Hi, On the charts, when I use an MA, I have it configured so it changes color in accordance with its slope. If I am using that MA in a custom study of mine, how do I identify the slope (+/-) using ACSIL please? Thanks K |

This is how you can do it with the Last (Close) price. Substitute your MA array as needed. int slope = 0;
float Current = sc.BaseDataIn[SC_LAST][sc.Index]; float Previous = sc.BaseDataIn[SC_LAST][sc.Index - 1]; if(Current > Previous) slope = 1; else if (Current < Previous) slope = -1; Then you would switch between primary and secondary colors based on the value of slope. |
