Hi again Dukascopy team,

Hope all is well.

Thank you kindly for responding to my query yesterday, much appreciated.

I have another query regarding fractals.

From the Dukascopy API the call for fractal is

fractal(Instrument, Period, OfferSide, int, int)

The attached screenshot shows a chart where the fractal appears with settings of "Number of bars on sides =2"

How can code above provide me with the Maximum or Minimum at this time?

Best Regards,

Gerald

The method you refer to is for use with shift. Since shift of max/min values is undeterministic (it might vary how far is the last max or min), it is more convenient to use indicator calls that return value arrays. So you can apply the same type of method calls as with Stochastic indicator (either by time interval or by candle interval).

If you just want to print the values, have a look at the following example:

instead of bbands, make a fractal call and of course change the optional input values.
