I am trying to find some code that I can modify/adapt to automatically plot a line "x ticks/pts" below recent swing highs/above recent swing lows.
For example, swing high was at 100 and the retracement amount is say 4 then I want a line drawn/dots on the chart when/if the market reaches 96.
Ideally the line would only be a few bars to the left and right of the bar that hit the level i.e. I want the line to be clear and not just one dot ideally.
Look back period is x bars.
I found the swing indicator and it looks very close to what I want but I want the plot(dots) to be the swing high value - my value e.g. -3.
The code is fairly advanced for me.
Could someone please highlight the code in the Swing indicator that actually plots the dots and can I just subtract a value from it without stuffing up the rest of the code i.e. it still needs to detect new swing highs but when a new swing high is detected I want to plot the (new swing high - x).
The Word file has a screenshot of a chart with the Swing indicator applied.

I'm looking for the same modification to the swing indicator that your were in this post. I'd like to display the Dots + or Minus - ticks from the pivot. Could you tell me if you were successful in finding what you were looking for ?

as you can see it calculate the range of the pivot candle, so you can modify the candle range to a fix value you want.
you can find it here
This indicator colors swing candle HL, it is based on Ninja Swing indicator so you can put them on side by side to compare.
Note: if it squeeze you chart, set auto scale to False.
