Various Indicators (Squeeze,2FastMa's,etc)

Recommended Posts

That was my initial thought but cross above/below what? There's no zero line or crossover like macd or stochastic.

 

write out your thoughts...

step-by-step,

line-by-line,

logic-by-logic,

you will see yourself clearly if you do.

TAMS - i appreciate the guidance, however i'm not seeing the logic in the crossover. I'm sure its something simple that i'm missing; Is there another indicator that you can think of that currently does what i'm looking for where i can use that as guide?

 

Thx

don't jump ahead,

don't think of the cross over yet,

it might not be the tool you need.

 

but instead, start from the very beginning,

write out your logic

step-by-step...

as if the computer is reading your mind...

 

what is the critical point?

what drives the critical point?

what are the components of this critical point?

what are the attributes of this critical point?

 

you have already mentioned the components that are NOT in this critical point...

>no zero line or crossover like macd or stochastic

if you can identify what's not there, surely you can identify what's there.

 

use a magnifying glass,

enlarge the chart,

zero in on the few bars that triggered this critical event...

the information's got to be there, under your nose somewhere.

How would you explain to someone what it means for it to change color from one bar to the next? Write out the condition of each bar and see if that helps.

Tams & Sevensa I think I managed to get what I was looking for after giving it some more thought:

 

Inputs: 
price(Close), 
length(13),
upColour(black), 
downColour(white);

Value1 = jtHMA(price, length);

Plot1(Value1, "FastMA");

{ Color criteria }
if Value1 > Value1[1] then
SetPlotColor(1, upColour)
else if (Value1 < Value1[1]) then 
SetPlotColor(1, downColour);

if Value1 cross above Value1[1] then
alert ("bullish");

if Value1 cross below Value1[1] then 
alert ("bearish");

Is the Radarscreen template/software available here? Or is there a download available? I see where there are indicators here for Radarscreen, but not the actual screen itself (?) I contacted FXCM and spoke to 3 tech guys and they don't even know what it is. Hoping to acquire it if possible. Thanks much.

Radarscreen is a built-in feature of TradeStation and MultiCharts.

It is not an independent program.

Can someone code all of these trade station indicators for ninja trader. It would be much appreciated!!!:helloooo:

 

Techfan...they are done! The squeeze is done in 3 ways for NT...Look here TradingStudies.com....use the CounterTrend setup, one of 3 in the RSqueeze.zip indicator. Sign up one Big Mikes Trading Forum...they have a template in the downloads NT template section. For the indicators look at the PBF thread and Jeff did the template and he shows the indicators in a jpg of what is needed and all are on BMT download section. Have Fun, and stay out of chop. Mark

Thanks CH888

 

No it's not me...... a little bit annoying that someone is profiting from my goodwill. They're free files so I presume I'm helpless to stop him selling them aren't I ?

Guys, has anyone downloaded the news forex system? Apparently it can trade BOTH trending AND ranging market conditions using the same system. It looks pretty awesome actually.

 

Here's the link to download it

Here you go, see the attached doc for the code of all the indicators posted in this thread ( except 2ma, which you have )

 

Hope this helps

Hi,

 

In post #47 on page 5, Blu-Ray attached a doc file but when I try to save target as, all I get is a gif file. And when I try to click on it, a new blank webpage opens. Can anyone please post the code for the BR_Paint Bars because I am using OEC and I can't open the eld file?

 

Thanks.

Thanks Tams. The following code is what I have and it compiles error free. However, I am not getting the multiple colours in OEC Trader, only one constant colour. Is the code correct for Paint Bars?

 

// BR Paint Bars

 

 

Inputs: price(Close), length(13),

upColour(Blue), downColour(Red);

var:

intrabarpersist v1(0);

 

v1 = jtHMA(price, length);

 

plotpb(high,low, "jtHMA");

 

 

{ Color criteria }

if (v1 > v1[1]) then

setplotcolor(1, upColour)

else {if (Value1 < Value1[1]) then }

SetPlotColor(1, downColour);

 

 

#function jtHMA

 

Inputs: price(NumericSeries), length(NumericSimple);

Vars: halvedLength(0), sqrRootLength(0);

 

 

{

Original equation is:

---------------------

waverage(2*waverage(close,period/2)-waverage(close,period), SquareRoot(Period)

Implementation below is more efficient with lengthy Weighted Moving Averages.

