What I don't like is its lag, I reckon 3 bars should be ok, but it takes a lot longer. What do you think about substituting fractal with recent swing calculation? It checks 2 to the right, 2 bars to the left to see whether there's a high or low, then it's 3 bar lag, more signals though too.

Anyhow, as this forum is still in a sabotaged state, you better check your email Any comments you have, post only here!

So far I know I need to add a line of code to make it a custom indicator

But I don't understand how to change the fractal from setting buy orders at up fractals to entering the market after a fractal becomes visible(short for up fractals)

I've only programmed very simple things in Visual Basic and don't understand which variable sets the buy price.

So basicly when an up fractal becomes visible I wish to go short and vice versa for a down fractal

I had no problem programming this a few years ago into a broker that used a simple language to buy and sell I won't mention it here so its not advertising

Thanks for any help you can offer I think this would be a good way to use a fractal and I only need it for a type 1 fractal
