How hard is it to write a simple RSI indicator? I want to return the value of the RSI and display it as a number at the top of my chart without the graphical representation. I have zero knowledge of how to write ctrader bots / indicators.
I can't seem to find what I'm looking for by searching, so looks like i need to learn the API and write my own but i have no idea where to start.
I have no knowledge of C#, just know Javascript, but id rather just use someones elses code rather than learning a new language and a new API for what seems like it would be a few lines of code.
Does anyone know if this is possible or should i just start learning?
Thanks in advance!

Hi oneb700d@gmail.com,
Is this what you are looking for?
using System; using System.Linq; using cAlgo.API; using cAlgo.API.Indicators; using cAlgo.API.Internals; using cAlgo.Indicators; namespace cAlgo.Robots { [Robot(TimeZone = TimeZones.UTC, AccessRights = AccessRights.None)] public class NewcBot : Robot { RelativeStrengthIndex _rsi; protected override void OnStart() { _rsi = Indicators.RelativeStrengthIndex(MarketSeries.Close, 14); } protected override void OnTick() { Chart.DrawText("RSI", _rsi.Result.LastValue.ToString(), Server.Time, Symbol.Ask, Color.Red); } protected override void OnStop() { // Put your deinitialization logic here } } }Best Regards,

Hi oneb700d@gmail.com,
The code was written with the new version of the API, 3.01. Have you tried it on Spotware cTrader Public Beta?

I manged to get it working and that is exactly what i want, but not as a bot! Is it possible to just do that sort of thing without a bot? and just an indicator on its own?
Thanks again, sorry for being a pain.

Hi,
Here is the indicator equivalent
using System; using cAlgo.API; using cAlgo.API.Internals; using cAlgo.API.Indicators; using cAlgo.Indicators; namespace cAlgo { [Indicator(IsOverlay = true, TimeZone = TimeZones.UTC, AccessRights = AccessRights.None)] public class NewIndicator : Indicator { RelativeStrengthIndex _rsi; protected override void Initialize() { _rsi = Indicators.RelativeStrengthIndex(MarketSeries.Close, 14); } public override void Calculate(int index) { Chart.DrawText("RSI", _rsi.Result.LastValue.ToString(), Server.Time, Symbol.Ask, Color.Red); } } }
