I have written the following code to plot % chg in price of ticker from starting date to ending date (using parameters). I have to problems: 1. when I change the date it crashes, point to from date in the title. 2. when it works, it draws a horizontal line from first visible bar to the starting date. I want to eliminate this line. TIA
dt=DateTime(); StartDate = ParamDate ( "Start Date" , Date () ); EndDate = ParamDate ( "End Date" , Date () ); StartDateBar = LastValue(ValueWhen ( DateNum () == StartDate, BarIndex ())); EndDateBar = LastValue(ValueWhen( DateNum () == EndDate, BarIndex () )); Ticker = 0; for (Bar = StartDateBar; Bar < EndDateBar-1; Bar++) { ticker[bar] = 100 *(( C[Bar] - C[ StartDateBar ])/C[StartDateBar ]); //_TRACE("Bar: " + Bar + " StartDateBar " + C[ StartDateBar ] + " C [Bar] " + C[Bar]); } Plot( ticker, Name(), colorBlue ); SetChartOptions( 1, chartShowDates ); PlotGrid( 0, colorYellow ); Title = "From: " + WriteVal(dt[StartDateBar],formatDateTime) + " To: " + Date() + " - " + "{{VALUES}}" + "\n" + Interval(2) + " - " + _DEFAULT_NAME();
