NOOB QUESTION: reg. iStochastic

New comment
 

i need iStochastic to have fixed values.


from 0 to 1. I can choose that in the chart but while i program that into an ea it has varying values it seems am i right?


can I make it be 0 to 1?


any info from the gurus will be much appreciated. thank you.

IStoc function returns the value of the indicator at the time you call it. (The same as the line being drawn by the indicator on the chart).

In your code you set a variable that has the value you want to use (say 0.1) that acts as the "line" on the chart

You then compare the value returned by iStoc against the your variable when when it matches / cross up / cross down the variable you have your trigger (or part of trigger if you are using more than 1 indicator)

Goodluck
