Help with Easy Language

the line I posted above is not a code {If data2(60min chart) Close> Average then begin} the stuff in the parnatheses is not part of the code.

 

 

so lets say you want to reference data2 close of 1 bar ago, you would say.

 

data2 close[1]

 

data2 close of 1 bar ago, you would say.

 

data2 close

 

so lets say you want to reference data2 close of 1 bar ago when its greater Then 9 moving average, you would say.

 

If data2 close[1]> data2 average(close,9)[1] then.....bla bla bla ....just wanted to give you some examples.

 

Two ways to learn; get some books or take some EL classes...the third way is to open some/all your built in TS codes(stategy or indicator) and read them until they make sense to you. (you can do that by going into-- File--> open easylanguage document)

 

By the way because I dont do much programming thus, my EL skills are not so hot , Infact very baisc. I will let other with more experience help you in the future.

 

GoodLuck

data2 close

 

 

correction...

 

just noticed this error on my part.

 

If you want to reference data2 close (of most corrent bar that has completed) you would say.

 

data2 close

I am working on a strategy for Open E cry. I have the beginning but I am having trouble writing my next step. I want it to say

 

"when price moves above moving average X sell second bar"

 

If you could help that would be great or send me a PM.

 

Thanks

I guess that what you are looking for is:

 

Inputs: x(9);

vars: MAValue(0);

 

MAValue = Average (Close, x);

 

If close crosses below MAValue then sellshort next bar at market;

I have written some code with a friends help. But it compiles, but will not back test. (shows no trades)

 

I am wondering if anyone would be willing to do a little mentoring via email with me.
