output window

[ionaz]

Hi Ninjatrader support,

I have a problem with what I see in the output window.
I am developing a custom indicator and just for debuging purposes I need the output window. I expect to see a single value. For example I ask to show a result of MRO (most recent occurrence). So instead of returning a single value, a lot of values are returned.
How can tweak a code or some settings so that I can see a single value?

Thanks

ionaz,

There is no real way to do this currently in the output window. You could use something like DrawTextFixed() : http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/h...wtextfixed.htm

Hi AdamP,

Thank for your reply.

Query 1
I understand that it is not possible to do that in the output window. I thought maybe it might be possible to change something in the code to force output window to return a single value.

Query 2
I have a code:
int ago = MRO(delegate {return EMA(21)[0] > SMA(89)[0];}, 1, 10);
if(ago > -1)
Plot0.Set(1);

Print (ago);

My goal is to filter out the stocks where ema(21) is above sma(89) for the last 10 days. I believe this code above does that and market analyzer returns 1 in such a case. However I have just observed a stock NIHD(daily), where this condition is not met (ema(21) is below sma(89)) but 1 is still returned as if the condition is met.
Do you know what goes wrong here and what can I do about it?

Query 3
In the Output Window, which values, the ones at the top or the ones at the bottom represent the latest data? It looks like the top ones represent then newest data.

The top values are:
-1
0
0
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
-1
-1
-1
-1
-1
-1
-1
-1
-1

And the bottom values are:
-1
-1
-1
-1
-1
-1
-1
-1
-1
-1
-1
-1
-1
-1
-1

Your code says to print all values of "ago"

Do you mean this:

to only print "ago" if it is >-1 ?

int ago = MRO(delegate {return EMA(21)[0] > SMA(89)[0];}, 1, 10);

if(ago > -1)
{ 
    Plot0.Set(1);
    Print (ago);
}