In addition, the length needs to be converted to an integer value after it is halved and

its square root is obtained in order for this to work with Weighted Moving Averaging

}

if ((ceiling(length / 2) - (length / 2)) <= 0.5) then

halvedLength = ceiling(length / 2)

else

halvedLength = floor(length / 2);

if ((ceiling(SquareRoot(length)) - SquareRoot(length)) <= 0.5) then

sqrRootLength = ceiling(SquareRoot(length))

else

sqrRootLength = floor(SquareRoot(length));

Value1 = 2 * WAverage(price, halvedLength);

Value2 = WAverage(price, length);

Value3 = WAverage((Value1 - Value2), sqrRootLength);

jtHMA = Value3;

Blue-Ray or anyone, is there a way to change the blue dots/line on the 2Fast Ma's to another color that can be more easily seen on a black back ground chart and same with the blue bars on the BR_Paint Bars. Green would be nice on the Paint Bars. I'm technically challenged so any help would be greatly appreciated.....Thanks

Hello,

I was very happy to find Blu-Ray's Squeeze indicator, but when I put it on my Tradestation (version 9.5) chart, the all-important color bars in the middle were so tiny you can hardly see them. Attached are two pix to demonstrate. Does anybody have a clue how to fix this, so those bars are large enough to see? I've played with every setting I can find on Tradestation, but no luck so far. Do I just need to find a different version of the Squeeze? Any help gratefully received!

Thanks in advance,

Tasuki

Tasuki,

 

Did you try to format Style, Weight (/width) for that plot?

If that doesn't work, check see if width is being 'overridden' in the code.

    • Date: 21st February 2025.   European PMI Disappoint, Weighing on Euro Before German Elections   The Euro is the first currency to witness the volatility on this month’s PMI reports. The French, German and British PMI data have resulted in the Euro being the worst-performing currency of the European Session so far. However, will the Euro continue to decline throughout the day? European Purchasing Managers’ Indexes The French Purchasing Managers Index was the first European index to be made public. The release resulted in the Euro instantly declining 0.24%. The main concern from the French data was the Services PMI which fell from 48.2 to 44.5. Previously the market was expecting the data to remain more or less unchanged. The weak data triggered the decline which came to a halt after Germany’s PMI was released.     The German Manufacturing PMI read 0.5 points higher than previous expectations and the Services PMI was 0.2 points lower. The data from Germany was a relief for Euro investors and the price rose 0.12% higher. However, traders should note that the price of the EURUSD continues to remain 0.20% lower than yesterday’s close. The price of the EURUSD will now depend on the PMI data from the US. The value of the US Dollar will depend on its PMI release this afternoon and the Consumer Sentiment Index. Analysts expect both the US Services and Manufacturing PMI data to remain above the 50.00 level in the expansion zone. German Elections 2 Days Away Germany is set to hold a general election this Sunday, February 23rd, following the collapse of the coalition of social democrats, liberals, and greens. Given the country's highly proportional electoral system, German polls provide a strong indication of potential government formations post-election. The main concern for Germany is the AFD party who are Far-Right Nationalists. Currently, ahead in the polls are CDU (centre-right), and AFD (far right), followed by the SPD (centre-left). Traders should note that the results of the elections are likely to trigger strong volatility on Monday, but also influence volatility today. Economists may become further concerned if the far-right gains power for the first time due to uncertainty. If the government, similar to France, is unable to form a coalition, this would also be a concern for the Eurozone. Furthermore, the Euro this week is also under pressure from comments from members of the European Central Bank. ECB Governing Council member Fabio Panetta said to journalists that officials need not slow interest rate cuts, as January's 2.5% inflation is still expected to reach the 2.0% target this year. He also advised the European economy is weaker than previously expected. EURUSD - Technical Analysis and Indicators The EURUSD is trading above the 75-bar Exponential Moving Average and 100-bar Simple Moving Average on the 2-hour chart. However, the price is moving away from the key resistance level at 1.05058 indicating the price is losing momentum. The short-term volatility is indicating the price is retracing downwards. On the 5-minute timeframe, the price is trading below the 200-bar SMA and is also forming clear lower lows and highs. Simultaneously, the US Dollar Index is trading above the 200-bar SMA on the 5-minute chart confirming no current conflicts. Currently, the US Dollar is the best-performing currency of the day attempting to regain losses from the past 2 weeks. Watch today’s Live Analysis Session for more signals as they develop!   Key Takeaway Points: Weak French Services PMI triggered an initial Euro decline, but German PMI provide a slight relief. However, EURUSD remains lower than yesterday’s close. The Euro’s direction now depends on the US PMI reports, with analysts expecting US data to stay in expansion territory. Sunday's German election could drive volatility, especially if the far-right AFD gains power or if coalition formation proves difficult. ECB official Fabio Panetta suggested no need to slow rate cuts, citing weaker-than-expected economic performance and expected inflation decline. Always trade with strict risk management.
