Hello guys , I've seen that vjfx does not provide all the indicators and i would like to use MIN AND MAX indicator in in vjfx . Is there any way where it can be added or can be created for the .vfs ??? if yes! then plz do tell the step by step procedure to adding/creating it.

Hiya,

Assuming that MIN MAX indicator is retrieving the highest and lowest price out of a given number of candles (defined as period) I would go for a the attached pattern which will do the job. Currently the min and max values are retrieved from 9 and 26 candles respectively but feel free to change that from "Get Historical candles" block. It is also based on High and Low prices, if you need to work on Open and Close then you have to use the appropriate variables.

Hope this helps

cheers

Thank you for the attachment but where as i have a doubt i.e how to determine the period level in that indicator and while using the the indicator it has two assigned values like 9 and 26 which one to use for connecting to next block or how can i use them to connect next block i hope u got my point

Hi,

The time period in MINMAX indicator consists of the number of candles i.e in the previous attached example as you can see in "Get historical candles" block it is the candle amount. By the way, this pattern is enhanced to retrieve high and lows from 2 set of candles in the same time, this means that you have 2 MINMAX working in parallel on 9 and on 26. If you need only one then simply delete one of the parts and set your candle amount (indicator period) to what you need.

To move forward:

hello , ive tried using the indicator which u send me but still i have problem connecting the block to use them up , i cant able to actually able to figure it out in using it and making the time period in it .what actually i was trying to create is a crossover strategy but its really hard for me to use this indicator in this way . can i able to get a simplified version of it like how the indicators as sma ,tmea etc. or an u explain in detail how i can use it for creating crossover stratgy

Hi,

In the attached example, you have your MinMax values out of the 9 previous candles. If you need to change the value 9 you can do it from the 'Get Historical candles' block and click on 'Candle amount' field and type in the number of candles needed. Candle's period is defined in the default variables section in the left side, right click on it and edit to change.

When you run the strategy, you can see the highest9 and lowest9 updated accordingly. These are the values of your MINMAX indicator.

Cheers

Hi;


Following your request, we added minmax indicator to the current version. Available under "Mathematical" subsection.
You don't need to bother anymore with the above pattern although it can be useful for some other programming aspects.
Enjoy !

So thank you it really makes my work East thank once again
