LinearRegressionSlope

interface cAlgo.API.Indicators

DesktopCLICloud

The calculation of the Linear Regression Slope Indicator.

Definition

public interface LinearRegressionSlope

Namespace: cAlgo.API.Indicators · Group: Indicators · Implements: StandardIndicator

Remarks

Linear Regression Slope refers to the slope of the Least Squares Line. This slope represents how prices change per unit of time.

Examples

Example 1

private LinearRegressionSlope _lrSlope;
protected override void Initialize()
{
    _lrSlope = Indicators.LinearRegressionSlope(Bars.ClosePrices, 14);
}
import clr
clr.AddReference("cAlgo.API")

from cAlgo.API import *

class Test():
    def initialize(self):
        self.linearRegressionSlope = api.Indicators.LinearRegressionSlope(api.Bars.ClosePrices, 14)
