Hi all, Does anybody use T.Demark`s trend lines in Tech Analysis? Can you advice me any free software which can draw them automatically?
Seems like you need this, but itâs not free http://www.marketinout.com/screens/industry.php?picker=thomas_demark_trend_lines
It has DeMark on it... but don't know if it does the trendline thingy... I have not tried it... don't even know if it compiles...

don't know who is DeMark, or what Camouflage does... but here's the code... Code: {TD Camouflage} Vars: expltr(0); Inputs: LL(5), HH(5), RiskPerc(3); Vars : Stp(0); Condition1 = Close < Close[1] and Low = Lowest(Low,LL) and Close >= Open and Close > Low + (Range*.5); Condition2 = Close > Close[1] and High = Highest(High,HH) and Close <= Open and Close < Low + (Range*.5); {--** Buy Signal **--} If Condition1 then begin Buy this bar on close; Stp = Low; End; {--** Sell Signal **--} If Condition2 then begin Sell this bar on close; Stp = High; End; {--** StopLoss **--} ExitLong at Stp * (1 - .01*RiskPerc) stop; ExitShort at Stp * (1 + .01*RiskPerc) stop;
