I am wondering if there is a way in which I can analyze the complete data to find the best chart settings according to my methodology. Some settings have to be fixed such as date, time, and rollover, but my only variable is the number of trades. I need the ability to scan the variable with multiple settings, simultaneously and with as few opened windows as possible. Is this possible with SC? I have looked at the spreadsheet study, but it is chart dependent and settings are fixed with no chance to check multiple settings. I have also thought about the ACSIL, but am trying to understand how the rollover setting could be fixed. Would appreciate your comments. thank u

just in case, I would like to ask three questions before I get too far into this great endeavor. Is it possible with sc to do the following in a single custom study: --test a variable with multiple inputs simultaneously I would also like to know, if the above is possible, then how much it might cost and how long it might take for sc to create the custom study? thx as always for the professional assistance.

SC, I received no reply as of yet, but I understand your limited resources. If you have suggestions I would appreciate your input regarding the following strategies to test a variable simultaneously multiple times: 1. create small code files and have them funneled into a main file 2. use a certain data container with certain loop function As stated before as well, if you had time how long it might take to complete such a code. I think the cost/hr is 50,00 usd thx as always Date Time Of Last Edit: 2016-10-05 09:38:21

I would also like to know, if I need to place the following into the header or if they are included in #include "sierrachart.h" #include <array> #include <algorithm> #include <iostream> |

In response to post #5, if you require those, you do need to add them before the #include "sierrachart.h" line.

Yes this is possible.

if I incorporate sc.RenkoTicksPerBar into a custom study and use a different setting in a calculation other than what is at the moment displayed on the chart, should I understand the calculation can only happen after the study has been applied with the new setting?

This is documented here: ACSIL Interface Members - Variables and Arrays: sc.RenkoTicksPerBar Changes to that variable do not go into effect until after the study function returns.

is it possible to float the Range Bar Value before the chart updates in order to make calculations? I am only asking if it is possible and if I am blessed you might have a suggestion?

I would also like to ask if it is possible to create code which would change the chart settings after double clicking on a line within the alert manager window

to float the Range Bar Value We do not understand this.

reply to #12: sc.RangeBarValue updates the chart before I can perform any tests and I want to keep the chart from constantly updating while trying to check simultaneously various range bar settings for a specific pattern. I am also pondering the idea if I might have to somehow use BaseDataIn in some context. I appreciate any and all help. PS my worst nightmare is if I have to build the range bars from scratch so-to-say. PPS I would be blessed just to know if it is possible Date Time Of Last Edit: 2016-10-13 00:51:24

Not sure we understand this. So you are changing the value of sc.RangeBarValue? Once you change it, then the chart will reload and use the new setting and then it will remain at that setting.

yes, because I am trying to test for a specific pattern in various range bar settings yes, but I want to keep the chart from reloading. I want to test without the chart constantly reloading due to the various range bar settings being tested. |

There is no way to prevent the reloading.

thx and if I may, then I would like to ask the ultimate question: According to your understanding of how the software in conjunction with C++ works, is it possible at all to test simultaneously multiple range bar chart settings for a specific pattern? PS would be great if I could an answer as well for posting #11 Date Time Of Last Edit: 2016-10-13 14:26:29

The answer to post #11 is no. The answer to post #17 is that you would need a separate chart for each pattern you want to test. But are you referring to performing a back test? If so, then you really want to do this in different instances of Sierra Chart. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support. Other responses are from users.

The answer to post #17 I think even one instance for a hundred charts for one symbol and in backtesting mode would be too little. I am also looking at the possibility to take the BaseDataIn array for high and low of a chart with the lowest increment which would be 0.1 or range 1 in the case of Gold for example, set my desired range and somehow process the data into new range bars with some kind of looping. I guess it would be like building the range bars in the same way the chart builds them. Does my understanding seem possible? thx for everything! PS I am having trouble with a floating point type after compiling: RangeValue.Name = "Range Bar Value"; RangeValue.SetFloat(1.0f); RangeValue.SetFloatLimits(0.0f, MAX_STUDY_LENGTH); sc.RangeBarValue = RangeValue.GetFloat(); warning C4244: 'argument': conversion from 'const int' to 'float', possible loss of data Date Time Of Last Edit: 2016-10-13 17:43:59

That would seem possible but we do not provide programming help. The warning you can just ignore. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.

sc.GetHighest() //Get the highest high from the base graph over the last 20 bars float Highest = sc.GetHighest(sc.BaseDataIn[SC_HIGH], 20); Q: does this get the last 20 "completed" bars or does it take the bar in progress also into consideration? |

I am trying to understand why a simple custom study with a simple calculation and comparison sometimes works and fails. Attached is a screenshot showing green lines where it worked meaning the alert log(attached) registered correctly and red lines where it failed meaning the alert log failed to register the comparison. Attached is also the custom study code. In addition, the custom study also acted strangely in that it changed from a range bar chart to a time bar chart. http://www.sierrachart.com/image.php?Image=1476662385776.png |

This is completely outside the scope of our support. You will need to consult with an outside programmer: https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/SierraChartStudyAndSystemProgrammers.php And please do not tell us, that this is a question we have to answer. It simply is not. If we could find a programmer for you for 35USD/hour would you be interested? Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.
