Simple script showing values correctly on Daily but not lower TFs

  Hi all,

  I’ve a simple “Camarilla Levels” script for PRT. It used to display fine on all timeframes in PRT 10.3 but ever since moving to PRT 11, it shows correctly on daily but wrong values in lower TFs.

  Code is below

  Cam-Pivots

  defparam drawonlastbaronly = true //vertical offset to draw text correctly over horizontal lines //Voffset = 5*pipsize Voffset = 0// -3*pipsize textloc=barindex //yesterday's value highhtf = DHigh(1) lowhtf = DLow(1) closehtf=DClose(1) //Camarilla Pivot Point P = (highhtf + lowhtf + closehtf)/3 RP= round(P) DRAWTEXT(" CPiv #RP#",textloc,RP,SansSerif,Bold,11)//coloured(255,0,128) DRAWHLINE(RP) DRange = highhtf - lowhtf H5 = round((highhtf / lowhtf) * closehtf) // Breakout Target H4 = round(closehtf + DRange * 1.1/2) // Bullish Breakout H3 = round(closehtf + DRange * 1.1/4) // Sell Reversal //H2 = round(closehtf + DRange * 1.1/6) //H1 = round(closehtf + DRange * 1.1/12) //L1 = round(closehtf - DRange * 1.1/12) //L2 = round(closehtf - DRange * 1.1/6) L3 = round(closehtf - DRange * 1.1/4) // Buy Reversal L4 = round(closehtf - DRange * 1.1/2) // Bearish Breakout L5 = round(closehtf - (H5 - closehtf)) // Bearish Target //draw pivot points text DRAWTEXT(" BOT-H5 #H5#",textloc,H5+Voffset,SansSerif,Bold,12)coloured(255,0,128) DRAWTEXT(" BBO-H4 #H4#",textloc,H4+Voffset,SansSerif,Bold,12)coloured(0,200,0) DRAWTEXT(" SR-H3 #H3#",textloc,H3+Voffset,SansSerif,Bold,12)coloured(255,0,0) DRAWTEXT(" BR-L3 #L3#",textloc,L3+Voffset,SansSerif,Bold,12)//coloured(0,255,255) DRAWTEXT(" SBD-L4 #L4#",textloc,L4+Voffset,SansSerif,Bold,12)coloured(255,0,128) DRAWTEXT(" BDT-L5 #L5#",textloc,L5+Voffset,SansSerif,Bold,12)coloured(0,255,128) //draw pivot points lines with extension DRAWSEGMENT(barindex-4,H5,barindex,H5) //coloured(255,0,255) DRAWSEGMENT(barindex-4,H4,barindex,H4) //coloured(255,0,255) DRAWSEGMENT(barindex-4,H3,barindex,H3) //coloured(255,0,255) DRAWSEGMENT(barindex-4,L3,barindex,L3) //coloured(0,255,255) DRAWSEGMENT(barindex-4,L4,barindex,L4) //coloured(0,255,255) DRAWSEGMENT(barindex-4,L5,barindex,L5) //coloured(0,255,255) RETURN

  Any thoughts what could be the problem here?

  Indeed, there is sometimes strange behaviour of the code, coming from constants like Dopen or Dlow, I can replicate with the below code:

  defparam drawonlastbaronly = true //vertical offset to draw text correctly over horizontal lines //Voffset = 5*pipsize Voffset = 0// -3*pipsize textloc=barindex //yesterday's value highhtf = DHigh(1) lowhtf = DLow(1) closehtf=DClose(1) //Camarilla Pivot Point P = (highhtf + lowhtf + closehtf)/3 RP= round(P) DRAWTEXT(" CPiv #RP#",textloc,RP,SansSerif,Bold,11)//coloured(255,0,128) DRAWHLINE(RP) DRange = highhtf - lowhtf H5 = round((highhtf / lowhtf) * closehtf) // Breakout Target H4 = round(closehtf + DRange * 1.1/2) // Bullish Breakout H3 = round(closehtf + DRange * 1.1/4) // Sell Reversal //H2 = round(closehtf + DRange * 1.1/6) //H1 = round(closehtf + DRange * 1.1/12) //L1 = round(closehtf - DRange * 1.1/12) //L2 = round(closehtf - DRange * 1.1/6) L3 = round(closehtf - DRange * 1.1/4) // Buy Reversal L4 = round(closehtf - DRange * 1.1/2) // Bearish Breakout L5 = round(closehtf - (H5 - closehtf)) // Bearish Target //draw pivot points text DRAWTEXT(" BOT-H5 #H5#",textloc,H5+Voffset,SansSerif,Bold,12)coloured(255,0,128) DRAWTEXT(" BBO-H4 #H4#",textloc,H4+Voffset,SansSerif,Bold,12)coloured(0,200,0) DRAWTEXT(" SR-H3 #H3#",textloc,H3+Voffset,SansSerif,Bold,12)coloured(255,0,0) DRAWTEXT(" BR-L3 #L3#",textloc,L3+Voffset,SansSerif,Bold,12)//coloured(0,255,255) DRAWTEXT(" SBD-L4 #L4#",textloc,L4+Voffset,SansSerif,Bold,12)coloured(255,0,128) DRAWTEXT(" BDT-L5 #L5#",textloc,L5+Voffset,SansSerif,Bold,12)coloured(0,255,128) //draw pivot points lines with extension DRAWSEGMENT(barindex-4,H5,barindex,H5) //coloured(255,0,255) DRAWSEGMENT(barindex-4,H4,barindex,H4) //coloured(255,0,255) DRAWSEGMENT(barindex-4,H3,barindex,H3) //coloured(255,0,255) DRAWSEGMENT(barindex-4,L3,barindex,L3) //coloured(0,255,255) DRAWSEGMENT(barindex-4,L4,barindex,L4) //coloured(0,255,255) DRAWSEGMENT(barindex-4,L5,barindex,L5) //coloured(0,255,255) RETURN highhtf ,lowhtf ,closehtf

  I will ask what cause this issue, please feel free to launch a suppor ticket with a link to this thread, I’ll do the same. Thanks.

  Thanks Nic.

  highhtf = DHigh(1)
  lowhtf = DLow(1)
  closehtf=DClose(1)

  Just a simple script to display above values will give different results on different time frames. Only daily is returning correct value because above values are Daily based.

  I have no idea right now, but a workaround would be to use the daily timeframe to get the OHLC value:

  timeframe(daily, updateonclose) highhtf = high[1] lowhtf = Low[1] closehtf = Close[1]

  1 2 3 4

  timeframe(daily, updateonclose) highhtf = high[1] lowhtf = Low[1] closehtf = Close[1]

  Thanks a lot Nic.

  Everyday is a learning day. I read somewhere Ale mentioning that MTF is there in new version but i was like it is only in scanners. I will be doing all my MTF porting from TV to PRT now. Thanks.

  Function timeframe opens many opportunities.

  The display is fine on Daily Chart but when I use lower TF charts, it doesn’t display anything.

  Because you are not switching to the default timeframe (the one displayed on the chart) in the code, add this line below line 13:

  timeframe(default)

  1	timeframe(default)

  so all the below code will be read and used on the current timeframe displayed.

  I did that but it displays different values on 1D chart, and different values on lower timeframes charts but all lower timeframes have same values. i.e.

  values of 1D isn’t equal to values from 4h/2h/1h/30/15m while (4h=2h=1h=30m=15m)

  remove updateonclose for the daily timeframe instruction, it should be ok then.

  I see no benefit either way.

  I think this workaround doesn’t work. Bug needs proper fix.
