Its not my code but I downloaded as freeware, it basically draws lines on the chart showing the highest and lowest price for that trading day, it takes into account the whole of the candle including the shadows.
What I am trying to do is to get the indicator to only use the body of the candle and to ignore the shadow.
I hope this is better explained lol
Thank you
Antony
