Hello,

I seek for an advice on how to solve the problem of incorrectly positioned text above/below price bars.

Most of the time text is placed correctly when Close price crosses supertrend line but when there are multiple candles with the same timestamp like 15:28 (and the next one also 15:28) the drawing is placed incorrectly. Seems EasyLanguage cannot distinguish miliseconds part of a candle timestamp

Platform used is OEC Trader

See the screenshot attached

Is there any way to solve this?

Thanks for help

 

Code

// SuperTrend indicator inputs: ATRLength(3), ATRMult(1), MedLength(2), UpColor(green), DnColor(red); variables: ATR(0), medi(0), dn(0), up(0), trend(1), flag(0), flagh(0), SuperTrend(0), downArrow(0), upArrow(0); ATR = AvgTrueRange(ATRLength) * ATRMult; medi = Median((High+Low)/2, MedLength); up = medi + ATR; dn = medi - ATR; if Close > up[1] then trend = 1 else if Close < dn[1] then trend = -1; if trend < 0 and trend[1] > 0 then flag=1 else flag=0; if trend > 0 and trend[1] < 0 then flagh = 1 else flagh = 0; if trend > 0 and dn < dn[1] then dn=dn[1]; if trend < 0 and up > up[1] then up=up[1]; if flag = 1 then up = medi + ATR; if flagh = 1 then dn = medi - ATR; if trend = 1 then SuperTrend = dn else SuperTrend = up; if flag = 1 then begin downArrow = Text_New( Date, Time, High + 300 Point, "S"); Text_SetColor(downArrow, DnColor); end; if flagh = 1 then Begin upArrow = Text_New( Date, Time, Low - 300 Point, "B"); Text_SetColor(upArrow, UpColor); end; Plot1(SuperTrend, "SuperTrend");

tomas262,

in Tradestation or Multicharts you have the ability to draw text and draw them at a specific bar number. I am not sure if OEC does support this, as it goes beyond legacy EasyLanguage, but you might want to check if you can accomplish this with C# code within OEC.
