[amibroker] Re: Plotting problem

["Lester Vanhoff" <ebsn247lsm@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

1) Instead of "for" loop use IIF(), it's easier:

2) Use PlotShapes() to plot dots, arrows, etc. on the chart:

http://www.amibroker.com/guide/afl/afl_view.php?id=206

Your code should look something like this:

dotlocationLong = L - 3;
dotlocationShort = H + 3;

// specify variables
PivotMALong = ??;
PivotMAShort = ??;

IIF( ... your conditions here ... );

// plot the main chart
Plot( Close, "", colorBlue, styleCandle );

// plot your shapes
PlotShapes( ... );

/////
Below is an example of the code for PlotShapes. This is just one possible method, there are a few different ways of coding this:

//***START ***//

Title = Name()+"  \\c11"+Interval(format=2)+"  "+Date()+"\\c-1  C="+C+"\\c11  "+FullName();

Plot(C,"",colorBlue, styleCandle);
Plot(EMA(C,14), "", 32, 1);

Buy =Cross(C, EMA(C,14));
Sell=Cross(EMA(C,14), C);

PlotShapes(shapeUpArrow   * Buy,  colorGreen, 0, L, -15);
PlotShapes(shapeDownArrow * Sell, colorRed,   0, H, -15);

SetChartOptions(0, chartShowDates); // show Date on X-axis

// to prevent your shapes to move beyond the 
// top/bottom of the chart use this:
GraphXSpace = 5;

//***END ***//
