Kaufman AMA with filter : Adaptive Moving Average (AMA) technical indicator is used for constructing a Moving Average with low sensitivity to price series noises and is characterized by the minimal lag for trend detection. This indicator was developed and described by Perry Kaufman in his book

Schaff TCD RSX : As a logical step to filter out more the possible false signals, this variation of Schaff TCD RSI is using RSX (which is a smoother RSI than the "regular" RSI) to produce a smoother result. The extremes (0 and 100) are reached faster for this variation of the indicator - when

Schaff TCD RSI : Doug Schaff created a few indicators that were meant to assess trends. In one of his indicators he uses what he calls "Shaff CD" (which is actually MACD signal line instead of using MACD). The resulting indicator has the benefit of putting the Schaff Trend CD on a scale of zero to

Schaff Trend RSX : Schaff Trend RSI is a useful indicator, but if we follow the slope of the RSI as a signal, it might give us a bit too much signals. The solution seems obvious: since RSX is "a smoother RSI" without a lag, in this version RSX is calculated instead of RSI. That makes the slope much

Schaff Trend RSI : Schaff Trend Series indicator that is less known. While Schaff Trend Cycle is a sort of a double smoothed stochastic of a MACD, this is an RSI of the MACD. It partially reminds of a RSI of Moving Average, but the difference is significant enough to have it as a new indicator

Bulls and Bears : Usually we have one indicator showing bulls power and one showing bears power. Since they are not having the same ranges of values, they can not be just placed in the same window so that we have one all-in-one bulls and bears power window. This indicator makes this, and thanks to

Kaufman AMA MACD : Adaptive Moving Average (AMA) technical indicator is used for constructing a Moving Average with low sensitivity to price series' noises and is characterized by the minimal lag for trend detection. This indicator was developed and described by Perry Kaufman in his book "Smarter

Smoother Momentum Stops : Momentum is usually used for trend or price change direction assessment. This indicator changes that in some way. The stops are calculated using the smoother momentum and the direction of the stops is determined based on the smoother momentum. Apart from direction of the

New article Testing patterns that arise when trading currency pair baskets. Part III has been published: In this article, we finish testing the patterns that can be detected when trading currency pair baskets. Here we present the results of testing the patterns tracking the movement of pair's

Nonlinear regression : First, a few words about nonlinear regression: Nonlinear regression is a form of regression analysis in which data is fit to a model and then expressed as a mathematical function. Simple linear regression relates two variables (X and Y) with a straight line (y = mx + b), while

Asymmetric bands : There are a lot of bands type indicators and almost all are working in a very similar way: some basic value is taken to be a central value and the bands are drawn on equal distances up and down. That encloses the prices very well, but usually causes a lag when there is a trend

Synthetic smoothed RSI : The idea of this indicator is the same as for the synthetic RSI: Instead of using one RSI, the indicator is using 3 instances of RSI, Those 3 instances of RSI are then used to calculate the "synthetic" value (that is not an average of the 3 since the calculation differs from

Polychromatic Momentum : Denis Meyers that invented Polychromatic Momentum, describes it as: Momentum is defined as the difference, or percent change, between the current bar and a bar some lookback period in the past. The major problem with using momentum based indicators is that the optimum

Dsl - RSI of average : This indicator is using filtered prices for RSI (instead of using "raw" prices) and is using Discontinued Signal Line for trend assessment (instead of using slope or fixed levels). Price filtering prior to RSI calculation helps in making less false signals without adding

CDouble & CDoubleVector : A library for common rounding methods used in MQL development, primitive wrapper class for type (double), and vector for CDouble objects. MQL5 and MQL4 compatible! CDouble The CDouble class wraps a value of the primitive type double in an object. In addition, this class

Permutations and Combinations: Introduction It doesn't happen very often, but every once in awhile one needs to iterate over all of the combinations or permutations of a set of objects. Or more specifically, given a set of N objects, you want to consider k of them at a time (for each...

Stochastic of Hull : The Stochastic Oscillator is a momentum indicator comparing the price to the range of its prices over a certain period of time. The sensitivity of the oscillator to market movements is reducible by adjusting that time period or by taking a Moving Average of the result. Hull

Double Smoothed EMA : In his article "Trading With An Adaptive Price Zone", Lee Leibfarth uses an interesting variation of EMA. Even though the author of the article did not use that name, due to the nature of how the indicator is calculated, we are going to use the "double smoothed EMA". Unlike the

Dsl - CMO bars : The Chande Momentum Oscillator is a technical momentum indicator invented by Tushar Chande. Chande introduced the indicator in his 1994 book "The New Technical Trader". It is created by calculating the difference between the sum of all recent gains and the sum of all recent losses

Schaff Trend Cycle - DEMA : The Schaff Trend Cycle (STC) indicator is the product of combining Slow Stochastics and the Moving Average Convergence/Divergence (MACD). The MACD has a reputation as a trend indicator, but it's also notorious for lagging due to its slow responsive signal line. The

Rsi(var) Zerolag DEMA : As it was shown in the Rsi(var) indicator, other Moving Averages can be used for calculation of an RSI indicator. This version is one more step in that direction. Adding zero lag DEMA to the RSI calculation as a preferred smoothing method has two things as a result: It is

Triple Hull : The indicator is using 3 instances of Hull Moving Average. The Hull Moving Average (HMA), developed by Alan Hull, is an extremely fast and smooth moving average. In fact, the HMA almost eliminates lag altogether and manages to improve smoothing at the same time. Combining 3 instances

Rsi(var) Zerolag MA : As it was shown in the Rsi(var) indicator, other Moving Averages can be used for calculation of an RSI indicator. This version is one more step in that direction. Adding zero lag MA to the RSI calculation as a preferred smoothing method has two things as a result: It is
