Discussion of article "The ZigZag Indicator: Fresh Approach and New Solutions" - page 2

 

 
By the way M5 and 4H and 1H in blue and yellow at the bottom of the chart.... is it accidental, on purpose or a signal of something, are these zones blue and yellow above the quotes....

Yours are prettier, mine are angular, maybe it depends on the broker's quote flow? I was drawing on demo-metaquotes

I have Euro H4 they are drawn on the bottom......

And where do you have a zigzag?

 
These swirls vaguely remind me of something.....
 
Is it possible to use a different zigzag and what does it take?

Charts need to be compressed horizontally to a suitable scale.

You can. To do this, you need to slightly modify the AdvancedZigZag class. And why don't you like the one I took?

Not yours exactly, in general in zigzags, I do not like that they look different depending on the settings, there is no rigid algorithm, it is not good for trading, you can certainly use zigzags always with constant settings.....

I didn't realise at once that you are the author... login confused me and signature in the article :-) do not match

So why do I have them at the bottom on euro n4 and you have them at the top (my first screen in the thread)?

I'll be free for a while, I'll ask questions, I want to get into it....

А... it's from the past.

I need to set up charts with an accurate time scale:

 
Could you please tell me how to get the MA value corresponding to the last, most recent node of the zigzag (no matter whether it is minimum or maximum)?
