I wanted to program algorithm using a trend line. It might not as simple as just crossover moving average, but as an example:
you can code crossover a SMA line like this:
crossover(close, sma(close, 50))
but how can I code crossover a trend line?
lineInstance = .. // define a trend line
crossover(close, lineInstance)
crossover(close[1], lineInstance[1])
.. and more tricky algorithm using the trend line instance
Is this not possible, or do you have an idea? Thanks.
Are you using line.new
function to define the lineInstance
variable?
If yes, you can use line.get_price(id, x)
function to get the current y-value of the line object, and then pass it to crossover
function.
currentLineValue = line.get_price(lineInstance, 0)
priceCrossUpLine = crossover(close, currentLineValue)
Thanks, this should be worked. I encountered an another issue relating to this issue so if you don't mind I appreciate your help there too. stackoverflow.com/questions/65510011/…
