Name of BollingerBandsWidth indicator doesn't show up in Visual Studio
28 Nov 2020, 05:38


I don't see BollingerBandsWidth indicator in Visual Studio. I want to get last result like the one I get when using BollingerBands indicator e.g.

OnStart() {
Boll = Indicators.BollingerBands(Source, BandPeriod, Std, MaType);

}

if(Boll.Main.LastValue > Symbol.Bid)

So when I type "Indicators.BollingerBandsWidth" there is nothing. A file of the indicator is in right folder and there is 'using cAlgo.indicator' statement. Any idea?

I don't believe the BBW indicator comes native to cTrader, so you can't add it like you do the BB's.

You have to do something like the following:

 

Bbw = new BollingerBandsWidth(); //this could vary depending on the class
Bbw = Indicators.GetIndicator<BollingerBandsWidth>( [whatever the parameters are for the custom BBW indicator you have] );
