RE: [amibroker] Relative performance chart title help, AmiBroker Email List Archive

As Dan said, just put the \n in the loop. I have done that for you below:

_SECTION_BEGIN("Relative Performance");

_N( TickerList = ParamStr("Tickers", "^DJI,MSFT,GE") );

NumBars = 20;

fvb = Status("firstvisiblebar");

Plot( 100 * ( C - C[ fvb ] ) / C[ fvb ], Name(), colorBlue );

for( i = 0; ( symbol = StrExtract( TickerList, i ) ) != ""; i++ )

{

fc = Foreign( symbol, "C" );

if( ! IsNull( fc[ 0 ] ) )

{

Plot( 100 * ( fc - fc[ fvb ] )/ fc[ fvb ], "\n" + symbol, colorLightOrange + ( (2*i) % 15 ), styleLine );

}

PlotGrid( 0, colorYellow );

_N( Title = "{{NAME}} - Relative Performance [%]: {{VALUES}}" );

_SECTION_END();

Terry/Dan,

I've tried the n thing before but the problem is the title in the built in relative performance charts is one line. So when I insert \n into the code it does move the tickers vertically but they are still one big line across. This normally isn't a problem but I have quite a few tickers on the pane and about half of them get cut off.

Hi,

I use this a lot for supporting data. Here’s the title string for one of my key charts.

Subject: [amibroker] Relative performance chart title help

is there a way to get the relative performance title to show up
vertically on the left hand side of the chart pane rather than
horizontally across the top?
