Zigzag values

[tkaboris]

I am having issue with printing lowbar. I believe the syntax is not right.
Print("The high of the zigzag bar is " + High[Math.Max(0, ZigZag(DeviationType.Points, 0.5, false).HighBar(0, 1, 100))]);
Print("The low of the zigzag bar is " + Low[Math.Min(0, ZigZag(DeviationType.Points, 0.5, false).LowBar(0, 1, 100))]);

Hello tkaboris,

Print("The low of the zigzag bar is " + Low[Math.Max(0, ZigZag(DeviationType.Points, 0.5, false).LowBar(0, 1, 100))]);

The Math.Max(0, barsAgoValue) is to ensure that the index returned is not negative, which would be an invalid index.

thank you
how do i find high bar length in price level, not in number of points?
In my condition i want to specify that Close[0] > Hbarlength (price level)
I attached a screenshot to find what i am looking for.

double HBar = High[Math.Max(0, ZigZag(DeviationType.Points, 0.5, false).HighBar(0, 1, 100))];
double HBarPrev = High[Math.Max(0, ZigZag(DeviationType.Points, 0.5, false).HighBar(0, 2, 100))];
double LBar = Low[Math.Max(0, ZigZag(DeviationType.Points, 0.5, false).LowBar(0, 1, 100))];
double LBarPrev = Low[Math.Max(0, ZigZag(DeviationType.Points, 0.5, false).LowBar(0, 2, 100))];
double Hbarlength = Math.Abs(HBar - LBar) / 2;

Hello tkaboris,

"how do i find high bar length in price level, not in number of points"

You are asking for length as in number of bars, but expressed as a price?

Or you are asking for the height as in High minus Low?

The value circled on your screenshot does not appear to be a length but appears to be the price a few ticks below the bar.

Are you asking how many bars it is between each HighBar and LowBar?

i am asking to find a middle of the bullish zigzag leg in price value, not points as was pointed in screenshot.

Hello tkaboris,

So the most recent High/Low bar number minus the previous High/Low bar number then divided by 2?

[tkaboris]

yes thats what i am looking for

Hello,

// if the last direction change was a highbar
if (ZigZag(DeviationType.Points, 0.5, false).HighBar(0, 1, 100) < ZigZag(DeviationType.Points, 0.5, false).LowBar(0, 1, 100))
{
// print the bar located at the absolute distance from the most recent high bar to the most recent low bar, then divide by 2
int distance = ( Math.Abs( ZigZag(DeviationType.Points, 0.5, false).HighBar(0, 1, 100) - ZigZag(DeviationType.Points, 0.5, false).LowBar(0, 1, 100) ) / 2 );
Print(Close[ Math.Max(0, ZigZag(DeviationType.Points, 0.5, false).HighBar(0, 1, 100) + distance ] ));
}
