Triple HMA in multiple time frames

[pman777]

Attached is my ninjascript code for an indicator I need help with. My intention is to calculate two triple HMA's off of a 5 minute chart and display the relationship between these two HMA's using the background color on my trading chart (which happens to be a 322 tick chart).

I'm having a problem with the way I am calculating the HMA's. When I print out the values of my variables, the HMA's are being set to my 322 tick chart. I need them to be based on the 5 minute chart. Below is the print out of my HMA variables. I cannot determine why this is the case. Any assistance is greatly appreciated!

hma1 HMA(TF 12-12 (322 Tick),12) hma2 HMA(HMA(TF 12-12 (322 Tick),12),12) hma3 HMA(HMA(HMA(TF 12-12 (322 Tick),12),12),12)
hma1t HMA(TF 12-12 (322 Tick),12) hma2t HMA(HMA(TF 12-12 (322 Tick),12),12) hma3t HMA(HMA(HMA(TF 12-12 (322 Tick),12),12),12)

pman777, some of your logic in the script will be called on both series updates, as it's not filtered by any BarsInProgress check, is that intended?

thanks Bertrand, that should be be fine I updated the code so that actions are taken only when a specific bar is being processed. However, I am still having a problem with my HMA calculation as per the original posting.

Thanks, let's take it back a step - are you worried about the actual values you calculate or about the printing you listed?

[pman777]

ok ... the values are not correct

[NinjaTrader_Bertrand]

The reason for the incorrect values is that you're custom data series used is not synched to your added 5 min chart - here's a sample for how to do this step : http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/f...ead.php?t=3572

tx ... I saw this sample yesterday and didn't understand how to incorporate the 'synching' concept in my code

[pman777]

got it ... tx you Bertrand!

Ok, glad to hear pman777.
