Hi Bruce,  I received an email with this GREAT indicator allegedly.  Want to test it's validity.  They gave the code for the two plots with buy and sell signal being the crossover of the indicators.

 

Green = [ 100-(number of periods since 100-Day High) / 100] x100

Red = [100-(number of periods since 100-Day Low) /100] x100

this  100 periods at the beginning of the formula is the  adjustable units of time.  It coulf be adjusted  to what ever 50 I guess but in the example it is 100.

the second part I believe is the # of periods from the HH in the 100 day period.

Both Indicator is plotted in 1 window and because it's percentage the scale would be the same.  On then can see when the Red cross the Green  going up or vice-versa green crossing the red.

I have a picture of the plot I snipped but I don't know how to make it a part of the message or how to attach it

How does one place the value of the indicator in a particular position on the chart.  Currently  I have an indicator that has moving averages.  How do we write their value in the area above the chart where the titles of the plots are?

ronate12,

One way to add a picture is to upload it to TinyPic.com (it's easy) and then copy the url they give you into your post, using the Image icon above. (That's the short version - Bruce may have something clearer and/or easier :)

Bruce,

Is there a way to PCFify this for v17?

Add the Aroon Indicator to the charts. I think it does what you want.

You should be able to right-click on the indicators to create the desired conditions.

Is Bruce a genius or what? I haven't looked at the Aroon Indicator in ages.
