I have quote board linked with two charts so that the charts change symbols based on what I click in the quote board. The charts are "volume per bar" charts and not time-based. Is it possible to change the periodicity depending on the symbol selected? For example, selecting symbol XYZ changes the chart to 5000V, and ABC changes the chart to 1000V? |

Yes, I do this using ACSIL. e.g. //Check if the first two characters of the symbol are "ES"
int IsES; IsES = sc.Symbol.CompareNoCase("ES",2); if (IsES == 0) {
see sc.SetBarPeriodParameters()
//if the symbol is ES then set the volume per bar to 5000V- use sc.SetBarPeriodParameters here n_ACSIL::s_BarPeriod NewBarPeriod; NewBarPeriod.ChartDataType = INTRADAY_DATA; NewBarPeriod.IntradayChartBarPeriodType = IBPT_VOLUME_PER_BAR ; NewBarPeriod.IntradayChartBarPeriodParameter1 = 5000; //Set the bar period parameters. This will go into effect after the study function returns. sc.SetBarPeriodParameters(NewBarPeriod); } Date Time Of Last Edit: 2019-12-06 11:51:45
