No signal by Momentum definition

[Blackburn]

Hallo,

I have programmed the following code (is part of an indicator for signals for the MA):

...
protected override void OnBarUpdate()
{
// Make sure there are enough bars.
if (CurrentBar < 10)
return;

//ODR LONG:

// Kurzfristige Trendausrichtung:
if (EMA(10)[0] > EMA(10)[2]

//Momentum Entwicklung:
&& Momentum(EMA(10), 10)[0] > 0
&& Momentum(EMA(10), 10)[0] > Momentum(EMA(10), 10)[2]

//Langfristige Trendausrichtung:
&& EMA(8)[0] > EMA(10)[0]
&& EMA(10)[0] > EMA(20)[0]
&& EMA(20)[0] > EMA(50)[0]
&& EMA(20)[0] > SMA(200)[0]
&& EMA(50)[0] > SMA(200)[0]

// 2. SwingHigh - Pattern - Definition LONG:
&& CrossAbove(Close, Swing(5).SwingHigh, 1))

{
Value.Set(1);
}

Problem: the indicator ignored the momentum code. Wehre ist the error?

Blackburn,

I am not seeing anything immediately obvious here. Could you describe what is happening here in a bit more detail?

Hallo,

please see the attach files. One of the points is, the the MOM must <0; on the pictures you see that isn't so. I got a signal (value 1) in the MA.

would it be possible that it is up to the settings in MA?
- # of bars look back: 256
- calculate on bar close: false

MOM must be > 0

Hello,

Thanks for that information.

Specifically the session template between market analyzer and chart need to match and also the numbers of days back loaded for indicators need to also match.

Please right click on the market analyzer and select properties.

Its there you can get access to the session template.

Finally: right click columns on the market analyzer. Set the indicator column to load the same amount of days/bars back that the chart is loading.

Hallo,
do you mean the - # of bars look back?
The # of bars look back in the properties of the MA and for the indicator must have the same value; is this right?

Correct, this would need to be roughly the same amount of bars back you have in your chart for the same signal.
