Some help for a beginner in coding for a RSI signal indicator

montela · Wed, 29 Sep 2021 11:46:09 +0000

Hello, I try find a solution to create my first indicator. The idea is very simple, if Rsi is crossing 70, his value is 1 and it’s stay at this value until Rsi is crossing 30 and his value is changed to -1. So we have only 2 values 1 and -1. My code is this: If rsi(5) crosses over 70 then a = 1 elsif rsi(5) crosses under 30 then a = -1 endif return a But I have no results. Any help it will be appreciate (I have no experience in coding, I try to learn for test some ideeas). Thank you, Aurelian

Hello,

1

4
5
6

If rsi(5) crosses over 70 then
a = 1
elsif rsi(5) crosses under 30 then
a = -1
endif
return a

But I have no results. Any help it will be appreciate (I have no experience in coding, I try to learn for test some ideeas).

Thank you,

Hello,

( ) vs [ ]

Try replacing rsi(5) with rsi[5](close)
