Is it possible to have the Fibonacci Lines be an indicator? Aka when close crosses above the lower Fibonacci line I can buy and sell when it crosses the middle line?

Fibonacci lines have to be based on anchor points. I guess the anchor points could be determined algorithmically, but it isn't something that lends itself to an Indicator.

The best expression for this, I feel, is a C# Coded Strategy where you can determine your anchor points, calculate the retracements, and place the trades accordingly.

Here's a quick demo based on some legacy code by @Cone:
CODE:
using WealthLab.Backtest; using WealthLab.Core; using WealthLab.Indicators; using System.Drawing; using System.Collections.Generic; namespace WealthScript6 {    public class DivergenceExample2 : UserStrategyBase    {       PeakTroughCalculator _ptc;       double[] levels = { 0.382, 0.5, 0.618 };              //create indicators and other objects here, this is executed prior to the main trading loop       public override void Initialize(BarHistory bars)       {          _ptc = new PeakTroughCalculator(bars, 5.0, PeakTroughReversalTypes.Percent);          PlotStopsAndLimits(2);       }       //execute the strategy rules here, this is executed once for each bar in the backtest history       public override void Execute(BarHistory bars, int idx)       {          if (!HasOpenPosition(bars, PositionType.Long))          {             PeakTrough pk = _ptc.GetPeak(idx);             if (pk == null) return;             PeakTrough prevT = _ptc.GetPrevTrough(pk);             if (prevT == null) return;             int b1 = pk.PeakTroughIndex, b2 = prevT.PeakTroughIndex;             double p1 = bars.High[b1];                          DrawLine(b1, pk.Value, b2, prevT.Value, Color.Blue, 2);                          //Fibonacci Retracements             double dec = b1 - b2;             for (int n = 0; n < levels.Length; n++)             {                double ret = p1 - dec * levels[n];                int endBar = b1 +10 > idx ? idx : b1 +10;                DrawLine(b1, ret, endBar, ret, Color.Blue, 2, LineStyles.Dotted);                if (bars.Close[idx] > ret)                   PlaceTrade(bars, TransactionType.Buy, OrderType.Limit, ret, levels[n].ToString("0.0##"));             }          }          else          {             Position p = LastPosition;             double tgt = p.EntryPrice * 1.10; //10% gain             double stop = p.EntryPrice * 0.95; //-5% stop             PlaceTrade(bars, TransactionType.Sell, OrderType.Stop, stop);             PlaceTrade(bars, TransactionType.Sell, OrderType.Limit, tgt);          }       }    } }
