Greets!

This is likely easy ... just cant yet get my head around it. I want to test an entry filter BarsArray==0, NT7, and did get almost there, but cant figure out the final step on how to calculate iGoShortETOPtest so I can test it against iGoShortETOPtotal

 

Code

// ENTER SHORT WHEN  // (( ETOP #bars) * (ETOP average value for ETOPperiod)) >= (ETOPtotal)  // so.... filter will be iGoShortETOPtest >= iGoShortETOPtotal // - this section all good to use  private int iGoShortETOPperiod = 5; [Description("[SHORT Enter] Period Length for ETOP - Minimum 5")] [GridCategory("[SHORT Enter]eTOP)"] [Gui.Design.DisplayName ("1.a Period Length for ETOP to GO SHORT")] public int GoShortETOPperiod {  get { return iGoShortETOPperiod; }  set { iGoShortETOPperiod = Math.Max(3, value); }  }  private double iGoShortETOPtotal = 0.5; [Description("[SHORT Enter] TOTAL value for ETOP - Minimum -.5")] [GridCategory("[SHORT Enter]eTOP)"] [Gui.Design.DisplayName ("1.b TOTAL value for ETOP to GO SHORT")] public double GoShortETOPtotal  { get { return iGoShortETOPtotal; }  set { iGoShortETOPtotal = Math.Max(0.5, value); } } private int iGoShortETOPbars = 3; [Description("[SHORT Enter] #Bars for ETOP - Minimum 3")] [GridCategory("[SHORT Enter]eTOP)"] [Gui.Design.DisplayName ("1.c #Bars maximum totaled for ETOP to GO SHORT")] public int GoShortETOPbars {  get { return iGoShortETOPbars; }  set { iGoShortETOPbars = Math.Max(3, value); }  } // -------------------------- //This is the part where my brain is too confused to resolve correctly, and really  //                      annoying me greatly ... //(btw, 4 decimal places expected in ETOP output) ..  //dataseries setup? double?? OnBarUpdate or OnStartUp ?? // VERY explicit code assist is really needed .. is there more than 1 right answer? iGoShortETOPtest = (iGoShortETOPbars * (ETOP(iGoShortETOPperiod)[0]))

Thanks mightly for assist!

I think the third cup of java and 5 spoons of sugar helped ... fixed the code I think
