A buy using De Mark's Differential indicator must fulfill the following conditions

The following are the conditions necessary to produce an up arrow:
1. There must be two consecutive closes, each one less than the one prior,
2. Buying pressure for the current price bar must exceed buying pressure from the
previous price bar, and
3. Selling pressure for the current price bar must be less than selling pressure from
the previous price bar.

Where
Buying pressure is defined as the difference between
the close of the current price bar and its true low (the true low is the
lesser of either the current bar’s low or the previous price bar’s close
and

Selling pressure is represented by the difference between the close of the
current bar and its true high (the true high is the greater of the current
price bar’s high or the previous price bar’s close).

I coded it in the expert advisor using a graphic up arrow for the buy with condition:-

Cond1:=(C<Ref(C,-1)AND Ref(C,-1)<Ref(C,-2));

TL:=(If(L<Ref(C,-1),L,If(Ref(C,-1)<L,Ref(C,-1),L)));
BP:=(C-TL);
TLP:=(If(Ref(L,-1)<Ref(C,-2),Ref(L,-1),If(Ref(C,-2)<Ref(L,-1),Ref(C,-2),Ref(C,-2))));
BPP:=(Ref(C,-1)-TLP);
TH:=(If(H>Ref(C,-1),H,If(Ref(C,-1)>H,Ref(C,-1),H)));
THP:=(If(Ref(H,-1)>Ref(C,-2),Ref(H,-1),If(Ref(C,-2)>Ref(H,-1),Ref(C,-2),Ref(C,-2))));
SP:=(C-TH);
SPP:=(Ref(C,-1)-THP);
Cond2:=(BP>BPP);
Cond3:=(SP<SPP);
Cond1 AND Cond2 AND Cond3

Where TL=True low; TLP=True low of previous bar similarly TH=True High THP=True High previos bar
BP=Buying pressure; BPP=Buying pressure previous bar
SP=Selling pressure;SPP=Selling pressure previous bar

It works but gives some false signals uncharacteristic of De Mark indicators.

I think my coding has some errors---can someone help?

This is a revised version, it gives both long and short setups

Code:

Cond1:=If(Sum(C<Ref(C,-1),2)>1,1,If(Sum(C>Ref(C,-1),2)>1,-1,0));
BP:=C-Min(L,Ref(C,-1));
SP:=Max(H,Ref(C,-1))-C;
Cond2:=If(BP>Ref(BP,-1),1,If(BP<Ref(BP,-1),-1,0));
Cond3:=If(SP<Ref(SP,-1),1,If(SP>Ref(SP,-1),-1,0));
If(Cond1+Cond2+Cond3=3,1,If(Cond1+Cond2+Cond3=-3,-1,0));

I tried it out. I gives as many false signals as my version. Maybe the indicator is faulty----but considering De Mark's reputation I think that is unlikely.
Thanks anyway.

from the few web sites that give an explanation of this indicator, the coding is correct! as to the false signals, if you are in a strong trend , I would assume that there would be false signals!

All of De Mark's indicators have many qualifiers which have to be satisfied before a buy or sell signal can be generated.Information about this indicator or it's qualifiers does not appear in too many places. If you are privy to additional information about the indicator or it's qualifiers could you please share it?
