New Features

IDL Indicators

– New object ExtHeap that can be used as a communication tool between an indicator and its nested indicators
– Itself object new method ParentExtHeap for the access of the ExtHeap from the parent indicator
– Heap object new methods –

IntCount : integer returns the number of Int items that are stored within the heap

IntItem (AnIndex : integer, var AName : string, var AValue : integer) : boolean gives the user access to the stored Int items through an enumeration process using AnIndex from 0 to IntCount - 1 to access both the name and value stored within each item

RealCount : integer returns the number of Real items that are stored within the heap

RealItem (AnIndex : integer, var AName : string, var AValue : integer) : boolean gives the user access to the stored Real items through an enumeration process using AnIndex from 0 to RealCount - 1 to access both the name and value stored within each item

Formula Indicators

– New objects with functions to match the IDL equivalent – heap, pheap, extheap, parentextheap, gheap
– Listing of introductory functions for these heap objects, more will be added over time,

Allocate (size : integer)
Value (slot : integer) : double
SetValue (condition : boolean, slot : integer, value : double)
Real (name : string) : double
SetReal (condition : boolean, name : string, value : double)
Int (name : string) : integer
SetInt (condition : boolean, name : string, value : integer)

All functions sharing the same name as the IDL counterpart works in about the same way.

e.g. you can assign a value using heap.setreal (true, "name", data1) and obtain the stored value using heap.real ("name")

The parameter condition needs to be true for the various set functions to assign values to the heap item. This gives you the ability to control if value is to be assigned to the heap or not.

Misc

– Continuous Contract Table Editor added Clear All button
– Various export commands added support of the new 1 million+ rows limit in Microsoft Excel 2007

Bug Fixes

– Time and Sales export to Excel printing bid/ask data as type -99, which is designated for bad sequence data. Bids are now reported as type 10 and Asks are now reported as type 20
– Time and Sales export to Excel now straightly duplicate what is shown in the window into Excel
– Drawing tools – Support/Resistance, Fib Price 2 Points, Fib Price 3 Points, when used in a chart with log scale, display of price level labels wrongly and inconsistently when the chart is rescaled or when the drawing objects are moved
– Continuous Contract Table Editor sometimes not responding to clicks on the listing area if there is only 1 entry in the table

Notes

– Build 58 and 59 are released for internal testing only
– documentation update will be done in next release
