Error Exception: Bad request: http://127.0.0.1:16239/req?SetLinkedSymbol(MSFT,TAN) talktomed2 @ talktomed.gs:7 Line 7 is this line: UrlFetchApp.fetch(url, options);

I have various lists in googlesheets of tickers i'm watching which contains a large amount of additional data for each symbol and would love to be able to click in googlesheets to change the symbol in MedVed. If I type the URL line - for instance this: http://127.0.0.1:16239/req?SetLinkedSymbol(MSFT,TAN) into my browser it changes the symbol so I know the MedVed settings are right. But it sends and OK message back in a new browser tab (on top of my current tab) which means it's not usable for me to scroll down a list from within googlesheets. So I did some research and was told that I could create a script in googlesheets that should do it. The script that was suggested was this: function sendHttpRequest() { var url = "http://127.0.0.1:16239/req?SetLinkedSymbol(MSFT,TAN)"; var options = { 'method': 'get' }; UrlFetchApp.fetch(url, options); } But I am getting an error message on the URLFetchApp line. Info about this is here: https://developers.google.com/apps-script/reference/url-fetch/url-fetch-app I realize this is not a medved issue but wondering if you can supply any suggestions.

Is there a way to change the time periods for hot keys on intraday charts? For instance CTRL 1 on mine is 1 minutes, CTRL 2 is 3 minutes, etc. Can I change what keys control what timeframes or is this hard coded? Thanks

Thanks @Mike Medved I actually did it and it's working but I set a random # of candles for the start point so early in the day it goes back to the day before. Is there an easy way to know how many candles or intraday peroids there have been today so far so it's a bit cleaner to look at?

Thanks. I was trying to simply the question because what I really want to do is automatically add some fib lines from yesterdays close to todays open but i thought i could add to the code myself rather than overcomplicate the question. So if there is a way to get some simple code for the open i can extrapolate from there. Thanks again.

Hi, I was looking at some of the other code and am going to try to work this out myself but if it's not too much trouble can you provide some code that would draw a line on an intraday chart at the OPEN and keep it there for the rest of the day? (The line would expand during the day...Maybe until the next day when it would disappear and the new day would appear?) Thanks

I flip through a few hunded charts a night planning my next day and set and at any point can have a number of alerts set - for a breakout buy, a pullback buy, a stop, etc. During the day - especially in the first hour of trading - I'm often heads down, looking at charts, and use the alert sound to prompt me to look up and see which alert was hit. But sometimes there are quite a few at one time. I would love an easy / fast way to change the sound on a given alert from the small parameter window rather than having to go all the way into the edit window - which takes a number of steps. If there was a way to add a drop down for existing sounds near where you have a place for a label - that would make it easy to flag certain alerts with a different sound indicting to me that it is more important than another. I would think since it's being stored in the database anyway, adding the dropdown to the parameter window might now be a big programming change. Thanks for considering.

Hey @Mike Medved It looks like you were able to incorporate this into the 2/20 beta? (Different VWAP dates for different stocks in the same window?). It looks like it's working for me - so thanks. Three things I wanted to mention: 1. If you go into the "edit indicators) then go to edit the VWAP date from there on a stock - and save - it does not change. I assume that is a bug.... but... 2. If anyone else is using this it is much easier to right click on the legend on the screen to change the date for a particular stock and then you can see in real time if you picked the right date or not ... so the bug doesn't really get in the way but wanted to mention. 3. Finally - this is really helpful so thank you again. That being said if once you opened the click on the legend and can change the date it would be cool if there was a way to visually do this on the screen by but in this case the legend modal box closes so you can't. That would make things easier but not necessary. Thanks

I wasn't sure if there was a way to do this or not but I often find nice surprise features so thought I'd ask. I set various alerts (mostly horizontal) in the system for different buy points or similar each day. I often put something in the label. It would be great if there was a way for what is in the label to over-ride the text that comes up on an alert. For instance, maybe a small check box next to the label in the line parameters that allows you to specify that the label being used for the line, when it's set as an alert, would override the note that comes out on the alert for that line when crossed.

