Here's today's ES 2401... I have added the ZigZag indicator to the chart; it helps you to visualize the oscillations. you can get the ZigZag indicator here: http://www.traderslaboratory.com/forums/f56/free-easylanguage-indicators-5418.html p.s. This indicator is very sensitive. If you get an error message, you will have to reduce the strength a bit. p.s. The indicator was written in MultiCharts. If you are using TradeStation, please send me a PM. I will get one work out for you. .

HL Bracket v2.2 This program marks the High and Low of n bars back. Useful as a guide for stops, break outs, scalping, etc. The number will reverse color when the price breaches the bracket. . HL_Bracket_v22.txt

Thanks for the heads up. Somehow I always thought time_s is a standard reserved word in TradeStation. In that case, I better make 2 versions of each code, if seconds are involved.
-
bitmap file size is too big. use GIF for charts, the foot print is smaller, and it gives more even coloring. i.e. less noise/snowflake on the flat background.
-
I have just started a thread on EasyLanguage indicators. I will be posting more codes in the coming days. I hope you will find it useful. http://www.traderslaboratory.com/forums/f56/free-easylanguage-indicators-5418.html
-
if you combine ZigZag with the HH/LL indicator... the chart will give you a whole new vision. ;-)
-
you can try this: replace time_s with a zero. change SwingTime(time_s) ; to SwingTime(0) ; .
-
What program are you using? SwingTime is a declared variable. It should not give you problem. That leaves only time_s. But this is a reserved word, i.e. the word is built into TradeStation and MultiCharts.
-
yes, you need to make it an indicator. 1. copy the code into your editor, 2. compile 3. after successful compilation, insert the indicator into your chart.
-
Thanks for the heads up. My mistake; I use MultiCharts, I did not know DarkYellow is only supported in MultiCharts. For the benefit of all users, attached is a list of EasyLanguage supported colors. .
-
mmm... don't know why. The code is very generic. I know people have tried in TradeStation with no problem. I use MultiCharts. Maybe someone with TradeStation can share his experience. -
Here is his one page Trading Rule summary (a long page!) . ProfLogic_Intraday_Trade_Rules.txt
-
This thread is for the discussion of ProfLogic's method. The method can be use on day trades, swing trades as well as long term trades. Attached is an example of his chart. .

Price Action HH / LL with horizontal lines Another indicator for Price Action traders. This popular indicator labels HH / LL on the chart. I have added the option to show horizontal lines at HH / LL points, so that you can visualize the Support / Resistance areas. . HH_LL_Line.txt
-
Red Light / Green Light This might well be the Holy Grail you have been looking for. Description: this is a MA based indicator The indicator turns green when the close is above MA and turns red when the close is below MA. . redlight_greenlight.txt

ZigZag JJs A must have for all Price Action traders! There are quite a few versions of ZigZag on the web. I like this version because it is very sensitive. The author is unknown. If you know of him, please post his credit here. The original version only works in minute, and slower fractals. I have modified the code to work with second charts, tick charts and volume bar charts. . ZigZag_JJs.txt
-
I will be sharing my EasyLanguage Indicators here. Some of the codes are of my own creation. Others are public license open source stuff that I have modified.
-
HSI is the game! guaranteed to make your heart beat faster. you can trade it through IB.
-
here's a screen shot of the indicator
-
give this a try... this is the Price Action code. It labels HH/LL on your chart. I have modified it to draw a horizontal line at the top and bottom of each turn. you have the option to print the text, draw the line, or both. HH_LL_Line.txt
-
you should start by looking at some of the canned codes that came with the program. there are a few examples that follow your chain of thought.
-
Value2 = TL_New(Date, Time, Value1, Date, SessionEndTime(1, 1), Open); value2 is the TL_ID TL_Style is one of the following number: 1 will give you this: ______________________ 2 will give you this: - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 3 will give you this: ......................... ................... 4 will give you this: __ _ __ _ __ _ __ _ __ _ __ 5 will give you this: ___ _ _ ___ _ _ ___ _ _ ___

TL_SetColor Assigns the specified color to a trendline with the specified ID number; returns a value of 0 if the color was successfully assigned, and a value of -2 if the specified trendline ID number is invalid. Usage TL_SetColor(TL_ID,TL_Color) Parameters TL_ID - a numerical expression specifying the trendline ID number TL_Color - an expression specifying the trendline color Trendline color can be specified by a numerical expression representing an RGB color number or a legacy color value, or by one of 17 base color words. Note A trendline-specific ID number is returned by TL_New when the trendline is created. Examples Assign the color blue to the trendline with an ID number of 3: Value1=TL_SetColor(3,Blue); Assign the RGB color 2138336 (Orange) to the trendline with an ID number of 3: Value1=TL_SetColor(3,2138336); Assign the legacy color 4 (Green) to the trendline with an ID number of 3: [LegacyColorValue=True]; Value1=TL_SetColor(3,4);
-
TL_SetStyle Assigns the specified style to a trendline with the specified ID number; returns a value of 0 if the trendline style was successfully assigned, and a value of -2 if the specified trendline ID number is invalid. Usage TL_SetStyle(TL_ID,TL_Style) Parameters TL_ID - a numerical expression specifying the trendline ID number TL_Style - a TL style constant or a numerical expression specifying the trendline style as follows: Tool_Solid 1 ______________________ Tool_Dashed 2 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Tool_Dotted 3 ............................................ Tool_Dashed2 4 __ _ __ _ __ _ __ _ __ _ __ Tool_Dashed3 5 ___ _ _ ___ _ _ ___ _ _ ___ Note A trendline-specific ID number is returned by TL_New when the trendline is created. Examples Set the style of the trendline with an ID number of 3 to Tool Dashed: Value1=TL_SetStyle(3, 2); Set the style of the trendline with an ID number of 3 to Tool Dashed: Value1=TL_SetStyle(3, Tool_Dashed);

this should do the trick [LegacyColorValue = true]; input: PeriodValue(7), text.color(black), decimal(2); vars: HighAtrTxt(-1), LowAtrTxt(-1), Atr(0), HighATR(0), LowATR(0); Atr = AvgTrueRange (PeriodValue); //7 day ATR HighATR = H[1] + ATR[1]; {<-- yestereday's ATR = ATR[1] } LowATR = L[1] - ATR[1]; if currentbar = 1 then begin HighAtrTxt = Text_New(Date, Time, HighATR, "High ATR"); LowAtrTxt = Text_New(Date, Time, LowATR, "Low ATR"); text_Setcolor(HighAtrTxt, text.color); text_Setcolor(LowAtrTxt, text.color); text_Setstyle(HighAtrTxt, 0, 2); text_Setstyle(LowAtrTxt, 0, 2); end; text_SetLocation(HighAtrTxt,date, time, HighATR); text_SetLocation(LowAtrTxt,date, time, LowATR); text_SetString(HighAtrTxt ," < "+NumToStr(HighATR,decimal)+" High ATR"); text_SetString(LowAtrTxt, " < "+NumToStr(LowATR,decimal)+" Low ATR");
