ZigZag on last bar

[ssierra]

Hi,

ZigZag consider x bar on right an left. Is there a way to consider only to left and then join the opposite to the previous maximum minimum?

What I want to do is that if the standard zig-zag indicator finishes in a high I would like to join to the lowest minimum to the right. This will allow to have a live zig-zag that could be confirmed latter or no.

Cheers,

Unforutunately this is not possible.

Thanks,

But, is it not possible due to a technical restriction in NT or due to a “math” restriction?
I know the standard zigzag indicator doesn’t allow this but i would like to find a way to do it.

Cheers,

I'm not sure how exactly you would accomplish what you want with regards to the regular ZigZag. The regular ZigZag lags behind the market which is why it looks so good on a historical chart. You would need to completely change its algorithm to do what you want and that degree of conceptualization we cannot offer support for. You may want to contact one of our NinjaScript Consultants and discuss it with them if you don't want to try your hand at it yourself.
