Hi Guys,

I am quite new to this and was just trying to get the MACD value using the following code but unfortunately when I check against the Demo graph from the "https://www.dukascopy.com/client/demo/jclient/jforex.jnlp" the values dont match up.

public void onBar(Instrument instrument, Period period, IBar askBar, IBar bidBar) {
       console.getOut().println("Before");
      try {
         String DATE_FORMAT_NOW = "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss";
         Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();
          SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat(DATE_FORMAT_NOW);


         double [] macd0= indicators.macd(instrument, Period.ONE_MIN, OfferSide.BID, IIndicators.AppliedPrice.MEDIAN_PRICE, 12, 26, 9, 0) ;
           double macd=macd0[0];
           DecimalFormat df = new DecimalFormat("#.#######");
           console.getOut().println("MACD=" + df.format(macd) + " Time = " + sdf.format(bidBar.getTime()));

         
      } catch (JFException e) {
         // TODO Auto-generated catch block
         e.printStackTrace();
      }
      
    }

Please advise what I am doing wrong.

Thank you for your time in advance.

All I am trying to do is print out the MACD value, MACD signal value and MACD hist value as shown on the chart for a given currency.

The value I am getting back from the server do not match up with the one in the demo chart.

Can some one please help me with this.

Any help would be appreciated.

You should add filtration by instrument and set the correct Timezone for your SimpleDateFormat object, have a look at the following:

...
public void onBar(Instrument instrument, Period period, IBar askBar, IBar bidBar) throws JFException {        
  if (!instrument.equals(Instrument.EURUSD) || !period.equals(Period.ONE_MIN)) {
    return;
  }
...
  SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat(DATE_FORMAT_NOW);
  sdf.setTimeZone(TimeZone.getTimeZone("GMT"));
...
