Display 2 days on one chart

[morrnel]

Hello
I wish to display current EMA and yesterday EMA for the same time period.

EMA(int period)[int barsAgo]
EMA(ISeries<double> input, int period)[int barsAgo]

If I have a 5 minute bar, I have 288 in a day. barsAgo =288 except it doesn't work on Monday.

The magic is to calculate barsAgo for for same time previous trading day. Holidays make it dicy too.

Ideas, suggestions?

Thanks

Hello morrnel,

That would require some logic to do, as you mentioned there would be some items to account for like holidays. You could use the GetBar method which takes a time. The time could be Time[0] minus a day.

A barsago value is returned if the bar is found. This would be where some logic would be needed to make sure a positive bars ago was found.

You would could then use the BarsAgo with the EMA.
