How would that look? Do you just want to get the swing high at a specific bar number and that level it is at?

Or do you just need to know IF a HH/HL or LL/LH has formed?

Just not sure exactly what you meant by your explanation?

I want the High/Low/Trend from the previous swing.

I want the High/Low/Trend from the previous swing.

I need you to be more specific. Maybe construct a picture like Cory suggested.

To me it sounds like you just want to kow when a High/Low occurs, and what the trend is. UNless you say otherwise.....

The priceActionSwing Indicator does that already. Go to that thread, and download it and see if it does any of what you need.

When you download, there will be two indies in there. One that is called 'priceActionSwing.' The other is called 'priceActionSwingTrend.'

Look @ them both, but the second one I mentioned I think will do what you want. It paints bars based on the trend according to Hh/HL etc..... there is also an oscilator that switches colors based on the trend. If that's not it, I'm sure scripting what you want won't be too bad.

Please read back! I already got that tip and need help to get these values in my strategy.
