Help coding indicator

[Srikanth]

Hi

I do not understand how to write the code to create the below indicator. Would any of you help, please?

The indicator is a slight variation of the Stochastic oscillator, having two lines.

Line 1:

SET A = CLOSE
SET B = MIN(CLOSE, n)
SET C = MAX(CLOSE,n)
SET D = A - B
SET E = C - B
SET F = D/E
SET G = F*100

Line 2:

N-period EMA of the above line 1.

What you have written is the FastStochastics. Make a copy of the FastStochastics that ships with NinjaTrader, and change "line 61" to reference the EMA instead of the SMA. You make the copy by using the NT editor to open the file, then using the right-click menu to save the file to a different name.

Make sure that you recompile the assembly after you make the change.

Many thanks, koganam. I find the readings of StochasticsFast different from what I wanted. However, for all practical purposes, the FS works just as well. Thanks for your suggestion about the EMA.

Er, no. It is EXACTLY the calculation for the FastStochastics.

What you wrote are broken out versions of lines 53, 54 and 59 in the NT ship-code.
