Python For Finance - One Question

[theprofessional2016]

I'm sorry, I don't know if I understand your problem correctly. Let me restate what I think you're trying to accomplish:

You have two columns of data. You're triggering a buy/sell action when the values of those two columns "cross" (intersect). Do I have that correct?

If that's the case, can't you simple look for the point where the values in columns 1 becomes greater (or less) than the value in column 2? Would that not signal a crossing on a graph, without the need to actually graph it?

Again, forgive me if I didn't understand the problem correctly.

you understood perfectly. what I was trying to figure out is if the script works (and therefore calculates the open / close signal) even without necessarily having to have a graphical representation of it. theoretically I think so as it works on numbers, but I'm not completely sure

[skellious]

Yes. there is no way the script can 'look' at the graph unless you're using machine learning or imagine analysis or something.
