A T&S window has been asked for on this forum many times, but with no success......
I tried writing one as an indicator but it is not possible to stop the text scrolling to the left.

Tks for the reply Geoff,

It is incredible why they don't... It is a very basic feature that a software like this if want to be used by professionals NEEDS TO HAVE.

A serious trader can't trade without it.

Hello,

At the moment, there are no plans regarding this feature.

We might consider it in future but not at the moment.

Very sad that you are not interested in it.

At least you could realise an official MD indicators that really works.

Also a MARKET PROFILE indicator.

Do you?

Solidus posted a code on the TS forum (https://www.TS.com/Discussion ... _ID=104700).

if you set the Input "Volume.Threshold" to 1 it plots times and sales into the chart. Not the best solution, but works on tick/volume charts as on minute charts. Only the plotting to the right could be improved by modifiying the text_setlocation and the tading at bid/ask instead of uptick/downtick.

Change the line 111 from

Code: Select all

text_setlocation(vol.txt[ii],d,t,hval-diff*(ii+1));
to

Code: Select all

Text_SetLocation_s (vol.txt[ii], d, intportion (MinutesToTime ((GetAppInfo (7))*60*24)*100) , hval-diff*(ii+1));

and it plots the T&S to the point right and not into the bars.

nice code
thanks for sharing


one suggestion:
you can simplify the auto-decimal with this code:

Code: Select all

MyDecimalPlaces = Log(PriceScale) / Log(10) ;

Added TJ's suggestion and Daves Bid Ask Logic from viewtopic.php?f=5&t=6640, you need to set bid as Data2 and Ask as Data3

I am also interested in repositioning the print column. Any help with that?

You need to change the Text_SetLocation_s (......) lines. Take a look at "Using GetAppInfo for Chart Window information " for different time settings

One more tip:
You can put the auto.decimal in the ONCE block,
that should save some recalc cycles.

TJ,

maybe it is difficult to read on the txt file, but the Auto.Decimals is already in the Once block.

Nevertheless the code isnt really a substitution for a native solution.

Arh... you are right, my oversight. You are a good coder. This indicator can be used as a platform for other analysis. Many thanks again for your sharing.
