Stochastic Indicators when lines crossing

Hi Kaworu,

Let's suppose you have a Stochastic Oscillator

private StochasticOscillator _so;

You can a check like the below

_so.PercentK.HasCrossedBelow(_so.PercentD,1);

If you want to check the last value of the D line, then you can use the following property

_so.PercentD.LastValue

Let me know if the above is helpful.

Best Regards,

in the periods parameter of HasCrossedBelow, why should it be 1 instead of the periods of K?

Hi Kaworu,

This is just a sample. 1 represents the number of periods for which the check will take place. You can put any number you want.

im not getting the correct results from my simulation and it still takes a trade well below the 20 line of the indicator regardless of what value i put in it.

which method should i use in order for me to check the current value of the lines inside the indicator? not the current price of the symbol but the value inside indicator?

what im trying to accomplish is i need to check if the lines are below 20 in the Stochastic Indicator and when the D line crossed aboved the K line.

thanks for your help so far

You can use the LastValue property of each IndicatorDataSeries.
