PriceROC
interface cAlgo.API.Indicators
DesktopCLICloud
The Price ROC calculates the percentage change between the most recent price and the n-periods of the past price.
Definition
public interface PriceROC
Namespace: cAlgo.API.Indicators · Group: Indicators · Implements: StandardIndicator
Remarks
Can be used to determine whether an instrument is overbought or oversold.
Examples
Example 1
private PriceROC _result;
protected override void Initialize()
{
_result = Indicators.PriceROC(Bars.ClosePrices, 14);
}
public override void Calculate(int index)
{
double result = _result.Result[index];
}
import clr
clr.AddReference("cAlgo.API")
from cAlgo.API import *
class Test():
def initialize(self):
self.priceRoc = api.Indicators.PriceROC(api.Bars.ClosePrices, 14)
def calculate(self, index):
result = self.priceRoc.Result[index]
