Hi,

Does anyone have some example code of how to detect peaks and troughs in a moving average line? Something liked the mocked up screenshot below.

Regards,

John

I tried modifying a zigzag indicator but I haven't been successful. I was wondering if someone else has been down this road before me?

The same way you would keep track of peak equity and max DD. It's not easy...perhaps useing global variables on each candle close with MA values and replace them when they go high or low....tick by tick or candle by candle....
Staying in my lane...
