Hi
Following AFL is excellent for positional trading. Only buy/sell arrows & scanning is missing.Can some expert pl. add this features to it?
Regards

_SECTION_BEGIN("Price");
SetChartOptions(0,chartShowArrows|chartShowDates);
_N(Title = StrFormat("{{NAME}} - {{INTERVAL}} {{DATE}} Open %g, Hi %g, Lo %g, Close %g (%.1f%%) {{VALUES}}", O, H, L, C, SelectedValue( ROC( C, 1 ) ) ));
Plot( C, "Close", ParamColor("Color", colorDefault ), styleNoTitle | ParamStyle("Style") | GetPriceStyle() );
_SECTION_END();

t=Param("t", 240, 1, 5000, 1);

/*Top = Sum(High, t) / t;
Bottom = Sum(Low, t) / t;
*/
Top = EMA(High, t) ;
Bottom = EMA(Low, t);

av=(Top+Bottom)/2;
mc=IIf(av>C, ParamColor("Trigger line Up Color", colorGold), ParamColor("Trigger line Dn Color", colorBlue));
Plot(av, "\nTrigger : ", mc, ParamStyle("Trigger line Style",styleStaircase,maskAll),0,0,0,9);

_SECTION_END();

When gold line turn blue its- buy, when blue line turn gold its- sell. So simple.

Dear Vijkris good attempt.
Can we avoid 2 buy or sell repeat arrows at some places? Also we need arrows only at changing of line color.
Thanks & regards.

hi, can u pls post screenshot of the above. 2 buy/sell arrows wont come....in sideways condition this method fails, thats y u wil see many arrows clubbed together..
thanks.

 

[vijkris]

i m referring to this as sideways. if u look closely 2 buy arrows are not there. each buy arrow wil have sell arrow next. arrows wil appear only when close crosses the gold or blue line.
regards.

Dear Vijkris
Pl. refer this also

 

[hmp]

Yes dear Vijkris i got your point.You are right.Can we use it with some other indicator to avoid such situation?
Thanks a lot & regards

Dear Vijkris
Pl. refer this also

ya, this is the basic flaw of strategy in sideways market. 1 bar closes above the line so green arrow, next bar closes below the line so red arrow comes alternatively. we may have to use some other filter which identifies sideways thus reducing false signals..
thanks,
regards
