Linear Regression Slope Indicator

[RideMe]

Hi,

I'm using the linear regression slope in a strategy I am building with strategy builder (code is locked). The data input series I am using for the Lin. Reg. Slope is based on the stochastic. When I plot this on a chart, it works fine, and the Data Box reflects appropriate data. However, when I use it in conditions for a strategy, it continually fails to identify when the conditions are met. I have used very simple conditions to trouble shoot, but it rarely identifies the condition. For instance, I'll use a simple condition such as the Lin. Reg. Slope (with stochastics data input) is rising, along with a couple other basic conditions, but it will enter a trade when the Lin Reg. Slope is falling, or it won't enter a trade at all even though it is very clear on the chart that all conditions are met.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you.

Hello RideMe,

Thanks for your post.

The Linear Regression Slope indicator will return a double value.

IsRising is a bool variable that returns a value of true or false.

When using IsRising in the Strategy Builder, you could pass in the Linear Regression Slope indicator for the IsRising 'Series1' property.

This reference sample from the help guide that demonstrates using IsRising and IsFalling conditions in the Strategy Builder: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...sfalling_c.htm
