Market Condition Evaluation based on standard indicators in Metatrader 5 - page 226

 

How to estimate tyhe market condition:

red lines are for sell (sell lines), blue lines are for buy (buy lines). So, bullish (uptrend) and bearish (downtrend) are separated by color of the lines in this indicator. Buy is main blue line is above blue signal line and both are in uptrend. If "sell within no buy" - this is correction (opposite for rally). if "no buy" and "no sell" - this is flat.

Bollinger band cross alert indicator

Sergey Golubev, 2018.06.24 08:03

I found the following indicator in CodeBase - 

---------------- 

iBBFill - indicator for MetaTrader 5  

Bollinger Bands


The indicator plots the Bollinger Bands ®, filled with different colors depending on the trend direction.

If the price crosses the upper bound (upward trend), the Bollinger Bands fills with blue color, if it crosses the lower bound (downward trend), the Bands filled with pink color.

If the price crosses the middle line, it's considered as a flat, and the Bands filled with grey color.

Trend direction and force - indicator for MetaTrader 5

Trend direction and force - indicator for MetaTrader 5

This indicator was made originally for metastock a long, long time ago.

There are multiple metatrader 4 versions but they were not converted to metatrader 5 yet. So here is the "basic" version of the trend direction and force index indicator for metatrader 5. It is showing the direction of the trend and also the intensity of the trend. Usually the signals are when the trend direction changes for the first time.

Combining trend and flat strategies 

Combining trend and flat strategies

There are numerous trading strategies out there. Some of them look for a trend, while others define ranges of price fluctuations to trade within them. The market is volatile. Trends are always followed by flats. This provides profit opportunities both for trend followers and those who trade within ranges. When one of these two groups makes profit, another either loses or waits for the right moment.

Is it possible to combine these two approaches to increase profitability? Can two strategies complement each other? Let's try to combine seemingly different trading models and see the result of such a combination.

Movement continuation model - searching on the chart and execution statistics  

Movement continuation model

This article provides programmatic definition of one of the movement continuation models. The main idea is defining two waves — the main and the correction one. For extreme points, I apply fractals as well as "potential" fractals — extreme points that have not yet formed as fractals. Next, I will try to collect statistical data on the waves movement. The data will be uploaded to a CSV file.
