I will see if I can mess around with it and change it to the Tradeguider H-Stop icons.

{quote} Looks like the one your looking at paints a line, where-as the other one (V3) uses wingdings crosses. They will both be the same likely when you adjust the settings.
yeah. the one you shared makes it a bit easier. but regarding settings, there is absolutely no luck in mimicking malcolm's charts no matter which one i use. lol

I did: ATR Period 2 for each indicator.
Then: Kv 2, and Kv 2.5

Its not bang on but its reasonably close. Just a case of changing the Arrow Properties to match TG now though which im struggling to do tbh. Ive not got a clue about coding, tried to alter the arrow properties in metaeditor with no luck.

How do you use this for trading?
Is this for putting trailing stops? Or for spotting a potential trend change?

{quote} How do you use this for trading? Is this for putting trailing stops? Or for spotting a potential trend change?
it's based on ATR calculation so to get an idea where to place SL. one can trail as well. but before that, one needs to look at immediate background for supply demand, signs of strength/weakness and then instead of putting tight stop, it can be used following this H-stop thing. Malcolm has mentioned simple rules regarding this VSA system. you may look back on those posts as well.

EDIT: it's just a complementary tool. there is no any specific tool which can be used as standalone indi for decision making. if taken it as rule you don't short until ATR stops are above the price combined with VSA signs and vice versa.

Hi, did you draw the OR high and low lines manually or was it an indicator?
