  Swing High Swing Low

  xPeriod = 20 If High[1] = Highest[xPeriod](High) and High[2] < High[1] and High < High[1] then SwingHigh = High[1] DrawArrowUP(BarIndex-1,High[1]+10) Coloured(0,255,0) DrawText("#SwingHigh#", BarIndex-1, High[1]+30,Dialog,Bold,15) Coloured(0,255,0) EndIf If Low[1] = Lowest[xPeriod](Low) and Low[2] > Low[1] and Low > Low[1] then SwingLow = Low[1] DrawArrowDown(BarIndex-1,Low[1]-10) Coloured(255,0,0) DrawText("#SwingLow#", BarIndex-1, Low[1]-30,Dialog,Bold,15) Coloured(255,0,0) EndIf Return

  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15

  xPeriod = 20   If High[1] = Highest[xPeriod](High) and High[2] < High[1] and High < High[1] then SwingHigh = High[1] DrawArrowUP(BarIndex-1,High[1]+10) Coloured(0,255,0) DrawText("#SwingHigh#", BarIndex-1, High[1]+30,Dialog,Bold,15) Coloured(0,255,0) EndIf   If Low[1] = Lowest[xPeriod](Low) and Low[2] > Low[1] and Low > Low[1] then SwingLow = Low[1] DrawArrowDown(BarIndex-1,Low[1]-10) Coloured(255,0,0) DrawText("#SwingLow#", BarIndex-1, Low[1]-30,Dialog,Bold,15) Coloured(255,0,0) EndIf   Return

  Hi @Kole96

  Swing High:

  1. Find the Highest High over the past 20 periods (the period is adjustable).
  2. Check if the previous candle makes a lower High than the Highest High.
  3. Check if the next candle makes a lower High than the Highest High

  In principle, they are simple conditions that can possibly be extended with additional conditions for more adjacent candles. There are now three candles involved in a swing and you could expand this to, for example, 5 candles.

  Swing Low is the mirror image of Swing High

  hi every one hi @JS

  I do some modification, but it’s just for learning and helping, what do you think about my code about : ù
  – Drawing button, do you think it’s a goods idea, do have some tips ?
  – about IF condition, I aded tomuch condition, do you think it’s more helper for prt CPU or more complicated this way ?

  // Atributs : OffsetArrow = nOffsetA * pipsize OffsetText = nOffsetT * pipsize Pipi = pipsize // SwingHigh Condition C1 = High[1] = Highest[xPeriod](High) and High[2] < High[1] and High < High[1] // SwingLow Condition C2 = Low[1] = Lowest[xPeriod](Low) and Low[2] > Low[1] and Low > Low[1] IF C1 Then IF DrawingText Then DrawText("#SwingHigh#", BarIndex-1, High[1]+OffsetText,Dialog,Bold,15) Coloured(0,255,0) ENDIF IF DrawingArrow Then DrawArrowUP(BarIndex-1,High[1]+OffsetArrow) Coloured(0,255,0) ENDIF ENDIF IF C2 Then IF DrawingText Then DrawText("#SwingLow#", BarIndex-1, Low[1]-OffsetText,Dialog,Bold,15) Coloured(255,0,0) ENDIF IF DrawingArrow Then DrawArrowDown(BarIndex-1,Low[1]-OffsetArrow) Coloured(255,0,0) ENDIF ENDIF Return

  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29

  // Atributs : OffsetArrow   = nOffsetA * pipsize OffsetText = nOffsetT * pipsize Pipi = pipsize   // SwingHigh Condition C1 = High[1] = Highest[xPeriod](High) and High[2] < High[1] and High < High[1] // SwingLow Condition C2 = Low[1] = Lowest[xPeriod](Low) and Low[2] > Low[1] and Low > Low[1]   IF C1 Then IF DrawingText Then DrawText("#SwingHigh#", BarIndex-1, High[1]+OffsetText,Dialog,Bold,15) Coloured(0,255,0) ENDIF IF DrawingArrow Then DrawArrowUP(BarIndex-1,High[1]+OffsetArrow) Coloured(0,255,0) ENDIF ENDIF   IF C2 Then IF DrawingText Then DrawText("#SwingLow#", BarIndex-1, Low[1]-OffsetText,Dialog,Bold,15) Coloured(255,0,0) ENDIF IF DrawingArrow Then DrawArrowDown(BarIndex-1,Low[1]-OffsetArrow) Coloured(255,0,0) ENDIF ENDIF   Return

  At first glance I can’t find anything wrong.Try increasing the units up to 5K, or even more.

  You should post the ITF file, as some variables are missing, so I can test it thoroughly.

  so this the ITF file “Temps – Swing High”, it’s working correctly like on the Photo 01

  but this ITF file “Temps – Swing High Weekly” with the instruction in line one with TimeFrame (Weekly) on the Daily chart I have the Photo 02 :

  TimeFrame (Weekly)

  1	TimeFrame (Weekly)

  the Idea it’s just to use the idea of SwingHigh and SwingLow on a daily chart with weekly value
