Default Swing Indicator

Hello everyone, I am trying to code my own swing indicator that will identify a swing high or swing low for any given chart.

My question is related to identifying bars in the future and maybe someone out there can provide some insight into how I can program this.

My indicator would identify a bar as a swing low if there are 3 higher highs before the bar being analyzed and 3 higher highs after the bar being analyzed. There would also be 3 higher lows before and 3 higher lows after the bar being analyzed.

So as you can see, the bar could only be identified as a swing low bar after there has been 3 bars completed after the bar I am looking at. Basically the indicator is always working on the bar that occured 4 bars ago.

I'll continue to give it some thought, but I would appreciate any input that my be out there that would speed up my coding.

Thanks
