I am looking for an indicator coded in TS that will allow me to click on a price bar and the high of the bar plus 1 tick will print above that bar and the low minus 1 tick will print below that bar. Does anyone know of anything like this?

I have an indicator that works fine on minute charts but will not work on second charts. I have the code below. Is there some way that I can get it to work on second charts? inputs: DateOfLine(currentdate), DistFromSwing_Ticks(15), StartBarCount_Time(836), ExtendLines_Right(false), Line1_Color(blue), Line1_StartBarCount(4), Line1_EndBarCount(13), Line2_Display(true), Line2_StartBarCount(8), Line2_EndBarCount(19), Line3_Display(true), Line3_StartBarCount(15), Line3_EndBarCount(25); vars: X(0), ColorCount(0), PriDisplayValue(0), EndCount(0), TickValue(minmove/pricescale); arrays: LineSwitch[3](false), TLID_Main[3](-1), StartBarCount[3](0), EndBarCount[3](0), LineHigh[3](0), LineLow[3](999999); once begin LineSwitch[1] = true; StartBarCount[1] = calctime(StartBarCount_Time, Line1_StartBarCount * barinterval); EndBarCount[1] = calctime(StartBarCount_Time, Line1_EndBarCount * barinterval); LineSwitch[2] = Line2_Display; StartBarCount[2] = calctime(StartBarCount_Time, Line2_StartBarCount * barinterval); EndBarCount[2] = calctime(StartBarCount_Time, Line2_EndBarCount * barinterval); LineSwitch[3] = Line3_Display; StartBarCount[3] = calctime(StartBarCount_Time, Line3_StartBarCount * barinterval); EndBarCount[3] = calctime(StartBarCount_Time, Line3_EndBarCount * barinterval); if Line1_Color = red then ColorCount = 1 else ColorCount = 0; for X = 1 to 3 begin if ColorCount > 1 then ColorCount = 0; PriDisplayValue = pz_iff(ColorCount = 0, getappinfo(aiLowestDispValue), getappinfo(aiHighestDispValue)); TLID_Main[X] = tl_new(currentdate, StartBarCount[X], PriDisplayValue, currentdate, EndBarCount[X], PriDisplayValue); tl_setcolor(TLID_Main[X], pz_iff(ColorCount = 0, blue, red)); tl_setextright(TLID_Main[X], ExtendLines_Right); ColorCount += 1; end; end; if d = DateOfLine then begin for X = 1 to 2 begin if t >= StartBarCount[X - 1] then EndCount = X + 1; end; for X = 1 to EndCount begin if t >= StartBarCount[X] {and t <= EndBarCount[X]} then begin if h > LineHigh[X] then LineHigh[X] = h; if l < LineLow[X] then LineLow[X] = l; end; if LineSwitch[X] then begin if tl_getcolor(TLID_Main[X]) = blue then begin tl_setend(TLID_Main[X], d, EndBarCount[X], LineLow[X] - DistFromSwing_Ticks * TickValue); tl_setbegin(TLID_Main[X], d, StartBarCount[X], LineLow[X] - DistFromSwing_Ticks * TickValue); end else begin tl_setend(TLID_Main[X], d, EndBarCount[X], LineHigh[X] + DistFromSwing_Ticks * TickValue); tl_setbegin(TLID_Main[X], d, StartBarCount[X], LineHigh[X] + DistFromSwing_Ticks * TickValue); end; end; end; end;

What would the code look like for ELD if I wanted to say "at least 1 tick higher than" Thanks Pi

Thanks for the reply Easytrader. Much appreciated Pi

I am hoping that someone can help me with some coding. What I need is a rather simple paint bar study that will paint a bar yellow if it's range is = > the sum of the ranges of the 2 bars that preceded it. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Pi

I don't know if this has already been asked in this forum but I will give it a shot. Does anybody know of an indicator that can calculate at what tic a bar will turn a MA. eg if the market has been falling and the MA has been going down how many up tics will it take for the MA to turn up? And have this price market by a dot. If this has already been addressed then can someone direct me to the thread. Thanx Barry

How would I go about having a MA value 1 bar ago displayed in the price pane. The current value is easy but I can’t figure out how to display the value 1 bar ago. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Pi

Does anybody know where I can get a countdown timer for TS that will work on second bars to tell me when the bar will close? This would be a real handy tool to have. Thanks Pi

In TS ver 9.1 there is a new feature that allows you to set the transparency of a line or tool to a user defined %. Is there some way that the transparency % can be coded into the indicator so I am not constantly doing it manually? Thanks Pi

How would I go about hiding the inputs in the code below. I know that you have to turn them into variables and the variables into vars but I keep screwing up. inputs: Extension1_Percent(200), Extension2_Percent(250), ExtensionColor(Getbackgroundcolor), ExtensionColorMove(darkblue), ShowAverages(true), LineLength_Bars(4), SlowAvgPrice(close), SlowAvgLength(10), SlowAvgDisplace(3), FastAvgPrice(close), FastAvgLength(5); variables: Debug(false), BarsBack_Pt1(4), StartSwitch(false), SecondSwitch(false), ThirdSwitch(false), OriginalHigh(0), Counter(0), Projection1(0), Projection2(0), SlowAverage(0), FastAverage(0), TLForeCast(0), HighBar(99999999), TL(-1); Thanks Pi

What is the code for line thickness. I know that in order to make a tl dotted it would be TL_SetStyle(TL, tool_dotted); but I would like to make the thickness double what it is instead of dotted. Thanks Pi

I have some code below which utilizes a displaced slowMA. How would I replace this displaced slowMA with a displaced low band of a keltner channel? This one is taxing my brain!! Thanks Pi inputs: Extension1_Percent(200), Extension2_Percent(250), ExtensionColor(red), ExtensionColorMove(darkred), ShowExtensionHistory(true), LineLength_Bars(4), SlowAvgPrice(close), SlowAvgLength(10), SlowAvgDisplace(3), FastAvgPrice(close), FastAvgLength(5); variables: Debug(false), StartSwitch(false), SecondSwitch(false), ThirdSwitch(false), OriginalLow(0), Counter(0), Projection1(0), Projection2(0), SlowAverage(0), FastAverage(0), TLForeCast(0), LowBar(99999999), TL(-1); //================================== // Calcluation Module //================================== Once TL = TL_New(Date,Time,0,Date,Time,0); //Initialized TrendLine SlowAverage = WAverage(SlowAvgPrice, SlowAvgLength); FastAverage = WAverage(FastAvgPrice, FastAvgLength); Counter += 1; if date <> date[1] then begin //reset conditions on start of day StartSwitch = false; SecondSwitch = false; ThirdSwitch = false; end; if SlowAvgDisplace >= 0 or CurrentBar > AbsValue(SlowAvgDisplace) then begin
