TMF Osc

Recommended Posts

Hi guys,

first of all a big "thank you" to walterw for digging it up & posting the original Twiggs Money Flow over here.

 

Please find attached my variation to this neat thing. Due to the recentering around a MA the ups & dns are more balanced & when you plot it as a histogram, divergences become very obvious.

 

A short guide to the Inputs of this study:

 

1. TMFPeriods(5) -> Length of the underlying TMF indicator

2. AvePeriods(10) -> Length of the Average used for recentering

3. SmoothOsc(4) -> Length of the WMA for the final smoothing of the Osc, 4 is my personal favorite & results in just one bar lag

4. Col_Up(Blue) -> UpColor if the Osc is above the zeroline

5. Col_Dn(Red) -> DnColor if the Osc is below the zeroline

 

If anybody has suggestions for tweaks or improvements, I will do my best to incorporate them.

 

Good trading to everyone,

cosmic

Thank You cosmic for the eld. Looks very good at showing divergences. Compiled fine on Multicharts.

Fine btrader2,

thanks for checking it out on MultiCharts, looks like the next step would be to add a automatic divergence detection routine.

 

But for now, happy easter weekend all

HI Cosmic,

 

I am really liking this indicator more and more. I have been looking at the indicator with stocks on a daily chart. But it is so tedious to look at so many charts. Is it possible to plot the last 5 days of the histogram on the radar screen. For example, the last 4 days of the histogram was below the zero line and it was red. Then today it went above the zero line and the radar screen became blue for today.

 

I am looking for crossovers above the zero line to go long at support and resistance like the 50sma and also to look for divergence. These look like great places to enter trades.

 

By looking at the radar screen i can look at many symbols and not have to look at the charts. I would narrow my views of charts on those that made the crossovers on the radar screen.

 

I hope you understand what I mean.

 

Thanks,

 

dr ho.

cosmic:

would this alert work for zero line crosses?

 

{ Alert criteria }

if TR>0 then

Alert( "Bullish alert" )

else if TR<0 then

Alert( "Bearish alert" ) ;

 

I am watching this indicator on ES 10,000 volume chart and it seems to give an early warning as to directional change.

A "bonsoir de Paris" guys,

 

here's the little ELD change for the zeroline crossover alert.

 

I will also try to add the Radarscreen tweak as suggested by DrHo, but as I am not that used to using Radar it may take a bit longer.

 

 

Good trades,

 

cosmic

Good Morning mero7676,

the downloaded ELD file only works for TradeStation or MultiCharts.

 

Haven't used MetaStock in years, but it should not be too hard to make the code workable there.

 

Good Sunday,

cosmic

    • I'm still a dove regarding crypto trading. Not because of the instruments traded, but because of the lack of market centralization. It reminds me of the early days of forex trading where no broker-dealers offered trade clearing via the interbank market. This is basically betting against "the house" which is its own captive market-maker, has its own one-off price feed, and has its own one-off trade execution policies. As a side note, I always opt out of broker-dealers' arbitration clauses within 30 days of account opening pursuant to the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act. Unscrupulous broker-dealers and platform sellers don't even provide opt-out terms in their trading/subscription agreements, but it still exists pursuant to federal statutes and federal court precedent. Sierra Chart also collects unspent platform subscription deposits from traders in their website's online "wallet." This subjects them not only to FINRA liability but CFPB liability as well. I figuratively atom bombed Sierra Chart with this info and they refunded all platform fees and data fees that I ever paid to them before I closed my Sierra Chart account. On a more general note, virtually all broker-dealers are either partnered with, or straight up are, Wall Street investment banks and hedge funds. These are the folks that refer to retail traders as "cannon fodder" and "fish food." To me, any broker-dealer is nothing more than a counterparty to a series of my transactions. If I find any reason not to trust a broker-dealer, I'm out. Crypto trading, as it presently exists, fits the bill. Crypto owning/investment might be a different story, but I'm strictly a trader.
    • Consider this... While a human trader has emotions, a bot does not. All a human trader needs to do to code a statistically profitable strategy on a good emotional day. And it can be coded for any timeframe, intraday or overnights.
    • Well said. Broker-dealers that aren't connected to centralized exchanges or the prime interbank exchanges are, in fact, casinos--where nothing extends beyond "the house."
    • My latest trick... After successfully live trading forex for years, switch to trading futures in the U.S. Chicago Mercantile Exchanges. Futures spreads are generally 1 or 2 ticks with no swaps, and data fees and commission fees are fixed. As a caveat, leverage changes throughout every day based on international sessions, so this is not for small accounts.
