Destination Bars¶
v.2.1.0.0

Overview¶
Finds runs of bars that all closed the same way - N or more up bars, or down bars, in a row. Each run is wrapped in a capsule that grows with it and deepens in colour the longer it gets, labelled with its length and its move in ticks (for example 9▲ +34t).
Parameters¶
| Parameter | Default | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Bullish bars period | 7 | indicates the period of bars to determine the bullish direction |
| Bearish bars period | 7 | indicates the period of bars to determine the bearish direction |
| Show direction on chart | On | A capsule around each run of N bars or more, with its length and move. |
| Bullish color | olive | The colour of an up run's capsule and label. |
| Bearish color | medium purple | The colour of a down run's capsule and label. |
| Label distance (ticks) | 4 | Ticks between the capsule and its label: over an up run, under a down run. |
