Anthony,
Very nice, thank you! :)
I had to get rid of some line breaks when I pasted in the code to
indicator builder. It added a line break between one of the sets of
quotation marks and also it added a line break in between part of
one of the WriteIf functions. After those changes, it does exactly
what I wanted.
Maybe my last post didn't make sense to everyone. After looking at
it, in my code:
col=
Would be a new "word". Actually I just never knew what was going on
exactly. Someone had given me that code before I purchased
Amibroker. Then when I looked in the tutorial I saw similar code
for coloring bars. It too, used the "col" word. I just figured
that was some sort of function or something.
I think Amibroker's instructions aren't really suited for Newbies.
Maybe whoever wrote the instructions expected the users to have some
programming knowledge or something as a prerequisite of sorts.
Well, whatever.
Thanks for the help. I guess there are a number of ways to solve
the problem I was having.
Jim
