Standard deviation

[U0000999]

Hello I need to calculate standard deviation on EMA indicator, how to do this?

Hello U0000999,

The standard deviation indicator takes other indicators as input, for example:

double value = StdDev(EMA(12), 20)[0];

Thank you very much, but I'm not a programmer. Where I should place it?

Hello U0000999,

Below is a link to a forum post with helpful resources on getting started with C# and NinjaScript and includes links to training videos.

Where are you trying to use this value?

Have you created a custom indicator and are setting this as the plot value?

If so, the code would be placed in OnBarUpdate().

I recommend you to connect Ninja C# code with chat GPT, it will be much quicker to develop, what we need.

Hello U0000999,

While the chatgpt tool can general valid C# code in some cases it is not currently able to generate 100% accurate code, learning C# is the correct approach here because we cannot debug generated chatgpt code that you may create. You would still need to be able to figure out any problems or write the code yourself to make sure it both works and does what you ask of the code. At this time it is counter productive to try and use that tool for NinjaScript.
