ask size reflects the amount of asset unit available at given price

reading the belwo 2 definitions (of Seirra's documentation)

- sc.Ask is the current Ask value for the symbol if Bid and Ask data is available.
- sc.AskSize is the current size of the Ask when Bid and Ask data is available.

makes me say: sorry - poor explanation ... it is unclear what you mean
(1) what does the value indicate - the ask size for the candle ?
(2) what is teh difference between sc.Ask and sc.AskSize
(3) question refers teh sc.Bid and sc.BidSize as well

pls explain ... tnx

what is sc.BaseDateTimeIn[] ?

documentation definition is unclear
> sc.BaseDateTimeIn[] is an array of the Date-Time for each bar in the chart. Each element is a SCDateTime. The word In at the end of this array means input,
> which signifies that this array is input data for your study.

does it represent the time at which a bar was created ?

We have updated the documentation for these ACSIL members as best as we can. Go back to this page and reload it:
ACSIL Interface Members - Variables and Arrays

These questions are really best left to your own research through other websites. These are very basic quote values for a symbol. You should understand them without any further explanation.


does it represent the time at which a bar was created ?
Yes, it is the starting time of the bar.

i find this comment inappropriate

as a senior software designer/developer i say that sofrware should always come w/ precise and professional documentation

in case you have mistakes - it doesn't mean necessarily that i didn't understand ... but may be the text is not prcise

you can thhank me rather than lecturing me what i should do

the reason for docuemntation existance is to avoid the waste of time looking for the "right"
this is exactly why DOCUMNETATION EXISTS

tnx for your attention. pls avoid further comments of this type when i will alert documentation inaccuracy

We cannot avoid these comments.

Our answer remains the same and that is the most appropriate answer. We believe in complete and accurate documentation and that is already the case here.
