Hi,
For this question, I wasn’t sure to post it here or in ‘feature requests’ forum.
So here goes.
I often calculate the degrees of price movement from Pivot 1 to Pivot 2 e.g Lo to Hi, using hexagon chart.
e.g Lo = 10, Hi = 144
The degree movement is 1800 + 35 = 1835, using the Hex Chart manually.
i.e 5 circles from value 10 on chart (5 x 360 = 1800) + 35degrees to reach 144
Is there a function(s) in Optuma scripting which i can use to calculate above?
I was hoping to instrument that calculation in the Time price Measure tool as a new label.
No there is no easy way but what we can do in a future version is add the calculation to the TPL tool. We already do that for Sq9 measures (although I just noticed we called it “Price” when it should be “Angle”).
That will be great if that is available in some future version.
Just to expand on my use case, I usually calculate this manually with hex chart now (not just the angle but the total degrees from one price to another price as per example earlier), after which i perform couple of other calculations with the total degrees to arrive at a final value. I use that final value in my analysis.
I was hoping i can automate that with scripts within TPM tool. Ideally a new function within Optuma scripting would allow me to do that. hexp(P1,P2)
I am not sure TPL will allow me to automate in my use case.
Anyway, if you do consider this feature for a future version, I would be keen to have a phone discussion or screen share to explain that better at that time.
