Hi. I resolved part of the problem but apparently, created another :( I wrote this study that plots the last session volume correctly: var: counter(0); if LastCalcDate > date then counter = cum(volume); plot1(cum(volume)-counter); Then decided to specify a time period and here is where...

Hi. There's only one EOD data provider. Check PremiumData You won't find a service that beats this one. Try their free trial (full service) and see how good they are. Regards, ptcman

Thank you StratOpt. Part of the problem has been solved. Regards, ptcman

Hi. I'm having problems reading intraday volume. First, I tried this formula: if time > 1430 and time < 2100 then plot1(cum(volume)); It cumulates the volume of each time period, but from the begining of the chart until today. The reading don't reset at the end of the time period. How to...

Hi. Hope all had a great Christmas day. How can I call yesterday's Close, High or even the RSI on an intraday chart? regards, ptcman

Hi. How can we especify a time range in EL using as the start point the previous day? Let me explain, ES starts trading at 4:30 pm ET until 4:15 ET the next day. How can I write this in EL? How can I "call" for a especific hour from yesterday until today's? For EL, the trading starts at...

I want to thank you both for your pacience. I'm plotting each variable and see them in realtime so I can discover where is the error. Like BPV said, problems like these always have a good side, we learn to better understand how easy language works although the bad side is that it's to much...

Hi. I appreciate all the help that you are giving me but I'm starting to go crazy here. I simply cannot open the study, plotted in the #11 post of this thread, on a intraday chart because I'm always receiving a floating point error. The only way for that error dissapear is to use BPV option...

Hi Charlton. I've tested BarStatus() but I'm having difficulty in understanding the concept. plot1(barstatus); As far as I could see, when a new bar iniciates (open price) the barstatus() plots 2 and after that plots 1 until the end of the, in this case, 5 min bar althouht this is a bit...

I tried to plot the study on a real time chart but I always received a floating point error, closing the window automaticaly. So I could only see it on daily charts. There is nothing better than to test an indicator on a real time chart to see what exactly is going on. The prints that you...

First of all, let me thank you for your replys. They're great for brainstorming, especially for people like me, iniciating on EL. I made a little modification in the { *Daily Range* } and in the { *Variable declaration* } section. { *Variables*} vars : cls(0), dRng(0); vars : inRng(true)...

OK. Here is a similar formula that produces the same error. I've made two versions of the "bulRng" variable to see if there was a problem with the first one but the result is the same. Notice how there are a couple of bars where the result is negative. { *Variables*} vars : cls(0), dRng(0)...

Imagine this: (1-value1=30/value2=62)*100 Let me add that, value2 is always higher than value1 This formula will produce in some bars, negative results. How is that possible? I assume that it is because of that division by zero error.

Hi. Charlton, I didn't understand you formula. Value1 and value2, by themselves, never plot zero as a result. The above formula, some how, produce negative results in some bars presumably because of that division by zero error. I don't know if any of you is familiarized with Metastock...

Hi. I'm receiving a floating point (division by zero error) in the following formula: (1-value1/value2)*100 How can I remove the error? Is there another way to write the above formula? regards ptcman
