In mt4 there is a function of ObjectGetValueByShift which can get the value of object by the bar shift value. It will be highly appreciated if such functionality been provided in cAlgo please.

I decided that I will not pursue coding within cAlgo until Object Manipulation functionality is implemented. I suspect that many others feel the same way.

Have equivalents to the following MT4 metods been implement, if not,  what is the eta.

ObjectCreate

ObjectGetValue

ObjectGet

ObjectGetTimeByValue

ObjectGetValueByTime

ObjectGetShiftByValue

ObjectGetValueByShift

ObjectSet

ObjectSetInteger

ObjectSetInteger

ObjectSetDouble

ObjectSetText

etc

 

ObjectSetColor

I know this is an old thread, but in it someone mentioned that there was a plan to implement this. Did this ever happen?

All I want to be able to do is draw a horizontal line on the chart, and access the value of that line in a bot. Is this possible?

RE: RE:

Dear Trader,

Currently you are able to access a value of an Object only if this object is created by ChartObjects methods within the same cBot/indicator. It's in our plans to provide users with the ability to also access Objects on the chart that weren't created by the cBot/indicator in the future. However, we cannot provide you with an ETA. Stay tuned.

Additionally, you can post your ideas/suggestions to http://vote.spotware.com/
