Functions

Define reusable functions with function, and custom indicators with indicator. Parameters are type name (use type[] for an array); return hands back a value.

function float midpoint(float h, float l) {
    return (h + l) / 2;
}

indicator float hl2(float h, float l) {
    return (h + l) / 2;
}

onTick {
    float m = midpoint(High(nifty, M5, 0), Low(nifty, M5, 0));
}
