Hi @Maxim Dmitrievsky,


Great Indicator. I just have a few clarifications.


1. If I have a mix pairs of XXXUSD and USDXXX, does it convert all USDXXX to XXXUSD?

2. Im assumming it is using Johansen test to test multiple relationships and getting the Beta to form the Linear cointegration relationship and have a basis for Z-score probability? How does it work?


Thanks!


regards,

Francis

I think I'll do a more interesting version after the New Year, then the article will be justified. there's not much to describe here

Does it use Johansen cointegration or just pure distribution difference?

It uses the usual linear regression calculation between instruments, over a series of prices

As I understand it, Johansen cointegration just uses a few values of each series? Like vector autoregression.

1. no, it doesn't convert anything to the currency of your deposit, so it will not work properly for USDCHF, EURGBP, USDCAD, etc 

2. no, it's using simple linear regression between multiple assets and then divide all charts by Standard Deviation to make it look like flat channel 

Can I use only two pairs? instead of three?
Can you clarify what the 0 line signifies?  It's little confusing to me how the lines oscillate between positive (above the 0) and negative (below the 0) when standard deviations cannot be negative.  Thanks!
