On request I programmed the Thomas Demark indicator TD Sequential -Setup. It counts up to 9 consecutive bars to complete the setup and if the setup is completed with a “perfection buy /sell signal” it draws an arrow over/below the signal candle.

Good job! This one should be posted into the library 🙂

Very Nice! @Despair Mind doing something similar to represent Ichimoku Number Theory? Would really appreciate it?

Basically, identify extreme fractals as below;

i.e. high[4] > highest[4](high) and high[4] > highest[4](high)[5] = (4 lower highs on left and 4 lower highs on right)
i.e. low[4] < lowest[4](low) and low[4] < lowest[4](low)[5] = (4 lower lows on left and 4 lower lows on right)

Start numbering each bar from the last fractal counting up to 42, highlighting (via i.e. different color or bold text) numbers 9, 17, 26, 33 and 42

Start a new count at each new fractal (i.e. possible that there can be multiple numbers above each other if a new fractal came before the end of the previous 42 number)

Thus after each extreme fractal, a number sequence up to 42 will be counted regardless of whether a new extreme fractal was formed.

The theory says that at or within very close proximity of these number sequences a major turn is likely.

@JuanJ: Sure, I can do so tomorrow. (shit I sound like if I was from spain, I always reply “tomorrow” LOL)

@Nicolas: Already done. 🙂

@Despair: Looks good Despair. Wondering, if you could add the countdown (13 bars count down) in continuation of it? That was the difficult part for me, as it is more of a loop programming rather than linear.

By the way, I have attempted TD setup (my own code in my original post) combined with Engulfing pattern, and it wasn’t that bad. Will try to put up some figures tomorrow (yea – now I sound like you 🙂 )

@nicolas: I’ve notice your ability to convert MT codes… 🙂 maybe you can add on Despair’s code by using this ?

Thanks.

Here is version 2.0 including TD Countdown (blue arrows).

Thank you, would really appreciate that. I did some further research on the topic and want to enhance my spec as follows:

After identifying the first swing high/low using the below code:
```
//Identify the 1st swing high or low
If high[4] > highest[4](high) and high[4] > highest[4](high)[5]  Then
SwingHigh = high[4] //(4 lower highs on left and 4 lower highs on right)
ElsIf low[4] < lowest[4](low) and low[4] < lowest[4](low)[5] Then
SwingLow = low[4] //(4 lower lows on left and 4 lower lows on right)
EndIf
```
Let me explain using the following example;

Starting with the swing low fractal as 1 draw the numbers 1, 9, 17, 26, 33, 42 just below the corresponding candle low in the color red.

Since we have started with a swing low fractal, we are now looking for two more swing low fractals up to and equal to bar 42 of the red swing low number series.

The same process for the above would be repeated for the following 2 fractals, except using the color blue for the next one and the color green for the last one (also drawn below the lows of the corresponding bars).

We are now looking for the first swing high fractal after the 42nd bar of the first red number series of the swing low numbers.

This will be our 1st swing high and will be indicated by the number 1 in red just above the high of the corresponding bar, do the same again for bars number 9, 17, 26, 33 and 42.

We are now looking for two more swing high fractals again only up to and equal to bar 42 of the red swing high number series.

The following two swing high number series will be marked exactly the same as the first one except using the color blue for the next one and the color green for the last one (also drawn above the lows of the corresponding bars).

We are now going to repeat the whole process all over again, looking for the first swing low after the 42nd bar of the red swing high number series etc. etc.

I have attached a crude picture drawn in MS paint to give you an idea of what I am looking for (the numbers aren’t exactly aligned due to their size).

Thanks for your assistance!

OK, I will look at this closer tomorrow. Do you have a book reference for what you are trying here? 🙂

I do yes “Trading with Ichimoku Clouds by Manesh Patel – The Essential Guide to Ichimoku
Kinko Hyo Technical Analysis”. there are literaly only a handful of people that understand the time and number theory behind Ichimoku.

There are literally only a handful of people that understand the time and number theory behind Ichimoku.

To save you some time I have started coding the indicator myself (.ITF Attached) but I still need to figure out how to switch back and forth between the different Number Series (Red, Blue, Green) for a specific Swing High/Low series (as annotated with the MS Paint Picture I attached in my previous post).

Thanks for the references. I will fix the indicator for you tomorrow.

@Despair I have done some more coding this morning on the indicator to fix the logic but now not getting anything returned. See latest .ITF attached.

I will take a look at it now but I prefer to start from scratch. Do you have a name for this indicator?

Hi’ Despair,

Thanks.

Version 2.0 seem to be png file? Or did you replace the 1st version at the top of this thread?

So, I’m done also with this one. Give me a name for this indicator and i will post it in the indicator forum.
