Compare SMA and EMA

[kunkun80]

Hello, I'm looking for a way to measure the distance between an EMA and an SMA to calculate how many ticks are separated in a historical series. Is there any method in ninja? Thank you

Hello kunkun80,

As an example:

double difference = EMA(7)[0] - SMA(7)[0];

This would give the difference between the plot values.

difference = Instrument.MasterInstrument.RoundToTickSize(differ ence);

This would round to the nearest tick size;

int tickDistance = difference / TickSize;

This would give the number of ticks that represent that difference.
