Description
Comes with source code.
An indicator that monitors two input DataSeries for a crossover.
Designed to be used as a building block in other indicators and cBots.
Inputs:
- Bullish Series: The bullish dataseries source
- Bearish Series: The bearish dataseries source
Outputs:
- Signal: Will be 1 if the bullish and bearish series have crossed within the last bar, zero otherwise.
- SignalEnv: 1 if the bullish series is above the bearish, -1 if the bearish is above the bullish.
- DaysSinceLastSignal: The number of bars since the last crossover of the series.
Can be used (for example) in a moving average crossover: setting 5-day MA as the bullish series, and 10-day MA as the bearish series.
When the 5-day crosses the 10-day the “Signal” output gives a value of 1 (0 otherwise), and resets the “Days Since Last Signal” attribute to zero. The SignalEnv is +1 for bullish (ie the 5-day is above the 10-day), and -1 for bearish (5-day is below the 10-day).
A simple MA-crossover strategy would be to trade in the direction of the SignalEnv every time Signal is 1.
