vol max and min

[imalil]

If I use a SMA, (SMA(myVar, period)[0]); on volume, is it possible to then see the max and min volume during this period?

If so, can I get a syntax example?

Thank you.

Hello imalil,

Thanks for your post.

The SMA would not provide for a Minimum and Maximum over its period but the average value of the period.

To determine a Minimum and Maximum over a period you would use the MIN() and MAX() methods.

For example:

double minVolume = MIN(Volume, 10)[0]; // Minimum volume in 10 bar lookback
double maxVolume = MAX(Volume, 10)[0]; // Maximum volume in 10 bar lookback

Thanks, Paul.

I posted on NT8 forum. You linked a NT7 answer. Are they exactly the same?

Hello imalil,

Thanks for your reply.

The examples and syntax are the same.

I will edit my first post with the correct links for NT8. Thank-you
