We might need more information to help guide you. Are you thinking of using a certain chart style (Time, Range, Renko, Momentum, Linebreak, etc.), what constitutes an uptrend? (HH & HLs, Slope of MA, etc) Would you always enter after the 3rd bar? Any form of Chop filter?

its like this in thinkorswim , i use this alot and it works great but i want to try to automate it



The TTM Scalper Alert is a great tool for runaway markets. Timing entry into a runaway market is haphazard at best and can be akin to stepping in front of a freight train. By waiting for a scalper alert to fire off, a trader can be sure that momentum has at least paused and allows an entry at a possible turning point with a precise risk reward ratio in place.

The TTM Scalper Alert comprises two plots, Pivot High and Pivot Low. Pivot High is shown as an arrow above the first bar in a series of 3 lower Closes (Sell signal). Pivot Low is shown as an arrow under the first bar in a series of 3 higher Closes (Buy signal)
The minimum price range between the Pivot High and Pivot Low to be interpreted as a trend reversal.

thanks for all help in advance guys really am greateful

Are you now trying to code this in NinjaTrader or within ThinkOrSwim?

Okay,

I don't know a lot about patterns in the market but doing a quick google search on that product almost indicates to me it is detecting a simple ABC pattern for entry. I am certain there are various indicators already on this site for that pattern recognition. They you need to wire it into a strategy.

I am sure someone can point you to that indicator, hopefully my interpretation of the tool is correct...

Hope that helps.

no its just a 3bar up or down trend , but from my research as a scalper , lol , i have been really sucessful with it .

so i use a .25 range and when it hits 3 bar up or down theres a %80 chance that it gives another few bars . of coarse with a few other indicators to know when .

sounds stupid but it works for me for now

Then back to your original question, add the user inputs that you would want to vary. Mainly in the other indicators, you may want to add a time window and possible money management parameters until you are going to watch it like a hawk....

Seems like you know what you want to do, not sure how much more I can help. Certainly, if you bump into trouble while trying to code the strategy, we can probably get you through those problems.
