Coding a reference to a Vertically Shifted MA

  ProRealTime provides vertically shifted Moving Averages. They can be useful to build channels.

  Can anyone show me how to reference the price touching one of them (say a 20-period SMA shifted + 0.25% and another one shifted -0.25%)?

  Thank you.

  There are no built-in instructions to reference “envelopes” indicator, you have to recode it yourself. Just coded this version with your settings:

  // parameters p = 20 dev = 0.25 //deviation in percent ma = average[p](close) devhi = ma+((dev/100)*ma) devlo = ma-((dev/100)*ma) RETURN devhi as "deviation high", devlo as "deviation low"

  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

  // parameters p = 20 dev = 0.25 //deviation in percent   ma = average[p](close) devhi = ma+((dev/100)*ma) devlo = ma-((dev/100)*ma)   RETURN devhi as "deviation high", devlo as "deviation low"

  Hope it works ok for your needs.
