Custom event in button region and Swing()

[WalterSkinner]

Hello,

I have the following code outside of OnBarUpdate(), this is in OnMyButtonClick(). Because of this I believe I need to use TriggerCustomEvent(). I've used this in the past in this section with success but this time I have multiple data series and while debugging it looks like I need to change this code to point to the primary data series.

TriggerCustomEvent( o =>
{
     if(Swing(swingStrength).SwingHighBar(0, 1, CurrentBar) > 0 && Swing(swingStrength).SwingLowBar(0, 1, CurrentBar) > 0)
     {
          swingHiPrice = Highs[0][Swing(swingStrength).SwingHighBar(0, 1, CurrentBar)];
          barsSinceSwingHi = Swing[B](Highs[0][0],[/B] swingStrength).SwingHighBar(0, 1, CurrentBar);
     }
|

I'm also trying to use :

MAX(High, barsSinceSwingHi)[0] <= swingHiPrice

Does anyone know how I can make this change to the MAX() function and also the barsSinceSwingHi use of Swing()?

I was thinking that I could just pass Highs[0][0] into the bars since function but that doesn't seem to work.

Hi Walter, thanks for writing in.

The MAX and Swing will take a Series object. Passing the first Highs array like this:

swingHiPrice = Highs[0][Swing([B]Highs[0][/B], swingStrength).SwingHighBar(0, 1, CurrentBar)];
barsSinceSwingHi = Swing[B]([/B][B]Highs[0][/B][B],[/B] swingStrength).SwingHighBar(0, 1, CurrentBar);

]

For MAX:

MAX(Highs[0], barsSinceSwingHi)[0] <= swingHiPrice

Kind regards,
-ChrisL

Thank you so much that is exactly what I was looking for!
