@antojoseph take a look at the following code - I modified the Gann9 to start at 9:20 and use target calculations, ported the Trail Stop and Take Profit indicators and their bar coloring, and added in a study by mobius called scalper pivots that gets pretty close to the pivots the AFL code uses.

plot TrailStop = Highest( Close - 2 * ATR(10), 15 );
plot ProfitTaker = ExpAverage( high, 13 ) + 2 * ATR(10);
profittaker.setdefaultColor(color.lime);
trailstop.setdefaultColor(color.red);

got it; i'll play around with it, if you happen to see a better pivot set up and update the code. I'd appreciate it truly if you share it here too. thanks!
which platform is that on? I tried to add it to TOS, but my levels look funny. doesn't look like your setup or any other setups that people posted up. Is there a setting i have to change? Which version is the latest one to download?
Did you know that clicking on a member's avatar will allow you to see when a member was last seen on the uTS forum? @babouin77 has not been seen in a while.
the code doesn't work. Is there version that I should be downloading?
you input the price.
@bigboss hi, just chance upon this script, it looks pretty impressive on SPY, just like to know if the signal will repaint? thank u
hi, can you share the strategy version with me? thank you in advance.I am not seeing a red dot when the price hit $3845, can u please help understand what time you checked?
They were just manual targets from this spreadsheet.
AddOrder(OrderType.BUY_TO_OPEN, 3200);
AddOrder(OrderType.SELL_TO_CLOSE, 3400);I was curious. When does the does the arrows get triggered or when does the arrow actually show up. Is it after the move had already happened? Is there a way the indicator shows up 1 bar after?
Those arrows repaint. The arrows are painted after the fact when the low or high has been established.
