Re: Multi series calculation/indicator/plotting error (MC v8

Hi Andrew, Sorry, the inputs are never used in the script so I didn't include it in the code snippet. In any case, I've provided the 3 items in the attached zip file. Hope you guys can figure this out soon! My trading signal is based on multi-series calculations so I've had to revert to version 8.5 ...

Multi series calculation/indicator/plotting error (MC v8.7)

On the latest version of MultiCharts 8.7 (Build 7634), there appears to be a bug with multi-series calculation and plotting. The issue is described below: - I have 2 instruments inserted into a chart, actually one continuous futures contract (6E #F) but at two different resolutions: 50-contracts (Da...

Can not plot live Globex data after Independence Day holiday

I'm currently using MC 6 Beta 4 and when I tried opening my Globex charts (6E, 6J, ES, etc.) this morning, I found that the chart data ended at 4 July at around 23:00 exchange time. It's as if the charts stop receiving data after the US holiday. I'm using eSignal as my data provider and I know the d...

As a somewhat related question, is there a limit to the size of the MC database? My database is creeping towards 4GB and I'm always afraid that there's a size limit to the 32-bit implementation of MC. Further, is there an utility that periodically compresses the MC database? I've noticed that whenev...

Thank you for your insight. Is there a way to prevent this error from happening? Can I write something in the indicator to tell MC to not reference bars before the data is even loaded?

With regard to my issue of variables syncing, I ended up writing an additional indicator which does nothing other than calculating the required values and mapping them to a shared list using ELCollections. This "dummy" indicator is added to SubChart #1 while the indicator that I want to appear on th...

Error in study "Study Name" :: Not enough series l

I'm applying a custom indicator to a constant volume bar chart. The indicator is applied successfully when I manually add it to a chart. However, whenever I open the chart from a saved workspace, I get the following error message: Error in study "Study Name" :: Not enough series length. Bars referen...

Hi bowlesj3, You're right about how indicators are processed in a top-down sequence (after rearranging the order of the indicators a few times). Unfortunately, the indicator I want to process first should be placed on the bottom of the chart window. That's why I had issues with variables syncing. Al...

Indicator calculation order

I want to apply two different indicators to one chart with one indicator passing shared variables to the other via GlobalVariable.dll and ELCollections.dll. However, the receiver code in one indicator requires the sender code in the other indicator to finish before it can do anything. As such, is th...

Add data series within indicator script (PowerLanguage)

Is there a way to add a second data series within an indicator script? For example, in my indicator, I want to plot one oscillator line based on the bar values of the current chart resolution (constant volume bars of 200). I also want to plot a second oscillator line based on the bar values of a dif...

Sorry, my mistake. I found out that the nested WAverage DOES indeed work, albeit VERY slowly. The code for WAverage is very inefficient so when the smoothing lengths are large, it takes a long time for the calculations to complete. In the end, I got around this issue by writing a fast execution weig...
