Hello, I found this code on other language from an indicator based on Andrew Abraham indictor developed in the Trading the Trend article of TASC September 1998
Looks really simple in code, get the atr1 input to use it on wma and then multiply it and add or substract from the highest or low value of a number of bars (lenght) then finish with comparing with the close price of last candle. I had developed some strategies on java and visual jforex. Despite some dificulties, its relative intuitive but with indicators I still dont get how to code them and the information in wiki and examples aren't really helping me. How can I find information to code this? Thanks
Length = input(21, minval=1),
Multiplier = input(3, minval=1)
avgTR = wma(atr(1), Length)
highestC = highest(Length)
lowestC = lowest(Length)
hiLimit = highestC[1]-(avgTR[1] * Multiplier)
loLimit = lowestC[1]+(avgTR[1] * Multiplier)
ret = if(close > hiLimit and close > loLimit, hiLimit,
if(close < loLimit and close < hiLimit, loLimit, nz(ret[1], 0)))
plot(ret, color= blue )

Hi,
Did you tried to build this code using visual Jforex so far?
Can you please post your what you did so far and let us know at which level you are blocked?
Thanks

To be honest I tried to but got completely lost because I don't really understand the indicator coding. Theres not many information on wiki page, just 4 pages and then a few especific examples and no one helps me. I didn't know I can code this in visual jforex, how can I find information on how code indicators on visual jforex? I always thought this was only for strategies. I will still try to code it on jforex (java) and try to send a code, but it well be hard because I still dont understand it.  thanks

Hi, Well using Visual Jforex it is not possible to do the following: avgTR = wma(atr(1), Length) As an indicator block has a specified drop-down list for its calculation method:  I believe it is better to code using Java language if you can do it otherwise you can ask your question into the automated trading forum: viewforum.php?f=89Thanks !
