Andrew's Pitchfork

[goldfly]

Can you post the code for Andrew's pitchfork? Or can I have it otherwise? Thanks.

If you are asking that of NinjaTrader then we will not publish our source code.

Just the pitchfork? It can't be a military secret.......

Could it be made into shared code?

It can be plotted but there's no apparent control over size color or the number and placement of the lines. I'd like to make an auto-plot with all these ablilities.

I'd rather not have to try to remanufacture what's already been done. Is there any help you can give?

Unfortunately not. We cannot offer support in this direction.

// Andrews Pitchfork V3.3
//
// Use Peak() & Trough() to get peaks & troughs.
// This version deals with adjacent peaks and adjacent
// troughs, i.e. two peaks without an intervening trough or vice-versa.
// It goes backwards from the selected bar until it has a set of
// peak,trough,peak or trough,peak,trough points to use for calulating
// the pitchfork. When 2 or more peaks or 2 or more troughs are adjacent
// it only uses the last one, i.e. the rightmost one, of the series.
//
// This version only uses the zigzag peak troughs after they have been
// revealed by the subsequent price action. i.e. the price has to have
// moved off the high/low by the zigzag pct before the peak or trough will
// be used.
//
// This version plots the trendlines as exponential curves that plot as
// straight lines on an semilog chart.
