KeyReversal and MACD value

[dukeb]

The keyreversal will evaluate the hi/lo of nbarsago. It will == 1 if a reversal is present.
Is there a way to capyure how many bars ago that the prior hi/lo occurred?
When ==1 I want to determine the stoch or macd value at the time of nbarsago to compare to the current value.
Thank you,
Duke

Hello dukeb,

You can use the MAX() and MIN() functions to be able to calculate the highest and lowest value over a specified period and return the number of bars ago.

MIN: http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/h...inimum_min.htm

Code Syntax

I have attached some code. Please see the screen shot for the eror codes.

Hello dukeb,

NinjaScript is case sensitive so MAX() function needs to be all capitalized as well as the MIN() function.


Here is a link to our support forums that goes over how to debug your code which comes in handy if you run into a compiling errors when writing custom code as well.

Thank you for your response. The attachment shows I have now capped MAX(). When I click on the first error it hightlights 'BarsArray' on the second line.
When I click on the second error, it highlights '20' in the first line.
It appears there is some kind of syntax issue that I am not seeing.

Hello dukeb,

Could you remove the brackets after the 20, as the brackets will only be used for an array and 20 is only an integer. See the forum post below for more information using brackets [].

"20" is an integer. 20[0] does not make sense to the compiler, (nor to a human ) You cannot index an integer.

Thank you .... in retrospect this seems rather obvious.

I understand...
Thank you..
