Tick Bar - Ticks remaining

[lassiter]

Is there a study that would show the number of ticks remaining before a bar is complete?

As an example using a 144 tick chart, a bar has 100 ticks so far, so the study would display 44 ticks remaining until the bar is complete...

The enclosed script should do what you asked
Alex

function preMain() {
    setPriceStudy(true);
    setStudyTitle("TIB counter");
    setCursorLabelName("TIB counter");
    setShowCursorLabel(true)      
}

var y = 0;

function main() {

var x = getInterval();
var n = parseInt(x);

if(1==1)
y += 1;
if(getBarState()==BARSTATE_NEWBAR){
y=1;
}
var z = n-y;

drawTextRelative(3,close(),z,Color.blue,null,Text.BOLD|Text.VCENTER,"Arial",12,"TIB");

return z+" ";
}

How To Make EFS file

I have tried to copy and paste this formula to make anew new efs file...and can not copy and paste the text nor save the text to clipboard.

When I see these codes like this how do I save to make into an efs file I know how to uses the editor...Thanks

Hmm,

I can copy and past the code from my browser no problem.

Are you really back rev'd on your browser version?

Have you tried highlighting and using ctrl-c to copy?

Thanks !!!

Alex, is it possible to rewrite the EFS so not "NaN" is shown when not viewing a tick-chart?

Are the counter counting tick in current bar or tick left in current bar?

Insert the following at the beginning of main()
if(isRawTick()!=true||isTick()==true)
return;

Thank you very much Alex. You're the best.

Is it possible to not show any name of the EFS in the left upper corner?

Thank you for the compliments.
As to hiding the study title go to Edit Studies and put a check in the Title Override box leaving however the Title box iself empty

Alex. would you please help me to rewrite this efs so I get an alert in a alert windows when X ticks remaining?

The attached revision of the efs now adds a user definable Trigger level (default is set to 20 ticks) below which an Alert list that includes the symbol and interval will be triggered. The efs also includes a provision for a sound alert. To enable it open the efs with the Editor and uncomment line 41.
Lastly when the count falls under the Trigger level the value in the Cursor Window and that plotted in the chart will be colored in red instead of the default blue.

Wow... just what I needed.
Is it possible to make the "fp1.setDefault(20);" to be X % of ticks per bar.

tickchart: 233T
using alarm at 5% of ticks per bar
= 233 * 0,05 = 11,65 rounded up to: 12 ---> Then fp1.setDefault(12)?

Then if I change to 89 tick per bar the alarm will be triggered at:
89 * 0,05 = 4,45 rounded up to 5.

And is it possible to have the alarm showed in a Alert Ticker Window? File-New-Ticker-Alert Ticker?
Then it will be possible to change background colour of alert window.

Did you understand my (very) bad english Alex?

And again, thanks a lot for helping us with efs!

In line 45 of the formula add the following

if(Trigger==0)
Trigger = Math.round(n*0.05);

Then when you want to use a percentage simply set 0 for the Trigger level using Edit Studies and it will calculate 5% of the interval.

Alex, could you add "minutes left per bar" to this efs, please?
