Method Detail

getWickPrice

Double getWickPrice()

The Wick or Tail gives additional information of the market movement during the drawing of any individual line. Line Break charts use session length (time aggregated data, e.g. Period.ONE_MIN). After the current session (e.g. Period.ONE_MIN) is finished, we take one price from that session (which price depends on CreationPoint) and create (if possible) the next Line Break line. If the price of the current session didn't create a new line, then it makes a wick for next line. Bearish lines can have wicks only on top of them and bullish lines only on bottom.

Returns:

wick price

getTurnaroundPrice

Double getTurnaroundPrice()

According to change a trend for a next line, the current price must exceed the turnaround price. Turnaround price depends on the chosen LineBreakLookback} value. E.g. if we use LineBreakLookback.THREE_LINES, then the turnaround price is determined according to the last three lines.

Returns:

turnaround price

isRising

Boolean isRising()

Provides an information about the trend of the line.

Returns:

true (bullish) or false (bearish)
