Rising() condition

[cmspruill]

I found that the definition for a rising condition in the wizard strategy builder is:

Checks for a rising condition which is true when the current value is greater than the value of 1 bar ago.

Is there any way to make this x bars ago, such as 2 or 3 bars ago? It just seems very restrictive only being able to do the difference between the current bar and prior bar. The rising condition would be so much more useful on some of my indicators if I could see if the current bar value is rising from 2 or 3 bars back rather than 1.

Is this possible?

cmspruill, this is unfortunately not possible with the Rising() method, however it could be setup with the condition builder / relational operator working on your custom indicators - http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/h...on_builder.htm

How can I access de condition builder in a custom indicator?

Hello,

Thank you for the question.

There is actually no condition builder specific for an indicator because indicators require manual coding.

You do have two options to "generate" syntax though, the first in the NinjaScript editor you can press "F2" to display the snippet menu.

Secondly you can create a new strategy to access the strategy wizard, create a condition and then click "View Code". This would display the NinjaScript generated from the Wizard which you could then copy and paste into an indicator.

I look forward to being of further assistance.
