Hi SC Team, I have 2 questions. I developed a custom study which runs in a 1 minute chart. I want my study to read information out of a Daily TPO Profile chart. Ideally I would like to have this TPO profile in another chart window. The only function I found to read out information from a TPO chart is sc.GetStudyProfileInformation, but this function requests only the StudyID so I cannot specify a ChartNumber like in other SC functions. So, 1) How can I access this TPO information from another chart? 2) When back-testing, the TPO profile takes a lot of time to form, even though I have set it to a 1 Day time period. I am only interested in the daily information of the TPO profile from a previous day, eg. the VPOC price value of the last day. Is there a way my study can access this information without the TPO profile chart having to run through every single second or minute to build the profile? Like for example, I have a Daily chart and I get daily bar information out of it by using function sc.GetChartBaseData without having to replay this chart for my study. I went through the manual and through the support board to see if I could find my answers without any luck. Thanks! |

1. We need to add a function for this. We will do that. 2. You do not need to replay the chart. Once the chart is loaded and the studies are calculated, then you can access the profiles for any day using sc.GetStudyProfileInformation.

Hi, What is the ETA for the proposed function - ie sc.GetStudyProfileInformation with ChartID in the input? Regards Vivek |

Hi guys, Based on your response to my 2nd question I was able to program a work-around where I would save up all the information I needed in a .txt file and then I would read it out in my study which is set in another chart. So thank you! However, this is definitely not the most optimal solution. Like post #3, can you please share when could we count with this new function to be able to access TPO profile information from another chart? Thank you! |
