Hello,
I can get this to compile but did doesnt plot an Diamond.
Does anyone know why?
protectedoverridevoid OnBarUpdate()
{
if (SMA(5)[0] > SMA(5)[1]
&& SMA(5)[1] < SMA(5)[2])
{
DrawDiamond("Up Diamond" + CurrentBar, 0, SMA(5)[0], Color.Blue);
}

if (SMA(5)[0] < SMA(5)[1]
&& SMA(5)[1] > SMA(5)[2])
{
DrawDiamond("Down Diamond" + CurrentBar, 0, SMA(5)[0], Color.Magenta);

}
}

Thanks

Hi dwalls,

You need to make sure you have enough bars present to start your calculations, so please add this check at the start of your OnBarUpdate() section -


if (CurrentBar < 5)
return;


Then you should see the diamonds plot as per your conditions.
