Time & Sales EL for multicharts .net - how to convert?

Postby Azharr » 09 Apr 2013

Code: Select all

// Original Code from https://www.TS.com/Discussions/Topic.aspx?Topic_ID=104700
// Solidus SDO time and sales
// Use on daily chart with Streaming Data Optimization enabled
// see input descriptions below


// Added or changed by SP for MC: TextLocation, Automatic Decimals, Block Alert as border, TextSize

//DefineDLLFunc: "GetMachineTime.dll", Float,"MachineTimeMillD";

input:
Rows ( 30 ), // max of 100
Show.Header ( false ), //added Jan 2011 by SP
Auto.Decimals ( true ), //added Jan 2011 by SP
Dec.Places ( 2 ), //decimal places for price data
Short.Price ( 0 ), //abbreviates price display, e.g., 25.25 instead of 2025.25
Volume.Threshold ( 20 ), //minimum volume to display
Show.Block ( true ), //added Jan 2011 by SP, draw a border on block levels
Alert.Threshold ( 50 ), //minimum volume to alert; must be larger than volume.threshold
//Alert.Divisor ( 100 ), // used to shorten alert sound; suggested value:100
Time.Setting ( 1 ), //time setting=2 to show full time; setting=1 to drop hours
Text.Size ( 8 ), //added Jan 2011 by SP
Up.Color ( green ), // color when trade is an uptick
Down.Color ( red ), //color when trade is a downtick
Heading.Color ( yellow ) , //color of heading at top
Block.Color ( White ); //added Jan 2011 by SP

wonder when will 8.7 be released...

MultiCharts .Net 8.7 with Time and Sales functionality is (roughly) expected in May.
