PRT Enhancement request - Indicators

[Guest Stef]

Hi All,

 

Why is the display information of an indicator not stored with the indicator?

 

When you create an indicator, you can change the display style (line, histogram, point, etc), colour, and width. You can even then set it as default for every time you put this indicator on a chart. Great!

 

But not so great when you duplicate an indicator - when for instance creating an indicator 'like' the first one, but not wanting to replace the first one.

 

When you do this, all formatting is lost. That's just stupid! So, for each variable that you return, you have to again, set things like, width, style, and colour.

 

PS: Yeah, I know that you can set the colour when you return the variable, but you cannot set the width and style. So, enhancing ProBuilder language to be able to return the width and colour would be one way (probably the easiest way) to solve this.

 

Regards

Stef

Something that I forgot...

 

What about being able to even set colour zones from within the indicator definition?

Should also not be that difficult.

Hi Stef,

 

Thanks for sharing your idea. I can see how there could be value in remembering the format and so I have contacted ProRealTime with regards to this.

 

As soon as I hear form them I will let you know!

 

Thanks

Hi Stef,

 

The ProRealTime team have reverted back with regards to your feewdback.

 

They have said they are currently working on improving the Probuilder language which will include adding new vocabulary. With the new vocabulary you will be able to draw certain objects right in the coding zone.

 

With the ideas you have shared they will be submitted to the specific team in charge of these improvements.

 

Thanks again and keep these ideas coming!
