Simple Hourly Time Signal Counter

[ginx10k]

Hey guys, quick question. How do I plot a Number on every signal for every hour. Lets say, there are 10 EMA cross for 8:00, I want a number on each signal that goes 1 - 10. But then at 9:00 I want the numbers to start from 0 again.

I have the code snippet

Time[0].AddMinutes(60-Time[0].Minute);

I know this calculates Current Hour, or something like that. But how do I use this information.

I want a super simple:

 if(EMA1, CrossAbove(EMA2) == EntrySignal, )  Counter++ and  if The Current Hour is Greater than Previous Hour  Counter = 0; and start signals all over again

can anyone help ??

Hello ginx10k,

Your are on the right track with the counter.

However, you should just use the time of the bar.

if (Time[0].Minute == 0)
{
counter = 0;
}
else
{
counter++;
}
