I'm an active daytrader and script writer, translating trading strategies into PCFs, conditions and indicators. I write scripts also in StockCharts.com UDFs, Thinkorswim.com Thinkscripts and StockFetcher.com  Filters. I want to continue my growth by sharing scripts with others like myself. I've been developing a Rosetta Stone for scripters like myself to translate amongst the various scripting languages. Can you point me to places that allow these kinds of discussions, please? Does Worden provide a discussion area for people like me to trade scripts?

The PCFs, EasyScan and Custom Indicators forum in which you have posted this question is set aside to "share and discuss formulas for creating PCFs and custom indicators" and would be the correct forum for such posts if they are related specifically to our products.

A Condition Formula for a new 20-bar high could be written as:

H > MAXH19.1

A Condition Formula for a new 20-bar low could be written as:

L < MINL19.1

A Condition Formula for a new 65-bar high could be written as:

H > MAXH64.1

A Condition Formula for a new 65-bar low could be written as:

L < MINL64.1

A Condition Formula for the high just being at its 20-bar high (but not necessarily new) could be written as:

H = MAXH20

A Condition Formula for the low being at its 20-bar low could be written as:

L = MINL20

A Condition Formula for the high being at its 65-bar high could be written as:

H = MAXH65

A Condition Formula for the low being at its 65-bar low could be written as:

L = MINL65

Champion;
I'm looking for someone to translate a few scripts from Worden to ThinkScript (should only take an hour or two for someone who's knowledgeable)

Do you know anybody who can help out here?

Thanks!
Chip Royce

While we would do our best to convert ThinkScript into RealCode or the Personal Criteria Formula Language, it would be with the understanding that we are not literate in ThinkScript and would be guessing to some extent as to its intent.

The reverse (converting to ThinkScript) is simply not something we would be able to help you with as we are not familiar with ThinkScript and do not support third party products.
