Hello,

Thank you for the question.

For CrossAbove and CrossBelow's there are methods specific to this.

Here is some documentation on these items:

http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/helpGuides/nt7/crossabove.htm

http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/helpGuides/nt7/crossbelow.htm

Here is an example for the indicators you listed:

if(CrossAbove(RSI(12,1), Stochastics(Close,8, 10, 2).D, 1))
{
	//the RSI Crossed the Stochastics K data series. 
}

If you were to read the line above it would say:

If the RSI period 12 smoothing 1 crosses above the Stochastics D plot which is using the Close prices and a value of 8 and 10 for the D and K with a smoothing of 2 within the last 1 bar from the bar that is currently being processed then do something.

Please let me know if I may be of additional assistance.

Thanks Jesse,
But I want to check individually. If the green line on RSI cross above yellow line on RSI...

same for Stochastics, How do I check Stochastics D is > Stochastics K also ???? Can you please provide the code for RSI ???

Thanks

Hello,

I am unsure what each color line is on the image as you can change the colors.

The cross above code would be the same for all you would just need to change the plot you are checking. I would recommend reading the help guide on the Cross methods in addition to looking at the indicator methods section in the help guide as it has an example on the usage of each built in indicator.

For comparing the RSI vs the same RSI using different plot you could do the following:

 
if(CrossAbove(RSI(12,1).Avg, RSI(12,1), 1))
{
     //the RSI avg Crossed the RSI
}

For the D vs K

if(CrossAbove(Stochastics(Close,8, 10, 2).K, Stochastics(Close,8, 10, 2).D, 1))
{
	//the K crossed the D. 
}

I look forward to being of further assistance.
