Using ray in a cross?

[ohowie]

I noticed I won the most online here so thanks for the help and I will keep it short. Is it possible to use a Ray drawn and tagged by a strategy in crossabove/below?
Thanks a mill,
Howie

Not sure I follow, but a strategy can create a Ray object and paint in on chart.

Hi Dierk,
Understood. Is there a way to test a crossover i.e. CrossAbove(Close,MYRAYNAME,1) ?
Thank you

Sorry not sure I follow. MYRAYNAME needed to be a data series. Is it?

[ohowie]

MYRAYNAME would be the ray created and drawn by the strategy. I would like to trap as a signal to trade the crossing of the Close and the Ray created and drawn by the strategy.

I see. Unfortunately this is not supported. A ray is just a drawing object and not a data series which you would need for your calcs.

You could check out the Automatic Trend Line Detection indicator I coded. Its located in the NinjaScript File Sharing section. If my memory serves me correctly, I calculate the trend line and draw a ray and I then have code that detects when there is a cross of that ray by price.
