  Hello,

  I need to code a lot of indicators and share it with friends or other people. But I need to set a “end date” to use it. Example: This indicator is ending one year later to 10/14/2020 and is function is off.

  With which code can I realize?

   

  Thanks

  You can add something like this to your code:

  if opendate < 20201014 then result = average[200] //replace with your indicator code else result = undefined if not done then drawtext("Warning - this indicator has expired",barindex,result[1],SansSerif,Bold,16)coloured(128,0,0) done = 1 endif endif return result

  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11

  if opendate < 20201014 then result = average[200] //replace with your indicator code else result = undefined if not done then drawtext("Warning - this indicator has expired",barindex,result[1],SansSerif,Bold,16)coloured(128,0,0) done = 1 endif endif   return result

  You could even give advanced warning that an indicator is about to expire:

  expirydate = 20180101 advancewarningdate = 20171201 if opendate >= advancewarningdate then if not donewarning then drawtext("Warning - this indicator will expire in one month",barindex,result[1],SansSerif,Bold,16)coloured(128,0,0) donewarning = 1 endif endif if opendate < expirydate then result = average[200] //replace with your indicator code else result = undefined if not done then drawtext("Warning - this indicator has expired",barindex,result[1],SansSerif,Bold,16)coloured(128,0,0) done = 1 endif endif return result

  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21

  expirydate = 20180101 advancewarningdate = 20171201   if opendate >= advancewarningdate then if not donewarning then drawtext("Warning - this indicator will expire in one month",barindex,result[1],SansSerif,Bold,16)coloured(128,0,0) donewarning = 1 endif endif   if opendate < expirydate then result = average[200] //replace with your indicator code else result = undefined if not done then drawtext("Warning - this indicator has expired",barindex,result[1],SansSerif,Bold,16)coloured(128,0,0) done = 1 endif endif   return result
