A few years ago, Tomasz added the ability for dynamic input in
some but not all functions, such as:
HHV
LLV
HHVBars
LLVBars
Sum
Ref
WMA
DEMA
TEMA
MA
LinRegSlope
LinearReg
LinRegIntercept
StdErr
TSF
(If I missed any, please let me know)
Some time ago, he also showed how to do EMA through AB coding
so it would change its lookback on the fly,
so other changing some other AB functions may
be possible also.
If I had to pick the one most significant improvement that was
added to AB over the years, for me, this would be it.
Everything else I could work around or used some other
software for.
It easily doubled the usefulness and scope of
the formulas that I use.

Subject: [amibroker] Adaptive indicators
/ variable periods
I’ve looked but can’t
find anything to help me…hope someone here can shed some
light.
As far as I can see,
with the exception of AMA, the “standard” indicator functions, such as RSI,
will not accept variable periods…i.e. they can’t readily be made adaptive by
using an array as an input. I want to use a modified version of Ehler’s
Dominant Cycle Period (which I already have) as the period input to RSI and
stochastic momentum (the bit I’m stuck on).
Before I go off and try
and build these up from ground level I was wondering if anyone has any advice
or could turn me round and point me in the right
direction.
