Attached is an ELA file with updated code for linear
and log scale versions of the Andrews Pitchfork indicator. To see what's
new, refer below to my header notes for this revision as well as for
my prior ones. Once again, let me thank Gregory Woods for the original
code. Without his generosity this would not be possible.
Regards,
Chris

{ Notes to Chris Cheatham November 11, 2001 3rd revision of
Gregory Woods Andrews pitchfork code Additions, Deletions,
etc.:1. Much of code has been rewritten to shrink size,
permit more options in TS4.2. Made selected major
pitchfork lines thicker.3. Expansion codes (BX
codes) have been revised. X1 and X2 are the same as before. X3
now adds expansions below main
pitchfork. X4 now adds expansions above main pitchfork. Added X5 for
even bigger expansions below, and X6 for
even bigger expansions above.4. Add "X4" code for
"semi-Schiff" pitchfork. If you use AX4, A1X4, etc. the start point
will be 1/4 of the AB distance, instead
of 1/2 for a Schiff pitchfork.5. For Babson channels, moved the
"handle" to show the origin of the channel. For example, using an AB
Babson code the long handle line will connect
A and B, rather than being the median line previously.

{ Notes to Chris Cheatham July 15, 2001 2nd revision of
Gregory Woods Andrews pitchfork code
Major Additions, Deletions, etc.:1.
Separate linear scale and log scale versions.2. TS2000i
compatible.3. Only allows 4 pitchforks due to TS4 code
size limitations.4. Added code to make Schiff offset
starting point for pitchfork. To do this, instead of using
"A" or "A1", etc. use "AX3",
"A1X3".5. Added code so as not to require capital
letters.6. Added inputs for
colors.7. Deleted "AB" and "AC" line
segments.8. Added Shoulder Pattern code. Think
of this as the opposite of the Schiff offset. If you use
"AX1", "A1X1", etc. the pitchfork angles
will be shifted such that the 1/4 divider line comes out of the
starting point, rather than the median
line. (the median (middle) line is the 1/2 divider.)9.
Added steeper Shoulder Pattern code.. Sometimes shifting from a basic
pitchfork (A, B, C) to X1
code (AX1, B, C) still does not create a steep enough angle to fit market
activity. If you use "AX2,
B, C", the angles will be shifted such that a theoretical 1/8 divider line comes
from the "A" point, instead of the
1/4 divider in the case of "AX1, B, C". 11. Added code for
subdivision lines. If you add "X1" to the "B" code, as in" BX1"
additional divider lines will be
drawn at the midpoint of the other lines.12. Added code for expansion
lines. "BX2", instead of "BX1" adds addtional lines outside of the
existing pitchfork, instead of inside
for "X1" code. 13. Added code for wider expansion
lines. "BX3", instead of "BX2" moves the expansion lines further
out than "BX2".14. Added
"CX" codes. The idea of "CX" codes is to permit you to anticipate the "C"
point based on knowing the median
line (1/2 divider) , the 1/4 divider line or the 3/4 divider line. "CX2"
causes the pitchfork to be drawn
in such a way that the "CX2" point is the median line, rather than the "C"
pitchfork line. Likewise, a
point you label "CX1" will be the 1/4 divider line, and the remainder of the
pitchfork will be drawn
accordingly. A point you label "CX3" will be the 3/4 divider line.
These codes can be combined with
the various "A" codes for pitchfork variations also.15. Added
code to also draw Babson channels. If you use "AB, B, C" a line will be
drawn from "A" to "B", with
corresponding parallel Babson channel lines drawn accordingly.
Likewise, if you use "AC, B, C"
a line will be drawn from
"A" to "C", with corresponding parallel lines. Remember that the "C"
point must ALWAYS come
after the "A" and "B" points for all tools. Either "A" or "B" points may
come first.16. Hint for ease of use: Buy a windows
macro program such as macro express (macros.com, about
$30) write some simple
little keystroke macros like 1. typing the A,B,C, A1,B1,C1, etc. on the chart,
and 2. automatically
refreshing ( turn status off and on again). MUCH more
efficient.
Many thanks to Gregory Woods for his outstanding original
code.
