RPoint: A HiLo-Based ZigZag with X-Point Reversals
Summary
RPoint is described as a chart indicator that plots an X-point reversal layout using a ZigZag derived from the high and low price series. The note identifies the indicator’s author and says it was first implemented in MQL4 and published in 2007. Its core idea is to represent price swings as a sequence of reversal points, giving traders a visual way to inspect turning points and chart structure.
The document provides no parameter settings, calculation details, examples of signals, or performance evidence. It does not explain how reversal thresholds are determined, whether plotted points can move as new prices arrive, or how the indicator should be used to enter or exit trades. The description is therefore useful only as a brief identification of the indicator’s basis and purpose. Traders would need implementation details and independent testing before relying on its plotted reversals for analysis or trading decisions.
