hi
this afl is mtf trendline by ed pottasch
the pattern marked here is like wolfwave.
No it is not like wolfe wave
Nor Trendline MF

This afl seems to be a combination of multiple afls, more so if it is from a afl seller/tip provider.

hi guys. here is a little update. The code I use to alternate the pivots is different (old code has a lot of useless code in it) and i took out the multi timeframe part, see: http://wisestocktrader.com/indicatorpasties/547-123 so you can more easily use it in range bar charts.

i did not put additional effort in it so there might still be errors. If you see one let me know

Thanks for the afl.

Is it the corrected code of
http://www.wisestocktrader.com/indicatorpasties/398-123-pat
Or a new one.
As this above code is showing error like
number of arguments must be one
Too many arguments

Please let me know
, how to change background color from black to some lighter color say Light Grey or Light Blue

Thanks
