Re: [amibroker] Finding Information --tooltips, AmiBroker Email List Archive

Dear Tomasz,
If i use the code as such I get only o,h,l,c,v. If change the code to one as in "Price (all in one).afl" , and choose all values in parameter tab I get values of close and other values like ema etc only, not o,h,l. How to get all values including o,h,l

See "Price (all in one).afl" code shipped with AmiBroker. It contains what you are looking for

ToolTip=StrFormat("Open: %g\nHigh: %g\nLow: %g\nClose: %g (%.1f%%)\nVolume: "+NumToStr( V, 1 ), O, H, L, C, SelectedValue( ROC( C, 1 )));

Iou,

I have not used this mode before, but I just took a look to see what you were getting at. After playing with it for a few minutes after turning it on in the Preferences / Misc window, I see that it duplicates the information about the x,y (Date,Price) location normally seen at the bottom of the window, but now shown next to the cursor (with a timeout). It is not showing OHLC data. However, if you place the cursor on the open of the bar, it will show that price (more or less within a pixel).

If you want a tool tip to show OHLC for the bar, I am sure that it can be programmed in AFL, but I have not tried to do it yet.

BR,

Dennis

Price data tooltips

if checked small tooltips will appear when you hover over the chart displaying selected bar date, prices / indicator values

That is exactly what I want but it doesn't work. Somewhere there is another "modifying" command that will not allow me to see the Open and Close prices, but where? This then is the start of hours of searching - or the initiation of this e-mail to the forum for help. Will I get a comment such as "Read the documentation stupid."?

PS - Would also appreciate help with the tooltips thing.
