How do i do this ?

Postby aljafp » 10 Dec 2007

Say i have the following chart window:

symbol 1 plotted on subchart 1
symbol 2 plotted on subchart 2
indicator 1 base on symbol 1 on plotted subchart 3
indicator 2 base on symbol 2 on plotted subchart 4

I also want indicator 2 to draw a trendline on subchart 2 since it is based on symbol 2.

Can i do this ? i tried both tl_new and tl_new_self and both doesn't work.

thanks

thanks for you image....

But think you did not answer my query.
Using your example... say from the hull moving average which is based on TRIN on subchart 2, beside plotting the hull moving average on subchart 4, i also want to draw a trendline on SUBCHART 2 on the trin itself ?

I've tried TL_NEW and TL_NEW_SELF and they both don't work.

Just base your study on the second data stream and it works with TL_New.
The example shows Trendlines from the High to the Low drawn on the second data stream.

thanks ABC, but think you need to reread what i am trying to do....

OR Let me explain again
Subchart 1 symbol 1
Subchart 2 symbol 2
Subchart 3 say some MACD histogram based on symbol 2 and from this indicator i also want to draw trendlines on symbol 2 on subchart 2.. how do i do that ?

TL_new will draw on subchart 1
TL_new_self will draw on subchart 3....
But i want to draw the trendline on subchart 2 ....

Tssupport can this be done with MC ?

thanks

Exactly like I mentioned above. In the screenshot is the same indicator drawing Trendlines, only with an added MACD based on Data2.

It's a simple standard MACD based on the second datastream, the only change is a piece of code drawing the trendlines, but this doesn't affect the MACD in any way.

inputs: FastLength( 12 ), SlowLength( 26 ), MACDLength( 9 ) ;

ok, now i see your macd , so you mean the trend lines drawn on ER2Z7 on subchart 2 is drawn by the macd indicator on subchart 3 ?
And you are simply using TL_NEW ?

thanks

You are correct. The MACD on subchart 3 is based on subchart 2 and drawing the trendlines on this subchart, because of TL_New.
