I've been struggling to find out how to do this in ACSIL. I've trawled the documentation but can't find a solution - but maybe I've missed something. I've coded a study to start a plot based on an anchor (vertical line user drawn drawing) as a start point. The study creates the line and the plot is created from that bar onwards. However, on moving the line the plot is not re-adjusted. 1) Autoloop is set to 1 2) Chart interval update is set to 500 msecs 3) I'm running this out of market hours which I guess may affect any update? 4) sc.RecalculateChartImmediate(0) won't work - presumably because the code isn't being rerun anyway. 4) On turning Trade Simulation on or off it will update the study / plot as will adding any other study or 'Apply'. The documentation infers this anyway. If the line is moved manually then I need the study to be run - the plot re-adjusted without me having to hit any buttons or select any other options. Can the line be polled for any movement from the existing study or any other study/option? I need this outside of the symbol market hours when no ticks are coming in. Thanks. |

Using Drawing Tools From an Advanced Custom Study Can the line be polled for any movement from the existing study
Using Drawing Tools From an Advanced Custom Study: sc.GetUserDrawnChartDrawing()I need this outside of the symbol market hours when no ticks are coming in.

sc.UpdateAlways did the trick. I'm guessing it should be use sparingly with a 500msecs or greater update to keep the CPU overhead down? Geez - will I ever get through the scale of all the documentation :) Thanks a bunch. Much appreciated. Date Time Of Last Edit: 2021-06-29 21:31:39
