Hi, I am working with the crossfrombelow function. So what happens is the previous cell was 0, the current value is -14 which for me triggers a sell signal, now the value drops to -83. What I want to do in intrabar is monitor if the value climbs back above -80 how I am doing it is crossfrombelow(O3,-80) but it does not trigger when it crosses that point. and also I can't use crossfrombelow(O3:O4, -80) because the previous value was 0 Any ideas of how to tackle this problem? |

The CROSSFROMBELOW function requires two ranges, and the minimum range is the previous bar. It cannot compare two values in the same bar. Here's the documentation: http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?l=doc/doc_WorksheetFunctions.html#AvailableFunctions One possible way to tackle the problem would be to add a shorter timeframe chart that uses the CROSSFROMBELOW function, and then use the Study/Price Overlay study to bring it to the longer timeframe chart. |
