Bigbocarat Posted August 24, 2018 Report Share Posted August 24, 2018 I can place a horizontal line on a 5 minute chart that shows the 52 week high or low but how can you do this on a historical chart? The historical chart indicator has the horizontal line selection but no selection for 52 week high or low. I can select a yearly high but thats not the same as a rolling 52 week level?

Mike Medved Posted August 24, 2018 Report Share Posted August 24, 2018 I guess I could make a rolling 52 week high indicator. Wouldn't be a horizontal line. Or you could do it with a paintbar if you wanted. Do you know enough about advanced paintbars to try? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigbocarat Posted August 24, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2018 Ive done basic paintbars but not the advanced ones where you are writing code. I love a good challenge but I'm not going to have the time to get up to speed and troubleshooting advanced paintbars any time soon. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Medved Posted August 24, 2018 Report Share Posted August 24, 2018 Ok so - indicator that would take a period, and would track a rolling high and low of the period - would suffice? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigbocarat Posted August 24, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2018 yes so if I set the period to 52 weeks to indicate a high on the historical chart it would correlate to a 52 week rolling high level on other vendor charts and MT's 52 high line on a minute chart. thanks!

Mike Medved Posted August 24, 2018 Report Share Posted August 24, 2018 Like this (it's 252 because there are 252 trading days a year)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigbocarat Posted August 24, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2018 that would do it!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Medved Posted August 24, 2018 Report Share Posted August 24, 2018 Ok it will be in next beta (Jerry will email you to get the pre-beta install so you could try it now). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerry Medved Posted August 24, 2018 Report Share Posted August 24, 2018 Actually, don't think you need anything new. Rolling High/Low is the same thing as "Price Channels" indicator. Just add that and set the period to 252 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigbocarat Posted August 27, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2018 Didn't think of that-thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
