Hi traders,

I need your help to store a value when a condition is true and use it value during the code
For example

1. When crossover Ema 200 and Ma89 then
2. Store the high Value in a variable to use it in any moment the code.
3. Draw a horizontal line from store high value to the next crossover.,

Thanks for your help.

hi

 

Code

Inputs: Price(Close), PeriodShort(89), PeriodLong(200), width(2); vars: w(0),plotvalue(0),color(white); value1 = Average(Price,PeriodShort); value2 = XAverage(Price,PeriodLong); condition1 = value1 crosses above value2; condition2 = value1 crosses below value2; if condition1 then begin plotvalue = L; color = red; end; if condition2 then begin plotvalue = H; color = green; end; if plotvalue <> 0 then begin if plotvalue <> plotvalue[1] then w = 0 else w = width; Plot(plotvalue, "cross", color, default, w); end;

Nice code.

For some reason it originally looked like the last if statement had "//" in front of it.

I prefer to slightly alter the last 2 lines of code as follows:

 

Code

if plotvalue <> plotvalue[1] then w = 0 else w = width; Plot1(plotvalue, "cross", color, default, w);

sure, I added the 2 lines because this line is not mandatory ,
it only disables the ennoying vertical lines of connection between the different levels of the horizontal lines
but i forgot to add the drawings for the moving averages;
so one should add the following lines if one wishes to see them

 

Code

Plot2(value1, "MA", green, default, 2); Plot3(value2, "EMA", red, default, 2);

Thanks traders for your support it was helpful for me.
