ZigZag as a filter

[Rainbowtrader]

Hello programmer's,

I were building a little indicator for a special Candlestick. This candlestick indicator now needs a new filter. I have a long indicator and a short indicator, too.This is, what should the new code line have to do - in case of the long indicator:

Draw the candlestick signal, if the 1 percent ZigZag is in long modus, too. That means: if the current ZigZag value is higher than the candle before, so draw my signal.

Can someone write me this line with the correct parameters?

Thanks a lot,
Rainbowtrader

Hello Josh,

do you mean that seriously? I bought the NT licence years ago, and this is the official helping support forum - and you stopped in fact all kind of "one helps the others" with this answer? Is it no more wished, that "one helps the other" - is that a commercial forum since a while? It's not the first time I get this answer here in NT support forum.

What is wrong here?

Rainbowtrader,

In order to assist myself I would need psuedo code that can easily be translated. I unfortunately do not understand the requirements you have set for the programmer in your post.

NinjaTrader Support has never created code for clients. We will leave this forum post open for anyone that can write this code for free.

Hello Josh,

I had build a scenario and you can see its at the screenshot I made.
The pseudo code I had written in the indicator file, that I had attached too.

The indicator is generating a signal in a blue square with the character "L".
The code lines before the pseudo code is beginning are for creating its with the first and the second code line.
The both lines under the signal are 2 filters.
The pseudo code is for filtering, too.

Here is the pseudo code, too:

Pseudo code for filtering, so that the long-signals in the short direction of the ZigZag are sorted out  // RED CROSSES = not valid
AND (                                                                                                 // if one of the next is true
             (1-percent-ZigZag is in long direction) OR                                          // YELLOW CIRCLES = valid
             (1-percent-ZigZag is at the swingpoint from short to long) OR                       // GREEN CIRCLES = valid
             (the last swingpoint from 1-percent-ZigZag is the one from short to long)              // PINK CIRCLE = valid
           )

Thank you for helping.

Best regards,
Rainbowtrader
