WeightedClose

Summary

Weighted Close is an average of high, low and close prices where close has greater weight.

Remarks

Like a Typical price indicator weighted Close gives a simplified view of all prices for a period as a single series.

Syntax

public interface WeightedClose

Members

Name	Type	Summary
Result	Property	Gets the resulting time series of the Weighted Close indicator calculation.

Example 1

//...
private WeightedClose weightedCloseSeries;
//...
protected override void Initialize()
{
    weightedCloseSeries = Indicators.WeightedClose();
    //...
}
public override void Calculate(int index)
{
    double weightedCloseValue = weightedCloseSeries.Result[index];
    //...
}

Example 2
