APEX - Parabolic SARSorry to all my fans I have been overwhelmed with work and I need a couple of weeks off ... but now I have vacation time and I should be fit in a bit.
This is a for meant for the Apex Trader I very much enjoy and is long overdue.
Looks like the normal implementation of PSAR in TA-Lib is using no start compared to the Standard that TV delivers thus to make the user more comfortable this tiny change :)
Wish you all good luck and a lot of love!

APEX - Moving Averages [v1]A moving average is the most known indicator that takes into consideration price from the last several periods of the price and calculates a smoothed line also known as a Moving average. This way you will cut out a lot of the noise and have a different view.
The most common usage is the moving average crossover system when you buy and sell when a crossover happens. This system is in general not very profitable but can be used effectively in trending markets.
There is really no general rule to what length should be used. The most well-known and respected lengths are 20 / 50 / 100 / 200 for almost all average. These values are respected as strong resistance and support levels. but if you plan to use a crossover Systems the most profitable settings tend to be when the averages are close together 14 and 28 etc. But this is an area I would appeal to for you to really try out what works and what does not.
Other uses of moving averages are the following:
Crossover system
Moving averages are pointing up and price crosses below (Buy Pullback)
The slow-moving average is Below the fast moving average to help to identify possible bullishness
Can be used as support and resistance lines
If you are an advanced user you may want to try out the following techniques:
Create your own moving average by combining several of those together with the source function
Using the Average True Range to create Keltner Channels
Using Standard deviation to create Bollinger bands (Bollinger bands are also accessible on their own)
You can use Moving averages to smooth the noise on other indicators such as RSI / CCI / MFI
APEX - ADX/ADXR/DI+/DI- [v1]Average Directional Movement Index – ADX can be used to help measure the overall strength of a trend. The ADX indicator is an average of expanding price range values. The ADX is a component of the Directional Movement System developed by Welles Wilder. This indicator on its own does not give you a direction but instead measure the strength of the trend. In general values above 20 are considered a trending environment above 30 is then a strong trend and above 50 is a very strong trend.
Average Directional Movement Rating is based on the momentum change of the ADX itself. It is calculated by adding two ADX values (the current value and a value n periods back), then dividing by two. This additional smoothing makes than the ADXR slightly less responsive than ADX but helps to avoid noise.
Minus Directional Indicator (-DI) measures the presence of a downtrend and is part of the Average Directional Index (ADX). If -DI is sloping upward, it's a sign that the price downtrend is getting stronger. The Positive Directional Indicator (+DI) is a component of the Average Directional Index (ADX) and is used to measure the presence of an uptrend. When the +DI is sloping upward, it is a signal that the uptrend is getting stronger. In general values above 20 are considered a trending environment above 30 is then a strong trend and above 50 is a very strong trend.
APEX - ROC MA [v1]The rate of change also know as ROC is a momentum indicator that describes changes over a specific period of time. In general positive values describe for the asset to have a positive momentum change whereas negative values will give a negative momentum change.
You will be able to add moving averages or additionally smooth the ROC to create a more stable indicator for filtering or entries.
APEX - MFI / MA [v1]The Money Flow Index is a volume indicator used for measuring buying and selling pressure. This is done by analyzing both price and volume. The MFI's calculation generates a value that is then plotted as a line that moves within a range of 0-100, making it an oscillator. When the MFI rises, this indicates an increase in buying pressure. When it falls, this indicates an increase in selling pressure. The Money Flow Index can generate several signals, most notably; overbought and oversold conditions and divergences.
You are also able to add addition smoothing and or a moving average on top of the MFI. This can help you trade only areas with increasing buying pressure.
APEX - RSI with MA [v1]The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is as a momentum oscillator originally developed by J. Welles Wilder. The indicator is calculated as a Ratio of higher closes to lower closes on a scale of 0 to 100.
If the indicator reaches values above 80 (some use 70 or 75) it means the instrument is overbought and if the values are below 20 (25 or 30) it is oversold. But be aware those are just terms oversold/overbought main oversold /overbought for a long time. In general values over 50 mean your instrument is in a bullish state and below 50 it is in a bearish state.
