TrendRange labels market conditions as weak or flat, medium, and strong. It represents each bar with a histogram value based on the candle’s point range multiplied by volume; for large price gaps, it uses the gap size multiplied by volume instead. This makes…
This indicator builds Supertrend bands around a smoothed center derived from recent high and low pivot points. It uses average true range to set the distance of the upper and lower bands, then tracks trend direction as price crosses those levels. The…
This indicator overlays MACD and RSI values on a price chart to show price, momentum, and trend together. It includes trader-adjustable RSI overbought and oversold levels, and a trend feature intended to help filter trades in the direction of the broader…
This index-timing method combines relative price strength (RPS) with the difference between upward and downward volatility. It computes the two directional volatility measures for each index, subtracts one from the other, and smooths the result with a moving…
This post describes a Chinese stock screen using turnover between stated bounds, three consecutive declining closes, and a prior closing price above its 250-day moving average. It includes a technical-indicator formula and a Python example that queries daily…
