+9Bar Timer Modification

[galsermil]

Kate ,

should I be using the
<AddChartIndicator(MyBarTimer1);> every time I add an indicator?

Hello galsermil,

Thank you for your reply.

Not necessarily, but it would be needed in this case since that particular indicator looks for ChartControl.

Please let us know if we may be of further assistance to you.

Kate,

I keep expanding off the same strategy and I have one expansion that keeps changing itself to <exclude From Compilation>, I change it back and compile without an issue but when I go back it is back to exclude.

Kate,

Everything is good except I still only get -0- for secs left in both the indicator and and the Strategy. I know what it is but I don't know how to fix it.
timeLeft = (barTimeLeft.Ticks < 0
? "00:00:00"
: barTimeLeft.Hours.ToString("00") + ":" + barTimeLeft.Minutes.ToString("00") + ":" + barTimeLeft.Seconds.ToString("00"));

This all takes place in: rivate void OnTimerTick(object sender, EventArgs e)

Hello galsermil,

Thank you for your reply.

I am not seeing the same on my end with this reduced version of your script:



I'm seeing the prints from the strategy match what I'm seeing on the chart.

If you test with the attached reduced example, do you see the prints as you would expect?

Thanks in advance; I look forward to assisting you further.

I am getting rather strange results. See the screenshot

I sent you the wrong Output Tab. TThis one is different but not much better.https://www.screencast.com/t/1O5ePkUCIBQ

Kate,

Dummy that I am, are we not going to get rather strange results when printing by the tick?

[galsermil]

Kate,
I thought that I was real smart and introduced <IsFirstTickOfBar> which was ridiculous, and I got a couple of high powered errors so I changed it back but now on two charts, I get all -0-'s.

Hello galsermil,

Thank you for your replies.

The second screenshot you've provided is printing as I would expect. Make sure you're only doing the prints on the primary series since that's what BarTimer is running on. As there may be multiple ticks in a second, I'd expect to see it print like your second screenshot.

Please let us know if we may be of further assistance to you.
