[Programming Help] - Trouble evaluating MACD values at previous closes
View Count: 643

The title says it all. I want to evaluate MACD difference value at prior 15min bar closes. I want to save those into variables such as MACDDIFF1 MACDDIFF2 MACDDIFF3. I have been working with this code block provided by SC: sc.MACD(sc.BaseData[SC_LAST], sc.Subgraph[0], 5, 10, 10, MOVAVGTYPE_SIMPLE); //Access the individual lines float MACD = sc.Subgraph[0][sc.Index]; //Access the study value at the current index float MACDMovingAverage = sc.Subgraph[0].Arrays[2][sc.Index]; float MACDDifference = sc.Subgraph[0].Arrays[3][sc.Index]; //Copy to Visible Subgraphs sc.Subgraph[1][sc.Index] = MACDMovingAverage; sc.Subgraph[2][sc.Index] = MACDDifference; So, what I have tried to do to evaluate the previous values of the MACD difference at previous 15min closes is float MACDDifference = sc.Subgraph[0].Arrays[3][sc.Index]; float MACDDifference1 = sc.Subgraph[0].Arrays[3][sc.Index-1]; float MACDDifference2 = sc.Subgraph[0].Arrays[3][sc.Index-2]; The sc.Index-1, sc.Index-2, ect. does not seem to work. I have tried using SC_LAST or sc.Close and someother things. Please illuminate some light on what I am doing wrong. Thank you so much. On another note, I have to say thanks to SC for providing all of this functionality at such a low cost... wow, I have searched for a long time to find something like this, and got really lucky to stumble across SC! |

Hello, can someone at least please confirm that from the above code float MACDDifference1 = sc.Subgraph[0].Arrays[3][sc.Index-1] would have the value of the MACD difference at the close of the last bar that has closed?

This is generally correct. Understand that sc.Index during a full recalculation starts off at zero and goes up to the sc.ArraySize -1.
