  1. I made a paintbar - to show for ADX > 30. Seems to work ok - see that green bar on top. (ADX is the red line on the ADX chart). Did you try putting your scan on the chart to see what it shows?
  2. They are sending timestamps in L2 feed that are off by an hour.
  3. For now, Compare_Symbol can be used in paintbars but is a problem in Scans. Looking into it.
  4. Click on the Advanced option in the ribbon menu to convert the scan to C# code...
  5. The indicator has certain criteria it uses to find the 3 points to draw lines through. In this case, that criteria was satisfied on a lot of points that overlap. Tighten the criteria and they will disappear.
  6. When/if this happens again, please send us your setup from Help/Send Settings to Support and add in comments on which chart this happens.
  7. Everything you place on the chart has a "detect bubble" around it so you can move it or edit it. Indicators, for example. It's a compromise that helps usability at the expense of having once in a while problems drawing. You have to start the drawing at an "empty" spot on the chart. One thing you can do if one of the anchors of the drawing just needs to be right next to let's say an indicator line, draw it a bit off, then move it.
  8. For each indicator you can do set as default not to show value and from then on when you add THAT indicator it won't show value. There is no global "Set as Default" option.
  9. Since you're using the PB on intraday chart, have to use intraday pivot points. Can't use Historical indicator on an intraday chart, the chart has no data for it.
  10. Chalp if it is a bug we really do want to fix it. Question: do you use "Peg" on your capsules to peg the price to bid or ask etc?
  11. Chalp, please bear with us. When you say "catch it" what do you mean. Can you describe what exactly you're doing and what is happening. Is the capsule jumping around by itself or do you have to do something to cause it to do that?
  12. Chalp - on videos we dont see mouse clicks and drags. So to clarify: 1. You drag the stop capsule downwards 2. You release it. It jumps back up? 3. What happens if you drag the capsule itself, not the line? 4. What happens if you drag slowly. Like take 5 seconds to drag to make sure? That is the bizarrest thing. Trading acct - what brokerage? What data feed?
  13. If you're comparing two floating point values for equality, you definitely shouldn't just == them. You can do Math.Abs(A-B)<0.01 if you want to limit it that way. Easier than rounding them up and would take care of the case where one rounds up and the other rounds down. And yes you can do ONE plot per paintbar, for anything you want. That's the SetYValue function (in general, this page:https://www.medvedtrader.com/trader/WebHelp/advanced_-_all_available_funct.htm will probably be very helpful). So if the 50SMA is called SMA50 - you can just do these two lines: SetColor("% diff",Color.Lime); SetYValue(100*(SMA50-Close)/Close); You'd need to place this paintbar on the extra chart - either above or below the main one. And probably set the shape for the paintbar to size 1 so that the shapes do not obscure the line.
  14. The paintbar editor doesn't know what chart colors you use (since they can vary on different charts and paintbars are for all charts). So it uses the default chart color set.

    LOG SCALE

    It is a pain to deal with it on intraday charts, and since the scale range on intraday charts is generally so much smaller than on historical ones (with very rare exceptions), log scale is not really needed.
  16. Ok the pulldown is blank because you have not created any named colors yet for this paintbar - that is, you haven't entered a name for a color in this or another rule. Not sure about it switching to pink when you type something as a color name - doesn't happen for me. What are the exact steps?
  17. The N2 parameter was being ignored (was same as N1). I changed that. Maybe that is what was causing it.
  18. ... kinda like a Word doc where you can put in notes and paste chart snapshots?
  19. You're absolutely right. I inverted the last step. Will fix it and it will be in next beta.
  20. Will be in next beta. Not today's - but next one.
  21. Yes. Market data sources for charts and portfolios and trading are separate and independent in MT. The only time the market data source and trading site are related is in places like the Account View's Positions or Transactions - but even for that you can have a separate market data source specified for this trading site n the Settings for the trading site.
  22. The beta Jerry is putting out today has it flashing. Audio would be a bit much.
