David,

This is very 'Chris Tate'.

Have you seen my request to Thomas for a least squares fit function ?

The idea is to have

sell = close < lsf(close,10) - 2 * atr(10).

lsf is the line of best fit (calculated using a mathematical leat squares fit of price (could be high as you've chosen).

The market is then determining your sell position.

Interested ?

Geoff

"\n Chandelier stop is a trailing stop that use the true average range atr(10) in this case * 2.5"+
" The length of the multiplier will impact on the profitability. Obviously, a larger multiplier will let larger trends develop but has the potential to leave larger profits on the table. A smaller multiplier will leave less profit on the table but increase whipsaw." ;
"";

writeval(atr(10)) + " ATR Value"; // change periods to suit 

chandler=atr(10) *2.5; // Change the multiplier to suit 
writeval(chandler) + " Chandelier value";
stopval= high-chandler;
writeval(stopval) + " Chandelier stop";

/*buy = 0;
sell = stopval;
*/
