Tradestation Codes

Looks ok to me. Don't know why your charts look odd. The scaling is wrong but if you try Kako's instructions (esp. set indicator scaling to "same as symbol") from a few posts ago it should sort that. Don't know why you're getting flat spots in the bands though.

Hi Gareth,

Thanks for your reply-I've tried Kako's settings and the chart seems to have improved. The chart posted on #19 post-does that look OK?

Cheers!

The Guppy Darvas code

Hi All found this in one of the BB- but this does not pass the verification test in the easylanguage- Any suggestions are welcome-

inputs:
Periods( 100 ),
ExitNextDay( false ),
GhostBoxExit( false ),
BreakoutEntry (false ),
VolumeEntry( false ),
VolumeAvgLen( 10 ),
VolumeFactor( 1.5 ) ;
variables:
BarsSinceDH( 0 ),
BarsSinceDL( 0 ),
CriticalLow( 0 ),
TempD_Low( 0 ),
SearchForLow ( false ),
D_Low( 0 ),
D_High( 0 ),
BottomLineNum( 0 ),
TopLineNum( 0 ),
LeftSideNum( 0 ),
RightSideNum( 0 ),
CriticalHigh( 0 ),
TempD_High( 0 ),
DHighLowDiff( 0 ),
MyStop( 0 ),
MyTrigger( 0 ),
DownTrend( 0 ) ;
if CurrentBar > Periods then
begin
BarsSinceDH = BarsSinceDH + 1 ;
BarsSinceDL = BarsSinceDL + 1 ;
if Low[3] <= CriticalLow[4] and
Low[3] <= Low[2] and
Low[3] <= Low[1] and
Low[3] < Low
then
begin
TempD_Low = Low[3] ;
BarsSinceDL = 3 ;
end ;
if SearchForLow and BarsSinceDL < 6 and
BarsSinceDL <= BarsSinceDH then
begin
D_Low = Low[BarsSinceDL] ;
D_High = TempD_High ;
SearchForLow = false ;
BottomLineNum = TL_New( Date[BarsSinceDH],
Time[BarsSinceDH], D_Low, Date[3], Time[3],
D_Low ) ;
TopLineNum = TL_New( Date[BarsSinceDH],
Time[BarsSinceDH], D_High, Date[3], Time[3],
D_High ) ;
LeftSideNum = TL_New( Date[BarsSinceDH],
Time[BarsSinceDH], D_High, Date[BarsSinceDH],
Time[BarsSinceDH], D_Low ) ;
RightSideNum = TL_New( Date[3], Time[3], D_High,
Date[3], Time[3], D_Low ) ;
end ;
if High[3] >= CriticalHigh[4]
and High[3] >= High[2]
and High[3] >= High[1]
and High[3] > High
then
begin
BarsSinceDH = 3 ;
TempD_High = High[3] ;
SearchForLow = true ;
end ;
CriticalHigh = Highest( High, Periods ) ;
CriticalLow = Lowest( Low, BarsSinceDH ) ;
end ;
DHighLowDiff = D_High - D_Low ;
if GhostBoxExit and DHighLowDiff > 0 and Close >
D_High + DHighLowDiff then
begin
MyStop = ( IntPortion( ( Close - D_Low ) /
DHighLowdiff ) - 1 ) * DHighLowDiff + D_Low ;
MyTrigger = MyStop + DHighLowDiff ;
end
else
begin
MyStop = D_Low ;
MyTrigger = D_High ;
end ;
if Close crosses under D_Low then
DownTrend = 0
else if BreakoutEntry and Close crosses over D_High then
DownTrend = 1
else if BreakoutEntry and DownTrend = 1 and
BarsSinceDL = 3 then
DownTrend = 2 ;
if ( BreakoutEntry and DownTrend = 2 ) or
BreakoutEntry = false then
begin
if VolumeEntry then
begin
if Close crosses over MyTrigger and Volume >
Average( Volume, VolumeAvgLen ) * VolumeFactor
then
Buy next bar market ;
end
else if Close < MyTrigger then
Buy next bar MyTrigger stop ;

if ExitNextDay then
begin
if Low[1] >= MyStop and Low < MyStop then
Sell next bar at market ;
end
else
Sell next bar at MyStop stop ;
end ;
 
This is not an indicator but a signal used in a strategy. You need to make some changes and then it should work but note it will only give Long signals and not Short.

Thanks Paul,

If I could make this work- then I guess the short code should be just the reverse, I could give that a try.

Cheers!
