This is a simplified version that may work better.

{ Stop Trail ATR }
[Target=price]
atrper :=Input("ATR period: ",14);
atrfact:=Input("ATR multiplier: ",2);
loss:=atrfact*ATR(atrper);
trail:=
If(C>PREV and Ref(C,-1)>PREV, Max(PREV,C-loss),
If(CIf(C>PREV, C-loss, C+loss)));
Trail;
[linestyle=pricecolor]
[color=rgb(0,174,0)] if(C>=Trail,1,0);
[color=rgb(255,85,85)] if(C

----------------------------------------------------------------

Also Wilder had a volatility stop which includes highs and lows.

{ Wilder Volatility Stop Trail }
[Target=price]
Mult:=Input("ATR Multiplier",2.2,1);
Nb:=if(Mult<3,7,Int(Mult*2+1));
Long :=Ref(HHV(C,Nb),-1) - (Ref(ATR(Nb),-1)*Mult);
Short:=Ref(LLV(C,Nb),-1) + (Ref(ATR(Nb),-1)*Mult);
trail:=
If(C>PREV and Ref(C,-1)>PREV, Max(PREV,Long),
If(CIf(C>PREV, Long, Short)));
Trail;
[linestyle=pricecolor]
[color=rgb(0,174,0)] if(C>=Trail,1,0);
[color=rgb(255,85,85)] if(C

Hi SayaPolo,

There is a discussion of the supertrend indicator in a J B Volatility profit taker thread from sometime back, which can be found here:

http://www.bullcharts.com.au/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=433&PN=4&title=j-b-volatility-profit-taker

and Maximo coded it up as an indicator for bullcharts like this:

>G'day Jeremy,

>I've updated the code, more accurate and simplified, no repaint.

[Description="SuperTrend - Max"]

[target=price]

Mult:=Input("ATR Multiplier",3,1);

Nb:=Input("Nb Periods",8,1);

method:=inputma("Method",Wilders);

price:=Input("1=Median, 2=Close",1,1);

TruRan:=ma(ATR(1),Nb,method)*Mult;

HiLimit:=if(price=1,(H+L)/2-TruRan,C-TruRan);

LoLimit:=if(price=1,(H+L)/2+TruRan,C+TruRan);

LB:=If(HiLimit>=PREV and HiLimit<C,HiLimit,If(C<PREV,HiLimit-0.1,PREV));

UB:=If(LoLimit<PREV and LoLimit>C,LoLimit,If(C>PREV,LoLimit+0.1,PREV));

Trend:=if(UB>ref(UB,-1),1,if(LB<ref(LB,-1),-1,prev));

[drawundefined=gap]

[Color=lime green]

if(Trend=1 and hist(Trend,1)=-1,LB,if(Trend=-1,UB,undefined));

[Color=red]

if(Trend=-1 ,UB,if(hist(Trend,1)=1 ,LB,undefined));

[Color=lime green]

if(Trend=1 or Trend=0,LB,undefined);

{ Paint bars}

Flag:=input("PaintBars On=1, Off=0",0,0,1);

[linestyle=pricecolor; color=rgb(98,217,98)]

If(Trend=1 and Flag=1,1,if(Flag=0 and C>O,1,undefined));

[color=rgb(226,118,118)] {red}

If(Trend=-1 and Flag=1,1,if(Flag=0 and C<=O,1,undefined));

Hi all,

Has anyone coded into BullChart the Supertrend indicator? I would like to use it as either as a Trend trading indicator or as a stop, similar to the Parabolic SAR. I found this in the internet but not sure how to code this into BullChart.

The supertrend indicator calculation goes as stated below-

Up = (high + low / 2 + multiplier x ATR

Down = (high + low) / 2 – multiplier x ATR

Calculation of Average True Range –

[(Prior ATR x 13) + Current TR] / 14

Here, 14 indicates a period. Hence, the ATR is derived by multiplying the previous ATR with 13. Add the latest TR and divide it by period.

Greatful for any assistance.

Cheers,

SayaPolo
