True High (TRUEHIGH)

QuantNexus indicator page for an upper price reference line.

Route: /quantnexus/indicators/truehigh/

What It Does

TRUEHIGH produces a smoothed upper price reference from the high series and configurable lookback inputs.

Formula

The exact value is derived from the high series, prior price behavior, and the selected smoothing settings.

Parameters

• period1 - default 25
• period2 - default 13
• pchange - default 1
• _movav - default EMA

C++23 API

#include <nonabt/indicators/truehigh.hpp>
auto trueHigh = std::make_unique<nonabt::TRUEHIGH>(data().close(), 25, 13, 1, "EMA");

Common Usage

• Use it as a directional upper reference or filter.
• Pair it with lower-bound or trend-following logic.
• Helpful when you need a smoothed ceiling rather than raw highs.
