Re: Range Countdown

Henry - I did not mean specifically that I was looking for the countdown in ticks as that would be impossible to know. I meant a countdown in terms of the range. Without confusing terminology here, I was looking for a countdown on, for example, a 6-point chart when price has moved 4 points and hence...

Range Countdown

Hi - is there a way to include a countdown on a range chart along the price axis? I typically use tick charts for which I have a countdown telling me how many ticks are remaining in the current bar but I do not see the same feature for range charts. I do have 'Countdown' checked in the price scale s...

Erase Single Point or Text

Hi - Is it possible to erase a prior portion of a plot or text within code? For example, if I were plotting points on the low of every 3rd bar, is it possible to erase/delete/hide the point plotted 6 bars ago? If it's not possible with plots, is it possible with text? I'm writing an indicator to hig...

Volume Delta Type in Scripts

Is there a way to access the additional information provided by the Volume Delta chart type (beyond OHLC) within scripts? Specifically, is it possible to access the intra-bar volume data by tick?

Thanks,
Mark

Re: Length of VariableSeries

Thanks, Henry. What if I had a static method (inside a static class) which took VariableSeries<> myVariable as a parameter and returned, for example, the average of the latest 5 values of myVariable? As far as I know, ExecInfo would not be available to this function. I suppose I could pass MaxBarsBa...

Length of VariableSeries

Hi -

Is there a way to determine the length of a variable of type VariableSeries<>? If I am looping through each bar in Bars, I can know when to stop with Bars.CurrentBar. How can I ensure that I do not go "out of bounds" when looping through values of a VariableSeries<> variable?

Thanks,
Mark

[0] vs .Value [SOLVED]

This may be an obvious question with an obvious answer, but is there a difference between Bars.Close[0] and Bars.Close.Value (in general, not just with .Close)? From what I can tell, there is not as they seem to be used interchangeably.

Thanks,
Mark

IQFeed Daily [SOLVED]

Using IQFeed, is there a way to specify that daily bars when used in a chart or supplied from IDataLoader represent 9:30am-4:15pm EST only for a market that may trade closer to ~24 hours (e.g., E-mini S&P on globex)? I know we could create a custom session but it seems that would affect only sub-dai...

Hi - I just downloaded the 8.5 Release Candidate and noticed that the PL Editor window is now behaving differently on my laptop.
