Strategy wizard questions

[rh017548]

I am using the strategy wizard to develop a program. I can't seem to get two conditions to work. I want the conditions to be when the MACD's direction is "pointing up".

When using the condition builder i used macd then selected the double equal sign, then went to misc. and selected rising.

When I pressed ok it gave me an error about the "expressions not matching". I would to make aother condition based on the directions of the indicators at a particular moment. Please help.

Hello rh017548,

Welcome to our forums.

Please see the reference sample below for using Rising and Falling conditions in the strategy wizard.

Thanks for the reply ryan.
So I read the file you provided, and this is the code I came up with:

if (Rising(MACD(12, 26, 9) .Avg[1]) == true
&& Rising(CCI(14)[1]) == true)

is this correct for "" The MACD and the CCI have to be rising "pointing up"?

thanks

Yes, a rising condition will compare its value to it previous value.

In your example though, you are using an index, which would be looking for a double input. You don't need the [1] in either statement.
