2 CCI-MA for crossover signals

[ttttt1]

Hey guys, need some help.

I am complete coding newbie, tried to code using "indicator on indicator" section of the "Help" file in NT but couldn't get it to work.

What I want is that, on the same indicator, a SMA(y periods) of CCI(x periods) and a SMA(z periods) of CCI(x) periods.

E.g a 10SMA of CCI(14) and 5SMA of CCI(14) so that I can use the crossover of these as signals. Those are just example numbers, I'd like them to be changable so I can have different settings for different time periods.

Anyone able to help?

#region Variables

privateint cCIperiod2 = 13;
privateint avgLength1 = 5;
privateint avgLength2 = 10;
#endregion
protectedoverridevoid Initialize()
{
Add(new Plot(Color.FromKnownColor(KnownColor.Lime), PlotStyle.Line, "Plot0"));
Add(new Plot(Color.FromKnownColor(KnownColor.Red), PlotStyle.Line, "Plot1"));
Add(new Plot(Color.FromKnownColor(KnownColor.Black), PlotStyle.Line, "Plot3"));
Add(new Plot(Color.FromKnownColor(KnownColor.Black), PlotStyle.Line, "Plot4"));

}

protectedoverridevoid OnBarUpdate()
{
Plot0.Set((SMA(CCI(CCIperiod1), AvgLength1)[0]));
Plot1.Set((SMA(CCI(CCIperiod2), AvgLength2)[0]));
Plot3.Set(100);
Plot4.Set(-100);
}

Hey thanks for the reply, but I'm not sure where to insert that code.

I tried to paste the code into where I believed were the relevent areas but I just received a load of errors.

I'd really appreciate a layman's guide/step by step of how to do this if you have the time.

Either way, thanks for the input!

Hi ttttt1,

I would suggest you first work yourself through the different tutorials before attempting your custom code project, this way you get a good overview and get also used to the synthax - http://www.ninjatrader-support.com/H...verview18.html

Then you can use your already started code snippet and debug by doubleclicking on each error that you get...

For an example of how a CCI Moving Average can be coded, see this link from our sharing section please - http://www.ninjatrader-support2.com/...rch=CCI&desc=1

Please see also this thread here on how to resolve NinjaScript programming errors you may encounter - http://www.ninjatrader-support2.com/...ead.php?t=4678

Have a great weekend!
