One day only, inverse symbols

[shaeffer]

Hello,

I am trying to view SPY overlayed with an inverse plot of UUP, on a One-Day-Only (ODO) time template.

But using 'UUP * (-1)' directly or as a Spread Symbol seems to be ignored by my ODO time template - multiple days plot. So I tried the attached efs which will display ODO of UUP data only when I use a multiple day time template, (but then I see multiple days of SPY data). If I use this efs with the ODO time template, I get one day of SPY data, and see no UUP plot.

Can this efs be modified to plot inverse UUP when a ODO time template is being used?

Thanks

The reason the efs will not plot anything when the chart has only one day of data is because the condition getDay(0) != getDay(-1) never evaluates to true as there is no bar with a previous date hence the variable bCurrentDay never gets set to true
In this case simply remove all the code used to plot the returned values on the current day only
Also unless you need to return a moving average you can just use the close() series of the external symbol rather than the sma() series of the external symbol
