Subject: [amibroker] question about
symbols in chart
hello,
what I sometime notice is that certain symbols
whcih I try to put at certain places in the chart seem to change if I blow
up the chart and scroll through it.
My question is: is this an indication of an
error in the code or do I not understand how exactly Amibroker operates when
plotting the chart. As an example I give the code below which is part my
interpretation of Welles Wilders "Reaction Trend System". I give here only
the calculation of the "phase". This phase is added to the chart using the
numbers 1, 2 and 3.
Now if you make a chart of INTRADAY data (e.g.
the hourly data) and not plot all the data but just like 30 days and use the
mouse-scroll to move the chart from left to right or the other way around
you will notice that sometimes the numbers change. Why is that? Is it due to
an error in coding or is it the way Amibroker calculates the
chart?
So maybe in general my question is: if I see
indicators changing in the chart when scrolling through it is this
immediatelly a sign that there is an error in the code?
thnks, Ed
part of the code. Note: try it using Intraday
data (hourly)
