Half Gap

 

 

description:

this indicator would draw a line half way between previous day's close

and today's 1st bar open

e.g.

gap up opening: prev close = 100, today's open = 102

a line will be drawn at the half way point 101

 

gap down opening: prev close = 100, today's open = 98

a line will be drawn at the half way point 99

 

if the day's open is the same as previous close,

a line will be drawn at the previous close

This indicator was written in MultiCharts

I have not tested it in TradeStation or other EasyLanguage compatible programs

Tams, your half gap indicator was a GREAT help for me for two days now. Yesterday the market traded down to half gap before rallying. Today the market bought up to half gap before dumping. Both days I took profits on my half gap fill. Thank you so much again.

No need to thank me. You are the kind hearted programmer who contributes your time and skills for the trading community. Some snake oil salesman probably charges a couple of hundred dollars for this indicator.

Tams,

Thanks, I saw the reference on TOS. I also use Tradestation. I assume that there is no strategy for that in TS? Is MultiCharts free, I have never used them? Just Meta, Ninja and TS and TOS.

 

MultiCharts is paidware.

 

What kind of strategy you have in mind?

can you outline your logic in programmable detail?

I was refering to your Multi Charts code on the Half Gap. I didn't know if it was programmed for TS.

MultiCharts uses an extended version of EasyLanguage.

most of MultiCharts' codes would work in TradeStation.

 

Give it a try... and let us know how it works out.

Hey Tams,

 

Thx for this great looking indicator....would like to use it....but, tried to load into TS, from the "pla" above. TS would not load it, & was kicked to a 'search the internet' window. So, then did a 'copy/paste', to create a new ELD.....after pasted it, hit the F3 to 'verify'.....came back with "6 errors"....so would not load.... :(

 

So, do you or anyone have a version that does load?? Any help would be appreciated, if it can be done. Thx ahead of time.

    • In Italy, I saw many of our brothers from different parts of Africa, sleeping and living in the park, the weather was very cold and its obvious that they were looked down upon. It made me want to cry and several questions overwhelmed my heart.   Is it not better to remain in Africa than to be homeless in this freezing cold weather?   I wish I have all the money in the world to rescue them...   Is this the reason why our skin color is looked down upon?   Do our government officials see this sight when they also travel outside of the country...does it hurt them or pain them like it pained me?

    • Date: 28th March 2025.   Market Selloff Deepens as Tariff Concerns Weigh on Investors     Global stock markets extended their losing streak for a third day as concerns over looming US tariffs and an escalating trade war dampened investor sentiment. The flight to safety saw gold prices surge to a record high, underscoring growing risk aversion. Stock Selloff Intensifies The MSCI World Index recorded its longest losing streak in a month, while Asian equities saw their sharpest decline since late February. US and European stock futures also signalled potential weakness, while cryptocurrency markets retreated and bond yields edged lower. Investors are scaling back their exposure ahead of President Donald Trump’s expected announcement of ‘reciprocal tariffs’ on April 2. His latest move to impose a 25% levy on all foreign-made automobiles has sparked fresh concerns over inflation and economic growth, prompting traders to reassess their strategies. Investor Strategies Shift Market experts are adjusting their portfolios in anticipation of heightened volatility. ‘It’s impossible to predict Trump’s next move,’ said Xin-Yao Ng of Aberdeen Investments. ‘Our focus is on companies that are less vulnerable to tariff policies while taking advantage of market dips to find value opportunities.’ Yield Curve Signals Economic Concerns In the bond market, the spread between 30-year and 5-year US Treasury yields widened to its highest level since early 2022. Investors are bracing for potential Federal Reserve rate cuts if economic growth slows further. Long-term Treasury yields hit a one-month peak as inflation risks tied to tariffs spurred demand for higher-yielding assets. Boston Fed President Susan Collins noted that while tariffs may contribute to short-term price increases, their long-term effects remain uncertain. Gold Hits Record High as Safe-Haven Demand Rises Amid market turbulence, gold prices soared 0.7% on Friday, reaching an all-time high of $3,077.60 per ounce. Major banks have raised their price targets for the precious metal, with Goldman Sachs now forecasting gold to hit $3,300 per ounce by year-end. Looking Ahead As investors digest economic data showing US growth acceleration in Q4, attention will turn to Friday’s release of the personal consumption expenditures (PCE) price index—the Federal Reserve’s preferred inflation measure. This data will be critical in shaping expectations for future Fed policy moves. With markets on edge and trade tensions escalating, investors will closely monitor upcoming developments, particularly Trump’s tariff announcement next week, which could further dictate market direction.   Always trade with strict risk management.
