Hi all,
I wrote this code as an exercise of new mouse function of MC.
It's a percent ruler between two points drawn with left click of mouse.
Hope it can be useful.
Regards
Massimo

Re: Percent ruler with mouse
How can we vote on percent change measurement tool similar to tradingview?

Re: Percent ruler with mouse
You can use the Fibonacci Retracement Price Lines drawing tool.Hi,
I can't find the built in ruler of Mc to calculate % difference between two points.
It's a basic feature for a trading software.

Massimo
Look for this icon in your drawing tool bar.

Fib retracement tool doesn't address the requirement
A trend line measuring tool [TS approach], or [Tradingviews approach] is more appropriate
Trading View
OR

The tool offered above is a start, however, it does not remain and not user friendly.

Re: Percent ruler with mouse
I am familiar with the retracement calculator, however, it also lacks the functionality desired.Retracement calculator
It shows percent of range "retraced" not percent of "value" changed
Appreciate the thought, thank you for the link.

Re: Percent ruler with mouse
I would appreciate if somebody can help me out on this. Sometime back while browsing the Multicharts support forum, I remember seeing a post
where a user had some enhancement to this indicator such that the colors will be different for the upswing and downswing measurements.I think the user had made it use Red color for downswings. I am not able to find that post despite lot of searching. I would be thankful if someone would give the
correct link for that post.

Re: Percent ruler with mouse
Attached minor modification of maxmax68 indicator. This indicator uses the left click mouse + ctrl key entry to initiate the data reference points on the chart. This prevents the indicator from starting a calculation with any mouse click on the chart. Also, an input was added to set the text size of the calculated result on the chart. The 0% size was not changed, but easily could be.
