Does anyone know how to access the values TradeStation uses to
display data on the screen when it is automaticly scaled? I
am analyizing intra-day data, looking for situations when price
approaches pre-determined support and resistance levels.
At times, the levels are above/below the price range displayed
on the screen, and I get "surprised" when price finally reaches
them.
The values I am trying to access within my indicator are the
ones displayed when you go through the following sequence:
Format Price Data
Scaling
User-Defined (see note below)
The top and bottom levels shown in the boxes below the
words "User-Defined")
Note: yea, I am referring to the scaling levels that T.S.
calculates when you check the "Screen" box - not the "User-
Defined" box. BUT, it displays the automaticly-calculated
levels under "User-Defined", and lets you edit them if you
want to over-ride.
I could just use the High/Low of the day +- some margin. But,
on some days, the extremes get re-tested later in the day, and
don't provide the alert that I need.
The built-in function "@PriceScale" sounds like what I'm after
(at least in name), but is nothing close. I guess my question
is simply if I'm missing some functions like "@TopPrRange" /
"BottomPrRange".
Thanks
