hi ..am traying to find the highest high among number of candles using the function iHighest and iHigh
first i used a loope
and want to find the Highest High within or between shif and shif2
using the code
but i got the highest high for a candle outside the loop
as in this pic
any help please ?
double HighestHigh = iHigh(_Symbol,PERIOD_CURRENT,iHighest(_Symbol,PERIOD_CURRENT,MODE_HIGH,shif,shift2));
- numberofcandle = look back for "shif" candle
- start "shift2" candle away
- iHighest returns the index
- iHigh reads the index
- numberofcandle = look back for "shif" candle
- start "shift2" candle away
- iHighest returns the index
- iHigh reads the index
You're welcome. Let me know if ain't the right code.

hi my friend
it's the same problem
you can tray it :draw a trendline on EURUSD CHART H4 and name it Line1 and put the first spot of the trend line on the date
2018.07.12 00:00 ...and the second spot on the date 2018.07.12 20:00
then use this code ...for me the code give the high price of the date 2018.07.11 16:00 (1.17573) which is outside the loop...

What is this supposed to do?
for your calculation
double HighestHigh = iHigh(_Symbol,PERIOD_CURRENT,iHighest(_Symbol,PERIOD_CURRENT,MODE_HIGH,shif-shif2+1,shif2));
What is this supposed to do?
for your calculation
keith watford ...
thanks for you, your code works for me ....am not a programmer but want to learn some simple codes that help me in my indicators
thank for you again keith watford and for Icham Aidibe
