Using Swing indicator within an indicator

[Auxtin Maquieyra]

Hello, im trying to use Swing indicator to do divergences with MACD. How can I access the Swing indicator ? Im trying with this (with all the parameters in...) and is not working

double hswing0=Swing(ISeries<double> input, int strength).SwingHigh(int barsAgo, 1, int lookBackPeriod) ;

Thanks in advance.

Hello Auxtin Maquieyra,

Thank you for your note.

To reference the swing indicator and the swing high, you could use the following,

Swing(Close, 5).SwingHigh[0];

You could also see the example at the following link,

https://ninjatrader.com/support/helpGuides/nt8/en-us/?swing.htm

I would suggest opening a Strategy Builder under Control Center>New >Strategy Builder, and under the Conditions section of the builder, set up a condition using the swing indicator. You could then click the unlock code button in the builder to see how the strategy builder referenced the swing indicator. I provided a screen shot of how you could go about this.

Please let us know if you need further assistance.

Hi,
well it's working for me:
this is mcde feed by swing:

Print (".mcde feed by swing..=" + MACD(Swing(10).SwingHigh, 12, 26, 9)[0]);
this one bellow, swing feed by swing for example
Print ("..swing feed by swing..=" + Swing(Swing(10).SwingHigh, 100).SwingHigh[0]);
more working examples feed by swings:
Print(string.Format("{0} | SMA of SwingHigh: {1}", Time[0], SMA(Swing(10).SwingHigh, 100)[0]));
but don't get too confortable with this, some indicators will not work with feed by swing,
so double MACD(Swing(10).SwingHigh, 12, 26, 9)[0]; for you, should work
