Hi CS, DT and all,
I too would like dynamic (user modifyable) args to
internal functions. For example the MACD and SIGNAL
functions work only on the Close price. It would be a
plus if user could override the default Close array it internally uses.
The function prototypes then would look like:
MACD(fastperiod = 12, slowperiod = 26, sourcearray = Close);
SIGNAL(fastperiod = 12, slowperiod = 26, signalperiod = 9, sourcearray = Close);
(here the last param was added).
then such things like the following would be possible:
MACD(12,26,C) > MACD(12,26,EMA(C, 9));
or you could create the MACD for volume etc... :-)
UM
