Example 1
private Trix _result; protected override void Initialize() { _result = Indicators.Trix(MarketSeries.Close, 14); } public override void Calculate(int index) { double result = _result.Result[index]; }
Example 2
using cAlgo.API; using cAlgo.API.Indicators; namespace cAlgo.Robots { // This sample cBot shows how to use the Trix indicator [Robot(TimeZone = TimeZones.UTC, AccessRights = AccessRights.None)] public class TrixSample : Robot { private double _volumeInUnits; private Trix _trix; [Parameter("Volume (Lots)", DefaultValue = 0.01)] public double VolumeInLots { get; set; } [Parameter("Stop Loss (Pips)", DefaultValue = 10)] public double StopLossInPips { get; set; } [Parameter("Take Profit (Pips)", DefaultValue = 10)] public double TakeProfitInPips { get; set; } [Parameter("Label", DefaultValue = "Sample")] public string Label { get; set; } public Position[] BotPositions { get { return Positions.FindAll(Label); } } protected override void OnStart() { _volumeInUnits = Symbol.QuantityToVolumeInUnits(VolumeInLots); _trix = Indicators.Trix(Bars.ClosePrices, 9); } protected override void OnBar() { if (_trix.Result.Last(1) > 0 && _trix.Result.Last(2) <= 0) { ClosePositions(TradeType.Sell); ExecuteMarketOrder(TradeType.Buy, SymbolName, _volumeInUnits, Label, StopLossInPips, TakeProfitInPips); } else if (_trix.Result.Last(1) < 0 && _trix.Result.Last(2) >= 0) { ClosePositions(TradeType.Buy); ExecuteMarketOrder(TradeType.Sell, SymbolName, _volumeInUnits, Label, StopLossInPips, TakeProfitInPips); } } private void ClosePositions(TradeType tradeType) { foreach (var position in BotPositions) { if (position.TradeType != tradeType) continue; ClosePosition(position); } } } }
