eSignal's EFS2 and TS's EasyLanguage

[mmillar]

Quote from richardyu301:

eSignal can allow plotting indicators of different timeframes on the same chart.

Yes, TS does the same.

Quote from mmillar:

But you can also plot two timeframes in the same graph. This is 5 min bars on 15 min candlesticks.

Thanks, this what i meant, how you do it?

another question, let's say you don't have
other timeframes opened in subgraph of
single window(I think then you can't write
qualifiers "of data x") how you can plot MAs
for other TFs in same window?

I have no experiance in globalvariables, but
can you do this in EL or direct from symbole
format window?

 

[mmillar]

Natively in EL, you can't apply indicators from different timescales without having a second symbol at that timeframe applied to the chart (DATA2).

You can bring in any information you want from any timeframe with either GlobalVariables (GV) or Collections for EasyLanguage (ELC).

mmiller, Thanks for info

Can someone tell me how to color-code inputs
and user-defined variables in power editor?

This makes EL coding further easier for reading,
I know this can't be altered in color preferances

Is this what you mean?

Depending on conditions one line can have various colors? In this example 4 different ones.

the code:

Input: Price(Close), Length1(9), Length2(18), Displace(0);

If Displace >= 0 OR CurrentBar > AbsValue(Displace) Then Begin
Plot1[Displace](AverageFC(Price, Length1), "SimpAvg1");
Plot2[Displace](AverageFC(Price, Length2), "SimpAvg2");


Inputs: BZColor(DarkRed), BBZColor(Red), SZColor(Green), SSZColor(DarkGreen);


If Plot1 > Plot2 And Plot1 > Plot1[1] then Begin
SetPlotColor(1, SZColor);
End
Else
If Plot1 > Plot2 And Plot1 < Plot1[1] then Begin
SetPlotColor(1, SSZColor);
End
Else
If Plot1 < Plot2 And Plot1 < Plot1[1] then Begin
SetPlotColor(1, BZColor);
End
Else
If Plot1 < Plot2 And Plot1 > Plot1[1] then Begin
SetPlotColor(1, BBZColor);

end;
end

No, it's not what i need. What i mean is, when you
open up your studies, strategies in power Editor
window to veiw the EL source codes, you can see
them color coded as default or user preferance.

You can color-code reserved words, functions,
skipwords, system or predefined variables,
but not inputs and user-defined variables?

example:
inputs: lenght1(10), lenght2(20);
var: buysignal(false);

buysignal= if highest(c, lenght1) > highest(c, lenght2)
if buysignal then .......;

I want word "buysignal" to be blue and words " lenght1,
lenght2 " to be green or any other colors as per my choice

Thanks for searching. I wanted to learn how to do this myself. I think View to EasyLanguage PowerEditor Preferences to Syntax Coloring will do what you want.
