What is DeMarker?
The DeMarker indicator was developed by Tom DeMark to identify exhaustion points in price movement by comparing recent intrabar highs and lows to the previous bar's range. It accumulates these deviations over a period and normalizes them to produce an oscillator ranging from 0 to 1.
Values above 0.7 signal overbought conditions and potential downside reversal risk, while values below 0.3 signal oversold conditions and potential upside reversal. Unlike RSI, DeMarker focuses on directional extreme moves rather than price closure, making it sensitive to intrabar exhaustion and price spikes.
Features:
- Visual signal markers with arrows and vertical lines
- Three independent signal buffers with configurable triggers
- Signal detection options: direction change, level cross, peak/valley
- Configurable alert functions for each signal (email, push, sound, popup)
