In real code, can you use an average high price over say 28 days in the formula?  Thanks

The normal way to do this would be to create an Indicator for High:

- Select RealCode Editor | Indicator.
- Use the following RealCode:

Plot = Price.High

And then add a Moving Average onto the High. You could then create drag this Moving Average into a new RealCode Indicator, Condition or Paint Brush.

Real Code Volume Multiplier


It is possible to do this entirely using RealCode however.

- Select RealCode Editor | Indicator.
- Use the following RealCode.

'# Period = UserInput.Integer = 28
Static Sum As Single
If isFirstBar Then
    Sum = 0
End If
If CurrentIndex < Period Then
    Sum += Price.High
Else
    Sum += Price.High - Price.High(Period)
End If
If CurrentIndex >= Period-1 Then Plot = Sum/Period
