Add EMA on bar chart

[Joleto]

Hey,

I have created a bar chart which process a future chart and gives some results.When I try to add an EMA on this bar chart, I take the EMA of the future chart but I want the EMA of these bars.Any idea?? (check the code)

Thanks

Hello Joleto,

Thank you for writing in. Could you please clarify further what you mean when you say "these bars"? Are you referring to the Thermometer data series? A bar chart is a type of chart but a future chart is not a type of chart. Also could you please clarify if you are using multiple instrument/time-frames in your code?

Thank you in advance.

I have involved the diagrams to the picture.The problem is that when I try to add EMA on those bars I take the EMA of the future for some reason.

Hello Joleto,

You likely have placeholder values from the future data series factoring into your calculation because you are not setting every value of the data series. Please try something like the following and let me know if the issue persists:

    Thermometer.Set(0); //This needs to occur first for every single OnBarUpdate() to clear out the DataSeries
    if((todayHigh-yesterdayHigh)>(todayLow-yesterdayLow))
    {
        Thermometer.Set(Math.Abs(todayHigh-yesterdayHigh));
        EMAThermometer.Set(EMA(Thermometer, 22)[0]);
    }

Thank you in advance.
