The price you mark

A swing point is one exact price, taken from the extreme wick of the two candles, and checked by dropping one timeframe.

A swing point is not an area on the chart. It is one price, and the rest of this module measures single candles against it.

Take the extreme wick

A swing takes two candles, so two candles have a claim on the price.

Take the extreme of the pair. For a swing high, the higher of the two highs. For a swing low, the lower of the two lows.

Figure 1 · Three swing highs on the same chart, one made of two large candles, one of four small ones, and one where the falling candle carries the higher wick, each marked at its extreme wick
