Parabolic SAR

[shawnkm]

I am trying to use Parabolic SAR as an exit. How do you exit using Parabolic SAR? I included a picture. If you are long and Parabolic goes above, exit long. I have tried everything with no luck.

I was thinking it was this:

if (ParabolicSAR(0.02,0.2,0.02)[0] < Close[0])

Thank you.

Hello shawnkm,

Thank you for your post.

You want to check when the ParaboliSAR crosses above the close, right?

If so, it would be the following:

			if (CrossAbove(ParabolicSAR(0.02, 0.2, 0.02), Close, 1))
			{
				ExitLong();
			}

Please let me know if I may be of further assistance.

If you are long and Parabolic goes above, exit long.

if (ParabolicSAR(0.02,0.2,0.02)[0] < Close[0])

Wouldn't that be this?

if (ParabolicSAR(0.02,0.2,0.02)[0] > Close[0])
