Programmatically Accessing TPO Count for Each Price Increment

View Count: 1111

Thank you for the documentation showing how to access Peaks and Valleys for TPO Profile and Volume by Price from a previous request. Continuing on that, is it possible to access the TPO Count for Each Price Increment (item "2" of the Reading TPO Charts graphic Time Price Opportunity (TPO) Profile Charts: How to Read TPO Profile Charts ) via ACSIL, please? Whatever method you decide to expose it would be fine, but I assume that it would probably be similar to iterating using sc.GetStudyPeakValleyLine() or s_VolumeAtPriceV2. I saw that this had been requested in a previous thread from 2016, but wasn't sure if any progress had been made. Thank you for your help.

This is actually currently supported through this function: sc.GetVolumeAtPriceDataForStudyProfile() Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.

Within this function I note: ProfileIndex: The zero-based index of the volume profile relative to the end of the chart. 0 equals the latest profile in the chart at the end or rightmost side. This needs to always be set to a positive number. Is there a relationship between ProfileIndex and sc.Index? If not, how can we ascertain the total number of profiles on a chart?

With sc.GetStudyProfileInformation() you can get the date time for a ProfileIndex. Date Time Of Last Edit: 2019-08-18 15:17:09

Yep - aware of that thank you. What about looping through every profile on the chart? How do we know where the index ends?

When the function doesn’t return a profile information. But why do you need the end? I only look at the last 20 profiles to have a better performance. sc.GetStudyProfileInformation() maybe returns a 0 at the end. Date Time Of Last Edit: 2019-08-18 15:31:58

sc.GetStudyProfileInformation() maybe returns a 0 at the end. Maybe?!? I would prefer not to guess looping up to a potentially large number and have a definitive way of knowing the count of profiles in the chart, just like we know the number of bars in the chart via sc.ArraySize.

There is no documentation so we have to try it out.

…or wait for our friends at SC Engineering to provide a definitive answer which is my preference.

Is there a relationship between ProfileIndex and sc.Index? If not, how can we ascertain the total number of profiles on a chart? No. We will add a function to get the number of profiles in a chart. However, if you start at 0 for the ProfileIndex parameter and keep incrementing and then stop when the function returns 0, then you will know when you get to the last profile.
