I'd like if you could have the time to change something in the code if possible. It's about the autoscale property of the plotted dots.
Imagine a CL 4 range chart with a VisualEma of 1m 8ema at news time; although I have set up autoscale to false on that indicator, NT is autoscaling the chart out of the dots or nodes that the indicator plots.
NT allows me to change manually the dot autoscale property but only on a one by one basis
Would there be a way to change this behaviour? Or else allow not to plot the dots? (tho I find them useful)
@davidfa: I have made the changes. If you download the latest version of the indicators from the download section of the forum, you should find that the dot autoscale property is set to false.
Today I began to SIM practice trading PERRY METHOD with the new Visual SMA.
So far the results are outstanding.
The indicator alone is impressive, but I especially love how your paint bars allow one to see within the candle. (In general, I hate most colored candles for that reason). I love been able to see whether it was an up or down bar.
Thanks for sharing your work.
QUESTION: Would it be possible to paint the candle one color and have the actual line paint a different color?
Since gauging the degree of slope is so important with what I'm doing, I suspect others would find this visual distinction helpful too.
Hello Fat Tails. I just installed the most recent version of the Visual SMA. I noticed that the size of the nodes when selecting "visual" seems to be related to the width of the price bars. I like large price bars but would like the ability to adjust the size of the nodes. I certainly understand if this may not be a high priority but hoping you can throw it on your already long to do list. Thanks again for all you do.
The code uses the NinjaScript method DrawDot() which does not allow to adjust for size. But as this method is slow to plot, it is a good idea to replace it with a PlotSeries. This will also make the indicator faster, so I will shortly implement it.
Originally I had only used the colored dots for debugging the indicator, and then had left them as an option. This explains why I used the inefficient DrawDot() method.
