Zig Zag study prints the size of the swings. How would I get the difference between the current swing high and the last swing high? for example: In the picture: I would like to know the difference between point 2 and point 1. I would like to know the difference between point 4 and point 3. etc..

tomgilb that works great. But it appears to be only reporting on the up swings and not the down swings. So it skips the lower swing sizes and only reports 2 back. If you get what I mean? I posted a pic. Date Time Of Last Edit: 2020-02-28 14:36:18

it appears to be only reporting on the up swings and not the down swings The example formulas return every reversal price, alternating both highs and lows. It works for me, not sure what you're doing. Date Time Of Last Edit: 2020-02-28 14:51:43
