I do not use MT4.. and therefore do not know how to code it for you... however it would seem a quick way to accomplish what your after is a moving average with the period set to 1 and multiplying the close by -1. How it appears to some degree may depend on how MT4 handles scaling and or its adjust-ability.

May need to sleep on this...or wait for fresh blood to arrive with an opinion.

The fact that you just want a mirrored image of the same pair, has me thinking it has to be doable. Still not sure about as a line chart, though.

since bulls and bears want to go to the 288ties.. its a fair chance we will go here w/o breaking the range of the participator.. bulls range up to 2993... bears last nights high (2979.x)... if we break neither its indicating we will go to the 288ties. and that's 2854 for the bulls.. looking to long there or soon after if weakness in a bear style is shown. and void if below 2802... there are others below .. no since talking about them until 2802 is broken.. the crap that happens between is just that.

closed -8...looking for another after 3005.5.. with weakness. since the break is for 3113.. more cautious on short. but will target 2804 if all looks right..

MT4 would do the same. It looks funky as it moves, but there are only two points to a TL...they stay fixed to the price.

Bingo!

As a matter of interest...well...the two programs are worlds apart, but would it be easy for you to do those both as Line charts, or would you have to do the inverse as a 1 MA?

^That IS an inverse of EU...spot on...no bollocks.


Meta...period 1 MA (equivalent to a line chart)...

http://www.forexfactory.com/attachme...1&d=1350368630

Would need to plot the inverse as well, with different colour option.

when you look at i.. look how it always comes back to itself.. the center depending on tf, is always the pp.. in real time. the average away from the center is the entry or the outer edge.. the tp is the pp.. setup a iso and its a a scalp machine.

I scrolled to a crossing part in the 2nd pic.

Have to guess it could be done in MT.
