Simple Ninjascript question

[MicroAl]

I am trying to check for the following conditions

if ((Volume[0] > Volume[1]) && (Volume[1] > Volume [2]))
if ((High[0] > High[1]) && (High[1] > High[2]))

This works but is there a way to combine the test so that all conditions can be evaluated in one if statement? I have tried various combinations of brackets but nothing seems to work

Hi MicroAl,

Yes you can combine them....

if ((Volume[0] > Volume[1]) && (Volume[1] > Volume [2]) && (High[0] > High[1]) && (High[1] > High[2]))

Or:

if (Volume[0] > Volume[1] && Volume[1] > Volume [2] && High[0] > High[1] && High[1] > High[2])

Simple Ninjascript question

Thanks guys tried for ages but could not get it to work. I have now tried adding three statements in the code block following the if statement:-
{
BarColor = Color.Gold;
DrawTriangleUp(CurrentBar.ToString(), true, 0, High[0] + TickSize, Color.Red);
DrawTriangleDown(CurrentBar.ToString(), true, 0, Low[0] - TickSize, Color.Red);
}

However I cannot get Ninja to draw both the down and the up triangles at the same time. In the above example the Down triangles are drawn only. If I comment out this line the up triangles are drawn - Any ideas?

It should work. Try again.

if (Volume[0] > Volume[1] && Volume[1] > Volume [2] && High[0] > High[1] && High[1] > High[2])


Regards,
Nirmala

Opps should have been more clear. I tried for ages myself but the supplied answer on the condition test works fine. What I cannot get to work now is for ninja to implement the code contained in the {} below. It only seems to draw a triangle down and not an up triangle. I cannot see why all three code lines are not implemented.

Try: (this is untested)

DrawTriangleUp("up" + CurrentBar, true, 0, High[0] + TickSize, Color.Red);
DrawTriangleDown("dwn" +CurrentBar, true, 0, Low[0] - TickSize, Color.Red);

You were reusing the same object name, you need to make them different....and you don't need the ToString part.


Hope that helps...

Thanks Mountainclimber I copied the examples from the help guide and did not notice that I needed different tags -Duh.

No, worries. Minor oversights are 95% of the mistakes I (and everyone else I have talked to) make in programming. Sometimes it takes a fresh pair of eyes.
