Easylanguage Displaying Additional Decimal

Recommended Posts

So, the new build of OEC Trader comes out and works just dandy (well kind of) but one of the things it did change was how it calculated some of my indicators.

 

This is the easylanguage code for the ADXVMA:

Inputs:
ADX_Bars(5),
MA_SMA_1_EMA_2_HMA_3(1),
Extra_MA_Length(1),
DownColor(Red),
UpColor(Blue),
ChopColor(Yellow);

Vars:
TR(0),DI_Diff(0), DI_Sum(0),ma(0),pdm(0),mdm(0),pdi(0),mdi(0), DI_Factor(0), VI(0), diff(0), HHV(0), LLV(0),WeightDM(ADX_Bars),
WeightDI(ADX_Bars), WeightDX(ADX_Bars),ChandeEMA(ADX_Bars),out(0),j(0),MAPlot(0); 

  ma=Close;    
  pdm=0;
  mdm=0;
  pdi=0;
  mdi=0;
  out=0;

  pdm=0;
  mdm=0;
  if(Close>Close[1]) then pdm=Close-Close[1] else mdm=Close[1]-Close;//This array is not displayed.

  pdm=((WeightDM-1)*pdm[1] + pdm)/WeightDM;//ema.
  mdm=((WeightDM-1)*mdm[1] + mdm)/WeightDM;//ema.

  TR=pdm+mdm;

  if (TR>0) then begin
  	pdi=pdm/TR;
  mdi=mdm/TR; end else begin
  pdi=0;
  mdi=0;
  end;

  pdi=((WeightDI-1)*pdi[1] + pdi)/WeightDI;//ema.
  mdi=((WeightDI-1)*mdi[1] + mdi)/WeightDI;//ema.
  DI_Diff=pdi-mdi;  
  if (DI_Diff<0) then  DI_Diff= -DI_Diff;//Only positive momentum signals are used.
  DI_Sum=pdi+mdi;
  DI_Factor=0;//Zero case, DI_Diff will also be zero when DI_Sum is zero.
  if (DI_Sum>0) then out=DI_Diff/DI_Sum else out=0;

  out=((WeightDX-1)*out[1] + out)/WeightDX;

  if (out>out[1]) then begin 
  	HHV=out;
LLV=out[1]; end else begin
  HHV=out[1];
  LLV=out;
  end;



for j = 1 to adx_bars-1 begin	
  if(out[j+1]>HHV)then HHV=out[j+1];
  if(out[j+1]<LLV) then LLV=out[j+1];
  end;




  diff = HHV - LLV;
  VI=0;
  if (diff>0) then  VI=(out-LLV)/diff;


  ma=((ChandeEMA-VI)*ma[1]+VI*Close)/ChandeEMA;//Chande VMA formula with ema built in.


if MA_SMA_1_EMA_2_HMA_3 = 1 then MAPlot = average(ma,Extra_MA_Length);

if MA_SMA_1_EMA_2_HMA_3 = 2 then MAPlot = xaverage(ma,Extra_MA_Length);

if MA_SMA_1_EMA_2_HMA_3 = 3 then MAPlot = JTHMA(ma,Extra_MA_Length);

 Plot1(ma,"ADXVMA");
 Plot2(MAPlot,"ExtraMA");

#function jtHMA	 

Inputs: price(NumericSeries), length(NumericSimple); 
Vars: halvedLength(0), sqrRootLength(0); 

{ 
Original equation is: 
--------------------- 
waverage(2*waverage(close,period/2)-waverage(close ,period), SquareRoot(Period) 
Implementation below is more efficient with lengthy Weighted Moving Averages. 
In addition, the length needs to be converted to an integer value after it is halved and 
its square root is obtained in order for this to work with Weighted Moving Averaging 
} 

if ((ceiling(length / 2.00) - (length / 2.00))  <= 0.50) then 
halvedLength = ceiling(length / 2.00) 
else 
halvedLength = floor(length / 2.00); 

if ((ceiling(SquareRoot(length)) - SquareRoot(length))  <= 0.50) then 
sqrRootLength = ceiling(SquareRoot(length)) 
else 
sqrRootLength = floor(SquareRoot(length)); 

Value1 = 2.00 * WAverage(price, halvedLength); 
Value2 = WAverage(price, length); 
Value3 = WAverage((Value1 - Value2), sqrRootLength); 

jtHMA = Value3; 

 

Originally the indicator plotted its calculations like this... 89.781, now on the new version of OEC everything is rounded to 89.78. That extra .001 actually plays a key role in how I want to trade so is there any way to force the code to give me an extra decimal spot?

 

*and i guess I should mention that the attached code is in OEC version... it won't import to TS unless you copy/paste the function and compile it separately...* I was just hoping this was an obvious quick fix that wouldn't require importing it.

