Joseph,

Try this...I have placed arrows on the chart....

 

gapclosingfromupopen =Open > Ref(H,-1) AND C > Ref(L,-1) AND C < Ref(H,-1);

gapclosingfromdownopen=Open < Ref(L,-1) AND C > Ref(L,-1) AND C < Ref(H,-1);

Color= IIf(gapclosingfromupopen,colorYellow,IIf(gapclosingfromdownopen,colorOrange,ParamColor("color",colorBlack)));

PlotShapes(gapclosingfromupopen*shapeDownArrow,colorRed,0,High,-15);

PlotShapes(gapclosingfromdownopen*shapeUpArrow,colorGreen,0,Low,-15);

_SECTION_BEGIN("Price");

SetChartOptions(0,chartShowArrows|chartShowDates);

_N(Title = StrFormat("{{NAME}} - {{INTERVAL}} {{DATE}} Open %g, Hi %g, Lo %g, Close %g (%.1f%%) {{VALUES}}", O, H, L, C, SelectedValue( ROC( C, 1 ) ) ));

Plot( C, "Close", color , styleNoTitle | ParamStyle("Style") | GetPriceStyle() );

_SECTION_END();

 

Filter= gapclosingfromupopen OR gapclosingfromdownopen;

AddColumn(C,"");

AddColumn(gapclosingfromupopen,"up");

AddColumn(gapclosingfromdownOpen,"down");

Thanks Anthony

What I would like to do is put some simple buy and sell signals in there as well

ie.
- When it gaps up on open and then heads back down closes into the previous days range, I would like to short the stock on the next trading day at open and cover at close (assuming its a down day, no stops required)
- I would like to do the opposite gaps down on open. To buy at open on next trading day, and sell at close

If you have time to help me out with this , that would be great, if not, i appreciate the help you've given me so far

ALSO, how can become as proficient as you at this stuff, will howard bandy's book on 'Intro to AB' help me out? Any advice would be grand

Cheers

hi Anthony and other helpers

thanks heaps for your help so far 

the formula worked when i connected all the spaces

is there anyway to highlight those days? Even if they dont reverse the trend, just all the days in question

thanks

Joseph,
 
I just did what you described ....I opened the price formula using edit formula..... I copy and pasted the formula from the email into
the price formula...and then clicked apply....
 
I GOT THE SAME ERROR MESSAGES AS YOU...   
 
The problem is WORD WRAP....     check the formula that you added...there will be spaces
throughout the formula...you have to remove the spaces...
 
Look at the email you sent me in response.... LOOK AT THE SPACES  throughout the formula you added at the bottom..

thanks for jumping in anthony 

but i am still getting same error on all, some say error 31 (as well as error 30)

i am right clicking mouse then going to 'edit formula', then adding your formula to the existing price formula so that i end up with this:

_SECTION_BEGIN( "Price");
SetChartOptions( 0,chartShowArrow s|chartShowDates );
_N(Title = StrFormat("{ {NAME}} - {{INTERVAL}} {{DATE}} Open %g, Hi %g, Lo %g, Close %g (%.1f%%) {{VALUES}}", O, H, L, C, SelectedValue( ROC( C, 1 ) ) ));
Plot( C, "Close", ParamColor(" Color", colorBlack ), styleNoTitle | ParamStyle(" Style") | GetPriceStyle( ) ); 
_SECTION_END( );

gapclosingfromupope n=Open > Ref(H,-1) AND C > Ref(L,-1) AND C < Ref(H,-1);

gapclosingfromdowno pen=Open < Ref(L,-1) AND C > Ref(L,-1) AND C < Ref(H,-1);

Filter= gapclosingfromupope n OR gapclosingfromdowno pen;

AddColumn(C, "");

AddColumn(gapclosin gfromupope n,"up");

AddColumn(gapclosin gfromdown Open,"down") ;

I assume you are not referring to the code posted below but the one in the subsequent post. Here is the correct version.

GapClosedWithinRang e = Open != Ref(Close,-1) AND Close > Ref(Low,-1) AND Close < Ref(High,-1) ;
