Not sure we understand this. But it sounds like from what we understand you definitively cannot do that. You will have to create your own custom study.

how can I display only this point?
Add another Color Bar Based On Alert Condition study- Set 'Number of Bars to Calculate' to 10 - Use this formula on the Alerts tab: =ID2.SG1[9] - Hide your ID2 study. |

thank u for this :) it worked!! ... just for understanding: if i am using your solution i can need to use only (no need id2,id3) id1 : Color Bar Based On Alert Condition study - Set 'Number of Bars to Calculate' to 10 - Use this formula on the Alerts tab: =c[9] and it worked as well. *** i am using lots of color bar based on alert condition study, and i prefer no to use the "trick" by change "number of bars to calculate" . i want to use only formulas and simplify it (if it can): 1: do u have another solution only with formulas ( in the alert tab) to get what i need? *** there is way to use only 1 study1 study: Color Bar Based On Alert Condition study, by using the Alerts tab and get: 2.the first 10 points (as i display in pic "id2", (but not as i success by 2 studies).i want to simplify my future solutions) 3. only the first point of the 10 points (as my origin question) *** i bothersome u with those questions because in logic i cant understand why there is not a simple way by formulas. how can be simple formula as "=c[10]" which display me all the points beside the first 10 points, but there is not a formula to get the first 10 points, there is not a formula to get only one point in the position number 10 (as i need), there is not a formula to get two points in other position(in position number 10 and number 9) *** many thanks |

there is not a formula to get the first 10 points,
=C[10]=0 did work in the past, but SC changed something, so now you must use a second instance. See this:Hide currently forming candle there is not a formula to get only one point in the position number 10 (as i need),
You found a way by using:- Set 'Number of Bars to Calculate' to 10 - Use this formula on the Alerts tab: =c[9] there is not a formula to get two points in other position(in position number 10 and number 9)
Use my original solution in post #3 with this formula:=ID2.SG1[8] These are no other simpler ways to do what you want. |
