Listen carefully, I'll try to explain this as easy as I can; xy (500,500) doesn't change on your monitor, ONLY when you change the RESOLUTION OF THE PIXELS THEMSELVES!! ie. go to 800x600 etc. Then the "location" on the monitor changes. IRREGARDLESS ...

Heck, this doesn't even give back real coordinates — just time and price of 0, and x and y of -1 #property indicator_chart_window int init() { return(0); } int deinit() { return(0); } int start() { double drop_price=WindowPriceOnDropped(); ...

trendline by angle — Sangme, It is the best way, I agree. But in coding for it, and susequently testing, it will quit drawing right in a short amount of time. I wrote some code that took a price time coordinate and an angle then drew the ...

I appreciate all comments — But I don't want to continue down this line of questioning as to why "slope in price/time is better than pixel coordinates" discussion. I have my reasons and I've stated them. As hanover has said, "comparing two ...

"Why can't you simply use the slope (delta_price / delta_time) to measure and compare the gradients of lines in absolute price/time?" I know what your saying, and I agree. I have. Only to find out what I thought was a trend, wasn't. And what I ...

Yes, your previous post did answer the question. Your taking your chart too literal when it comes to finding xy coordinates. If you take one point on your chart as your "anchor", then that would be the xy coordinate of 0,0. Your second point would ...

I did read your entire post and yes, I understand it. But trading, even technical, is mostly a visual thing (we look at charts, we make decisions). But charts are nothing more than numerical representation of numbers. And thus, there's math. I know ...

I'm trying to find the meaure of an angle based on 2 points on a Moving Average. I was going down the route of trying get the xy coordinates of the points by getting windows size in pixels and figuring from there. when you say Δprice / Δtime ratio ...

Thanks, but that's not exactly a 1:1 ration when doing trying find the "anlge" of the line. (1bar does not equal 1 pip on the chart). I could use (windowpricemax-windowpricemin/windowbarsinchart) to get the ratio, but how many people, yours truly ...

Thanks Tom. I tried that a while ago, and it didn't work either. But, I added floor[i]=0; ceiling[i]=0; at the begining of the for loop and now I get the values. I don't know why, but it works. You can use 2 times and 2 prices to set tl by angle ...

Programming confusion on an EA

actually, I can't. All I get back is 0. I've even tried to get back the angle value by setting time1/price1 and time2/price2. And still all I get back is 0. Here's the code: #property copyright "Copyright 2010, Nondisclosure007" #property link ...
