  • Variables plot on chart but not on WatchList

    It appears as though the watch list doesn't like the fact I'm looking a price study and also calling an indicator (Acc/Dist) in the script.
    Everything looks fine on a chart but the WatchList columns just have a little green square - no data.
    I'm using the Acc/Dist to confirm the direction change (the intermediate steps aren't shown) and change the nBarCnt accordingly.
    The purpose is to use the nBarCnt value in a WatchList to see what symbols had triggered a direction change.

    PHP Code:
    debugClear();
    var 
    fpArray = new Array();

    function 
    preMain() {

        
    setPriceStudy(true);
        
    setStudyTitle("test");
        
    setCursorLabelName("HiAvg",0);
        
    setDefaultBarFgColor(Color.blue,0);
        
    setPlotType(PLOTTYPE_LINE,0);
        
    setDefaultBarThickness(1,0);
        
    setCursorLabelName("LoAvg",1);
        
    setDefaultBarFgColor(Color.red,1);
        
    setPlotType(PLOTTYPE_LINE,1);
        
    setDefaultBarThickness(1,1);
        
    setCursorLabelName("TradeBars"2);
        
    setShowSeries(false2);
        
    setDefaultBarFgColor(Color.khaki2);

        var 
    x=0;
        
    fpArray[x] = new FunctionParameter("LLen"FunctionParameter.NUMBER);
        
    with(fpArray[x++]) {
            
    setLowerLimit(1);
            
    setDefault(8);
        }
        
    fpArray[x] = new FunctionParameter("HLen"FunctionParameter.NUMBER);
        
    with(fpArray[x++]) {
            
    setLowerLimit(1);
            
    setDefault(10);
        }
        
    fpArray[x] = new FunctionParameter("Params"FunctionParameter.BOOLEAN);
        
    with(fpArray[x++]) {
            
    setName("Show Parameters");
            
    setDefault(false);
        }

    }
    var 
    grID 0;
    var 
    bInit false;

    var

    var 
    nBarCnt 0;

    function 
    main(LLenHLenParams) {

        if(
    bInit == false){
            
    xMAlo sma(LLenlow());
            
    xMAhi sma(HLenhigh());
            
    setShowTitleParameters(eval(Params));
      
    xAD accDist();
      
    xMA sma(57,xAD);
            
    bInit true;
        }

     
    // get the current Acc/Dist and direction
        
    nAD xAD.getValue(0);
        
    nMA xMA.getValue(0);
        if (

     if (
    nL == null || nH == null) return;

    /*

    do some stuff

    */

     
    if (close() > nH) {
      (
    nBarCnt <=0) ? nBarCnt nBarCnt++;
     } else if (
    close() < nL) {
      (
    nBarCnt >0) ? nBarCnt = -nBarCnt--;
     } else {
      
    nBarCnt 0;
     }


        return new Array(
    nHnLnBarCnt);
