Dear jalmir.coelho@gmail.com,

Thanks for posting in the forum. You can call these indicators from your cBot and check whenever they cross each other. Check our example cBots (e.g. Sample Trend cBot) to see how to access an indicator from a cBot. Also the following functions might be helpful for you

Hi again,

You might try something like the following

           // Get the On Balance Volume indicator
            var onBalance = Indicators.OnBalanceVolume(MarketSeries.Median);
            //Get the exponential moving averages for the On Balance Volume indicator
            var ema10 = Indicators.ExponentialMovingAverage(onBalance.Result, 10);
            var ema14 = Indicators.ExponentialMovingAverage(onBalance.Result, 14);
            
            //Check if exponential moving averages cross each other
            if(ema10.Result.HasCrossedAbove(ema14.Result,5))
            {
                //Do something
            }
            
            if(ema10.Result.HasCrossedBelow(ema14.Result,5))
            {
                //Do something
            }
