Hi everyone,

I have been playing around with some ideas for a scalping method and while I have traded for a little while I have never written programs in NinjaTrader before.

Is someone able to write an indicator that identifies the following chart pattern:
- There are at least 3 bars with equal Highs below a 12-period EMA
- This is followed by 2 bars with equal Highs above the 12-period EMA
- The first of these 2 bars has a range (e.g. High - Low) of no more than 4 ticks

Once this has occurred there should be something like a dot or so to signal the presence of this pattern.

I am hoping that this request is not too demanding so that someone versed in Ninjascript can do this in a flash.

Thanks a lot in advance for any help.

Regards,
thenc
