The Gann Swing Trading Indicator marks two-bar swings on a currency pair chart, as defined by William Gann, without repainting.
Diamonds mark the bar that forms a swing by breaking a high or low for easier visualization of lag. The indicator considers internal and external bars.
- Internal Bar: Current High is lower than the previous High, and current Low is higher than the previous Low. These combinations are ignored by the indicator.
- External Bar: Current High is higher than the previous High, and current Low is lower than the previous Low. In this case, the break of the previous High or Low is counted if the closing price breaks it. A bullish or bearish break is determined based on which price was broken. If no break occurs, the external bar is ignored.
- Bullish Swing Criteria: Current High and Low are below the previous highest High and Low (normal break) or current Close is below the highest Low (external bar where current High is above the previous highest High, and current Low is below the previous highest Low).
- Bearish Swing Criteria: Current High and Low are above the previous lowest High and Low (normal break), or current Close is above the lowest High (external bar where current High is above the previous lowest High, and current Low is below the previous lowest Low).
