Using Decimals In Parameters

[GLFX005]

Hello staff,

I created an indicator that I am using in conjunction with auto-scaling to centre the price bars on my chart. I am however not able to put decimals in the two parameters that I have.
Here's the simple code I'm using.

protected override void OnBarUpdate()
{
Values[0][0] = Open[0] + HighOffset;
Values[1][0] = Open[0] - LowOffset;
}

#region Properties
[NinjaScriptProperty]
[Range(1, int.MaxValue)]
[Display(Name="HighOffset", Order=1, GroupName="Parameters")]
public int HighOffset
{ get; set; }

[NinjaScriptProperty]
[Range(1, int.MaxValue)]
[Display(Name="LowOffset", Order=2, GroupName="Parameters")]
public int LowOffset
{ get; set; }

Is there any way to allow decimals in the parameters so that I can use this indicator on markets with decimals in the price (eg. ES, NQ)?

Thank you in advance for your reply!

The problem for you is that HighOffset and LowOffset variables are defined as integers. Change them to doubles and you will be golden.

Hello GLFX005,

Thank you for your post.

You're declaring those as being int variables. You want to use a double instead:

        [NinjaScriptProperty]
        [Range(1, double.MaxValue)]
        [Display(Name="HighOffset", Order=1, GroupName="Parameters")]
        public double HighOffset
        { get; set; }

        [NinjaScriptProperty]
        [Range(1, double.MaxValue)]
        [Display(Name="LowOffset", Order=1, GroupName="Parameters")]
        public double LowOffset
        { get; set; }

Please let us know if we may be of further assistance to you.

Hello Kate, thank you for your reply.

I have applied the changes to my script and I am now able to use decimals. However, I am still not able to use something that is less than 1, like "0.50". The "1.50" does work.
Can this be resolved?

I'm looking forward to your reply.

Hello GLFX005,

Thank you for your reply.

That's my error - change this line:

        [Range(1, double.MaxValue)]

To:

        [Range(0.01, double.MaxValue)]

For both. This way you can use values less than 1. Please let us know if we may be of further assistance to you.
