Hi
@Kole96
How do you define a swing high and a swing low?
Swing High H2<H1 and H<H1
Swing Low L2>L1 and L1<L

Ok, and how do you define the value of the swing?
Jsut want to have the value displayed of a Pivothighs and Pivotlows above or below the candle like we have it with some indicators in tradingview.
they display a value in a box with the arrow

Should it look something like this?
(Here you only see the Swing High)

I’m going to try to finish the indicator tonight.

xPeriod = 20
If High[1] = Highest[xPeriod](High) and High[2] < High[1] and High < High[1] then
SwingHigh = High[1]
DrawArrowUP(BarIndex-1,High[1]+10) Coloured(0,255,0)
DrawText("#SwingHigh#", BarIndex-1, High[1]+30,Dialog,Bold,15) Coloured(0,255,0)
EndIf
If Low[1] = Lowest[xPeriod](Low) and Low[2] > Low[1] and Low > Low[1] then
SwingLow = Low[1]
DrawArrowDown(BarIndex-1,Low[1]-10) Coloured(255,0,0)
DrawText("#SwingLow#", BarIndex-1, Low[1]-30,Dialog,Bold,15) Coloured(255,0,0)
EndIf

Hi
@Kole96
Swing High:
- Find the Highest High over the past 20 periods (the period is adjustable).
- Check if the previous candle makes a lower High than the Highest High.
- Check if the next candle makes a lower High than the Highest High
In principle, they are simple conditions that can possibly be extended with additional conditions for more adjacent candles. There are now three candles involved in a swing and you could expand this to, for example, 5 candles.
Swing Low is the mirror image of Swing High
hi every one hi
@JS
I do some modification, but it’s just for learning and helping, what do you think about my code about : ù
– Drawing button, do you think it’s a goods idea, do have some tips ?
– about IF condition, I aded tomuch condition, do you think it’s more helper for prt CPU or more complicated this way ?
// Atributs :
OffsetArrow = nOffsetA * pipsize
OffsetText = nOffsetT * pipsize
Pipi = pipsize
// SwingHigh Condition
C1 = High[1] = Highest[xPeriod](High) and High[2] < High[1] and High < High[1]
// SwingLow Condition
C2 = Low[1] = Lowest[xPeriod](Low) and Low[2] > Low[1] and Low > Low[1]
IF C1 Then
IF DrawingText Then
DrawText("#SwingHigh#", BarIndex-1, High[1]+OffsetText,Dialog,Bold,15) Coloured(0,255,0)
ENDIF
IF DrawingArrow Then
DrawArrowUP(BarIndex-1,High[1]+OffsetArrow) Coloured(0,255,0)
ENDIF
ENDIF
IF C2 Then
IF DrawingText Then
DrawText("#SwingLow#", BarIndex-1, Low[1]-OffsetText,Dialog,Bold,15) Coloured(255,0,0)
ENDIF
IF DrawingArrow Then
DrawArrowDown(BarIndex-1,Low[1]-OffsetArrow) Coloured(255,0,0)
ENDIF
ENDIF
Return
@Kole96 I hope this way with offset * pipsize will help you, tks to
@robertogozzi he helped me one time with this tips
other question, I just trayed to use this code on a Daily chat but with Weekly time frame, and I got all the text and the arrow only in the bigining of the chat, how to solve this problem ? I think we have to get the position of weekly candle for draw ?
At first glance I can’t find anything wrong.Try increasing the units up to 5K, or even more.
You should post the ITF file, as some variables are missing, so I can test it thoroughly.
so this the ITF file “Temps – Swing High”, it’s working correctly like on the Photo 01
but this ITF file “Temps – Swing High Weekly” with the instruction in line one with TimeFrame (Weekly) on the Daily chart I have the Photo 02 :
TimeFrame (Weekly)
the Idea it’s just to use the idea of SwingHigh and SwingLow on a daily chart with weekly value
