Triangle Indicator

[VBatla@xxxxxxx]

Found this on the list and it doesn't seem to work.  Any ideas?  Is it even 
worth messing with!
Thanks.

{Indicator calculates triangles based on SwingHighs 
and lows of a 10 day range, and with a swing strength of "1". Larger
triangles can be calculated by increasing the
strength and/or HighestBar/LowestBar range settings. The indicator plots
a simple "spike" graph, alerting the trader to the presence of a
triangle. The trader can then apply logical
trendlines to establish break-out points}
