excuse me sir …when I look at my code it
was same the should be on !!!
I past the should be one as :
PlotParabolaBool = ParamToggle("Plot

ParabolaCalPds =
Param("Exit Parabola Sensitivity Pds", 3, 1, 50, 1, 1) ;//sensitivity

And the error is same

Hmm… this very odd. The
code below is turned around.
What you have:
PlotParabolaBool = ParamToggle("Plot Exit
Parabola?", "No|Yes",
0); //turns parab
on/off
ParabolaCalPds = Param("Exit Parabola Sensitivity Pds", 3, 1, 50, 1, 1) ;//sensitivity calibration
What it should be:
PlotParabolaBool = ParamToggle("Plot
Exit Parabola?", "No|Yes", 0); //turns parab on/off
ParabolaCalPds =
Param("Exit Parabola Sensitivity Pds", 3, 1, 50, 1, 1) ;//sensitivity
calibration
I think I understand part of the issue now…
I cut and pasted the code you provided to the
text above. If I click in the space between
“ParabolaCalPds =” and “Param”, and then
click the keyboard Right Arrow, the cursor moves LEFT!!! (Reverse of what
it should.)
I think it may have something to do with your
system setup...
From your name and e-mail address, I assume that
you are from Saudi Arabia.
And, that your native language would be Arabic. I recall that Arabic is
written from right to left, while English is written from left to
right.
If your system is set up to reflect your Arabic
language and other local settings, it might be reversing the
code. If so, then the code that I see above may look
different on your system.
Attached is a file named “CodeSample.gif”.
It’s a screen shot of what I am seeing. On your system,
does the code written above match the screen shot?
Let me know.
Regards,
Dan.

Hi. Let’s take this a step at a
time…
First, make sure that the function is in an include
file. In my example, I called it
“FunctionFile.afl”. Make sure that your Include
File is in the Amibroker Include folder. (On my system, this is
“C:\Program Files\AmiBroker\Formulas\Include\”.)
Second, make sure that the Chart AFL
“#Include…” statement references the name of the Include
File. For example, if your include file in the include folder is named
“FunctionFile.afl”, then the correct statement in the chart AFL is
“#include
<FunctionFile.afl>”.
OK. Now let’s focus on the Chart
AFL…
First, make sure that the only parabola code that
is in the Chart AFL are these five lines of code:
#include <FunctionFile.afl>
//Change name to suit
PlotParabolaBool = ParamToggle("Plot
Exit Parabola?", "No|Yes", 0); //turns parab on/off
ParabolaCalPds
= Param("Exit Parabola Sensitivity Pds", 3, 1, 50, 1, 1)
;//sensitivity calibration
if (PlotParabolaBool)
PlotParabola(ParabolaCalPds);
Now, rem out the #Include statement and the
parabola calls. I.e. it should look like this:
//#include <FunctionFile.afl>
//Change name to suit
PlotParabolaBool = ParamToggle("Plot
Exit Parabola?", "No|Yes", 0); //turns parab on/off
ParabolaCalPds
= Param("Exit Parabola Sensitivity Pds", 3, 1, 50, 1, 1)
;//sensitivity calibration
//if (PlotParabolaBool)
//
PlotParabola(ParabolaCalPds);
Now click the “Check” button.
Do you receive an error?
If no errors, click the save button and make sure
that your original chart still works fine.
If you receive errors, I’d be very
surprised because that code is a direct copy from my main chart. It
should work fine.
Assuming no errors and that your chart works
fine, right-click the chart and check to make sure that the "Plot Exit
Parabola?" and “Exit Parabola
Sensitivity Pds" parameters are working OK.
If all checks out so far, un-rem the
“#Include…” portion ONLY. Then click check and if OK,
then click save. Check chart.
If check shows that there is something wrong, the
Include file might be in a wrong place or the code might have a wrap error.
If all is OK so far, un-rem the other two lines
in the Chart AFL and click check. Then save.
OK, try this and let me know.
Regards,
Dan.

The

The

conditions.
Since it is a best-fit curve, it changes every day, as new data are
imported.
The
logic is to engulf the Highs [for the descending curve] and the
Lows
[for the ascending curve] with a curvilinear trendline.
You
may replace now all the LastValue... statements with
SelectedValue... and see the historical parabolics.
p0
AND p1 are the boundaries of the parabolas.
The
best-fit parabolic should lie somewhere between, but the
boundaries should Cover a relatively wide range.
In
order to avoid extremes, I Plot them between LLV(L,200) AND HHV
(H,200), I think it is good [you may change 200 to 100 OR 500 anyway]
p1
will be horizontal, p0 will be sharp enough [some times will NOT
be
visible, when the very next [after the Peak] price is out of
limits].
p0
AND p1 colors are next shades to the main parabolic [color,
color+1].
BardInd_LastPeak is the BarIndex of the last Peak
BarInd_LastTrough
is the BarIndex of the last Trough
if
BardInd_LastPeak > BarInd_LastTrough then the last Peak is after the last
Trough.
In
this case [when g = BardInd_LastPeak > BarInd_LastTrough is true], the
expected parabolic should
be
descending, else it should be ascending.
H1-f*t^2 is the equation of the descending parabolic
H11+f*t^2 is the equation of the ascending parabolic
The
"parabolic=IIf(g,H1-f*t^2,H11+f*t^2);" means
If g
is true, select the descending parabolic, else select the
ascending one.
The
reason of this logic is to plot only the important parabolic, ie
the
last one. The previous parabolics have only historical value, the
last
is the "hot" for decision making.
I
hope it is more clear now.

Hi,
I took Dimitrios’ latest code and made
minor, “cleanup” mods to it.
However, I found that the code is extremely
resource intensive. So, I placed the code in a function in my
“Include” file and added a toggle parameter to turn it off and
on. The code is below. (Watch the line wrapping.)
When using it, you will need to change the
sensitivity for each chart. In an EOD chart, I usually start at 3 and
change it to suit the chart.
Regards,
Dan.
