Thanks Tomasz,

It works well and I learned something new about AFL.

Hello,

Either:

SetForeign(fname);

myMFI = MFI(periods), myc; //This is where it is problematic
RestorePriceArrays();

Or:

Temp1= Close;

Temp2 = Volume; // volume also needed for MFI

Close = Foreign(fname, "C");

Volume = Foreign(fname, "V
myMFI = MFI(periods); //This is where it is problematic
Close = Temp1;

Volume = Temp2;

Hi Tomasz,

Thanks for your personal response. I am still not sure how to do it... and not sure to understand how you do the trick.

Here is what I tried to do:

_SECTION_BEGIN("Foreign MFI");

Filename = StrLeft(_DEFAULT_NAME(),StrLen(_DEFAULT_NAME())-2);
_N(Title = filename + StrFormat(" - {{DATE}} {{VALUES}} "));

// you can use a list like this or import them from a watch list
//fName = ParamList("Symbols", "");

fname = GetBaseIndex();

//fname=MFI (periods);

//fname = ParamStr("Symbol", Name() );

myC = Foreign(fname, "C");
myMFI = MFI(periods), myc; //This is where it is problematic

Plot(myMFI, "\n" + fName + " - MFI", colorBlue);

_SECTION_END();

What is wrong in this code?

Thanks,

Louis

It is possible. Just overwrite close array;

Tmp = C;

C = your array

..here any indicator

C = Tmp;

BTW, is it possible to do this with other indicators, considering I think only RSI has RSIa... I'd like to do the same with MFI and other indicators, but not sure how to do it.

Thanks,

This is one way to do it,
Barry

_SECTION_BEGIN("Foreign RSI");

Filename = StrLeft(_DEFAULT_NAME(),StrLen(_DEFAULT_NAME())-2);
_N(Title = filename + StrFormat(" - {{DATE}} {{VALUES}} "));

// you can use a list like this or import them from a watch list
fName = paramlist("Symbols", "IBM,BA,DD,DDM");
perRsi = param("RSI period", 12, 2, 50, 1);
myC = foreign(fName, "C");
myRSI = RSIa( myC, perRsi );

plot(myRSI, "\n" + fName + " - RSI", colorblue);

_SECTION_END();
