[amibroker] Re: Examples of Say() Command?

["sidhartha70" <sidhartha70@xxxxxxxxx>]

Here's an example I used to use for highlighting extreme moves in the
TICK indices...

function SayNotTooOften( text, Minperiod ) 
{ 
   elapsed=GetPerformanceCounter()/1000; 
   Lastelapsed = Nz( StaticVarGet("lastsaytime") ); 

  if( elapsed - Lastelapsed > Minperiod ) 
   { 
     StaticVarSet("lastsaytime", elapsed ); 
     
     Say( text ); 
   } 
   
} 


if( LastValue(C)>=800 AND LastValue(C)<=1000)
{
   SayNotTooOften("Ticks plus 800",60);
}
if( LastValue(C)>=1000 )
{
   SayNotTooOften("Ticks plus 1000",60);
}
if( LastValue(C)<=-800 AND LastValue(C)>=-1000)
{
   SayNotTooOften("Ticks minus 800",60);
}
if( LastValue(C)<=-1000 )
{
   SayNotTooOften("Ticks minus 1000",60);
}
