Hi Mark,

While waiting for an improved canned version, maybe you could use this
by substituting whatever retracement calcs that you want.  It's
a bit klunky compared to the built-in, but could be made easier to use
by deleting or ignoring the date inputs. (But it wouldn't be as cool.
:-))
And rather than manually inputting the high and low you
could maybe use the Peak and Trough or Zig Zag function to define swings

automatically (like the indicator that Erika posted last year).
