I'm trying to make a function that would buy/sell the current asset/symbol if another symbol has gone up (or down) over two time periods.

But I'm not sure how to create an input for another symbol and get it's data?
How would I go about doing this?

Thanks in advance!

CreativelyChris,

depending on your setup the easiest approach might be to use a second datastream on you chart and reference this in your code. When you have two datastreams on a chart you can obtain values for the second datastream for example using Close of Data2 (or Close Data2 for short as the "of" is optional).

Regards,

ABCTG
