ohlc on formula

[gareth_leachman]

I am trying to create a OHLC on a spread.

So I want to know the starting close price of an interval. lowest close price of and interval, highest close price of an interval and last close price of an interval.

I should be able to do this in a study.

How do I maintain only the current time periods ohlc and generate a graph of historic and current ohlc bar chart. (Does that make sense?)

Thanks

Hello gareth_leachman,

What is the spread you are looking at? Tell us how you are creating your spread.

I am using

AX h3-dt - 1.2 et h3-dt

as the spread.

Thanks

Hello gareth_leachman,

I've created a formula called drawOHLC.efs that will draw the OHLC info. It will draw in real time and as new time intervals start. The formula will maintain a default of 60 bars of OHLC info going forward. You can increase that number and the thickness for the bars through the "Edit Studies" option. Keep in mind, that when the formula is first applied to your chart, we can't draw the historical OHLC info for a spread because we can't synchronize the tick-by-tick data of the two symbols.
