that looks like a very interesting tool. can someone please convert that to the EFS? thanks.

there is a thread talk about the code in the beginners forum:

here is the code for ELD:

any help?

I've coded an esignal version. But I just detected a bug in the logic. So I've been working on a fix. My version doesn't match up excactly with the TTM version, but it's very close. Hopefully will have something posted next week.

If any TS coders could post a description of what the exact parameters are for the swingHigh/swingLow function(s) are, I would appreciate it. There seems to be no TS documentation for function parameters.

cool, looking forward to it

Hey rebkwez,

just wanted to ask wheather you already did the translation of the TTM Scalper ELD into eSignal EFS code?

In case could you please post it?

thanks

Rob

I think a version may be in the eSignal Motherlodes.

Thanks TRO,

but I am looking for the exact translation of the TTM scalper ELD into EFS.
The motherlode contains obviously a lot of really sophisticated EFS code.
But most of them are without any description how the indicator works. So
for me the best developed indicator is nothing worth if I do not exactly know how to use it. This is my personal problem.

Rob

I know someone implemented it in eSignal and I thought I had it.

In fact, someone on this forum started a thread about it, I think... SEARCH!!

Hi TRO,

sorry, but I couldn't find.

Anyway thanks

Rob
