Hello Apprentice;

I use this indicator and would really appreciate it if you could add an alert so that when it prints a 3 it would trip an alert. Would help a lot.

Thanks in advance.

For traders looking for a strategy or alert that signals when all three zigzag agree, it already exists. Go to "strategies", in the search box enter "zigzag strategy". Follow to the ZigZag Strategy by vstrelnikov. It's made for this indicator and works perfectly. Just remember the indicator repaints.

Happy trading

Thanks Mulligan,

I've just did a backtest of the zigzag strategy you mentioned and it doesn't match this indicator? Could the strategy be modified to match this indicator?

See below, the buy and sells isn't always happening at the 3rd zigzag.

Stance,
I am a trader like yourself, not an expert programmer as the folks here at Codebase. Back testing a strategy based on an indicator that repaints will not give you real world results. Neither will looking at history as it is a perfect history. It does not reflect how many times the indicator showed up then disappeared. I have used the ZigZag Strategy as an alert with allow strategy to trade set to no. It is simply a heads up to look at the situation and consider many other factors before placing a trade. Using this strategy or any other based on a repainting indicator to actually make trades is, in my opinion, a very bad idea. If you use the strategy as an alert, you will see that indeed it matches the indicator. An indicator that comes and goes comes and goes (a lot).
