[EquisMetaStock Group] Re: How to create a price channel with higher highs and higher lows

["formulaprimer" <formulaprimer@xxxxxxxxx>]

Coding is not my thing.. hopefully someone else can help...
last try to help...

Pds1:= Input("Enter number of HHV-H periods", 3, 100, 20);
{Pds2:= Input("Enter number of HHV-L periods", 3, 100, 20);}

N1:= Input("Nth", 1, 100, 1);
C1:= Input("% MINIMUM CHANGE", 1, 100, 2);

{Peak( Nth, DATA ARRAY, % MINIMUM CHANGE )Plots the value of DATA ARRAY Nth
Peak(s) ago. This uses the Zig Zag function (see Zig Zag) to determine the
Peaks. N=1 would return the value of the most recent Peak. N=2 would return the
value of the 2nd most recent Peak, etc.}

Ref(HHV(H ,Pds1 ) ,-1);
{Ref(HHV(L ,Pds2 ) ,-1);}
Peak(N1,L,C1) ;

{END}
