Re: [amibroker] 6.13 Beta Release Feature: Charting: new feature - Snap to Tick grid. Snap drawing tool end points to TickSize-spaced grid (if TickSize > 0 for given symbol)

Coolman 06.37

Hello,

Thank you very much for your e-mail.

It uses Tick Size as defined in the Symbol Information window.
This Tick size is property of symbol.

So you need to go to Symbol Information window and enter
desired TickSize there.

Grid can not change on bar-by-bar basis.

TickSize variable defined in the formula is a local copy in the current execution of the formula.
Changes done to variable(s) in one formula apply to that execution only and do not propagate to other formulas
and do not propagate to Symbol Information window.

Best regards,

Thanks Thomasz;

Still can't get it to work.

I am wanting to set the tick size based on the Price, rather than enter it for each symbol, and so are using TickSize.

_SECTION_BEGIN("Price");

Indicative_Price = LastValue( ValueWhen( ExRem( Close, 0 ), Close ) );

printf("Indicative_Price %f", Indicative_Price);

SetChartOptions(0,chartShowDates);

ChartNumber = GetChartID();

Support = Study("SU", ChartNumber );

if (Indicative_Price > 5)

{

TickSize = 0.25;

}

else

{

TickSize = 0.1;

}

printf("Tick_Size %f", TickSize);

SetChartOptions(0,chartShowArrows|chartShowDates);

_N(Title = StrFormat("{{NAME}} - {{INTERVAL}} {{DATE}} Open %g, Hi %g, Lo %g, Close %g (%.1f%%) {{VALUES}}", O, H, L, C, SelectedValue( ROC( C, 1 ) ) ));

Plot( C, "Close", ParamColor("Color", colorDefault ), styleNoTitle | ParamStyle("Style") | GetPriceStyle() );

_SECTION_END();

Regards

Hello,

Thank you very much for your e-mail.

1. Go to Symbol Information, enter 0.01 in "Tick size" field
2. Select "Snap to Tick grid" from "Format" menu.
3. Draw a trendline - you will notice that start and endpoints of the trendline change with 0.01 increments

For greater effect you can enter 1 in "tick size".

Best regards,

HI, I am working through the 6.13 features.

I am having difficulty with getting this to work as I expected.

I am wondering what settings I need to make.

Could someone please provide a worked example?
