DT,
the
D&D procedure promises to simplify my code significantly. I can use many
ParamFields() to pass any number of arrays from (D&D) module to
module.
I
think D&D greatly helps "connect" and simplify cascading code segments. It
will reduce naming complexities as we can develop code in modular form, i now
pass arrays from one module to another with an invisible plot. In fact i am
breaking up lengthy code into smaller modules which i can D&D to create my
earlier complex single-code indicator - i am finding new opportunities because
it is so easy to cascade indicators: new relationships
are emerging.
I also
find the D&D a time saver as it lets me "play" with functions and indicators
in a small fraction of the time it took me to do the same in code. The new
procedure is experiencing some growing pains :-) and some users may have to
learn some new concepts, but this is what gives the AmiBroker
user "the technical edge" needed to do better than others. It will help
us develop new trading methodologies - soon we'll have a very smooth code
building machine.
Yes,
users will have to have a basic appreciation of what they are doing in afl, but
so is that the case with trade delays, loops, and a myriad of other techniques.
There is a learning curve, but this is not any different as compared with any
other TA platform, except that this one has a future :-)

regards,
herman.
Thomas,
d&d is a big help but it is not
magic, we should know some AFL basics
to make it work.
RSI() is applied
to Close, you need RSIa() to get the RSI of an MACD
for example.
Zig()
should be applied to positive arrays only a Zig over an MACD
would work
via d&d BUT the result will be wrong [since MACD is
negative from time
to time]
IMHO this is the only negative impact of the d&d, users should
not
use it like a toy, a good AFL knowledge is required to make things
easier.
On the other side, when we d&d 2 or 3 indicators in the
same pane,
take a look at the IB code : It is perfect, it is VERY WELL
written
but it is not written by the user !!After the great result of the
magic "Apply" button, the user should study carefully the new code
and
understand its structure. I do not thing it is easy, especially
because
the magic result is already available in the new pane.
Just some thoughts
on the new d&d feature, nothing more...
