How do I code my EA to detect Fibonacci Lines?

Hi,

When I draw a Fibonacci line from one point to another on the chart, I would like my EA the Swing High Price and Time, and the Swing Low Price and Time.

For example:

Swing Low Price = 1.36291, Time = 1 Oct 6:30

Swing High Price = 1.37573, Time = 1 Oct 13:30


How do I code my EA to detect the time and price of the two points that I draw the Fibonacci Lines from?

Thanks for the link.

But from what it seems, it offers an EA that can trade fibonnaci levels.

I have created a robot that can do this by specifying the actual values of the swing high and swing low inside the code.

But what I am trying to do now is to enable the robot to take the fibonacci points that I draw manually on the chart myself.

In this case, I need to know how to code my robot to read fibonacci lines that are manually draw on the chart itself.

Thanks!

Can I have the fibo line automatically set to a certain name every time I draw it?

Can I code my EA to detect any fibo on my chart and use it?

I am assuming this is not a separate script that my EA calls from but part of the code in my EA.

  for (int i=0; i<ObjectsTotal(); i++)   {                        // for each object on the chart......
    string objname = ObjectName(i);                               // get the name of the object
    // once you have the name, you can use ObjectGet() to retrieve all of the other properties......
    if (ObjectType(objname) == OBJ_FIBO)   {
      datetime fib100dt = ObjectGet(objname,OBJPROP_TIME1);       // swing high date/time
      datetime fib0dt   = ObjectGet(objname,OBJPROP_TIME2);       // swing low date/time
      double   fib100   = ObjectGet(objname,OBJPROP_PRICE1);      // swing high price
      double   fib0     = ObjectGet(objname,OBJPROP_PRICE2);      // swing low price
      double   fib382   = fib0 + 0.382 * (fib100 - fib0);         // price at 38.2 level      
      // .... and/or do whatever other stuff you want the EA to do..........
    }
  }

That's correct, you don't need a separate script.

Suggested code insert for your EA below:

I notice that if I were to use Fibo Time Zones, it also contains the name "Fibo" in it. Would there be a conflict with the data my EA reads if I draw both on the Chart? if so, how do I differentiate between the Fibonacci Retracement tool object and the Fibonacci Time Zones Object?

If I want to get the time of a Vertical Line on the chart that has an object name of "Fib2Drawing", is this the correct code?

Ignored

    datetime StartTime = ObjectGet("Fib2Drawing",OBJPROP_TIME1);

Hi,

How do I find out the lowest low or the highest high before fibotime?

Ignored

  datetime start_time = [color="Blue"](whatever time you like: StrToTime("YYYY.MM.DD HH:II:SS"))[/color];
  datetime end_time   = [color="blue"](whatever time you like: StrToTime("YYYY.MM.DD HH:II:SS"))[/color];
  int      start_bar  = iBarShift(Symbol(),Period(),start_time,0);
  int      end_bar    = iBarShift(Symbol(),Period(),end_time,0);
  double   high       = High[iHighest(Symbol(),Period(),MODE_HIGH, start_bar-end_bar+1, end_bar)];
  double   low        = Low [iLowest (Symbol(),Period(),MODE_LOW,  start_bar-end_bar+1, end_bar)];
