P&F charts suck, don't use them...

Hi Bredin,

Thanks for adding in the tolerance setting

Please don't remove it! I am still interested in it, I hear what you are saying. I will post a picture as soon as I draw it up.

Assuming tolerance setting is 1/2p.

So price is making higher boxes and it gets it's first assist (price is 9.5p higher
than the last level)

Then price starts heading lower.

Price hits and crosses the -10p level and then comes within -9.5p level.

A double assist occurs and price than continues making higher and higher boxes.

The result would be 19p is only required to reverse.

First thought is that this would be pretty rare give most circumstances.

Second thought is that 19p is WORST CASE and most times it would be >19p.

Third thought is that you could code it in such a way that "double assists" are not allowed. So the first assist would count, but the second assist would not count for reversals.

I can only 2nd Jalarupa's comment,

While the world uses 100 year old PnF charts, the great Kreslik minds take it to a whole new level...

done. continuation and reversal tolerances are now independently configurable. They may also be negative.

more interesting has been doing the x1 charts


GU 50x1

since no box can be drawn on its own this was a bit of a challenge. single reverse boxes are folded into the next bar. It is unfortunate that MT4 wont let us independently color bars (or parts of bars), but its pretty obvious that when there is two same colored bars next to each other there has been a step back.

"done. continuation and reversal tolerances are now independently configurable."

Whoa you are a step ahead of me

and I have not tried to do XX x 1's yet. I suspect it will be easier in my GUI then MT4 though. Nice work!
