[EquisMetaStock Group] Duration of Rally Indicator.

I've certainly taken enough from this board, so here's a very modest 
contribution in an attempt to try to get back even.:)

This indicator measures the duration of rallies.  (I've been doing a 
little research into how long rallies might be expected to last 
before a correction of X% amount might occur, and dreamed this up as 
an aid.)  Although it can be used with any stock (I assume), I 
personally use it against the SP500 as a gauge for what might happen 
with the overall market.


{Counts the number of trading days since a low was formed during a 
reaction of X% from the highest high of the rally.}

hhvperiods:=Input("Time Periods for HHV",5,120,40);
PR:=Input("Percentage of Reaction",5,50,10);

BarsSince(L<HHV(H,hhvperiods)*(1-PR/100)AND L=LLV(L,10))


At its default, it measures how many trading days there have been 
since a low was formed during a sell-off of -10% from the highest 
highs of the past 40 periods.  My observations suggest that any 
rallies of longer than 120 periods are vulnerable to a -10% 
correction from wherever the high forms.  Not a forecasting tool, 
simply an objective measure of when a rally might be getting a 
little "mature" so that you don't overstay your welcome.:)))


Luck to all,

Sebastian
