converting an indicator from another platform
08 Mar 2021, 14:58


Dear Panagiotis,

thank you very much for all your former support!

I want to convert and publish an indicator from TradingView to cTrader, and have the following stements there:

 

price = input(close, "Period") and 

mma = ma(mmaMode, price * 1000, mmaLength)

Now my question: How do I convert this to c# for cTrader?

I can use Bars.ClosePrice as source, but I don't  the part with "price * 1000"

Can I ask you to point me in the right direction,

 

Kindest regards,

Hi xabbu,

You could consider creating a new indicator that will return as a result the value of ClosePrice * 1000 and use that as an input to the MA.

Thank you Panagiotis,

I have done so with success and, as promised, I have published the TDFI indicator,new for cTrader - but wellknown on other platforms. I would be very happy if you have the time, take a look and let me know if and how I can improve it for me and the cTrader community. Kindest regards,
