- How do I refer to a composite value in a chart formula?
For example, I have created a composite that is associated with the symbol " _P_HUGHES_BREADTH_NYSE" . If I create a chart with this symbol it defaults to candlesticks.
What will be the exact syntax to draw it as a line? (... efforts like study = _P_HUGHES_BREADTH_NY or study = ticker ("_P_HUGHES_BREADTH_NY") result in errors).

- How do I refer to a composite value in a strategy?
When using "add a rule" I can create a new composite; but how do I relate to an existing one?

Best Answer

- To draw it as a line, you can select View -> Chart Style -> Line, or you can edit the chart formula and type:
Plot(close, "Close");

- To refer a composite in a trading rule, you can use one of the following formulas: (They are the same)
a = Ticker("_P_HUGHES_BREADTH_NY", close, LastData);
a = GetSeries("_P_HUGHES_BREADTH_NY", close);
