Can someone share the .eld that plots these big swing dots ? I picked up this chart from one of the forum posts. However I could not find the .eld file .

I don't download code that I have no idea of first verifying veracity of so if you post the code itself I will take a look.

But it seems likely you haven't formatted it correctly.

Thanks for having a look.I have no knowledge coding..apologies if I make mistakes.

inputs:
MALength( 20 ),
Price( Close ),
UseGradientColor( true ),
NegGradColor( Red ),
PosGradientColor( Green ) ;

variables:
MAValue( 0 ),
MASlope( 0 ),
MAAngle( 0 ) ;

MAValue = AverageFC( Price, MALength ) ;

MASlope = ( MAValue - MAValue[1] ) * (PriceScale / MinMove ) ;

MAAngle = ArcTangent( MASlope ) ;

if UseGradientColor then
SetPlotColor( 1, GradientColor( MAAngle, -90, 90, NegGradColor, PosGradientColor )) ;

Plot1( MAAngle, "MA Angle" ) ;

kris123,

from the way the code is written I don't think it is responsible for the dots, but I would expect to see an oscillator line.
Your best bet might be posting in the thread where the image was posted and asking if someone can point you towards the code.

Regards,

ABCTG

Those appear to be Fractals, Bill Williams indicator, NT8 has several plug and play templates. The best is BW Fractal.
BW Fractal (BWFrctl)
The Fractal Breakout is the least aggressive of the five Bill Williams indicators. It encompasses a series of market moves and is often used to confirm a buy or sell signal. The first move outlined by the system occurs when a market has made a new high or low. Next, the market reverses and retreats to prior levels. Finally, the market trades out of its old range again, this time even farther.

Stand alone does not provide a consistant signal, used with OB OS Stochastic and MACDBB offers consistant signals.
