Having trouble with a formula I wrote

[Mark Klier]

Trying to write a EFS for CCI audio alert and bar alert for +200 and -200 getting an error at line 39. How do I tell it to look for +200 MK

If you post the script (or attach the efs) someone may be able to help.

You helped me before, so I'll ask another question(g)

Investor's Business Daily says once a stock falls -35% from it's
high, that stock is DEAD.

Question?
What is the coding to find the high of the last 52 bars ?

If there a
for I=1 to 52
......
next I

type of statement?


......or......
Is there a ready made statement like "addBand" ????

Thanks again for your past help.

you can right click on a chart, basic studies, donchian channel and set it to 52to find the 52 week high.

That is very simple way.

I'll give that a try.

Thanks

[dloomis]

If you want a line at 35% off the high, speak up and we'll cobble something together

[dloomis]

var vDonchian = new DonchianStudy(52, 0);

function preMain(){
setPriceStudy(true);
}

function main(){
return vDonchian.getValue(DonchianStudy.UPPER)*0.35;
}

In case you want to plot the line at 35% from the 52 period high instead of at 35% of the 52 period high (which is what David's formula returns) here is the same script with a small modification
Alex

var vDonchian = new DonchianStudy(52, 0);

function preMain(){
setPriceStudy(true);
}

function main(){
return vDonchian.getValue(DonchianStudy.UPPER)-(vDonchian.getValue(DonchianStudy.UPPER)*0.35); 
}

Thanks for your help !
I am now able to plot -10%, -20% -30% and -40% lines
off the peak.

Why is this important? Not the Syntax, I mean the reading.
