Dear Everyone,
I came across a post in Paritech forums, where the member who posted wanted to know how to write a Kagi exploration. It goes like this:
Topic: Metastock - Kagi chart Exploration
I have been using Kagi charts to select stocks now for some time on a manual basis (looking at each chart individually) and now would like to be able to run an exploration to look for situations where the thin line turns to a thick line. More specifically, I have changed the colours to: Thick lines - Green, Thin lines - Red; therefore I would like to find stocks where the red line has just turned Green.
I have no idea as to how to construct such an exploration. Is there anyone who can help me please.
Cheers
Lee

Variation:=3;
up:=Peak(1,C,Variation);
dn:=Trough(1,C,Variation);
zup:=Ref(up,-1);
zdn:=Ref(dn,-1);
long entry / exit short : Cross(C,zup)
short entry / exit long: Cross(ZDN,C)
is this ok?

That's what I want to know too. Is this ok? Are not the Peak and Trough functions based on hindsight? Kindly enlighten.

This is what I understand from the codes given, and
able to get pass the error message and do an exploration. Here are the
exploration codes:
--------------------
Col A: Close
C
Col B: Vol
V
Col C: Buy
Variation:=3;
up:=Peak(1,C,Variation);
dn:=Trough(1,C,Variation);
zup:=Ref(up,-1);
zdn:=Ref(dn,-1);
Cross(C,zup)
Col D: Sell
Variation:=3;
up:=Peak(1,C,Variation);
dn:=Trough(1,C,Variation);
zup:=Ref(up,-1);
zdn:=Ref(dn,-1);
Cross(zdn,C)
Filter:
(colC=1 OR colD=1)
AND V>300000
--------------------
Notes:
1. I added a volume filter of min 300k shares, you may wish to remove the last line if you don't want the volume filter.
2.
After exploration, click on the report's heading Buy or Sell, all
counters will be sorted, with all Buy grouped together (as 1) under buy
column; repeat for sell column.
3. Though I am able to get past
the error message, the filter result don't looks right when I open the
kagi chart. Maybe the way the formula of kagi (those
peak(1,C,Variation)...) are not right.
Not sure if this is helpful.
