ADX Question for Phy

New comment
 

Hey Phy,


I'm using iCustom on the ADX indicator to get the values for bar[1] and bar[2] and the values that I get differs from what the chart shows. Any ideas what's going on?


ADXCurr = iCustom(NULL, 0, "ADX", 14, 0, 1);
ADXPrev = iCustom(NULL, 0, "ADX, 14, 0, 2);


Thanks,


Yi

 

ADX has three indexes, three lines.

Are you pulling the data for the correct index?

double iCustom( string symbol, int timeframe, string name, ..., int mode, int shift)

mode - Line index. Can be from 0 to 7 and must correspond with the index used by one of SetIndexBuffer functions.
 

Thanks for replying. I just confirmed that I'm accessing the correct buffer.


SetIndexBuffer(0,ADXBuffer);


ADXCurr = iCustom(NULL, 0, "ADX", 14, 0, 1);
ADXPrev = iCustom(NULL, 0, "ADX, 14, 0, 2);


So, I'm completely stumped.

How about using iADX()
 

That's what I'll do, thanks Phy.
