public static SeriesCollection UpperBollingerBands( SeriesCollection sc, double standardDeviationLevel, int lengthOfMA ) | |
Parameters
- sc
- A collection of series objects. For example, to evaluate this indicator for two series you will need to pass a series collection containing this two series.
- standardDeviationLevel
- The (positive) number of standard deviations which the lower band in shifted from the moving average.
- lengthOfMA
- The length of the moving average used within the evaluation of the Bollinger Bands. Note that this also corresponds to the length of the period over which the standard deviation is evaluated.
Return Value
A series where the first term corresponds to the value of the Upper Bollinger Band for the latest periods, the second terms to the previous period and so on.Exceptions
| Exception | Description |
|---|---|
| ArgumentException | Throw if the series historicalPrices is empty or if the number of standard deviations given (i.e. the parameter standardDeviationsLevel)is a negative number. |
Remarks
Please note that by standard deviation level we not only refer to the number of standard
deviations shifts away from the moving average at which the Higher Bollinger Band is drawn
but also the number of time series points which are used in the evaluation of the standard
deviation and the moving average.
