loomis-sar

[skylor]

I saw a .png image somewhere a while back called "loomis-sar" and can't find it again.

It was a parabolic sar indicator .efs study...quite a nice one visually. Can anyone tell me if this is available? I would like to use it as a stop loss indicator.

Thanks ahead,

Neil

Hello Skylor,

Here is the image I believe you are looking for. In regards to its availability, I'll let someone else expand upon that, as I'm not familiar with the premise of its creation. Thanks.

Thanks Duane,

I figured the reference to the loomis-sar had something to do with me. I just couldn't find the png.

I looked thru my stuff and saw many efs with the letters sar in them.

Perhaps I can find the efs that created that picture and post it later today or tonight.

I think the code was this simple...

var study = new ParabolicStudy(0.02, 0.02, 0.2);

function preMain() {
setPriceStudy(true);
setPlotType(PLOTTYPE_SQUAREWAVE,0);
setDefaultBarThickness(1, 0);
setStudyTitle("sar0");
}


function main() {

sar0=study.getValue(ParabolicStudy.STOP);

return sar0;
}

Thanks very much for the responses, you all are very generous with your time.

I have gotten it to work (attached), any idea how to tighten the SAR to the price action? I am not sure which line to play with (or which numbers do what) and need to keep some issues on a short leash.

Thanks for any help...

Neil
