Syntax

Public function QuadrantLines(ByRef Data As Database, ByRef OHLCV As RecordSet, ByVal StartPeriod As Integer, ByVal EndPeriod As Integer) As RecordSet

Overview

Quadrant Lines measure the highest highs and lowest lows over a specified period of time and divided these values into quadrants.

Interpretation

Quadrant Lines are most often used as a visual aid for price movement inspection.

Note

The TA QuadrantLines function is different from other TA functions.
The function returns a Recordset object, however, the returned values are present only between the start and end periods of the calculation as specified in the function arguments. All other values in the returned Recordset object will equal to zero (0).

Class: LineStudy
