RE: Move ShowMe Point 1 Pixel away from bar

[john hamon <jhamon@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

declare an input variable - say Factor


then use it in the following manner:

	Plot1[BarNumber](Low[BarNumber] - (Factor*AvgTrueRange(5)[BarNumber]),
"ShowMe");
	Plot1[BarNumber](High[BarNumber] + (Factor*AvgTrueRange(5)[BarNumber]),
"ShowMe");

where BarNumber is the bar you want to mark, and Factor is a decimal like
0.5 or something.  i use the average true range, so that the factor is
applied to recent price action, keeping the dots generally the same distance
from the prices.

hope this helps.

Subject: Move ShowMe Point 1 Pixel away from bar


When I plot a ShowMe as a round dot, it's usually touching the high or the
low of a given bar.  Is there a way to change the formula to increase the
space between the high or low of the bar and the round dot(or cross)?
