SWAMI Average Indicator
09 Nov 2013, 00:46
using System;
using cAlgo.API;
using cAlgo.API.Internals;
using cAlgo.API.Indicators;
namespace cAlgo.Indicators
{
[Indicator(IsOverlay = false, TimeZone = TimeZones.UTC)]
public class RelativeStrengthSWAMI : Indicator
{
[Parameter(DefaultValue = 14)]
public int MaxLookback { get; set; }
[Parameter(DefaultValue = 2)]
public int MinLookback { get; set; }
[Output("Main")]
public IndicatorDataSeries Result { get; set; }
private RelativeStrengthIndex RSIValue;
public override void Calculate(int index)
{
int Period = MaxLookback - MinLookback + 1;
double TotalSum = ReturnSum(index);
Result[index] = TotalSum / Period;
}
public double ReturnSum(int argIndex)
{
double Sum = 0.0;
for (int i = MinLookback; i <= MaxLookback; i++)
{
RSIValue = Indicators.RelativeStrengthIndex(MarketSeries.Close, i);
Sum += RSIValue.Result[argIndex];
}
return Sum;
}
}
}
Could someone take a look at this code? It's not returning a value.
Basically I want to retrieve the relative strength values of multiple lookback periods and take the average. Right now I am not getting anything.
Any help would be great, thanks!

Yes I understand you could do that. I don't think that would serve its purpose in this code.

I'm not 100% sure about this but I think you can only initialize indicators in the Initialize method.
