Gann Hi-Lo MQ4 or just the formula

I am building an EA that uses Gann hi-lo as a part of the decision making process. I have an indicator that shows the hi-lo but I would like to include the calculation internally to my EA instead of calling the indicator externally. I have looked at several places online but they want to sell you an expensive book to get the formula.

If anyone has the formula or the MQ4 version of the Gann hi-lo indicator and is willing to share it, I would really appreciate it.

Thanks

Hi magnumfreak,

Is this it:?

I believe that will work. Thanks. Looks rather simple once you see the formula.

Hi magnumfreak,

This is supposed to be used as a guide for trailing? I wrote an indicator loosely based on the link I posted above and I don't know what it is supposed to do, although it looks like a guide for a trailing stop.

Quite ironic as I have writen a trailing stop based on iHighest/iLowest, perhaps 4, 5, 7 days ago:



I'm sure someone may have wrote the same thing or similair, for example ChandelierStops_v1 by IgorAD precedes mine and is very well done.

From what I can see, It can be used as a guide for trailing or as an early trend direction indication. I am working on combining it with 1 or 2 other indicators to build an automated trading strategy around it. I think I have the indicators that I need, I just need to improve on the exit strategy.

Thanks for the indicator you built. I will look into it, you may have saved me some programming time. Thanks.

Once I am satisfied with the results, I will post the complete system, EA and indicators for everyone to use. Hopefully by Mid January. I am getting a little tired of staring at the screen waiting for setups to come my way.

Hi again,

Although it is a little rough and I don't know if it replicates the MetaStock code correctly as I don't use MetaStock.

The one I am using draws differently. Here is the indicator ex4 file that I am using. It follows closely to what you programmed when I set the lookback to 3.

Thanks for all of your help.

Nice too see someone else is having fun with this too.....

I am probably 75% there, you want to be using to IMa's with loopback of 10 one high one low, I am just trying to get the crossover rules 100% correct on my version, as the Close[] does not quite behavce as I expected..

Am currently using this lime though as a stop gap

Idx3[i] = iCustom(NULL, 0, "###Gann_HiLo_Activator_v2###",10,0,i);

Lets you get access to the req indicator with a loopback of 10.

I will post some code in a couple of days if I get the little beggar working...

Happy Xmas all!!!