 

Cheers!*

Just go to Format Indicator, then Scaling, and find there "Custom Decimal Places" - chang to 3 and it should work they way you want.

 

Also, using this word "round", gives you the ability to round the number to 3 decimals in the code:

 

plot1( round(close, 3));

Thanks for your suggestions... I tried the OEC version of what you said and changed the "Additional Fractional Digits" of the data box to 3 (it was on 1) however it made no change.

 

I also did the rounding change to the plots and again nothing.

 

I would just do a numtstr tag and manually change the print.... but OEC doesn't support that.

 

Anyone know of an OEC supported print function that I can added decimals to?

Thanks for all the helpful ideas gents. Turns out this is a platform bug that is being addressed and they have given me a similar workaround to AAA's suggestion until its fixed.

 

Cheers!

Hi to Everybody,

I would like to have some help with ADXVMA indicator.

1) If somebody can help to have the Metastock version.

2) OR if somebody could "explain - describe step by step the code of the indicator" so i could try to .....

Thanks in advance for any help.

Best Regards

Dimitri

    • Date: 2nd April 2025.   Market on Edge: Tariff Announcement and Volatility Ahead!   The US economic and employment data continues to deteriorate with the job vacancies figures dropping to a 5-month low. In addition to this, the IMS Manufacturing PMI also fell below expectations. However, both the US Dollar and Gold declined simultaneously following the release of the two figures, an uncommon occurrence in the market. Traders expect a key factor to be today’s ‘liberation day’ where the US will impose tariffs on imports. USDJPY - Traders Await Tariff Confirmation! Traders looking to determine how the USDJPY will look today will find it difficult to determine until the US confirms its tariff plan. Today is the day when Trump previously stated he would finalize and announce his tariff plan. The administration has not yet released the policy, but investors expect it to be the most expansionary in a century. President Trump is due to speak at 20:00 GMT. On HFM's Calendar the speech is stated as "US Liberation Day Tariff Announcement". Currently, analysts are expecting Trump’s Tariff Plan to impose tariffs on the EU, chips and pharmaceuticals later today as well as reciprocal tariffs. Economists have a good idea of how these tariffs may take effect, but reciprocal tariffs are still unspecified. In addition to this, 25% tariffs on the car industry will start tomorrow. The tariffs on the foreign cars industry are a factor which will particularly impact Japan. Although, traders should note that this is what is expected and is not yet finalised. Last week, President Trump stated that he would implement retaliatory tariffs but allow exemptions for certain US trade partners. Treasury Secretary Mr Bessent and National Economic Council Director Mr Hassett suggested that the restrictions would primarily target 15 countries responsible for the bulk of the US trade deficit. However, yesterday, Trump contradicted these statements, asserting that additional duties would be imposed on any country that has implemented similar measures against US products. The day’s volatility will depend on which route the US administration takes. The harshness of the policy will influence both the Japanese Yen as well as the US Dollar.   USDJPY 5-Minute Chart   US Economic and Employment Data The JOLT Job Vacancies figure fell below expectations and is lower than the previous month’s figure. The JOLT Job Vacancies read 7.57 million whereas the average of the past 6 months is 7.78 million. The ISM Manufacturing Index also fell below the key level of 50.00 and was 5 points lower than what analysts were expecting. The data is negative for the US Dollar, particularly as the latest release applies more pressure on the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates. However, this is unlikely to happen if the trade policy ignites higher and stickier inflation. In the Bank of Japan’s Governor's latest speech, Mr Ueda said that the tariffs are likely to trigger higher inflation. USDJPY Technical Analysis Currently, the Japanese Yen Index is the worst performing of the day while the US Dollar Index is more or less unchanged. However, this is something traders will continue to monitor as the EU session starts. In the 2-hour timeframe, the USDJPY is trading at the neutral level below the 75-bar EMA and 100-bar SMA. The RSI and MACD is also at the neutral level meaning traders should be open to price movements in either direction. On the smaller timeframes, such as the 5-minute timeframe, there is a slight bias towards a bullish outcome. However, this is only likely if the latest bearish swing does not drop below the 200-Bar SMA.     The key resistant level can be seen at 150.262 and the support level at 149.115. Breakout levels are at 149.988 and 149.674. Key Takeaway Points: Job vacancies hit a five-month low, and the ISM Manufacturing PMI missed expectations, adding pressure on the Federal Reserve regarding interest rate decisions. Traders await confirmation on Trump’s tariff policy, which is expected to impact the EU, chips, pharmaceuticals, and foreign car industries. The severity of the tariffs will influence both the JPY and the USD, with traders waiting for final policy details. The Japanese Yen Index is the worst index of the day while the US Dollar Index is unchanged. Always trade with strict risk management.
