Re: Reply to post 'New Scripts'

ooops, usually the extra window pops up on top of other apps, but it didn't
this time and I didn't see it, so you are right, and I am wrong.

New versions of the Windows and HTML help files have been uploaded. Includes a couple of minor fixes as well as a new function:

setShowTitleParameters( true/false );

This function allows you to control the display of parameter settings in the chart window.... very handy if you have scripts that have many parameters.

New version of MM script uploaded to File Share. Added setShowTitleParameters() code to suppress display of MM parameters in title.

(Note: Pivot Console and Variable Pivot scripts have been modified accordingly as well.)

For those that are interested in such things, I uploaded a script to the File Share that shows how you can call the Windows API (in this case, the ShellAPI) from within EFS.

New version of the SquareOf9 script uploaded to File Share. Added some rudimentary mouse control. You can now double-click on a price bar to set the anchor. Requires V7.5 of eSignal.

(Note: The PyraTool script has been modified in the same fashion.)

New version of Pivot Console has been uploaded to Specialty Scripts in File Share (PivotConsoleCama.efs). Based on a message on another board that (presumably) provides a formula that is a close approximation of the Camarilla Equation.

DDEOutput

I have looked at the example in the Help, but I am still not 100% clear if what I want is possible.

What is the syntax if I want to set the following?
I would like to return the output from a multi-variable (user-defined) '.efs' formula into excel
e.g. like MACD [signal, ema, histo], but I want the flexibility to define the following from Excel
1) Input variables - e.g. shortema, longema, smoothingperiod
2) Time Template - As I look at many markets, but these are all-defined/set-up in eSignal
3) Symbol - getSymbol()
4) Timeframe -

In short, I would like to look at many symbols e.g. 50 - 100, from a range of markets (TimeTemplates), with a variety of technical indicators (user defined) over differing (intraday) timeframes.

Is this currently possible, as now I do this manually for about 10 of them?

thx

Macavity:

If I understand your request correctly, you are looking for two-way communication between Excel and eSignal and, at this point, I don't believe that is possible via the DDE interface. eSignal scripts can pass data to Excel but Excel cannot pass data back to the script.

ATR

Here is a script idea for daily ATR calculation:

This script would read a txt file with symbols in it.
ex: 6E #F, 6B #F, ES #F associated with their margins or if not precised their CLOSE at the moment of the calculation (for stocks)

And calculate for each symbols the daily ATR. This daily ATR would then be written in a text file, and express it as a % of the margin from previous file. It would be nice to sort the results in order than the highest % is at the top of the file.

So far the standard ATR indicator can't go further than 2 decimals, for currencies we need up to 6 decimals (JPY needs 6, EUR needs 4).

This script would be used to compare markets and finds out which market is the most volatile, it could also be used to sort out what is the best stock to trade in an index (exemple: you could feed it with Nasdaq 100 list of stocks)
