Hi,

how can I color-code moving average ( or any indicator that is drawn on the chart) so the line would change color if the current value is lower then the previous one and vice verse. Using two outputs with different colors gives a bad result.

Hi,
you can correct your indicator to have output as you described. To eliminate gaps between lines use the
OutputParameterInfo.setGapAtNaN(). To eliminate a line falling down to 0, use the Double.NaN instead of 0.

Thanks for the info.

Note: OutputParameterInfo.setGapAtNaN() will not eliminate gaps. It will draw a gap when the output is NaN.
This is how it looks:


The problem is that for the line to be draw there must be two points. Since for the first candle that changes color there is only one point for that output that line won't be drawn. If I set OutputParameterInfo.DrawingStyle.DOTS it will draw correctly but I would like to know if there is a workaround for the LINE?

Yes, there is. You can implement an IDrawingIndicator interface and use the drawOutput method.

Hi Support,

can you please provide a simple indicator example which shows how to implement the IDrawingIndicator interface - a moving average line which is green if current value is greater than previous value and red if current value is lower than previous value ?

Thanks and regards

IDrawingIndicator is meant to be used for drawing custom drawings/objects that are not supported by default implementation. As examples of use of the IDrawingIndicator see sources for:
com.dukascopy.indicators.IchimokuIndicator
com.dukascopy.indicators.GatorIndicator
com.dukascopy.indicators.HekinAshiIndicator
and other indicators that implement IDrawingIndicator. Find the sources in Standalone API: https://www.dukascopy.com/wiki/index.php ... in_Eclipse
