Just to follow up on previous point........

using slope we get AAPL with a slope of 59.10 degrees !!!

using normslope its 7.06

Would be good if Apple really was 59degrees, but it looks more like 7

dbyrt:

Example SF code? NormSlope?

Depends on the number of days the slope is over. How many are you using?

For my application I'm interested in the correlation to some usable known reference (albeit subjective), rather than absolute values. Having 1.0 as equal to 45 degrees does not make it convenient.

I'm not talking about any other "number of days the slope is over".
5, 10 or whatever.......its just that 'slope' doesn't give the correct result.

I'm also talking about degrees too. I think you misunderstood me.

Apple has not gone up at an angle of over 50 degrees as you will see by looking at chart, but more like 7. I'm just pointing out that if you want an accurate measure of degrees, use normslope.

I don't know why its not in the literature........but I was told it was accurate, and it appears to be so.

All the best.

Thanks for the filter update. That does look better. I wonder what other items are unpublished.

Repost of 9/27/2007 8:13:32 AM filter.
corrects line 2 from nomrslope to normslope.

Normslope is worse than slope. Will look at method that does not use slope at all.

This is what I have been working on for some time. This is kind of hard to explain. I took 20% of the price then took 20% of that and multiplied that by 5. I ten took that number and added it to the price. The stock has to go up by that amount to rise at a 45 degree angle. If it goes up by half that much it rises at a 22 degree angle. I have used the 13 day low as a starting point to arrive at the angle. The code is as follows.

Fetcher[
set{a45, low 13 day low * .20}
set{b45, a45 *.20}
set{c45, b45 * 5}

set{a22, low 13 day low * .10}
set{b22, a22 *.10}
set{c22, b22 * 5}





set{13a45, low 13 day low + c45}
set{13a22, low 13 day low + c22}

high reached a new 52 week high in the last 1 day
close > 15
volume > 500000

draw low 13 day low

draw 13a45 on plot price
draw 13a22 on plot price]



It seems to be about right. I don't know if the 13 day low is the right starting point, but it is what I have been playing with. If this is useful please improve on it.
