MA Turns

[pitrader 10]

I don't know if this has already been asked in this forum but I will give it a shot. Does anybody know of an indicator that can calculate at what tic a bar will turn a MA. eg if the market has been falling and the MA has been going down how many up tics will it take for the MA to turn up? And have this price market by a dot. If this has already been addressed then can someone direct me to the thread.

 

Thanx

This is what I would call a ROUGH JUSTICE ESTIMATE: Go to where the market turned and then look at your price scale. This ought to give you an idea of where the market turned ... esp. if you consider the FIRST ENTIRE bar being below the MA. Or you can take two MAs and do the same thing where one would be let's say 50SMA and the other 100SMA look where they cross and you will get an idea of how long it took for them to cross each other then subtract that value from where you are at in real time. Hope this helped.

A thought just came to mind. SO you have the 50 and 100 SMAs now all you need is a 150SMA.
