Stoch Money Flow (ADMF) & Absolute Strength Index (ASI) [cI8DH]This indicator can apply my previous indicator, Historical and Standard Stochastic, to Money Flow (ADMF) or Absolute Strength Index (ASI) or both at the same time. It can also display those two indicators in regular mode as well as showing visual cues when the indicators make new ATH or ATL.
ASI is basically a new name I am giving to my Gain/Loss Moving Average indicator. If you normalize ASI with the moving average of all the changes in price, it becomes identical to RSI. So ASI is basically non-normalized RSI, that is why it should be a more accurate representation of price momentum.
ADMF is an accumulation/distribution and money flow momentum indicator. Both ASI and ADMF are not range-bound so it is not easy to compare them against each other. When stochastic equation is applied to them, they both become range-bound and comparable. The gaps between the two indicator can reveal valuable information about market dynamics. The chart below shows some examples (note the settings).
For conventional usages of stochastic, please read www.tradingview.com(STOCH) and www.tradingview.com(STOCH_RSI). I recommend you to find the optimal length by playing with the stoch length in the indicator settings. If this parameter is calibrated properly, this indicator can be a powerful tool for identifying market cycle.
You can get these features ( ATH , ATL detection and historical stochastic) for any other indicator using the script below:
Strength Candles With GapCode written by Krishna Khanna on 20/11/2017 includes the following components for NimblrTA
1) Logic for detection of strength candles, only displayed candles are of strength (BH>50%CH)
2) Wicks are not considered
3) Any Gaps are indicated with a arrow, can detect gapup and gapdown
This indicator is apt for small screen devices
Volume/Rsi Overbought/oversoldI present you my last indicator. A volume indicator that indicates overbought and oversold based on the rsi, I chose the rsi because the most used surment, this indicator allows you to identify the overbought and oversold areas of the rsi with the colors blue (oversold) and orange (overbought ) on the volume indicator! Hoping that you are useful
Relative StrengthRelative strength is a ratio between two assets, most often a stock and a market average (index). This implementation uses the method described here and the second method described here to calculate its value: "To calculate the relative strength of a particular stock, divide the percentage change over some time period by the percentage change of a particular index over the same time period". This indicator oscillates around zero. If the value is greater than zero, the investment has been relatively strong during the selected period; if the value is less than zero, the investment has been relatively weak. The period and the comparative symbol can be set in the settings for the indicator (the defaults are 50 and SPX), there you can also find an option to turn on a moving average.
Volume Strength Candles / Colored BarsIs Price Action Higher or Lower on STRONG or WEAK VOLUME from lookback
(Strong or Weak Bulls // Strong or Weak Bears)
Candles / Bars Indicate the Following (default 13 period lookback / Length)
MAROON Bear Candle with STRONG VOLUME more than 150% of the lookback / length (13 default), STRONG Bear Candle Confirmed With Volume
RED Bear Candle while VOLUME is BETWEEN 50% & 150% of the Lookback / Length (13 default), Neutral Bear Volume Neither strong or weak
ORANGE Bear Candle with WEAK VOLUME (Less than 50% of the Length / Lookback)
DARK GREEN Bull Candle with STRONG VOLUME MORE than 150% of lookback
GREEN Bull Candle with Neutral VOLUME BETWEEN 50% & 150% of the lookback / Length
AQUA Bull Candle with WEAK VOLUME less than 50% of the Lookback
Is price confirmed by volume?
Can Change the Lookback / Length from 13
Can Change the Colors and Transparency to easily see based off your chart background colors I recommend ZERO Transparency to easily identify volume strength (i use white background but many use black or other)
Strenght and MomentumThe scope of this script is to measure momentum and strenght of EURO and DOLLAR using their indexes.
Forza (line) above 0 means EURO is stonger than DOLLAR
Momento (histogram) above 0 means EURO has a positive momentum against DOLLAR
The added value to see MACD and RSI directly on EURUSD chart is that indexes consider also other pairs so their RSI and MACD has a larger view on forex markets.
