New comment

Its very difficult for me to explain it in English but I hope u guys can understand me:

example:

  1. candle0 open=1euro close=1euro low=1euro high=1euro 
  2. candle0 open=1euro close=2euro low=1euro high=2euro (price rises to 2 euro)
  3. candle0 open=1euro close=3euro low=1euro high=3euro (price rises to 3 euro)
  4. candle0 open=1euro close=5euro low=1euro high=5euro (price rises to 5 euro)
  5. candle0 open=1euro close=4euro low=1euro high=5euro (price falls from 5 euro to 4 euro)

i want to mark the point where the course stops getting new highs starts falling back example

course falls from high 5 euro to 4 euro I want a Dot sign exactly on 4 euro on the current candle

no further dots (I mean if price rises now to 9 euro and falls back to 8 euro no more dot)
