Highest Close of Green Bars only.

[strategy1]

Using ormal, li.MsoNormal, div.MsoNormal {mso-style-parent:""; margin:0in; margin-bottom:.0001pt; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";} @page Section1 {size:8.5in 11.0in; margin:1.0in 1.25in 1.0in 1.25in; mso-header-margin:.5in; mso-footer-margin:.5in; mso-paper-source:0;} div.Section1 {page:Section1;} --> MAX(Close, 10)[0] returns the highest close over the last 10 bars.

How would I get the highest close over the last 10 bars (provided however that it was a green bar (open higher than close)?

Thanks

You will need to create your own loop condition and check for it manually.

Are there any examples to look at?

Are there any examples that could help me with this?

Unfortunately there are no examples. You will just need to work through the logic and create yourself a loop to do this.

Untested code.

while(x < 10)
{
    if (Close[0] > Open[0])
    {
         if (High[0] > lastHigh)
              lastHigh = High[0];
    }
    x++;
}

Why the loop?

After spending some time with this, what would be the point to set up a loop?

Since OnBarUpdate executes every time a Bar is closed can I not just check for a close > open and if true set HighestClose to Close[0]?

I actually did this and it appears to work. But being new to NT are there other things I am not aware of or things that I should consider?

Also any performance issues I should consider?

Thanks

Hello,

The loop allows you to check back in history (10 bars in Josh's example).

If I understand you correctly, your method would only check going forward. However if that is what you want then give it a try.
