I have taken through internet only. But it is a good indicator… Try out..

Indicator / Formula

Copy & Paste Friendly
// Trade simulation. Helps you to record your real trades and test new trading approaches without any programming skills.
// Copyright Abnash Singh 20th February 2012
// Modified April 29,2013 - for allowing last bar trades and for excluding ATR stop optionally, when own stop loss system is used.
// You can download and use this AFL, but do not make any changes in the copyright information, even if you make changes in the code
// Upto 9 trades can be plotted in any time frame.
// Once installed on Amibroker insert the vertical Study lines with labels b1, b2 etc for Buy signals AND s1, s2 etc for Short signals AND 
// e1, e2 etc for the exit signals. The AFL automatically recognises the context of the exit for a Buy OR Sell Signal. 
// Remember that the Buy AND Sell signals are generated one bar after the vertical position of the Study line. 
// This has no practical impact on entering your trade signals.
// Next you can modify the trade entry AND exit values, if required in the parameter windows AND you have your trade journal ready!
// To re-use the AFL for another trading session, please remember to delete all the existing studies, 
// by right clicking in the display area AND selecting delete al studies AND resetting the parameter window.
