Hi Apprentice,
I tried to choose the source of MA ZigZag with MA:getCandleOutPut(0) and it doesn’t work. I have a mistake. then MA:getStream(0) and even with MA:getStreamCount()-1. In short, I can’t create an error-free strategy.
can you make an example of a strategy to understand my mistake.
Example of rule: if ZigZag[period] > MVA(12) (external indicator) = SELL elseif ZigZag[period] < MVA (12) (external indicator) = BUY End
thenk you

Hi Apprentice,
My code is not finished, so it’s under construction. I can’t post it right now.
To come back to my question?
I have proposed the realization of a ZigZag indicator whose source is MVA 20 periods. Personally, I get better results with MVA 7 periods.
when I include this indicator in my strategy I get an error message. I wrote this:
MAZZ = core.indicators:create(“MA ZigZag”, MA.getCandleOutPut(0), Depth, Deviation, Backstep);
How do I write to make it work? Could you help me?
Thank you in advance for your support.

MA.getCandleOutPut(0) will nat work. MA does NOT provide candle output, MA will only provide a single line. getCandleOutPut(0) will work on source signals that have all close, high, low, open data points.
