I got some questions...

[erilein]

Hello ...
my first question is:


I have got a Moving avarage with

Length: 15 and Offset: -6

is there a way to calculate the red line (i drew it in photoshop)
so that there are crossingpoints if i take 2 moving avarages with 2 different offsets ?

My second question is:
Is there a way to get 2 charts in one chartwindow ?
e.g. the $indu and the $daxi

thank you...
regards eric

I'll answer your second question first as it's much easier. In eSignal 7.5 Beta, you can overlay up to 4 symbols over the main symbol. Here's EBAY with AMZN overlayed.

The attached Formula Wizard code I believe will do what you are looking for as described in your screenshot. If you wish to add a second MA, then that can be done through the Formula Wizard as well. One main resource for you is the EFS Help Center & Library and in particular the Formula Wizard section.

Looking at your screenshot further... perhaps that red line is an extention of the offset MA. I tried to create some code for this, but there's certainly some bugs in it. Anyone care to take a shot?

@ jayf ...
yes i mean the extension of the ma not the crossingpoint like in your first post...

i will download the beta and test it... thank you
so long eric

i have downloaded the beta ... but i dont find the option to overlay symbols ... can you describe how to do that please

Just start typing in a new symbol in an AC window and you'll see a new button for multiple symbols. Can add up to four.

Thanks.

Put your cursor over the advanced chart and click on it. type in the first symbol. At the bottum of the screen pop-up you will see a button for adding additional symbols.

Click on multiple symbols...

When you create a new Advanced Chart no dialog box will show because the chart loads with all the defaults (including symbol).
Once the chart is open and selected beging typing a new symbol and as you do so a dialog box will appear which will look like the one in the image posted by FibbGann

Can you post an image of the dialog box you get when you type on a chart to change a symbol

[erilein]

there isnt any box ... nothing . i am wondering why i got this problem
maybe this feature isnt working with Windows XP ?!

Eric
Let me rephrase the question. How do you change symbol in an Advanced Chart?
Also what happens when you select an Advanced Chart and type a number on the keyboard to change interval?
FWIW the symbol overlay feature works with XP (both editions)

Try left clicking on the Advanced Chart, do you see any menus?

Good.

Now right click on the chart. Did the menu go away?

Good.

Now type

IBM, did a dialogue box come up?

Do you see the Multiple Symbol button on the dialogue box?
