Input Information

Name Expression Default Description
NumDays Numeric 3 Number of days in the price extension (defined as a sharp, multiple-day move).
MinConsolIndex Numeric 2.25 This input should be in the 1-to-NumDays range; the larger the number, the more extended the price.

LoLineColor Numeric LightGray Plot color for the true lowest value.

Description

This ShowMe looks for down (up) reversals after up (down) price extensions. (A price extension is a strong, multiple day move.) More specifically, it looks for a down (up) setup and trigger on the day after an up (down) price extension has been completed. Only the first trigger of the day is recognized.
