Hi,

I am working on a predictive indicator that I would like to test. Basically I would like to be able to draw a chart line that includes data points ahead of the current bar.

Eg, if I have an Indicator that simply returns the close price, this will always display a chart output with the leading edge having the same time stamp as the current bar. My indicator predicts the future x step (eg for 10 min data it predicts the next 10 min bar data in advance) so I need to draw the indicator result 1 time step ahead of the current bar time.

I cannot seem to do this in jforex as I always get index out of bounds errors, can you tell me if it is supported?

Many thanks.

perhaps you can use the shift-parameter of the OutputParameterInfo with e.g. +1 to move your indicator 1 step
forward.

Ok, thanks, I was looking in the wrong spot.

This example snippet will shift the output 2 bars ahead of the current bar.


public OptInputParameterInfo getOptInputParameterInfo(int index) {
if (index <= optInputParameterInfos.length) {

// move the output forward 2 bars
outputParameterInfos[index].setShift(2);

return optInputParameterInfos[index];
}
return null;
}
