Syntax

public CumUp(DataSeries source, int period, string description)
public static CumUp Series(WealthLab.DataSeries source, int period)
public static double Value(int bar, DataSeries source, int period)

Parameter Description

source	Price series
period	Indicator calculation period

Description

CumUp lets you test whether a specific number of consecutive bars have elapsed where the prices are greater than their value a certain number of bars ago. See also: CumDown

Calculation

CumUp is a running count of the number of bars whose Series value is above its delayed Series; in other words, Series offset forward by the Period. The count is reset to zero when the Series is below its offset series.

		{ 
			return Color.FromArgb( 
				(int)Math.Floor( ( WS4Color % 1000 ) / 100 * 28.4 ), 
				(int)Math.Floor( ( WS4Color % 100 ) / 10 * 28.4 ), 
				(int)Math.Floor( WS4Color % 10 * 28.4 ) ); 
		}
		
		protected override void Execute()
		{
			// Highlight extreme moves up

			double n = 0; 
			
			for(int bar = 0; bar < Bars.Count; bar++)
			{
				n = Math.Truncate( CumUp.Series( Close, 3 )bar );
				if( n > 9 ) n = 9;
				SetBarColor( bar, WS4ColorToNET( n*10 ) );
			}
