This essay uses the contest of guessing two-thirds of the group’s average to explain why a theoretically logical answer may not win when other players reason differently. Applied to speculation, its central lesson is to consider market behavior and other…
This indicator simplifies a moving average chart into the percentage distances between a smoothed closing price and two exponential moving averages. The example uses a shorter and a longer average, with a separate line showing their relative spread. The…
This brief indicator description explains a channel-based way to display price direction and candle alignment. Candles are assigned colors after price moves outside a gray envelope: aquamarine signals an upward trend direction, while yellow signals a…
The document describes a higher-timeframe variant of the Boa ZigZag Arrows indicator. It says the chart period can be selected through an indicator input, with a four-hour period shown as the default in the supplied excerpt. This lets a user view the…
The document describes an adaptive channel indicator that combines two adaptive components: an ATR-based channel width and a central value calculated as an adaptive exponential moving average. Both adjustments use Kaufman’s efficiency ratio, which allows the…
The document presents an indicator intended to display a daily SuperTrend line on a lower-timeframe chart for intraday use. It derives a daily true-range measure from daily highs, lows, and prior closes, then forms upper and lower bands around the daily…
This post proposes an equity screen combining daily range above a threshold, rising lows, and price above its five-day moving average. Its expanded version adds a longer-term trend check using the 20-day and 250-day averages, valuation limits, market-cap…
This document describes an MQL5 class for calculating the Triple Exponential Moving Average (TEMA) with a ring buffer. It outlines initialization options such as the period, smoothing method, buffer size, and series orientation, then describes methods for…
This note describes a double-smoothed adaptive moving average intended to address frequent slope changes in an adaptive moving average. It places the method in the context of Kaufman's adaptive moving average and a modification that also accounts for where…
FanMA2 represents a fan of moving averages as an oscillator in a separate chart window. Its values stay within a range of plus one to minus one, and the display includes a smoothed average line. The description outlines the indicator’s configurable…
This indicator overlays candles from a larger timeframe as filled rectangles. It colors each candle according to the HullTrend indicator’s direction: the body uses emerald green or pink, while the shadows use light green or cream. The description explains…
The document describes a forex expert advisor that uses ZigZag swing highs and lows to identify support and resistance, then updates trend lines as price structure changes. When price approaches or touches a line, the EA may take a buy or sell position…
The document describes an indicator that evaluates the slopes of five moving averages with different lookback periods and adds the slope readings to represent an overall trend. The moving-average types it lists are simple, exponential, smoothed, and linear…
The NineTFMovement indicator presents price movement across nine chart timeframes, from one-minute bars through monthly bars, alongside a directional assessment labeled up, down, or wait. The document recommends using it on five- or fifteen-minute charts,…
This document describes a colored moving average indicator with configurable calculation settings. It names simple, exponential, smoothed, and linear weighted methods; the list repeats the smoothed method, so the intended fifth method is unclear. Users can…
The document traces several ways to build moving average trading rules, using a 15-minute Chinese rebar futures index as its backtest example. It starts with price crossing a single average and short-period averages crossing longer ones, then adds…
The document describes two strategies using an adaptive baseline and volatility bands. For momentum breakouts, it calls for a candle close beyond an outer band and a baseline color indicating the same direction; the trade is held until the baseline changes…
This stock-screening proposal combines a range condition, rising lows, and a long-term trend filter. It selects shares with amplitude above one, a rising bottom, and the prior close above the 250-day moving average. The suggested expanded version adds a…
This proposed equity screen selects stocks with MACD above zero, positive net profit, and a rounded price-recovery pattern. The document interprets positive MACD as evidence of an upward trend, profitability as a basic quality check, and the rounded shape as…
This post presents a long-only DAX strategy on 15-minute bars. It looks for a prior lower low, a current high below the earlier rolling high, a bullish candle, a limited bar range relative to the recent high-low span, and a close above SuperTrend. The…
The document describes a trading approach that combines an adaptive moving average (AMA) with Kaufman’s adaptive moving average (KAMA). It says the AMA builds on KAMA by accounting for where the close falls within the high–low range. The proposed system uses…
This article presents the 1-2-3 rule as a practical interpretation of Dow Theory’s trend-reversal logic, associated with Victor Sperandeo rather than a term used by Charles Dow himself. For an uptrend, it describes three signs: a trendline break, a rally…
The document describes a Double Exponential Moving Average indicator with a user-selectable chart timeframe. Its example setting uses a higher timeframe than the chart’s default interval, allowing the indicator to display a DEMA calculated from that selected…
This indicator presents ColorStepXCCX direction across ten separate timeframes in one view. Each line represents an indicator on a different timeframe: rising oscillator movement is shown in green, falling movement in pink, and other conditions in gray. Dots…
