Arw SetLocation

Modifies the location of an arrow object with the specified ID number.

Arw_SetLocation returns a value of 0 if the location of the object was successfully modified, and a value of -2 if the specified object ID number is invalid.

Usage

Arw_SetLocation(ObjectID, BarDate, BarTime, PriceValue)

Parameters

ObjectID - a numerical expression specifying the object ID number.

BarDate - a numerical expression specifying the date of the bar at which the object is to be placed; the date is indicated in the YYYMMdd format, where YYY is the number of years since 1900, MM is the month, and dd is the day of the month.

BarTime - a numerical expression specifying the time of the bar at which the object is to be placed; the time is indicated in the 24-hour HHmm format, where 1300 = 1:00 PM.

See the category Date and Time Routines for the PowerLanguage keywords for working with dates and times.

PriceValue - a numerical expression specifying the price value (vertical position, corresponding to a value on the price scale of a chart), where the object is to be placed.

Notes

• An object-specific ID number is assigned by Arw_New, Arw_New_s, Arw_New_self or Arw_New_self_s when the arrow object is created.
• Use Arw_GetActive, Arw_GetFirst or Arw_GetNext to get the object-specific ID number of an already created arrow.

Example

Move the arrow object with an ID number of 3 to the top of the current bar:

Value1 = Arw_SetLocation(3, Date, Time, High);
