Enclosed is A correct Think Or Swim (black back round) version of this TrendLine and a very close to correct Amibroker version. The Amibroker Code used is: _SECTION_BEGIN("Bar Chart"); Color = ParamColor("Up Bar", colorGreen ); Color1 = ParamColor("Down Bar", colorRed ); Plot(C,"", IIf(C>O,color,color1), styleBar); _SECTION_END(); _SECTION_BEGIN("MA"); MA100 = MA(Close, 100); Ref0 = Ref(MA100, 0); Ref1 = Ref(MA100, -1); Ref2 = Ref(MA100, -2);

Thanks Steve for your efforts, but you wrote code for candle sticks and this is not what I needed. Please re-read my original post/request. I have enclosed an example that I did in Photoshop. I want a 100MA TREND LINE that changes colors as to the above stated parameters. Thanks again for all your help! -Ron

Thanks again Steve, But I don't this is not what I want. Please read my 1st post and look at the enclosed example that I made in Photoshop. I want a 100MA TRENDLINE that changes colors, (with my parameters above). I will use it as one on my indicators. Again ... Thanks for your help! Ron

Thanks for your initial try...Steve! The colorBlack shows up as a separate line and the 100MA seemed to be only green. I tried it this way (below), close but no cigar... I await your next suggestion.... -Ron A = (Close)/100; MA100 = MA(Close, 100); // SetBarFillColor(IIf(C > MA100, colorGreen, IIf(C < MA100, colorRed, colorBlack))); Plot(MA100, "", IIf(C > MA100, colorGreen, IIf(C < MA100, colorRed, colorBlack)), styleLine | styleThick); _SECTION_END();

I have the correct code to do this in Think Or Swim (see below), but can't seem to write it for Amibroker..... Think Or Swim # Calculate and plot Smooth Moving Average (MA100) plot MA100 = Average(close, 100); MA100.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.Line); MA100.SetLineWeight(1); MA100.DefineColor("Up", Color.green); MA100.DefineColor("Down", Color.red); MA100.DefineColor("Flat", Color.gray); MA100.AssignValueColor(if MA100[0] > MA100[1] then MA100.color("Up") else if MA100[0] < MA100[1] then MA100.color("Down") else MA100.color("Flat"));

I would REALLY appreciate it if someone would help me with writing the AMIBROKER CODE for a simple 100MA, which indicated swings/ trends using the following parameters: • Simple 100 bar moving average of the Close • If the 100MA is less than the previous bar’s 100MA, then 100MA is down. (colorRed) • If the 100MA is more than the previous bar’s 100MA, then 100MA is up. (colorGreen) • If the 100MA is equal to the previous bar’s 100MA, then 100MA is flat. (colorBlack) • 100MA direction is always relative to previous bar ....................................................................................................... • Overall Trend Direction has 3 possibilities – GREEN (Up), RED (Down), BLACK (Flat) • GREEN changes to BLACK if 100MA is down and price closes below 100MA in last 15 bars inclusive of the current bar • RED changes to BLACK if 100MA is more than last bar’s 100MA and price closes above 100MA in last 15 bars inclusive of the current bar • BLACK changes to GREEN if the 100MA is up for 15 consecutive bars inclusive of the current bar • BLACK changes to RED if the 100MA is down for 15 consecutive bars inclusive of the current bar • GREEN can never change to RED and RED can never change to GREEN WITHOUT a BLACK period in between. ....................................................................................... THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
