RE: [amibroker] Studies & Layers question

["Terry" <MagicTH@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Ton,

 

Thanks for testing. 

 

When I draw it the first time, it works. If I later try to move it by
dragging, one end or the other "jumps" to a price point. This using the
"Horizontal line" tool.

 

I have since found you can move it EXACTLY by changing properties and
specifying a new price.

Question 2: Can anyone confirm this behavior. If so, I will file a report on
feedback.

 

If have tried to simulate what you are saying but without success. For me
the hor. line tool works fine. Whatever I do, it just stays where it is ...

I started using studies to draw support lines and find two problems. 

 

#1. I keep versions of my systems (charts). This is just good practice.
Whenever I make more than a minor change, the chart filename changes from
"mySystem_v1.afl" to "mySystem_v2.afl", etc. So, I spent all day putting on
S/R lines and then made a revision. I deleted v26 and installed v27. Voila,
no S/R lines..all gone on all symbols! If I just edit the chart and reapply
with the same name, the studies are preserved. I suppose studies are tied to
chart IDs and this makes sense, thus explaining the disappearance.

 

Question 1: Is there a way to somehow "save" the studies so I can continue
to version# my code without losing hours of work re-locating and re-drawing
support lines for a dozen symbols? 

 

#2. Using the horizontal line tool. This tool works fine until you reselect
it to try and move it or change colors or just by accident while clicking
bars. It "jumps" to a price level and is no longer horizontal. Very
annoying, but I can redraw it. 

 

Question 2: Can anyone confirm this behavior. If so, I will file a report on
feedback.
