg = ( EndValue( ShiftedClose ) - BeginValue( ShiftedClose ) ) / BeginValue( ShiftedClose ) * 100; if ( BeginValue( BarIndex() ) == 0 ) { TickerPctChgStr = "N/A"; TickerPctChgColor = colorBlack; } else { TickerPctChgStr = NumToStr( TickerPctChg, 0.1 ); TickerPctChgColor = IIf( TickerPctChg > 0, colorBrightGreen, IIf( TickerPctChg < 0, colorRed, colorWhite ) ); } Title = VarGetText("Title") + NewTitleLine + EncodeColor( SelectedValue( Color ) ) + TickerName + " Seasonality" + EncodeColor( colorBlack ) + " " + ChartDate + " ( " + ShiftBars + " )" + EncodeColor( TickerPctChgColor ) + " ( " + TickerPctChgStr + " ) = " + EncodeColor( SelectedValue( Color ) ) + ShiftedClose; Plot( ShiftedClose, "Shifted Close", Color, Style ); ----- Original Message ----- From: "Steve Dugas" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, January 24, 2009 1:31 PM Subject: Re: [amibroker] Re: Creating a Year over Year comparison screen > Thank you for posting - I was getting my beauty sleep... 8 - ) > > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "reinsley" <[email protected]> > To: <[email protected]> > Sent: Saturday, January 24, 2009 10:35 AM > Subject: [amibroker] Re: Creating a Year over Year comparison screen > > >> >> >> // Seasonality >> >> SetChartOptions( 0, chartShowDates ); >> >> ShiftBars = Param( "Shift Bars", 0, -5200, 5200, 1 ); >> UpColor = ParamColor( "Up Color", colorSkyblue ); >> DownColor = ParamColor( "Down Color", colorBlue ); >> UnchColor = ParamColor( "Unch Color", colorWhite ); >> Style = ParamStyle( "Style", styleLine, maskAll ); >> NewLine = ParamToggle( "New Title Line", "No|Yes", 1 ); >> GraphZOrder = ParamToggle( "GraphZOrder", "0|1", 1 ); >> GraphXSpace = Param( "GraphXSpace", 0, 0, 100, 1); >> >> ShiftedClose = Ref( Close, -ShiftBars ); >> YestShiftedClose = Ref( ShiftedClose, -1 ); >> >> Color = IIf( ShiftedClose > YestShiftedClose, UpColor, IIf( >> ShiftedClose < YestShiftedClose, DownColor, UnchColor ) ); >> if ( NewLine ) >> NewTitleLine = "\n"; >> else >> NewTitleLine = ""; >> Title = VarGetText("Title") + NewTitleLine >> + EncodeColor( SelectedValue( Color ) ) + "Seasonality ( " + >> ShiftBars + " ) " + NumToStr( Ref( DateNum(), -Shiftbars ), 1.0 ); >> Plot( ShiftedClose, "Shifted Close", Color, Style ); >> >> >> >> >> --- In [email protected], "pacific5_au" <pacific5...@...> wrote: >>> >>> Hi Steve >>> >>> Could you please post the afl coding in a message.
