Mav,
I admit I did not plough through the code you posted in detail but it seems to
me it is unavoidable that future quotes are needed to be able to determine that
a bottom or top has been found.
below I added a little extension. Only where the horizontal lines are solid it
does not use future quotes, regards, Ed

Edward,
WOW!
Beautiful!
Edward, the only differece between your and Reinsley Codes is that future is
referenced in your code.
But the concept of PH & PL is such that future referencing does not make any
difference.
Thank you very much for this easy to understand beauty.
Best regards,
Mav

Subject: [amibroker] Plotting Arrows on "Prices of Pivot Chart"
HI Reinsley,
I have tried to mark PH& PL with arrows instead of "stars" in the below
AFL of yours. I tried various combination of plotshape but failed in
every instance. Can you please help?
Thanks,
Mav
