MultiCharts: Trading Software for Automated Trading and Backtesting • View topic - How to know on witch charts indicator indicator is apply

Same indicator is applied to two instrument on a workspace. This simple indicator do detect inside bar than plot on a chart a text "IB" above the Inside bar

Now, I want to add a voice message and save some value in a global variable. I need to detect witch data is in use so I can discriminate my voice message and my saved value

Any way to do that?

Hi,

Please be nice. While it is true not enough information was given, the second part of your reply is rude and is not welcome here. Help keep NexusFi (formerly BMT) free of this type of behavior.

Bimi and other

Just to say that I did partially resolve my problem using: getsymbolname


A simple indicator is use to send a voice message when an inside bar do occur in one of the instrument. My quest is to determine witch instrument do have an inside bar since the same voice message is use.

Here is how to reproduce

I did try to create a wav file, but i was not able to attached it to this post

Creating a voice message:
Select or create a WAV file using https://www.google.ca/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&ved=0CDMQFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww2.research.att.com%2F~ttsweb%2Ftts%2Fdemo.php&ei=M1WzUImPFYqw0QH-lYCgCw&usg=AFQjCNEogV2BXnJFR8R3Cj9b4gQhCaiQ2Q&sig2=4bK34r3ZymBHozJxlsRgrA&cad=rjt
Write a text: Inside bar.... Select Mike Voice ( no link with famous Big Mike
Select download
On the provided link, right click and select save as.... Select a file name and a disk location

In the provided code, modify your file location in the Playsound

Create a worspace with two instruments
- Applied the indicator to it

Now if you succeed to create both workspace and the sound file, you will see that it is not possible to determine witch instrument does have seen is price creating an inside bar.

 

Code

Var: Pipvalue (.0001), ID (0), If Barstatus[1] = 2 then begin If High <High[1] and Low > Low[1] then begin Playsound("G:\Users\Utilisateur\Documents\Bourse\Sound\One_Hour_Valid_IB.wav"); ID = text_new(date,time,high , "IB" ); value1= text_setlocation(ID, date,time, (h + pipvalue *2)); value1 = text_setstyle(id,2,1); value1 = Text_setcolor(ID,blue); Value1 = Text_SetSize(id, 6); // Saving to global variable not include in this example end; end;
