Hey guys, I do most of my work in R/Java and am new to ninjatrader. I am trying to write a simple ninjascript based on the DV2. I have wrote out the code, but it does not work properly. I am using yahoo historical pricing for my data. I have attached my script and would appreciate any pointers or tips about what is wrong with my script.

The DV2 indicator from ( Varadi?s RSI(2) Alternative: The DV(2) MarketSci Blog) is calculated as follows: (a) for each trading day calculate: [(close / average of the high and low price) – 1]. And then (b) take the average of today and yesterday’s result.



Thanks,
Allan

I think the "-1" is probably meaning one day (or index) old.

Try:

 

Code

if(CurrentBar < 2) return;             {                 today = (Close[0] / (.5* (High[0] + Low[0]))) - Close[1];                                  Value.Set(.5 * (yesterday + today)  );                                  yesterday = today;             }

Also on a side note, please share your R knowledge and code examples, we could use some help in that area.

If the code I provided above doesn't work let me know, I don't have Ninja loaded so didn't test it.

Can someone say if this indicator (Attached in first message) are work? And the formula are ok?
Because he say " but it does not work properly.".

If no, can someone, please, do this indicator?

I search here, but not find.
Thanks

If someone can programm and do a indicator, I can search for the formula.

edit: And if not ask much... and do this Indicator:
IBS = (Close - Low)/(High - Low)

Is for use in systems wizard in Ninja.
Thanks again
