Does anyone have a working example on how to implement the SymbolID function into OmniLanguage? I get the symbol reference# but how is this applied to a formula? Simple example: SymbolID("")=5425 SMA(10) > SMA(20) How would this be written? Thanks! | |||

So 5425 is SPY & you're wanting the filter to pass all symbols only if the SMA(10) > SMA(20) on SPY is true? Or do you want the filter to pass if the symbol is SPY as well as the SMA(10) > SMA(20) is true? This formula will pass any symbol if SPY's SMA(10) is greater than SPY's SMA(20). SMA(GetClose("SPY"),10) > SMA(GetClose("SPY"),20) That could also be written like this. This formula will pass ONLY the SPY if SPY's SMA(10) is greater than SPY's SMA(20). All other symbols will not pass. SymbolID("") = 5425 AND SMA(10) > SMA(20)  Attached file : SymbolID.png (13KB - 203 downloads) | |||

Sorry for the delayed response. What I am after is in omni language for a stop. I use many references to $SPX in my formulas and am trying to write a stop referencing the stop value of the $SPX for the given symbol. STOP EX: if SMA($SPX) > SMA($SPX)[1] then exit signal.... My formulas are complex but the syntax will(should) work regardless. Thanks for the help! | |||

In that case you would not use SymbolID. You could have an OmniScript stop set to a condition like this... SMA(GetClose("$SPX"),10) > SMA(GetClose("$SPX"),20) | |||

One of the indicators that I use out of the box is SuperTrend but I am having trouble writing this referencing $spx. Tried many ways using your example with no luck. Any ideas? | |||
