Re: what keyword to use to get bid and ask price of data
I think you need to plot bid data or ask data and then refer to that data stream- Example--
data1 = ES
data2 = bid price
data3 = ask price
format instrument , settings, "quote field" allows you to choose bid or ask to plot..
(I don't think you can access bid or ask directly in PLE without plotting them ...maybe in .net version)
data1 = ES
data2 = bid price
data3 = ask price
format instrument , settings, "quote field" allows you to choose bid or ask to plot..

thanks sptrader
doesn't it sound strange if in quote manager we can put bid ask trade in the same symbol but in PLE we cant use one data to refer to the same symbol?

I loaded bid and ask into my symbol and checked them by editing data,
but why when I plot insidebid of data1, it only plot 0.
what does this mean by '
Quote Fields cannot be referenced historically.

Re: what keyword to use to get bid and ask price of data
I searched it in multichart wiki and get this
Usage
InsideBid
Notes
Quote Fields cannot be referenced historically.
Use InsideAsk to get the current best Ask for the symbol.
Example
InsideBid
Will return the current best Bid.
it doesn't show up any example. where can I find it?
thanks

Will return the current best Bid.
Quote Field = real time price
current best Bid = real time best bid
ie. not for historical use

Re: what keyword to use to get bid and ask price of data
i c, so there's no way to get bid and ask from data1, except plot bid,ask separately in the chart and refer them as data2,data3.
right?
