Indicator with two indicator windows

Post by SpiderX »

Hi,

Have two questions here:
Is it possible to have an indicator with two indicator windows ?
i.e attaching the indicator opens two indicator windows below the main chart.

How can this be implemented ?

Cheers

I have not seen it done but you might want to explain what you are trying to do so ideas for work arounds could come out.

Why not load the indi twice? and then set the different parameters for each window

Hi,

Thanks for the reply.
I was hoping to a have an indicator which plots a histogram in the first indicator window, then another histogram based on data from the first in another indicator window below.
Some information might not be clear if we have two indicators on top of each other, so would be great it we could have a single indicator with two windows.

Cheers

I'm 99% certain Empty4 doesn't support 2 windows from one indictor.

Fred's suggestion is probably your best bet. Instead of one indicator that plots "result #1" and "result #2," run the indicator twice. The first instance displays "result #1" & the second displays "result #2." If the second instance does the same calculations as the first, it should result in the same values for "result #2" that a single instance would have calculated.
