Combination of Indicators

[NZJim]

Hi guys,

I'm a newbie on NT and am looking for a wee bit of help if it's possible

I have got a 3 simple moving average crossover and crossbelow working fine on the backtesting, but would like to additonally add the MACD > 0 then enter long. Hope this makes sense?

Thanks
Jim

Hello Jim,

Welcome to the NinjaTrader forums!

You can add this using the condition builder. If you want this is part of your other entry conditions, then click on the set with these conditions. Click Add to make a new condition and see this page for help expressing your condition.

If you want this as a separate entry condition altogether, then click on one of the available empty sets and then add it there.

Hi Ryan,

Thanks for replying so quickly, I want to add it to an existing condition, I know how to do this, but I'm not sure how to do the MACD indicator > 0?

cheers
Jim

To do this, you want to compare an indicator to a value. You use Misc -> Numeric value to specify a value. The following link offers an examples of this:

See the section: How to make indicator to value comparisons
