I've partly answered my own question with the following AFL code. It
records the information I want, but I have more than one trendline
drawn that I've labelled "UP" on the same chart and the script only
uses one of the trendlines.
//----------------------------------------------------
// Exploration to record MA values at the beginning and end
// of periods where a hand drawn trendline visibly
// approximates the MA. The idea is to measure the slope
// of the MA and record the results in an automated fashion.
//----------------------------------------------------
Buy=0;
per=50;
Lin=Study("UP");
//Cond1=NOT IsEmpty(Lin);
Cond1=NOT IsEmpty(Lin);
Cond2=IsEmpty(Ref(Lin,-1));
Cond3=IsEmpty(Lin);
Cond4=NOT IsEmpty(Ref(Lin,-1));
Cond5=Cond1 AND Cond2;
Cond6=Cond3 AND Cond4;
// The filter records the values at the begining and end of the
// hand drawn trendlines
Filter=Cond5 OR Cond6;
NumColumns=2;
Column0=BarIndex();
Column1=MA(C,per);
Column0Name="Bar";
Column1Name="50 MA";
I thought you just needed to label each trendline with whichever
label you want selected and the script would go and use the
trendline information to create signals, etc.
I have the "Range" toggle set to "All Quoatations" so its not that
I'm not looking at the proper data. What do I need to do to record
each occurence of the data?
Thanks for any help.
