Hello Dorschden,

Would it be possible to have this indicator plot the ABC in progression rather than instantaneously?

I find it 80% accurate when entering right where the C plots (61.8% - 76.4% retracement) when trading the Euro FX currency using a 220 tick and 5 Renko.

Hopefully my request will make your already amazing indicator that much more effective. Your feedback and time is very much appreciated!!!

Kind Regards!
Todd

can u post in jpeg form and any other info about your strategy

Slow reply, sorry. A team of us traded a swing system in the late '80s when I was a trader on the London Future & Options Exchange (FOX) which is now defunct. We traded soft commodities using an entire swing system on daily charts, & a more discretionary system based around time counts. We won trader of the year doing around 100% return in 1986 using a mix of the 2 systems (if I recall, a long time ago now).
I always wondered how it would go on FX on shorter t/fs using automation.

If there is a coder around who would work with me, I would like to develop something & backtest it before putting it on general forum, no charge of course. I would just like to get it to working stage before it goes up, happy to share results & get other inputs as well. Not sure if we put it in this thread or start a new one, either way is fine. The Gann swing indicator on this thread is a good base, but needs a bit of work around outside bars, inputs etc. If anyone is interested PM me.

Thx
Michael

Sorry, I'm busy with some non trading related stuff, so I'm not really able to answer questions here till the end of march. Maybe I find the time for some quick answers here and there.

By the way, I wanted to post a BIG THANK YOU for the 3rd place of the futures.io (formerly BMT) Best Indicator Of The Year for 2010 and all the nice comments and mails I've gotten the last weeks/months.

Wow, this looks like a great piece of code, if I could get it to work correctly in a strategy. I have read all 16 pages of this thread and used several different cod snippets for the PSA indicator in a strategy within NJ 7. I tried post #84 combined with a new strategy strategy just to see if I could get this to work. No luck. Could someone post both the most current version of indicator code with a simple PSA strategy code that implements the PSA relative strength indicator? Not looking for something that makes money, just one that works without giving me errors? Here is the code. Thanks for your help here... This is probably some silly rookie coding error

Alex, can the GannSwing indicator be toggled to draw 2 bar Swings?

Hi Guys,

A while back I had a Gann Swing Indicator made up, as I don’t know how to program. I haven't used it for some time.

Thanks to Dorschden PriceActionSwing Indicator, I pulled it out of hibernation. I forgot how nice simple price action alone can be.

The Gann Swing Chart is nice in defining swing highs and lows and with the use of PriceActionSwing Indicator and Fibonacci replacements, one only needs price and volume to define trends and support resistance area.
Cheers
Alex

George,

you must double click on a Fibonacci retracement then you get the "Fibonacci Retracement Properties" window and there you can set your personal settings for the retracement. After that you must push the "Set Default" button and then all your Fibonacci retracement have your personal settings. You can do the same with the Fibonacci extension.

Hi dorchden,

IS this possible to set the default fib retrace and ext in NT7?

I don't get the set default button when I open the dialog box.

Thank you for your work,

Bondi9999

A reply to my own post. When one has the dialog box open, right click and manage just like for an ATM

Team

Has anyone used this successfully and if you have been using this indicator in your trading has anyone come up with the optimal set up that gives 75 to 90 % accurate signals.

Would love to hear from the room and see what people think of this wonderful indicator.

Thanks to everyone who contribute and made this indicator possible