Script has also an option for multi timeframes.
I think that could be used as filters for LONG or SHORT positions in lower time frames.

XPloRR MA-Trailing-Stop StrategyXPloRR MA-Trailing-Stop Strategy
Long term MA-Trailing-Stop strategy with Adjustable Signal Strength to beat Buy&Hold strategy
None of the strategies that I tested can beat the long term Buy&Hold strategy. That's the reason why I wrote this strategy.
Purpose: beat Buy&Hold strategy with around 10 trades. 100% capitalize sold trade into new trade.
My buy strategy is triggered by the fast buy EMA (blue) crossing over the slow buy SMA curve (orange) and the fast buy EMA has a certain up strength.
My sell strategy is triggered by either one of these conditions:
the EMA(6) of the close value is crossing under the trailing stop value (green) or
the fast sell EMA (navy) is crossing under the slow sell SMA curve (red) and the fast sell EMA has a certain down strength.
The trailing stop value (green) is set to a multiple of the ATR(15) value.
ATR(15) is the SMA(15) value of the difference between the high and low values.
The scripts shows a lot of graphical information:
The close value is shown in light-green. When the close value is lower then the buy value, the close value is shown in light-red. This way it is possible to evaluate the virtual losses during the trade.
the trailing stop value is shown in dark-green. When the sell value is lower then the buy value, the last color of the trade will be red (best viewed when zoomed)(in the example, there are 2 trades that end in gain and 2 in loss (red line at end))
the EMA and SMA values for both buy and sell signals are shown as a line
the buy and sell(close) signals are labeled in blue
How to use this strategy?
Every stock has it's own "DNA", so first thing to do is tune the right parameters to get the best strategy values voor EMA , SMA, Strength for both buy and sell and the Trailing Stop (#ATR).
Look in the strategy tester overview to optimize the values Percent Profitable and Net Profit (using the strategy settings icon, you can increase/decrease the parameters)
Then keep using these parameters for future buy/sell signals only for that particular stock.
Do the same for other stocks.
Important : optimizing these parameters is no guarantee for future winning trades!
Here are the parameters:
Fast EMA Buy: buy trigger when Fast EMA Buy crosses over the Slow SMA Buy value (use values between 10-20)
Slow SMA Buy: buy trigger when Fast EMA Buy crosses over the Slow SMA Buy value (use values between 30-100)
Minimum Buy Strength: minimum upward trend value of the Fast SMA Buy value (directional coefficient)(use values between 0-120)
Fast EMA Sell: sell trigger when Fast EMA Sell crosses under the Slow SMA Sell value (use values between 10-20)
Slow SMA Sell: sell trigger when Fast EMA Sell crosses under the Slow SMA Sell value (use values between 30-100)
Minimum Sell Strength: minimum downward trend value of the Fast SMA Sell value (directional coefficient)(use values between 0-120)
Trailing Stop (#ATR): the trailing stop value as a multiple of the ATR(15) value (use values between 2-20)
Example parameters for different stocks (Start capital: 1000, Order=100% of equity, Period 1/1/2005 to now) compared to the Buy&Hold Strategy(=do nothing):
BEKB(Bekaert): EMA-Buy=12, SMA-Buy=44, Strength-Buy=65, EMA-Sell=12, SMA-Sell=55, Strength-Sell=120, Stop#ATR=20

Background
The currency strength indicator takes up to 4 forex pairs and calculates the average strength across all pairs. The indicator uses the pair's daily percentage change to calculate the overall strength. For flexibility, it can accept any instrument as an input. This means you can use multiple instances to track various currency strengths. It was designed with the major pairs in mind but there is no reason why it cannot be used for other FX pairs.
Note: The indicator defaults to GBP. When setting it up for other currencies, be sure to flag whether the currency is a counter currency or not.
The code is provided free and open source. Please modify it as you see fit.
