Re: [amibroker] GAT string construction

["Edward Pottasch" <empottasch@xxxxxxxxx>]

hi,

 

this is how I do these things. Below an example how one could extract the datestring from Now();  I leave the time part for you,

 

rgds, Ed

 

 

ts = Now();

sl = StrLen(ts);
strpos = 0;
cnt = 0;
for (i=0; i<sl; i++) {
      
   if (StrMid(ts,i,1) == "/") {
      
      strpos[ cnt ] = i;
      cnt = cnt + 1;
            
   }
         
}

// extract month
sp1 = strpos[ 0 ];
mt = StrMid(ts,0,sp1);
if (StrLen(mt) == 1) {
   mt = "0" + mt;
}
// extract day
sp2 = strpos[ 1 ];
dy = StrMid(ts,sp1 + 1, sp2 - sp1 - 1);
if (StrLen(dy) == 1) {
   dy = "0" + dy;
}   
// extract year
sp3 = strpos[ 2 ];
yr = StrMid(ts,sp2 + 1,4);

// construct date string
dat1 = yr + mt + dy;   
"date string: " + dat1;

Subject: [amibroker] GAT string construction

Hi Guys,

I'm trying to place a "GAT" ( GoodAfterTime ) order using IB controller.
Is there a good way to construct a current time string in "YYYYMMDD
HH:MM:SS" format? as in "20070614 18:00:00"?

Thank you
Eric
