I am going nuts trying to build a function via the strategy editor where enter long position is executed when an indicator such as Swing, ZigZag, or Darva lower line forms. I got it to work an hour ago but then started tweaking and completely messed it up. So now I can not get back.

Hello relogical,
The Swing, ZigZag and Darvas indicators can have their plot points recalculated as incoming data is updated, thus making it challenging to use in a strategy via programmatic calls. They are first and foremost mean to be used as visual trading tools With that said you can still use the indicators for your calculations but would need to understand what price points can be accessed at which time programmatically, since those can be different from the historically plotted ones.
