<SPAN
class=333243011-09092003>so the position of the arrow relative to the chart is
correct and useful, but you want the chart to scroll to where the arrow is?
<SPAN

<SPAN
class=333243011-09092003>if that's what you mean, the only way I know of to do
that doesn't work in exploration mode, as far as I know. in scan or backtest
mode, once you've run your code, <FONT face="Courier New"
color=#0000ff size=2>you can right click on a
signal line in the results list and choose 'Show Current Trade Arrows'. that
brings up that particular stock's chart, displays arrows for that one trade,
only, hiding the rest, and scrolls the chart there.

<SPAN
class=910372503-09092003>Dave, thanks for responding. Using your way of
describing it, then I want the day that has the trade arrow attached to it to
be located about 30% to the left side of the HARD RIGHT EDGE of the
chart. This would allow me to
instantly view the falling chart action and the condition of
the indicators that I based my scan on. Since
the Amibroker program always positions the chart with the trade day close to
the left side of the chart, I have to move the chart to the right in order to
get a good look at what the price action of the stock was doing as it was
dropping in price.
<SPAN
class=910372503-09092003><FONT
color=#0000ff>I want Amibroker to move the chart to the appropriate
horizontal location so that the trade day, and therefore the trade
arrow, is located where I want it to be. In other words, I want
Amibroker to do the chart moving instantly for me, so that I do not have to
move it everytime myself.

what I am talking about. Ron

<SPAN
class=910372503-09092003>hi ron, I might be completley misunderstanding
your question, but the horizontal position of trade arrows is to put them on
the day they're generated. so if your system sets buy to 1 on 8/1/02, that's
the day the trade arrow shows up. typically, that's the most useful thing, so
you can look back over a period of time and see where the trades
were.
<SPAN
class=910372503-09092003>
<SPAN
class=910372503-09092003>if you want something to appear at the hard right
edge of the graph, regardless of zoom level or scrolling, I'm not sure how
you'd do that, since that could be pretty much any day.
<SPAN

<SPAN
class=910372503-09092003>sorry if I'm missing the point,

I am in the process of reading how
to do explorations. Up to now, I only run
scans.
I run scans that look at ALL QUOTATIONS
and I then view the charts by clicking on SHOW CURRENT TRADE
ARROWS.
The chart then pops up with the trade
arrow located about 17% of the chart width inward from the left
edge of the chart. I would like to have the option
to change the settings, or use AFL to make the chart pop up with
the trade arrow located about 30% away from the right edge of the
chart. This would allow me to instantly view the trend
situation and the condition of the indicators that I based my scan
on.
BTW, my scans are trying to catch falling
knives, and I look at the trajectories of the falling knives in order
to fine-tune my scans. On the right side of the trade arrow, I only
need to be able to see the first pullback or
consolidation.
Once I think a scan is ready to use
for trading, I would like to have the ability to make the
trade arrow appear at the HARD RIGHT EDGE of the chart. Then,
I will be able to practice actual trading of the scan
results.
Maybe this is already possible. I
would appreciate reading various thoughts on this
subject. Ron
