DiscontinuousLine and Points
DiscontinuousLine and Points
13 Nov 2013, 17:36
My indicator draws a DiscontinuousLine. Each lines ends in a Point, marking to trade, or not to trade, because that is the question.
Now my robot should act on that line, but the question is: what is de value of a DiscontinuousLine or Point if there is none drawn by the indicator for that specific bar or tick?

Correction
Testing proved me wrong. the value is NaN if not drawn, but somehow, it remains NaN if a line is drawn afterwards, like in this example
public override void Calculate(int index)
{
....
stepsback = index - 4;
for (int x = stepsback; x <= index; x++)
{
drawDisLine(x, value_Y);
}
}
Here the value when tested remains NaN for the first 4 steps, only the step with x=index has a numeric value, while the line is actually visible for all 5 steps.
So drawing a line afterwards, gives an ambiguous result: visible but not valid.

Addition
In addition to the question: is there a way to establish if a DiscontinuousLine or Point is drawn or not?
