Rising / Falling

[stocktraderbmp]

Hi all;

Has anybody any ideas over the time frame that NT use to calculate 'rising' and 'falling'?

Can I change it? If so - How?

If not - is the only way round it to write my own code defining my rising and falling conditions?

Thanks;

Ben.

This is defined in the help file.

The NT Help specifically says: "Checks for a rising condition which is true when the current value is greater than the value of 1 bar ago." which is kind of very specific.

The function does not seem to be indexed, though it should be easy to use if statements to work around that.

Better yet is to simply code your own rising() function, including input parameters for the period over which you want to test your rising conditions and how you want them to occur.

oops my bad; even more embarrassing is that I had the help file open on that entry.

Anyway -thanks for pointing out the obvious guys -
