can't be a long signal as RSI is on top not on bottom. Is this a question to the chart or did the dashboard gave you a buy signal? which ine? Maybe an AOT?

Dashboard 1.07 available in post 1

It is close to what I wanted to have:
  • A dashboard that shows me all symbols and its signals
  • It color highlights symbols with valid signals
  • Checkboxes to select signals to be used
  • A button next to each symbol. Click on it and the related chart will be loaded, including switching to timeframe H4 and loading a template (yes, that's so f*ing cool, I love it 8-) )
  • Symbols with any kind of order is existing marked in blue color to avoid checking it again
Note: The used template is always the first found. Rename your template of choice that it shows up on the first position when you do a load template. Usually # template....tpl works well.

The code is meanwhile complete crap, mainly because I re-used the 3rd-party button libraries and the ugly, ugly, ugly way how to control Empty4 windows handling. Empty4 ist just... crap. :cry:

Very cool, Candletiger. Very cool! :D

I like the chart buttons, they work great. Now I may not have to keep a zillion charts open.

Thanks for sharing.

have no XP to test this, on my 3 Win7 systems it works.
- have you the charts already open?
- can you close the market watch window and try again?
- please attach log file after you hit the button

I want to make a mod in the code and need a little guidance from you.
Say I want to check for a criteria of the AO colour, Green = Sell and Red = Buy. I believe I ought to put the code in the "checkSignal" block, or is it to go in the "DisplayRowInfo" block?
I reworked this a bit in 1.07. The "checkSignal" block I only used for coloring the text (valid/invalid signal). "DisplayRowInfo" is used the generate the potential statement (BUY-A0-R-S etc).
The whole stuff came from MrLong, no idea why this split.
McNish wrote: Also please can you describe what the actual code would be for checking the current colour value and the last bar's colour value for the AO.
Thanks.
this is the code you are loking for, this way I calculate the AO trend change

Code: Select all

   if(iCustom(pairName, PERIOD_H4,"Awesome",0,1,0) == 0) //red
   {
      if(iCustom(pairName, PERIOD_H4,"Awesome",0,2,1) == 0) ATSell = true;
   }
   if(iCustom(pairName, PERIOD_H4,"Awesome",0,2,0) == 0) //green
   {
      if(iCustom(pairName, PERIOD_H4,"Awesome",0,1,1) == 0) ATBuy = true;
   }