Thanks!

Thanks Mike - I assume based on what I saw, though, and what you are saying... if i go line by line down a watchlist of stocks showing historical data and this is linked to one historical chart, all the VWAP numbers will stay the same; is that true? If so, I hope you can consider looking to find a way to implement it in a way that is more similar to other charting programs as it is becoming more popular from what I can tell. Thanks

I do mostly swing trading. I'm hearing more and more about anchored VWAP on daily charts. I'd like to try to add/play around with it but for Anchored VWAP to work my understanding is that it has to be anchored on a stock by stock basis to something that makes sense - the day of a gap, a big bar, etc. It is not the same for each stock. I was playing around tonight and when I use it the date seems to travel for all stocks in Medved - it does not seem like I can use a different date for each stock. 1. Is that true or am I missing something? 2. If it is currently just one day throughout the system - any chance adding a date per symbol can make it onto your feature request(s)? Thanks

Here are the IB and Thinkorswim charts for the same time period. They are both showing the right data.

I was watching META after hrs w/ earnings. I use "smart source" for data and have both Interactive Brokers and ThinkorSwim active as data sources. During after hrs, META was showing HUGE volume, like 90M shares traded (Picture A). I looked around and this was inconsistent with what I saw on other sites. I opened ThinkorSwim and it was only like 8M shares at the time. I also looked at a chart in Interactive Brokers and it was also showing only about 8M shares. So I cleared the data and let it backfill and the backfill numbers were right (Picture b) but as new volume came in on subsequent bars, they came in too high again (picture C) Please let me know if somehow this is a setup issue, or if you need more data/info to diagnose.

May have gotten it... using this only one sessionend

Sorry, I know this is only because I'm not that experienced at coding, but I had: And when I replace it TradingDay.IsAfterHours with TradingDay.Timestamp >= SessionEnd.SessionEnd.AddMinutes(1) I get this error: 13, 42 CS1061 'System.DateTime' does not contain a definition for 'SessionEnd' and no extension method 'SessionEnd' accepting a first argument of type 'System.DateTime' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?) And if instead I replace TradingDay>isAfterHours with Timestamp >= SessionEnd.SessionEnd.AddMinutes(1) I get this error: 13, 20 CS0103 The name 'SessionEnd' does not exist in the current context

cool; thanks I'll try it.

@Mike Medved Sometime last year you gave me some code to calculate after hrs volume. it helped but never seemed to give me the exact right numbers. the code is here: Looking at it in detail, it seems to be picking up the closing bar - right at 4pm on my system - and treating it as part of after hrs. For instance, Today TSLA had 2M shares trade in the last minute (at 4pm) and this is being picked up in after hrs volume. If I'm correct, is there a way to adjust the code or the session times to not pick up 4pm bar but start at 4:01 or something like that?

I would like to use a stock's IPO price to do some calculations and projections to draw horizontal trend lines on a chart. Since the IPO price is not in the chart (first trade on a new offering is usually not the IPO price) and not in the data, what I would like to do is have a CSV file with one line per stock holding the symbol and/or IPO price. And then being able to read that file and look up that stock as part of a paintbar formula. There are plenty of other use cases too, like being able to use the same concept. 1. I assume I'm right in not being able to do this now? There are so many features in the product I often overlook a method of doing things. 2. If not, any chance you could consider adding this at some point? Thnaks

I put an indicator on the screen to show on days with unusual volume the total amount of volume using setline. I'd like to put the multiple of normal or average volume. I've tried to use SymbolData.AvgVol but I'm not sure what average that is pulling because my math is not coming out right. Is there a way to use the variables at the top or the variables in formulas to just do my own EMA or MA of volume to use? (If not, can you tell me what SymbolData.AvgVol is calculating? Thanks

got it; thanks.

thanks. Will give it a look

Pretty basic question but so far stumped after trying to look up. I want to display a calculation as text in the setline. In this case my calculation is the division of todays volume / average volume So I have a variable = BarVolume / SymbolData.AvgVol But How do i convert that into text / string so I can include it in the setline text parameter? Thanks

Thanks Jerry
