stochastic with WMA

[politcat]

it appears the stochastic indicator uses simple moving average.

Is there a way to have it use weighted moving average?

Hi politcat,

Yes, you can open up the Stochastics code, save it under a different name and change the 'SMA' in the last D.Set into a WMA to change the final smoothing in the indicator. If you also like to change the K.Set smoothing to WMA the programming becomes a bit more involved (not knowing how familiar you are with NinjaScript).

For some good tutorials on custom indicator coding, please take a look here - http://www.ninjatrader-support.com/H...verview18.html

I changed the D.Set line to WMA.

I would like to change the K.Set smoothing to WMA also, but I really don't know anything about programming

I couldn't find "k.set" in the help guide

can someone provide the WMA version of this:

K.Set(100 * SUM(nom, Smooth)[0] / (SUM(den, Smooth)[0] == 0 ? 1.0 : SUM(den, Smooth)[0]));

thx!

Hi politcat,

The K.Set is a DataSeries object in the code, like the one you edited already. To learn more about DataSeries objects in NinjaScript see here - http://www.ninjatrader-support.com/H...iesObject.html
