200MA in the cursor window

[ketoma21]

Using the 200 Moving Average sometime shrink the charts depending how far the 200MA is located, Also trying to minimize the number of lines running horizontally. With this code it display the last 5 places where the 200MA is and it will not shrink the chart. I also like to use auto scaling.

The problem is since I'm not returning any value nothing is displayed in the cursor window or in the right hand side of the chart. is there any way that can be done?

var vMA1 = null;
var BarCntr = 0;

function preMain() {

setPriceStudy(true);
setStudyTitle("200MA");
setCursorLabelName("200MA", 0);
setDefaultBarStyle(PS_SOLID, 0);
setDefaultBarThickness(2, 0);
setPlotType(PLOTTYPE_LINE, 0);


var fp1 = new FunctionParameter("MA1Length", FunctionParameter.NUMBER);
fp1.setLowerLimit(1);
fp1.setDefault(200); //Edit this value to set a new default

var fp2 = new FunctionParameter("MA1Offset", FunctionParameter.NUMBER);
fp2.setDefault(0); //Edit this value to set a new default

var fp3 = new FunctionParameter("MA1Source", FunctionParameter.STRING);
fp3.setName("MA1Source");
fp3.addOption("Close");
fp3.addOption("High");
fp3.addOption("Low");
fp3.addOption("Open");
fp3.addOption("HL/2");
fp3.addOption("HLC/3");
fp3.addOption("OHLC/4");
fp3.setDefault("Close"); //Edit this value to set a new default

var fp4 = new FunctionParameter("MA1Type", FunctionParameter.STRING);
fp4.setName("MA1Type");
fp4.addOption("MAStudy.SIMPLE");
fp4.addOption("MAStudy.EXPONENTIAL");
fp4.addOption("MAStudy.WEIGHTED");
fp4.addOption("MAStudy.VOLUMEWEIGHTED");
fp4.setDefault("MAStudy.SIMPLE"); //Edit this value to set a new default

}

function main(MA1Length,MA1Offset,MA1Source,MA1Type) {

if (getBarState() == BARSTATE_NEWBAR) {
BarCntr += 1;
}

if (vMA1 == null) vMA1 = new MAStudy(MA1Length, MA1Offset, MA1Source, eval(MA1Type));

if (BarCntr > MA1Length) {
drawLineRelative(-1, vMA1.getValue(MAStudy.MA,-1), 0, vMA1.getValue(MAStudy.MA,0), PS_SOLID, 3, Color.grey, 0 );
drawLineRelative(-2, vMA1.getValue(MAStudy.MA,-2), -1, vMA1.getValue(MAStudy.MA,-1), PS_SOLID, 3, Color.grey, 1 );
drawLineRelative(-3, vMA1.getValue(MAStudy.MA,-3), -2, vMA1.getValue(MAStudy.MA,-2), PS_SOLID, 3, Color.grey, 2 );
drawLineRelative(-4, vMA1.getValue(MAStudy.MA,-4), -3, vMA1.getValue(MAStudy.MA,-3), PS_SOLID, 3, Color.grey, 3 );
drawLineRelative(-5, vMA1.getValue(MAStudy.MA,-5), -4, vMA1.getValue(MAStudy.MA,-4), PS_SOLID, 3, Color.grey, 4 );
}
}




Thank you

The attached revision of your efs adds the return to the Cursor Window and also writes the value on the chart. It is not possible though to write the value in the price axis
Hope this helps

Thank you Very Alexis

this is what I'm looking for

You are most welcome.
You may also want to try to plot the average and switch on both Auto Scale and Scale Price Data Only (which is the icon next to it). This will prevent the chart from shrinking (see sample screenshots below)

Thank you very much again Alexis

But I've tried that before the problem is I use bollinger band and with both "Auto Scale and Scale Price Data Only" turned on I can't see the top or the bottom of the bollinger band

Thank you
