Hi there, I need to use a study function e.g. ATR to calculate a value that will be outputted onto the chart but I really don't need the actual ATR value to be outputted. For example, this is what I would like to do: sc.Subgraph[0].Data[sc.index] = ATR * 10; It says that if you don't want the ATR value to be plotted, you have to use Subgraph.Array[0] so do I use Subgraph.Array[0] as the output parameter? Is that correct? Also, my second question: how do I actually call the function? Do I use sc.Subgraph[0].Data[sc.index] = sc.ATR(...) * 10; ? Thank you for your help in advance. This is very new to me and I am very confused. |

Here is the relevant updated and added documentation: http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/doc_ACSIL_Members_Functions.html#WorkingWithIntermediateStudyCalculationFunctions http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/doc_ACSIL_Members_Functions.html#ArrayNotes Even when using sc.Subgraph if you do not want it to be visible simply set the DrawStyle of it to Ignore. The documentation explains this with a code sample. It says that if you don't want the ATR value to be plotted, you have to use Subgraph.Array[0] so do I use Subgraph.Array[0] as the output parameter?
Here is the updated documentation for sc.ATR: https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/doc_ACSIL_Members_Functions.html#scATR You can use either a sc.Subgraph or sc.Subgraph[].Arrays[]. There are two implementations of the function. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support. Other responses are from users.
