Re: [amibroker] Plotting Vertical Lines at fixed interval, AmiBroker Email List Archive

Ton,

No secret about it - I am attempting something that is Gann related. However, the Gann Square tool won't suffice for this purpose. With what I have in mind, I hope to end up with a roadmap channel based on the currently selected bar (which should ideally be a suspected pivot low or high). Bill's latest suggestion cracks the problem for me. But thank you for the suggestion.

Regards,
Lal

Lal I don't know what you want to do with the lines but why not using the Gann Square Tool in AB ?

Regards, Ton.

Bill,

Here's the screenshot showing how the vertical plots appear. As you can see, the vertical lines appear at a regular interval, but necessarily from the selected bar. What I desperately want is that from the bar which is currently selected, the vertical plots should appear on the right at the specified interval (calculated by the AFL itself, which is not an issue).

My understanding is Cum(1) counts the bars right from the very first bar for the ticker. That might explain why the plots appear in the wrong place. Can we solve this by other means?

Thanks,
Lal

Bill,

Thank you for the response. I've incorporated your suggestion and it does seem to work. However, there is a slight problem. Will post again with a screenshot showing what is happening. But I think we're nearly with the solution!

Thanks,
Lal

Nope, got it backwards:

plot(iif(barindex( ) >= selectedvalue( barindex( )), .....

Bill

Try this:

plot(iif(selectedva lue(barindex( )) >= barindex(), cum(1)%20 == 0, null), "", color, stylehistogram| styleownscale) ;
