Trigger after multiple UP / DOWN in a row in indicator

[BReal]

I have an issue very similar to the one described and solved in the thread below.
http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/f...ghlight=period

The code below is a little modified from the thread but fits more of what I want.

        
protected override void OnBarUpdate()
        {
            // Condition set 1
        		int count = 0;
					for(int i = period - 1; i >= 0; i--)
					{
						if(Close[i] >= Close[i+1])
						{
							count++;
						}
					}
					if(count == period)
					{
						DrawArrowDown("My down arrow" + CurrentBar, false, 0, High[1] + 3 * TickSize, Color.Red);
						Print("Entered Long");
						EnterLong(1, "Long 1");
					}
					
        }

The code on this is great but I want the trigger to enter or exit trades to be based on my indicator and not on the price of the instrument. How would I swap out the "i" integer for the value of an indicator? I'm using the MACD and would like to enter a trade after 5 MACD increases in a row.

Hello BReal,

Thank you for your post.

The code would be the following for long:

			int count = 0;
			for(int i = period; i >= 0; i--)
			{
				if(MACD(12, 26, 9)[i] > MACD(12, 26, 9)[i+1])
					count++;
			}
			if(count == period)
			{
				EnterLong();
			}

Works great! Thanks!
