Nice code Joe!
I can be used nicely for stocks with high "roller" potential. Thanks
for posting it!!
Shift: in the code starts the time frame as low as 1 = yesterday,
etc. the period covered in the "Shift Period" has the candles shaded
in blue.
Lookback: 22 is used for 1 month of trading (22 days per month on
average)
Right click on the indicator when pasted into a frame- then move the
parameters of Lookback and Shift and you will see the changes.
Joe, Can you share any of your "Turtle" formulas?
Thanks again for sharing this code!
Brian
