Somebody have a range bar counter for MC ???

would be greatly appreciated

Thank you so much

I got this one from the TS support site. Works great on the tick charts. Never tried it on range bars even though the indicator claims it works with range bars.

I did not write this indicator, but I'll try to help diagnose the problem. This is the code where this error message is generated:

 

Code

if barType <> 0 and // Tick/Volume Chart barType <> 1 and // Intraday (Minute) Chart barType <> 11 and // Momemtum Chart barType <> 12 // Range chart then RaiseRuntimeError("Coundown Timer is only supported for Intrabar, Tick, Volume, Momentum or Range Charts"); ...

So either your chart is not one of the above or MC identifies those charts differently than TS (by using the barType reserved word).

What chart type are you looking at when you get that error?

MC doesnt know bartype =12 and boxsize.Maybe this helps:

 

Code

input: Spacer ( " "); value2 = barinterval-(absvalue(high-low)/ (minmove/pricescale)); If barnumber=1 then value1 = text_new_s(date,time_s,close,"Remain") else text_SetLocation_s(value1 ,date,time_s,low - minmove/pricescale); text_SetString(value1 ,Spacer+ "Remain "+ numtostr(value2 ,0));

Hello cbritton ,SPMC ...

your bar counter work on minute bar no problems .. but i want it in Range bar (point) in Mc ..and i d'ont work ...
I try to change the code whith SPMC part .. and ..many error when i try to compile it ??
HAHAH !! i think is easy ..easy language ... but not sur now !!
If you have some idea.......
Thank you so much....

Serger, I modified the original indicator just for you. It will only work with range bars and it avoids using the reserved words that are not in MC. I have not tested out all of the features but it works on a range chart in TS. Create a new indicator and call it _RangeCountdownTimer. Copy the code below into it, compile and insert it on your chart.

Well...I don't know why I call it a timer since it's not timing anything, but anyways...

 

Code

{===================================================================== NAME: _RangeCountdownTimer TYPE: Indicator } inputs: VertTextPct(80{0-100}), NormColor(yellow), AlertColor(red), AlertPct(10{0-100}), DispMode(2 {1=Pct,2=Range}), dec(4)// Significant Decimals in Price ; vars: { Text Object Vars } TxtStr(""), // Text String AlertStr(""), // Alert Text String TxtID(text_new(date,time,close, " ")), // Text Object Reference { Constants } cDispPct(1), // Option to display Percentages cDispRaw(2), // Option to display Time/Tick/Vol Values Pad(" "), // Pad to right of text display BarRange(0.1); {== Initialization ===================================================} once begin // Check for valid input values if DispMode <> 1 and DispMode <> 2 then RaiseRuntimeError("The DispMode input must be set to 1 or 2"); if VertTextPct > 100 or VertTextPct < 0 then RaiseRuntimeError("The VertTextPct input must be set between 0 and 100"); if AlertPct > 100 or AlertPct < 0 then RaiseRuntimeError("The AlertPct input must be set between 0 and 100"); // Chart Specific Init AlertStr = GetSymbolName+" bar has "+NumToStr(AlertPct,0)+"% remaining"; end; if CurrentBar = 1 then begin // determine the range of the bar from the ones already shown BarRange = range[1]; end; {== Calculations ====================================================} if _LastBarOnChart then begin // Only display in real-time // Set Text Location from right of chart Value2 = Text_FloatLocation(TxtID, VertTextPct); // Calc Remaining value text if DispMode = cDispPct then TxtStr = NumToStr((((BarRange - H+L) / BarRange) * 100), 0)+"%"+Pad else if DispMode = cDispRaw then TxtStr = NumToStr(BarRange - H+L, dec)+" "+Pad; // Display Text text_setstring(TxtID, TxtStr); // Trigger Alert / Use Alert Color if (((BarRange - H+L) / BarRange) * 100) < AlertPct then begin text_SetColor(TxtID, AlertColor); Alert(AlertStr); end else text_SetColor(TxtID, NormColor); end;

Set the dec value in the input to the number of significant digits for your instrument. For example, use 4 for 6E and 2 for ES. I did not test out the % remaining part.

Let me know how that works for you.

My TS chart doesn't do that. Must be something with the way MC puts the floating text on the screen. I'm sure someone with more MC knowledge than I can fix that.

Can you clarify so I can take a look and see if I can help. I'm not understanding the problem.
