Fractals latest arrow
09 Sep 2022, 16:05


Hi,

Has anyone used the Fractals indicator and managed to get the latest arrow successfully? So essentially the last one?

Cheers,

Jay

Fractals are a bit strange, technically you need 5 bars to confirm a fractal, with 3 bars since the high or low minimum. I have seen the indicator but have implemented it myself instead in the way I prefer.

I don't like how the indicator works myself

The youtube channel for the inventor of the fractal is youtube.com/c/Profitunity

I know how to use it and I can see it on the chart fine. My problem is when I am trying to use it within a bot I need to get the last value and determine if it was up or down. At the moment it seems like I can get the last up and the last down but not determine what the latest value was.

Can you post the bot code or a link to which one you are using? I could have a look.
