OEC Show Case

[Chouca 10]

I struggled to sort out the Show Case function in OEC - the documentation isn't there so it wasn't obvious...

 

Anyway, as an example to point out the bars with volume lower than the previous two bars, insert Custom Indicators, Show Cases.

 

In the condition field : (volume < volume[1]) && (volume[1] < volume[2]).

 

I tried with the AND statement instead of && - but it is C-language NOT EasyLanguage....support helped me to find out...

 

Choose marker Size and style as desired.

 

In the "where to show" field I tried to put high + 0,5 but that doesnt work - why I don't understand - anyone...???

 

I put in high + ticksize instead and that puts the mark two ticks above the high.

Hi Martin,

 

Try: high + TickSize + 0.2 or bigger if you want more distance.

In addition the coloring study can be used, see picture.

Cheers.

I was actually searching for some more info on the OEC custom indicators on the charts.

Problem was there did not seem to be much via the OEC website, and I became a little confused when they talk about easy Language, and then suddenly switch to C+

 

Is there a reasonable help file that I have missed - I have found some - but they are pretty poor....or as a non programmer, should I just not delve too deeply in OEC custom indicators yet? (I follow enough easy language to get by, but it seems OEC is not really a program to worry about customizing just yet)

suggestions? thanks.

I am like you. Pretty good at easylanguage, but C# seems like greek to me. The best bet is to make your indicators in EL and then right click and "translate to C#", once you toy around with that you can start to pick up on little things, like setting defualts of color, size, etc.

 

Give it a try and if you need some help, I'll do my best.

High + (TickSize * X)

 

will also work to create more distance, where X is any integer
