[amibroker] TrendLine Scanning: Far from satisfactory



PureBytes Links

Trading Reference Links

Further to previous email today I found one more issue.


Setup 1.
In a stock price chart (say ranbaxy) I drew a upper channel and gave STUDY
ID as RE.
Scan for trendline crack and I got the alert... (the name ranbaxy came up).


Set Up 2.
Draw any random line on the chart which doesnot cuts the price anywhere and
give it studyID as RE.
Next draw a upper channel (as in setup1) and gave STUDY ID as RE.
Scan for trendline crack and I DONT get the result. (the name doesnot comes
up)

Does it means I would get result only with the frist drawn Trendline which
is amrked as RE?

Thomas or anyone who can guide on this?
How can I get an alert for any trendline (amrked as RE) cross.. not just the
one I drew first.

Anyone faced this issue earlier?

my afl for trendline scanning is this
===================
ret = Study("RE", 1002);

Buy   = Cross(C, ret);
Sell  = Cross(ret,C);

AlertIf(Buy,   "", "",1,1 );
AlertIf(Sell,  "", "",2,1 );

AlertIf( Buy , "SOUND C:\\Windows\\Media\\Ding.wav", "Audio alert", 1 );
AlertIf( Sell, "SOUND C:\\WINDOWS\\Media\\ir_inter.wav", "Audio alert", 2);
=====================

One more thing I saw while scanning..

when i select favorites only in filter I get my result..
and when i select a watch list in the filter->inlude I get fewer
results..(seems the result come only from the watch list)

image attached.
Is this some known issue which is resolved in latest versions?

regards
