hello,
to my knowledge chart/indicator paneling is the default in AB. however
with AFL you can visually customize within a custom pane to some extent.
plotting indicators with attribute styleOwnScale is the first way to go.
combined with AFL Param switch you can easy "turn ON/OFF" your
indicators.
but there are other possibilities. for example you can determine the
highest value of visible bars, rescale the plot 10% higher (by plotting
invisible line). now you can put your own indicator at the free space at
the top there. again you must use rescaling tricks.. in some cases you
can loose proper values on axies for the second indicator. but if you
just want to see if lines cross, this may be OK if you don't like
separate panel.
another way is to use layers. unfortunately, with your supposed usage in
mind this creates a constraint of some kind.. layers were not designed
to plot indicators with help of line/histogram style etc. you can only
plot shapes there (circles,triangles..) but I use this approach in some
cases. it enables you to check/uncheck custom layer within a single
click that causes shapes (which reflect indicator value)
appear/disappear form pane.
I hope I didn't mislead you with this info. I quite new user to
AmiBroker as well.
cheers,
BM
