Easy Language - Help with Simple System

Recommended Posts

I luuurv EL it really is ...well easy. There is a downloadable reference guide on TS site somewhere. Another advantage is there is a huge wealth of public domain code you can cannibalise.

 

What I'd do is open up a couple of TS studies and see how they work. Start with a simple moving average or whatever takes your fancy. You might have to look a couple of things up but you'll be knocking out simple studies in no time.

 

Cheers.

I know you have coded up some indicators in the past and posted them freely on this forum and for that I thank you for your generosity. I do have a simple EL question for you. How would one store the opening 60 min high and low as a variable to be used for other calculations? Thanks in advance.

 

What is it you need doing? ( You can send it by PM if you want )

 

Cheers

if you are using an hourly chart you could say "if date<>date[1] then..." and then save the high and low of this bar using whatever variables you want.

This is just a way of identifying the first bar of the session.

another route is to declare a name for a variable like this (on 60-min chart):

 

vars: aa(0), bb(0);

 

if time=1030 then aa=high;

if time=1030 then bb=low;

----

then you can reference aa or bb in further code.

 

 

or for 30-min chart:

 

vars: aa(0), bb(0);

 

if time=1030 then aa=highest(h,2);

if time=1030 then bb=lowest(l,2);

 

etc...

-----

depending on further code, sometimes may have to write as:

 

if time=1030 then aa=high else aa=0;

Thanks bh_trade

 

Yes, it would be as waveslider mentioned on his post if your using an hourly chart, or alternatively if your using a smaller timeframe chart, then putting an "endtime" as input would be easy enough for you.

 

Here's an example of the code you would need.

 

Inputs:

endtime (1030);

 

Vars:

HH(0),LL(0);

 

if date<>date[1] then begin

HH = high;

LL = Low;

end;

 

if time <= endtime then begin

if high > HH then HH = High;

if Low < LL then LL = Low;

end;

 

Hope this helps

Thanks to both Blu-Ray and Waveslider for responding. Blu-Ray, I was looking to access the first hour highs and lows on a lower timeframe chart, so your solution was the one I was looking for - thanks again.

    • Question: To those that had/have cancer, what were the signs that made you think “something is not right here” to make you go see a doctor? Answer: So, 5/25/2018, I woke up, got ready for work, and as I walked to my car, I started gagging. Like something was stuck in my throat and I needed to clear it. And then it went away.   But 10 minutes after that, I was T-boned at 40mph on the driver side door. But what made me see a doctor was while my muscles felt better and bruises were going away, the gagging still continued, I started having fevers, my neck felt swollen, I was having such a hard time breathing, and I'd have random sharp pains in my chest, but not from where the seat belt saved me.   2 weeks after the accident, I finally see an urgent care doctor, who looks me over, tells me I'm fine, but luckily requests a neck X-ray. And I ask for a chest X-ray, which he rolls his eyes but let me have (most of my pain was in the neck, so I understand).   The very next day, he calls and says “So, that chest X-ray shows there's a 4 inch mass on your heart and lungs, and your lungs have been filling up with fluid, as well as in your pericardial (heart) wall. We need you to come in tomorrow.”   Turns out the big mass, due to the accident, caused my heart and lungs to tear and fill with fluid, the swollen neck and gagging was caused by 2 metastasized tumors, and the fevers and weight loss were symptoms. Stage 4b Hodgkin's Lymphoma.   But thankfully, we went very aggressive with chemo (and had a lot of bad side effects that don't normally happen to patients), and now I'm about 16 months cancer-free. Yay lucky X-rays!
