Can anyone help me with his? I want the indicator to plot an up or down arrow when ever the ADXAvg crosses ADX. And not a balloon but a print at the cross over location. Similar to the indicator picture below
macd_plot.AssignValueColor(if invertNegMACD then if HistoBar >= 0 then Color.CYAN else Color.MAGENTA else Color.CYAN);
macd_plot.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.HISTOGRAM);
macd_plot.SetLineWeight(MACDWidth);
def hiDiff = high - high[1];
def loDiff = low[1] - low;
def plusDM = if hiDiff > loDiff and hiDiff > 0 then hiDiff else 0;
def minusDM = if loDiff > hiDiff and loDiff > 0 then loDiff else 0;
def ATR = WildersAverage(TrueRange(high, close, low), DMI_Len);
plot "DI+" =
if showADX_DMI then 100 * WildersAverage(plusDM, DMI_Len) / ATR
else Double.NaN;
plot "DI-" =
if showADX_DMI then 100 * WildersAverage(minusDM, DMI_Len) / ATR
else Double.NaN;
def DX =
if ("DI+" + "DI-" > 0) then 100 * AbsValue("DI+" - "DI-") / ("DI+" + "DI-")
else 0;
plot ADX = if showADX_DMI then WildersAverage(DX, DMI_Len) else Double.NaN;
plot ADXAvg = if showADX_DMI then ExpAverage(ADX, ADX_Avg) else Double.NaN;
plot NoTrend = No_Trend;
plot LowTrend = Low_Trend;
plot StrngTrend = Strong_Trend;
plot ArrowUp = if ADXAvg crosses above ADX
then low
else double.nan;
ArrowUP.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.Arrow_UP);
ArrowUP.SetLineWeight(3);
ArrowUP.SetDefaultColor(Color.Green);
plot ArrowDN = if ADXAvg crosses below ADX
then high
else double.nan;
ArrowDN.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.Arrow_DOWN);
ArrowDN.SetLineWeight(3);
ArrowDN.SetDefaultColor(Color.Red);
Alert(ArrowUp, " ", Alert.Bar, Sound.Chimes);
Alert(ArrowDN, " ", Alert.Bar, Sound.Bell);
Your code is calling out the high and the low of the underlying, not of the indicator, hence why you're getting floating arrows. One option is to assign the high and low mark to an arbitrarily number (ie. overbought, oversold). The other, similar to the first attachment you have, is delete the if/then parts of the statement. It should plot at the indiciator value
