Stochastic from 2 TimeFrames - Average

[MHundred]

Hi,

I'm trying to make an Stochastic-Indikator which is calculated on 2 Timeframes. That means I have e.g. 1 Stochastic-Value from 1min and a second Stochastic-Value from 2min. This I have already done.
I want then finally have the average of this 2 values above. I don't know how.
Here is my modified code from customStochastic that give the values for a stochastic-Indicator from 2 timeframes. But I don't know how to calculate the average.

var fpArray = new Array();

function preMain() {

setPriceStudy(false);
setStudyTitle("StochasticAverage");
setCursorLabelName("%K",0);
setCursorLabelName("%K2",1);

var average = 0;

var bInit = false;

var xStochD = null;

function main(KLength,KSmoothing,DLength,Symbol,Interval,In terval1,Upper,Lower,Params) {

if(bInit == false){
if(Symbol == null) Symbol = getSymbol();
if(Interval == null) Interval = getInterval();
var vSymbol = Symbol+","+Interval;
var vSymbol1 = Symbol+","+Interval1;
//var average = 0;
xStochK = stochK(KLength,KSmoothing,DLength,sym(vSymbol));
xStochK1 = stochK(KLength,KSmoothing,DLength,sym(vSymbol1));
//xStochD = stochD(KLength,KSmoothing,DLength,sym(vSymbol));
average = (xStochK + xStochK1)/2;
addBand( Upper, PS_SOLID, 1, Color.black,"Upper");
addBand( Lower, PS_SOLID, 1, Color.black,"Lower");
setShowTitleParameters(eval(Params));
bInit = true;
}

return new Array (getSeries(xStochK),getSeries(xStochK1));//,getSeries(average));
}

I think its not that complicated but I'm new to EFS. Maybe someone could help?
Thank you!

[amclister]

have you tried creating a variable:

say

var xstochMA = (stoch(1min) + stoch(2min)) / 2

and then putting then new variable into the return statment?

Hi amclister,

thank you for your answer.

I have that already done and its called "average".
Also when I not exclude:"//var average = 0;"
It doesn't work.

Maybe you have got another idea?

Hi, MHundred,

Try the attached efs. I also corrected:

fpArray[x] = new FunctionParameter("Interval1", FunctionParameter.NUMBER); 

with:

fpArray[x] = new FunctionParameter("Interval1", FunctionParameter.STRING);

Ive had a quick look at fixing your efs.

I have got it to calculate the average but I cant get it to graph, anyway it seems waynced has sorted it for you.

good luck,

p.s. heres my code (note it doesnt work):

[MHundred]

Thank you waynecd. Its working like I thought.

Thank you also amclister for your efforts.
