Possible to call signals from within a signal?

Postby hilbert » 12 Apr 2013

Is it possible to use other signals in a master kind of signal. Similar to the practice of calling a subroutine in a language like Visual Basic from other subroutines?

I have developed multiple signals on a single market. Currently the only options are to apply multiple signals to 1 chart or single signals to multiple charts. If it is possible to write a master signal which can "Call" other signals, my code will become much more organized and it will be possible to run an automated system from just 1 signal applied to 1 chart. Thanks.

Psuedo code follows:

Code: Select all

inputs: a(0), b(0)
var: x(0), y(0)
If x < a then call signal A
If x = a then call signal B
If x > a then call signal C
if condition1 then call signal D
if condition2 then call signal E

Hello Hilbert,

There is no such functionality at the moment.

Hello Hilbert,

Thanks Henry. I suspected this to be the case since I couldn't find anything like this in manuals or wiki.

Does such functionality exist for .NET version or for .NET version also, such thing can't be done? Thanks.

Such thing cannot be done in MultiCharts .Net at the moment as well.
If there will be a technical possibility - we will look into adding such functionality in the future.