The indicator is most commonly used with the length of 14. Some use RSI in a much more aggressive manner with the length of 2 (also known as Connors RSI). Whereas others have used length up to 20.
Use greater length values on the lower the timeframe to help with the noise. On larger time frames, you should be looking at lower length values.
APEX - Aroon / Aroon Oscillator [v1]Simple Script that combines Aroon and Aroon Oscillator with MTF functionality for APEX.
Aroon
The Aroon also know as Aroon Up/Down will help you determine the trend of the asset of if the asset is ranging. The indicator consists of two lines the AroonDown and the Aroon Up.When Aroon Up reaches 100, a new uptrend may have begun. If it remains persistently between 70 and 100, and the Aroon-Down remains between 0 and 30, then a new uptrend is underway.If the Aroon-Up crosses above the Aroon-Down, then a new uptrend may start soon. Conversely, if Aroon-Down crosses above the Aroon-Up, then a new downtrend may start soon. When Aroon-Up reaches 100, a new uptrend may have begun. If it remains persistently between 70 and 100, and the Aroon-Down remains between 0 and 30, then a new uptrend is underway.
Aroon Oscillator
The Aroon Oscillator is the difference between Aroon-Up and Aroon-Down. These two indicators are usually plotted together for easy comparison, but chartists can also view the difference between these two indicators with the Aroon Oscillator. This indicator fluctuates between -100 and +100 with zero as the middle line. An upward trend bias is present when the oscillator is positive, while a downward trend bias exists when the oscillator is negative.
APEX - Absolute Price Oscillator [v1]The Absolute Price Oscillator is calculated as a difference of two moving averages of an asset and is expressed as an absolute value. It rates the strength of the trend. This Oscillator can be used primarily as a filter for stronger trends or for coin specific strategies.
Values are a coin and Moving average base specific.
APEX - Bollinger Bands WidthBollinger Bands Width (BBW) is an indicator derived from the Bollinger Bands indicator. BBW are measuring the volatility of an asset. The plotted curve will help you identify high and low volatility areas. Some strategies work only if there is some level of Volatility whereas others not enjoy it. When creating your strategy have a look at numbers between 0.02 – 0.10 (2 to 10 percent on 5m timeframe ) is the most common value. You can also easily avoid big pumps/dumps by using BBW in your strategy.
APEX - Bollinger Bands %BBollinger Bands %B is essentially BB Range it is an indicator derived from the standard Bollinger Bands. Bollinger Bands are a volatility indicator that creates a band of three lines which are plotted on the screen.
Bollinger Bands %B works the same as other momentum oscillators, it is best to look for short-term oversold in this case a volatility imbalance between upper and lower volatility. You are looking for values that are near 0 or negative.
Compared to other momentum Oscillators the %B is slightly less responsive than CCI but it does provide more signals than RSI / STOCH and STOCHRSI.
Keltner Channel - APEXKeltner Channels are volatility-based bands built above and below an exponential moving average. This indicator is similar to Bollinger Bands but instead of Standart deviation of using the standard deviation uses the Average True Range (ATR) to set channel distance. The Keltner Channels it present for only allow EMA addition and EMA smoothing. Therefore I have taken the liberty to add those as default.
You can use the channels in its form to help you get into more volatile moves and thus getting out faster. I wanted to show an approach of screening area below a moving average by adding min max ATR. In Apex you will have to use 2 Keltner Channels with 2 Signals to build this up.
This feature will be available first in v1 APEX.
APEX - WaveTrend [v1]WaveTrend is a smoothed oscillator which enables it to detect true reversals in an extremely accurate manner. The beauty of this indicator is that does not generate signals during choppy sideways markets.
The basic settings are 10 / 3 / 4 these are very aggressive settings, that will generate a lot of signals in all even not so volatile markets. If you need high-quality signals you settings close to 10 / 3 /21. The strongest buy/sell signals are given when the cross occurs above or below the threshold. In the 10 / 3 / 4 you threshold for buy should be around -90 values. If you use the very smoothed variant the threshold will be around -45 to -50 values.
This indicator will be first available in APEX v1 currently being beta tested.
