Angle of tangent line to SMA
05 Mar 2014, 14:45

I'm trying to find out how to get the angel of the SMA slope, but my problem is that it's hard to find what the x-coordinate should be because they don't have a pip value like the y-coordinate does . Any suggestions on how I can do this

Her is the code i have tried:

protected override void OnStart()
   {
       double y = 1;//SMA LastValue difference to last bar.

       double x = 1;// Don't know :/

       var rad = Math.Atan(y / x);

       var deg = rad * 180 / Math.PI;

       Print(deg);
   }

Probably for Y difference you need to take SMA.Result.Last(0) - SMA.Result.Last(1), and X difference equals to 1, because X is index.

I think if I were to calculate the angle like the Ray chart tool I will need to know the scale to see the distanse in pips one hour is equal to.

Are there any ways to do that ?

You are right. In order to calculate an angle you need to obtain the chart scale. There is no way to get chart scale at the moment.
