Half Gap


description:
this indicator would draw a line half way between previous day's close
and today's 1st bar open
e.g.
gap up opening: prev close = 100, today's open = 102
a line will be drawn at the half way point 101

gap down opening: prev close = 100, today's open = 98
a line will be drawn at the half way point 99

if the day's open is the same as previous close,
a line will be drawn at the previous close

This indicator was written in MultiCharts

Re: Half Gap

Tams, your half gap indicator was a GREAT help for me for two days now. Yesterday the market traded down to half gap before rallying. Today the market bought up to half gap before dumping. Both days I took profits on my half gap fill. Thank you so much again.

Re: Half Gap

I have neglected to mention in the first post, the idea of this indicator came from Jumbo123.

If you found this indicator useful, please say thanks to him.

Re: Half Gap

No need to thank me. You are the kind hearted programmer who contributes your time and skills for the trading community. Some snake oil salesman probably charges a couple of hundred dollars for this indicator.
