Export numerical data from the currently viewed chart?
13 Mar 2016, 21:21

Hello.

Could anyone tell me a way of exporting the numerical data from a chart window, including values of all indicators?

For example, if I had a EURUSD chart window open on an m5 timeframe, and had a moving average plotted on it, could I export the close price and the moving average value for each of the timeframe points over the date range shown in the chart window?

Hope that makes sense.

Thanks.

Hi Steve,

I don't think that you can export data directly from charts but you can do it very easily via a bot. Just dump OHLC data along with moving average data in OnBar() event. If you find it troublesome, you can check the bot attached with "My New Algo" profile . It dumps whole lot of indicators to a file. You can create a simple bot based on it that would serve your purpose hopefully.

Thanks T_MR - I'll give that a go, although it sounds like that operates as a "live" function, i.e. the data would be dumped when prices were updated during a live market? What I was after was a way to look at a chart from any historical time period and export the data from that view.
