Drew,

 

you need to use TimeFrameExpand, so:

 

TimeFrameSet( inDaily ); // switch to daily frame

compressedClose = Close;
movingAverage = MA( Close, 2 );
firstStopPrice = BuyPrice - (mmStp *exitAtr );
postStopPrice = firstStopPrice + (stopParmB * (High - (stopParmA
*exitAtr )) - firstStopPrice );
stopPrice = Max ( firstStopPrice, postStopPrice );
firstLimitPrice = BuyPrice + (ptLimit *exitAtr );
limitPrice = firstLimitPrice - (limitParmA*(firstLimitPrice -Close));
Buy = cross(Close , movingAverage );

TimeFrameRestore(); // restore time frame to original

 

// expand arrays to current timeframe

Buy = TimeFrameExpand( Buy, inDaily  );

 

// now you should see the shapes

PlotShapes(shapeUpArrow*Buy, colorGreen, 0, graph0, -10 );

 

rgds, Ed

Subject: [amibroker] TimeFrameExpand

Just downloaded AB Professional and found these wonderful timeFrame
functions. This software is a beautiful piece of work.

Question: how do I show buy/sell signal arrows on a timeFrameExpanded
indicator signal?

E.G
TimeFrameSet( inDaily ); // switch to daily frame
compressedClose = Close;
movingAverage = MA( Close, 2 );
firstStopPrice = BuyPrice - (mmStp *exitAtr );
postStopPrice = firstStopPrice + (stopParmB * (High - (stopParmA
*exitAtr )) - firstStopPrice );
stopPrice = Max ( firstStopPrice, postStopPrice );
firstLimitPrice = BuyPrice + (ptLimit *exitAtr );
limitPrice = firstLimitPrice - (limitParmA*(firstLimitPrice -Close));
Buy = cross(Close , movingAverage );

TimeFrameRestore(); // restore time frame to original

and then

PlotShapes(shapeUpArrow*Buy, colorGreen, 0, graph0, -10 );

but no arrows appear.

Thank you and best regards,

Drew Yallop
