Hello Guno,
Previously I did the same thing by hand, ie using drawing tool.
However - This was hard to manage for some rather unapparent reasons -
which I'll not go into right now.
I may be able to point you in the right direction however. (Turn Right)
This path is for EOD. For RT just add times I guess.
1st up - You want to get that data into Amibroker.
Mabie reformat the datafiles ready to dump to Amibroker.
* Use V to store value 1/2, 3/4 etc. Depending on Buy/Sell stage.
* Add the extention -TH to each ticker to Identify it later.
Set it up like this:
> 2004-08-24,13:20:23,2004-08-24,13:38:20,BSX,35.82,35.85
Ticker Date O H L C V
BSX-TH 2004-08-21 35.80 35.80 35.80 35.80 1
BSX-TH 2004-08-21 35.83 35.83 35.83 35.83 2
BSX-TH 2004-08-24 35.82 35.82 35.82 35.82 3
BSX-TH 2004-08-24 35.85 35.85 35.85 35.85 4
Once you have this data in Amibroker, You can then write an indicator
that will:
Take the current ticker name and use Foriegn(Ticker-TH).
--> Now we have Current Ticker and Ticker contianing Trade data.
Then do a for loop in the indicator, Drawing all 1-2, 3-4 data as
linearrays. (Possibly a bit of tricky AFL coding here)
So when you select your stock - All imported data is displayed as trades
in the form of LineArrays.
Im 99% sure this would be doable.
(I have done similar showing Dividend dates)
ATB
Michael.
(There is always a better way)
