I am new to eSignal and having a problem with the attached EFS program I wrote. I have tried researching the problem and finding a solution in the online forums and knowledge base to no avail. I'm not sure what to try next so I'm posting the problem here.
I keep getting an error message in the formula output window that says "line 56: open() can only be called in main()". The weird thing is that if I shut down eSignal restart it and load this formula to a chart I do not get this error. But if I start changing the chart's time interval I sometimes get the error and then keep getting it until I close eSignal and restart it again.
For example if I:
Start eSignal and select symbol QQQQ and the 60 minute time interval Then I load formula test7.efs and I get the 3 moving average lines (no problem)
Then I changed the interval to 30 minutes. Again no problem.
Then I changed the interval on the chart to 5 minutes and I get that error "line 56: open() can only be called in main()"
If I try changing the interval back to 30 or 60 minutes I keep getting that error in the formula output window
Any ideas what is happening and what changes I need to make. Or any better suggestions for how to chart moving averages with different time time intervals on the same chart.
Thanks,
Pete
