Lowest/Highest of closing prices in a given range (?)

New comment
 

Good afternoon,

I have quite a weird problem, I am trying to extract the highest and lowest of all closing prices of a given period without sucess. This is what I have so far.

double DCloseHighest(int shift, int period)
{
   return(iHigh(Symbol(),Period(),iHighest(Symbol(), Period(), MODE_CLOSE, period+1,shift+1)));  
}

double DCloseLowest(int shift, int period)
{
   return(iLow(Symbol(),Period(),iLowest(Symbol(), Period(), MODE_CLOSE, period+1,shift+1)));  
}

However, the absolute high and low are returned, respectively. What am I doing wrong? :-)

Thanks in advance!

Thats what you are asking for . . . 

return( iHigh
return( iLow

My bad. Stupid mistake. Got it. Thanks!

double DCloseHighest(int shift, int period)
{
   return(iClose(Symbol(),Period(),iHighest(Symbol(), Period(), MODE_HIGH, period+1,shift+1)));  
}

double DCloseLowest(int shift, int period)
{
   return(iClose(Symbol(),Period(),iLowest(Symbol(), Period(), MODE_LOW, period+1,shift+1)));  
}

Easily done,  you are welcome

If you are looking for the highest/lowest close price, I believe you need to use MODE_CLOSE in your iHighest() function.  

double DCloseHighest(int shift, int period)
{
   return(iClose(Symbol(),Period(),iHighest(Symbol(), Period(), MODE_CLOSE, period+1,shift+1)));  
}

double DCloseLowest(int shift, int period)
{
   return(iClose(Symbol(),Period(),iLowest(Symbol(), Period(), MODE_CLOSE, period+1,shift+1)));  
}

As weird as it might be, it returns exactly the same data.

Coincidence I reckon . . .   use MODE_CLOSE
