get data2 in market scanner

Postby ctu1121 » 12 Oct 2012

Hi there,
May I write indicator code to get data2 information on market scanner?
I would like to compare 5 stock, could I write indicator to get the close of data2 to data5
in order to do some calculation. Thanks!

Hello Charles,

Only data1 is available in the scanner, you can reference only it.

Hello Charles,

Only data1 is available in the scanner, you can reference only it.
So, is there no way to create / display a relative performance ratio in the scanner, then? There is no way to hard-code code to compare the current symbol in the scanner to the S&P 500?

You can do that with the help of global variables or using MultiCharts .Net.

Any advances on this at MC so that we can use calculation of multiple datas in the scanner ? That would to bad that I would have to move to MC.net and learn a new programming language just to have access to this
thanks

It isn't cancelled; its status is 'Not reviewed' meaning that no one has looked at it to see if it's technically possible/feasible to implement.

Once they research it, it becomes 'Under review'. If it becomes cancelled, its status will go to 'Declined'. If it will be implemented, its status goes to 'Confirmed' and 'Released' once its actually available.

It's not uncommon that it takes more than a year before a PM request is 'Under review', sadly.

yes, probably 10 votes around the world are not enough for the staff.

hopefully they simply forget and we remind..

MC staff, this is possible to implement in next version?
