Post From: Does SC have a one time framing up and one time framing down indicator?

Suppose I create an Input called Number of Ticks (call it N) in conjunction with the Tick Size (s). Would you agree that the following formulas would be correct?

OTF(Up): L[1] > L - N*s
OTF(Down): H[1] < H + N*s

Hi Tom,

Taking into account Number of Ticks and Tick Size is a great idea.
So I understand that :
CL : Tick Size =1 Number of Ticks = 2 N*s = 2 cents
NQ : Ticks Size = 4 Numbert of Ticks = 5 N*s = 5 points
Am I correct ?

However, I realize that I made a stupid mistake in post 19 and that I misled you - sorry about that.
So let start over : here is my suggestion.

Condition for OTF(up) state entry :
L[2] < L[1] AND L[1] < L // We want two successive strict clean Higher Lows
See image for illustration of strict higher highs ; CL, 15 mn TPO, 2 ticks

For futher evaluation of OTF(up) state, I define a threshold level : LastStrictHigherLow, noted LSHL.
I will compare current Low to this threshold, as I don't want an endless downside drift each time within the N*s limit.
Condition for OTF(up) state exit :

LSHL=max(LSHL[1),L[1]) // LSHL is the max of previous Last Strict Higher Low and previous Higher Low
LastStrictHigherLow - N*s > L // Compares last Low below previous Low minus N*s

Jope this help. Sorry again for my mistake.
