CrossBelow Custome draw

[fercho]

Hi, can Ninja coding a way to exit a position when Close[0] cross below a custom line?

if (CrossBelow(Close, "Blue Line", 1)

ExitLong("Exit","Long");

It doessn´t compile although I've added the indicator to the strategy that plotted the "Blue Line" on the chart.


Thanks for help.

Hello,

There are two ways to do this.

One way means when you add the strategy it will draw the line on the chart and have "control" over it.

The other way means it will scan the chart for a user drawn line with a specific name and grab the price from it.

What way do you want and I can send information on how to do this.

I think it will helpfull the second way. Thanks in advance

Hello,

You would need to use the following code:

 foreach (IDrawObject draw in DrawObjects)
  {


        if (draw.DrawType == DrawType.HorizontalLine)
        {
                    ILine globalLine         = (ILine) draw;
                   if (Close[0] >= globalLine.EndY) 
                   EnterLong();

        }

         

 }
