Extending Indi

[BIG1RED9 10]

Hope I can get some help with this...

 

Trying to expend indicator past the current bar(see pic). It is like a trend line, but instead of swinghigh / swinglow, it uses the current close and the close of "X" bars back None of the bars between.

 

in any of these Easy Language, MultiCharts Net or Strategy Trader C

 

Appreciate it!

In base Easy Language (ie non 'OO') the best way is to plot an extension is by actually using a trendline that starts at the current bar indicator value and ends one (or more) bars ahead at the projected 'regressions' of the [1] and [0] indicator value

   cId = TL_New( date[ 1 ], time[ 1 ], nl[ 1 ], date, time, nl[0] ) ; 

   TL_SetBegin(cId, Date, time, nl[0] ); 
   TL_SetEnd (cId, date, CalcTime(time, BarInterval), nl[0] + (nl[0] - nl[1]));

 

where nl is the plotted indicator value

and

(nl[0] + (nl[0] - nl[1])) does the one bar projection calculation to the pricepoint where the extended one bar TL ends...

 

Have a great weekend all...

ZDO,

 

Thanks... however if I understand you...

 

I made a test indi..

 

TL_New(date[1], time[1], c[1], date, time, c[0] ) ;

 

TL_SetBegin(0, Date, time, c[0] );

TL_SetEnd (0, date, CalcTime(time, BarInterval), c[0] + (c[0] - c[1]));

 

Does not plot forward.

 

Thank you!
