New Scripts

[ckryza]

Ran into some unexpected problems with the script this morning so I made some additional changes and uploaded a new version (V 1.5.0) to the File Share area.

atrPeriod has been added as an Edit Studies option; the Variable Pivot calculation has been tweaked again and it now seems to be operating correctly and consistently (e.g., pulls the values from the last completed bar of the interval you selected); added a text display at bottom-left of chart showing the currently-selected variable pivot interval.

Again, please review the documentation at the top of the script.

Chris,

What I noticed so far (can you confirm?) is that in order for V to refresh every x mn you need to desactivate it and reactivate it so that it displays the proper values... At least that is how it worked today for me with 60mn on ES#F : no automatic refresh every 60mn of the calculations... I think it would be good to have it automatically refresh itself every x mn, no ?

Thanks for all the good job, it really helps!

Matt:

I'm not sure what's going on with the Variable Pivot update. I ran it off and on during the day today and I also had to do a manual refresh to update the Variable Pivot calc on one or two occasions. Towards the end of the day, though, I set up debug print commands in the update code and let it run for quite some time....and of course it worked perfectly.

I will work on it tonight and put a new version up in the morning.

Pivot Console is improving day by day dramatically. Only one problem : sometimes over the 60mn Tf do not plot the lines. Any specific reason?

Tks

Fabrizio:

Are you talking about the Variable Pivot option? There does seem to be an issue with the variable pivots updating correctly during the day and I am looking into it.

Uploaded Version 1.6.0 of Pivot Console script to File Share area. ForceRTH has been added as an option so you can turn it on/off based upon your particular needs. Set color variables at the top of the script that you can modifiy if you want different colors for the various groups of pivots. Variable Pivot calc and update code is working correctly as far as I can tell.

Please review documentation at the top of the script.

Pivot Console problem

Hi Chris,

Really appreciate what you're doing with the Pivot Console. However., I just installed today's version and got a syntax error: "Downloads\PivotConsole.efs, line 640: ReferenceError: repaintChart is not defined".

I downloaded again and still got the error. At one point my cursor hooked up to the chart and proceeded to drag the whole chart around the window!??

Any idea what's happening here? All previous versions I tried worked great.

Regards,
Bob A.

Hi Bob:

Yes, I added the "repaintChart()" function call in the last pass in an attempt to debug the Variable Pivot issue. You have two choices.... you can upgrade your version of eSignal to the latest Beta (which I know will work with the script) or you can simply load the script into your editor, scroll down to line 640 (e.g., the line with repaintChart() on it) and then REM out the function call. To REM it out, simply put two slashes in front of it so that when you are done, line 640 looks like:

//repaintChart();

Then save the file, load it into a chart and you should be all set.

New MM version uploaded. Added vertical line color option and added AutoFrame status display so that it is a little easier to tell when that option has been turned on.

Volume Profile enhancement request

Chris,

I do have an idea for enhancing volume profile (both versions but I mainly use the non realtime).

One of the problem with current volume profile is that you must constantly change the frPriceIncrement when you switch from ES to NQ to GB for example.

Why not check the current symbol and implement the following :
if symbol==ES then frpriceincrement=0.25
if symbol==NQ or AX M3-DT or MT K3-MA then frpriceincrement=0.5
if symbol==YM or SM M3-DT then frpriceincrement=1
if symbol==GB M3-DT then frpriceincrement=0.01
default 0.01 (for stocks)

Pivot console enhancement request

Use of Global variables ?

If you are on a chart with pivot console displaying V and not D pivots and you decide to change the timeframe, it will display D as a default and you will have to unselect D and reselect V.

Can't it be solved by the use of global variables?
Would be a nice fix.

[ckryza]

Matt:

Both good ideas. I will see what I can come up with.

Pivot Console default ATR

And another thing about Pivot console, ATR of 14 days is ATR of 2 weeks + 4 days (maybe you wanted to analyse ATR10 for 2 weeks?)

Why not put the ATR 20 instead (True Range of the previous month) as a default ? or ATR 40 or ATR 60

New EFS request : automatic trendline

Chris,

It may be tough to program it but I would be great to have a basis of automatic trendline EFS. Even better as an option would be to draw the parallel to this automatic trendline to draw automatic channels.

I do have a program in Tradestation that draws automatic trendline, ask me if you want to see the code (but TS is full of Trendline friendly functions, and not eSignal).
