Setting enum for selection of entry

[tkaboris]

HI i was wondering if you can help me.
I want to create an ENUM to select candle quarters and based on selection I want to assign doube value to
sweepLowEntry = quarterSelect;

It currently complains cant convert to double. I am not sure if i am doing right


private CandleQuarterEnum.CandleQuarterLevels quarterSelect = CandleQuarterEnum.CandleQuarterLevels.LowQuarter;

c = (High[0] - Low[0]) / 2 + Low[0];
p = (High[0] + Low[0] + Close[0]) / 3;
hq = (High[0] - c) / 2 + c;
lq = c - (High[0] - c) / 2;
switch (quarterSelect)
{

case CandleQuarterEnum.CandleQuarterLevels.Center:
{
Value[0] = c;
break;
}


case CandleQuarterEnum.CandleQuarterLevels.Pivot:
{
Value[0] = p;
break;
}


case CandleQuarterEnum.CandleQuarterLevels.LowQuarter:
{
Value[0] = lq;
break;
}


case CandleQuarterEnum.CandleQuarterLevels.HighQuarter:
{
Value[0] = hq;
break;
}
}

in my entry condition

if(........
)

{
currentBullRev = true;
sweepLowEntry = quarterSelect;
}


[NinjaScriptProperty]
[Display(GroupName = "Retrace", Description="Candle Quarter")]
public CandleQuarterEnum.CandleQuarterLevels QuarterSelect
{
get { return quarterSelect; }
set { quarterSelect = value; }
}

namespace CandleQuarterEnum
{
public enum CandleQuarterLevels
{
Center,
Pivot,
LowQuarter,
HighQuarter,
}
}

Hello tkaboris,

Be sure you have reviewed the reference sample demonstrating enums.
Help guide: NinjaScript > Educational Resources > Reference Samples > Indicator > Creating a user-defined parameter type (enum)


May I confirm the sweepLowEntry variable is declared as the type CandleQuarterEnum.CandleQuarterLevels?

I've tested the suggested code and I am finding this compiles without error.
Attached is an export.
