RONUN ... you read the book "Dynamic Trading Indicators." ... so I was hoping you could enlighten us on how to use this indicator in a filter. Or perhaps perhaps to point to entry or exits on a stock in your watch list ? ... ie...when the 10 MA crosses above it then BUY ... crosses below it SELL ????

(oops ...I originally addressed this to Kevin_in_GA .... meant to be asking RONUN)

Cacher:

My comment was based on the fact that all this does is generate a line on your chart - not a screen per se. I get 3800 stocks that come up - not all that helpful unless used in combination with other strategies.

How does ronun intend to use this? What edge would this provide to traders? That is what I was getting at.

Kevin ...yah, definately an indicator.

...but use it with a moving average cross-over and a good filter is born ... so I threw this as a quick possibility ... and I must say ... withing the recent rally it is performing well.

Fetcher[
SET{VAR1,HIGH + LOW}
SET{VAR2,SUM(VAR1,5)}
SET{VAR3,VAR2 / 10}

/* take a look at VAR3 relationship with 10 day Moving Average */
DRAW VAR3
and draw MA(10) on plot VAR3
and VAR3 crossed above MA(10)

/* my typical weeding out the stock I won't trade */
and price is greater then 5
and volume is greater then 150000

/* for simple backtest - for today results change to "0 days agao" */
and offset 3 days ago

...or if looking for SHORTS ... performed very well within this simple backtest of 3 days.

The equations described in "Dynamic Trading Indicators" convert the daily price range into a normal distribution (bell curve)of daily stock prices. Not an easy read, in my opinion. This enables a trader to observe when price reaches 2 or 3 sigma price extremes. I expect to use this to confirm MACD/price divergence.

This wil describe the basics of the book although no figures are included:

I believe you need the book to dig out the details but the esentials are there.

If you want to buy the book:
http://www.amazon.com/Dynamic-Trading-Indicators-Winning-Profile/dp/0471215570/ref=ntt_at_ep_dpt_1

Found a cheaper price:

This shows a sample with the value chart display:

Apparently StockFetcher doesn't accept hyperlinks so you'll have to copy and paste. Sorry

THIS IS THE SAME IDEA AS ELDER'S BULL/BEAR POWER INDICATOR. HE LIKED USING THE EMA(13) AS THE MIDRANGE.

HTH

Looks interesting ... but I get this :

Your StockFetcher filter exceeds filter performance restrictions.


To run this filter, please upgrade to the StockFetcher Advanced subscription level.

...ouch.
