Display Daily SMA within Renko chart

May 2nd, 2012, 06:43 PM

The code below works fine with minutes chart that will display the daily 20 SMA with no problem.
Unfortunately, once i switch to Renko or Range chart, it's gone. Anyone can help, please.

Code

                            
protected override void Initialize()

        {

            Add(PeriodType.Day, 1);

            Add(new Plot(Color.FromKnownColor(KnownColor.Orange), PlotStyle.Line, "Plot0"));

            Overlay                = true;

        }



        /// <summary>

        /// Called on each bar update event (incoming tick)

        /// </summary>

        protected override void OnBarUpdate()

        {

            // Use this method for calculating your indicator values. Assign a value to each

            // plot below by replacing 'Close[0]' with your own formula.

            

            if (CurrentBar < 30) return;

            

            if (BarsInProgress == 0){

                Plot0.Set(SMA(BarsArray[1],20)[0]);

            }

        }

try this sample code

Cory, your code displays the 20 SMA of the Renko bar.
What I want is to display the "DAILY 20 SMA" within a 4 Renko chart.

Thanks pal

I think I've done it before like

Code

protected override void Initialize()

        {

            Add(PeriodType.Day, 1);

            Add(new Plot(Color.FromKnownColor(KnownColor.Orange), PlotStyle.Line, "Plot0"));

            Overlay                = true;

        }



        /// <summary>

        /// Called on each bar update event (incoming tick)

        /// </summary>

        protected override void OnBarUpdate()

        {

            // Use this method for calculating your indicator values. Assign a value to each

            // plot below by replacing 'Close[0]' with your own formula.

            

            if (CurrentBar < 30) return;

            

            if (BarsInProgress == 0){

                Plot0.Set(SimpleMA);

            }

            if (BarsInProgress == 1){

                double SimpleMA = SMA(Closes[1],20)[0]);

            }


        }

It's been while though, so not sure if syntax is 100% correct or if it will make a difference even if it is, so anyone feel free to correct me, but it might be worth a try.

        private double SimpleMA=0;

        protected override void OnBarUpdate()

        {

            // Use this method for calculating your indicator values. Assign a value to each

            // plot below by replacing 'Close[0]' with your own formula.

            

            if (CurrentBar < 30) return;

            

            if (BarsInProgress == 0){

                if(SimpleMA!=0) Plot0.Set(SimpleMA);

            }

            if (BarsInProgress == 1){

                /*double*/ SimpleMA = SMA(Closes[1],20)[0]);

            }


        }

-> you need for this logic a "global variable"!
