Overlaying symbols

[akiri]

Is there a way to overlay another symbol in the same chart either same window or another subwindow.

I wanted to overlay the $tick on to ES.

And if we can overlay in the same window can it be done on independant axis?

Akiri,

I'm not sure if this is what you are after but awhile back I put in a request to the powers that be at esignal and they were kind enough to write an efs for me that displays the $tick, $add, and $addq.

If it's not what you are after perhaps you can modify parts of it.

function preMain()
{
setStudyTitle("ADVDEC");
setCursorLabelName("ADNY", 0);
setDefaultBarFgColor(Color.red,0);
setCursorLabelName("ADNAZ", 1);
setDefaultBarFgColor(Color.blue,1);
setCursorLabelName("Tick", 2);
setDefaultBarFgColor(Color.green,2);
setCursorLabelName("ZERO", 3);
setDefaultBarFgColor(Color.white,3);
setCursorLabelName(" ", 4);
setDefaultBarFgColor(Color.purple,4);
setCursorLabelName(" ", 5);
setDefaultBarFgColor(Color.purple,5);
setPlotType(PLOTTYPE_LINE);

}
function main()
{
var vA;
var vD;
var vT;
var vZ;
var vU;
var vL;


vA = getValue("Close",0,1,"$ADD");
vD = getValue("Close",0,1,"$ADDQ");
vT = getValue("Close",0,1,"$tick");
vZ = 0;
vU = 600;
vL = -600;

return new Array(vA[0], vD[0], vT[0],vZ, vU, vL);
}

Thank you, this helped.

Hello Kiri,

We now have a new group in File Share where we are building a library of EFS formulas. There are three different types of symbol overlay formulas you can experiment with.

The "SymbolCompareAsNPS.efs" is probably the one you would be most interested in for comparing ES to $Tick.
