Enum Declarations

[brucelevy]

I've deleted the sample reference indicator which had the same name in the global namespace and added the changes but still have some compile errors.

Hello brucelevy,

Thanks for your reply.

Please use the HMA overload that includes the bars ago reference:
SetStopLoss(HMA(20)[0]);

Additionally, you need to call UniversalMovingAverage from the _UniversalMovingAverageEnums namespace where it resides like so:
public _UniversalMovingAverageEnums.UniversalMovingAverag e matype = _UniversalMovingAverageEnums.UniversalMovingAverag e.SMA;

the same in your case:
case _UniversalMovingAverageEnums.UniversalMovingAverag e.HMA:
{
SetStopLoss(HMA(20)[0]);
break;
}

You will need to include the break after all necessary actions are executed so that control can be transferred outside of the switch statement or to another case label.

Please let me know if I may be of any further assistance.
