I would like to create a data series containing the higher of the Open or Close.

throws an error. Is there a way it can be done with a DataSeries Object?

That's because Math.Max accepts two numbers, not two DataSeries. Try this:

Thanks Eugene. I thought this might be one of those times when you have much simpler way to code something than the way I would do it.

Well, with extension methods you can make it a one-liner. Still, you'd have to put that DataSeriesEx class somewhere (btw, one already exists in Community Components, providing access to methods like "DataSeries.ToList"). But then you use ".HighestOfTwo" as a native WealthScript method and don't even need a "using" directive:

I think it makes sense to add HighestOfTwo and its opposite LowestOfTwo to C.Components.

HighestOfTwo and LowestOfTwo have been added to Community Components 2016.03.
