Fully Multi-threaded charting.
Fully Multi-threaded graphics.
Massively parallel execution AFL (each chart in separate thread runs pane) * Allows to maximize speed and utilisation of modern multi-core / multi-CPU computers.
Massively parallel execution of the AFL (each graph pane runs a separate thread) speed and a modern multi-core / multi-CPU to maximize the use of computers.
For example on your 8-core Intel i7 CPU upto 8 times faster than charts in version will run 5:30. The AFL engine has been completely rewritten from the ground up to allow multiple instances of the engine running simultaneously.
8-core Intel i7 processor, for example, the charts will continue until 8 times faster than version 5:30. AFL motor completely to allow for simultaneously running multiple instances of the engine from scratch, re-written.
This not only enables but also enhances responsiveness of the entire application multithreading, as the formula used even in a badly-written chart user is not able to lock or slow the rest of the program.
Multi-threading is ON by default. It can not be turned off by unchecking the "Multi-threaded charts" box in the
Tools-> Preferences , "AFL" tab but it is strongly discouraged.
Multi-threading should be ON if you want AmiBroker to operate at full speed.
If you want to run at full speed multi-threading should be ON AmiBroker.

FUNCTION
FUNCTION
The function searches for the bar with specified datetime and returns the value from the same position of the input array.
The datetime function returns the value from the same position with the bar looks and the input array.
Parameter 'mode' search is performed Decides how exact match is not found in the case when:
Parameter 'mode' when searching for an exact match is found, how to decide when:
mode = 0 - find exact match, otherwise return null
mode = 0 - to find an exact match, otherwise return null
mode = -1 - find exact match, otherwise return nearest predecesor (past last bar is if it will return a datetime value last bar)
mode = -1 - to find an exact match, otherwise the nearest predecesor (datetime the last bar of the previous bar, the value of past returns) return
mode = -2 - find exact match, otherwise return nearest predecessor EXCEPT the very last bar (last bar if past is searched, it will return a datetime Null)
mode = -2 - to find an exact match, otherwise the closest ancestor of the last bar EXCEPT (called datetime the last bar will return to the past while she is empty) return
mode = 1 - find exact match, otherwise return nearest successor (first bar, it will return if before first bar is datetime value)
mode = 1 - find an exact match, otherwise the nearest successor (the first bar before the first bar returns datetime) return
mode = 2 - find exact match, otherwise return nearest successor EXCEPT the very first bar (first bar before if it is searched, will return a datetime Null)
mode = 2 - find an exact match, otherwise the closest successor to the first bar EXCEPT (datetime sought before the first bar is empty it will return to) return
This function uses a binary search and it is very fast many times faster than previous methods such as the AFL-based FindValueAtDateTime () presented in the past.
This function uses a very fast and many times faster than binary search FindValueAtDateTime presented in the past (), such as the AFL-based method is faster than before.
Any call to FindValueAtDateTime (input, dt, value) can be replaced now with Lookup (input, value) (here is no need to pass dt-datetime).
Any call for FindValueAtDateTime (input, dt, value) now search (input, value) (where there is no need to pass a datetime dt-) can be replaced with.
NOTE: This function does not affect required QuickAFL bars, bars that therefore it will only search in arrays are actually loaded.
NOTE: This function does not affect QuickAFL bars needed, so they really look for arrays loaded rods.
For indicators that it may mean it will not be able to find out if it is invisible, unless you use SetBarsRequired () function to Ensure that more bars are loaded.
For indicators to make sure that you have more bars SetBarsRequired () can use the function as long as it does not appear that the value may not be able to find.
