Subject: [amibroker] Plot text labels
above and below price bars - need help to get started
Hi,
I am new to Amibroker
and trying to figure out how to generate text labels on a chart that are
plotted directly above or below each price bar that is identified.
Here is what I want to
do:
In an Up Trend (defined
by the stochastic signal line crossing above 20 and some other
indicators):
Identify the lowest low
bar between the last 50 and 100 periods.
From the lowest low bar
identified, begin to label each high peak with a number starting at 1 through
5. When a high peak is labelled with a 5 and there is a higher peak bar still
to come, the count gets reset so the next highest peak bar would start at
1.
In a Down Trend
(defined by the stochastic signal line crossing below 80 and some other
indicators), the reverse happens:
Identify the highest
high bar between the last 50 and 100 periods.
From the highest high
bar identified, begin to label each lower trough with a letter starting at A
through E. When a trough is labelled with an E and there is a lower trough bar
still to come, the count gets reset so the next lowest low bar would start at
A.
Here is a link to an
example chart of what I am trying to achieve.

I am not the best
programmer in the world, so any help with this would be much appreciated. I
don't expect someone to code the solution for me, just a point in the right
direction.
Many Thanks,
Pete.
