How to add RSI indicator in Strategy in NinjaTrader8

[williamzz]

Dear Team!

I want add a condition :RSI >70 to my strategy.My logic is that,if the RSI is greater than 70,short will be triggered.

I tried this way:

if (State == State.DataLoaded)
{
AddChartIndicator(RSI(14, 1));
}


private void SetEntrySignal()
{
if (CrossAbove(RSI(14, 1), 30, 1))

{
_enterShort = Close[0] < Open[0];
_enterShort &= Open[0] < Low[1];
}
}
I also tried this:

private void SetEntrySignal()
{
if (RSI(14, 1) > 70)
{ _enterShort = Close[0] < Open[0];
_enterShort &= Open[0] < Low[1];
}
}
But this still now work.Can you show me the correct way directly,I have read the document already ,but have no idea how to solve.Thank you so much!

Hello williamzz,

Thank you for your post.

It looks like you are trying to get the current value of Close[0], Open[0], and Low[1] inside your custom event method. If you need to obtain a value like Close[0] value outside of one of the core data event methods, you can use TriggerCustomEvent() to reliably synchronize the barAgo indexer to the current bar being updated. Please see the example from our help guide below:

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

Sorry,could you read my question again.now I've made it more clearly to read.What I need is adding RSI indicator to Strategy,not get the current value of Close[0], Open[0].I think TriggerCustomEvent is more complicated.I just need a logic that,if the value of the RSI is higher than 70 I will short it.So can you give me more advice .Really appreciate it!

Issue solved.Thanks!
