int to int comparison for optimization

[dirygoatee]

Can you compare integer to integer for optimization?

i.e. I want to open a position when the 5 period RSI is less then 25


I wanted to use the RSI period for one integer, which I did easily.

but also wanted to use RSI value (25) in my example as another integer?

However, I can't change the numeric value field to take my integer? and I can't outright select my integer? as a field?

Any thoughts? Thanks

Hi dirygoatee,

The data type returned by RSI is double, so you can use a double input if you want to optimize the value of it. User defined inputs can be setup in the strategy wizard, or by following guidelines in this post:
