John,
could we go thru your piece of art step by step? It´s really a little over
my head!!!
Why did you use z1=BarsSince(z==0); instead of z==1? Didn´t you want to
detect where the 3D low occurred?
Otherwise, I don´t get what you try to accomplish with Cc=ValueWhen(z1,L,1)!
Which point is z1==1 in your ExRem argumenton the chart ? What happens there
in terms of lows/gifhs being taken out????
"z" is the point where the low of Z is the lowest of the minimum of three
days (including z itself), okay. Whereas z1 could take it the low of two or
one or none day(s). Why is that of importance?
I feel without yet fully being able to understand your work that you´re
getting very close to what I´ve been trying to code for weeks. Are you a
swing trader as well??
(If I see that the code is "correct" later on and I would like to have AB
draw "my" swings, can I do this in Exploration mode, or only in Guru
commentary or scan mode (latter one can only be used for testing WHOLE
systems with buy and sell conditions, right?)).
Thanks for your time AND your patience!!!
Markus

Hi markus.
is this what you meant by the order of the hhv and llv.
place it as a indi or in AA explorer to test if the order in this
code is what you want.
z=IIf(L<=LLV(Low,3),1,0);
Y=IIf(H>=HHV(High,3),1,0);
z1=BarsSince(z==0);
y1=BarsSince(y==0);
Cc=ValueWhen(z1,L,1);
dd=ValueWhen(y1,H,1);
ff=ExRem(z1==1,y1==1);//l
Hh=ExRem(y1==1,z1==1);//h
Hh1=ExRem(Hh,ff);//l
ff1=ExRem(ff,Hh);//h
kk=ValueWhen(ff1==1,L,1);//l
Ll=ValueWhen(Hh1==1,H,1);//h
mm=Cross(Hh1,0.1);//h
mmm=IIf(Cross(Hh1*1.001,1.00),4,2);//h
nn=Cross(ff1,0.1);//l
nnn=IIf(Cross(ff1*1.001,1),6,2);//l
Plot(kk ,"",6,4);//l
Plot(Ll,"",4,4);//h
Plot(C,"",1,64);
//Plot(L,"",1,64);
//Plot(H,"",1,64);
Plot(nn+L-1,"",nnn,6);//l
Plot(MM+H-1,"",mmm,6);//h
AddColumn(z,"z");
AddColumn(y,"y");
AddColumn(Hh1,"hh1");
AddColumn(ff1,"ff1");
AddColumn(kk,"kk");
AddColumn(Ll,"ll");
Buy=C;
Filter=1;
cheers: john.
