ICWRA VertexFX Indicator

ICRWa
ICWRa indicator is a VertexFx indicator that provides precise BUY and SELL signals by identifying market cycles using trends.

When the price moves in well-defined cycles, the trending indicators like Commodity Channel Index (CCI) and Average True Range (ATR) are useful in identifying trading spots where entry and exit signals can be taken. During sideways markets and whipsaws, these indicators can be tuned to avoid trades, or to exit losing trades quickly. The ICWRa indicator employs this strategy.

In the first step, we calculate the Commodity Channel Index (CCI) over the recent 50 bars.
In the second step, we calculate the Average True Range (ATR) values over the recent 5 bars.
In the third step, we calculate the standard deviation of the CCI and ATR over the recent 50 bars to identify the trading triggers.
When all the three components are rising, a BUY signal is generated by the indicator. Similarly, when all the three components are falling, a SELL signal is generated by the indicator.


This indicator can be used with another trend following indicators for confirmation of the signals.

The ICWRa indicator requires at least 50 candles on the chart.

BUY - Place BUY trade when the indicator has displayed a BUY (GREEN) arrow at the close of the candle. Avoid trading when repetitive BUY signals are encountered. Do not open the BUY trade if the candle has a gap-up opening. Place stop-loss below the nearest Swing Low or Support level.
SELL - Place SELL trade when the indicator has displayed a SELL (RED) arrow at the close of the candle. Avoid trading when repetitive SELL signals are encountered. Do not open the SELL trade if the candle has a gap-down opening. Place stop-loss above the nearest Swing High or Resistance level.

RSIofPSAR VertexFX Indicator

RSIofPSAR is a VertexFX indicator that identifies trend reversals, it is based on two underlying indicators namely the Parabolic Stop-And-Reverse (PSAR) and the Relative Strength Index (RSI). The PSAR indicator is very useful in trend-following techniques when the trend is clear. However, it leads to whipsaws in sideways markets leading to losses. The RSI indicator is useful in identifying trend reversals and sideways markets. RSIofPSAR is created by combining these characteristics from the two indicators providing use with a composite indicator the identifies trend reversals. In the first step, we calculate the Parabolic Stop-And-Reverse (PSAR) of the price series. In the next step, we calculate the Relative Strength Index (RSI) of the PSAR calculated in the previous step. Instead of calculating the RSI using the standard technique, we use a smoothing co-efficient to eliminate the lag. The RSIofPSAR is a bounded oscillator ranging between 0 and 100. It turns BLUE when it is rising an...

Double Smoothed AMA VertexFX Indicator

Double Smoothed Adaptive Moving Average (DSAMA) is a VertexFX indicator based on the Simple Moving Average (SMA) indicator. One of the biggest drawbacks of the SMA is the presence of lag which delays trade entries and exits. The DSAMA indicator offers three advantages of the SMA indicator. First and foremost, unlike the fixed period of the SMA, the period of the DSAMA is adaptive and is calculated based on a fast and slow period range. As a result, it shows a better response than normal SMA. Secondly, by using a smoothing algorithm, the lag is reduced thereby allowing traders to enter and exit trades faster before the price has moved too far away. Building the Indicator: In the first step, we calculate the greatest and smallest value of the price over the recent PERIOD candles. Based on the greatest, smallest, and the current value, the smoothing coefficient is calculated. Finally, the two levels of smoothing are applied, one using the FAST_PERIOD and then using the SLOW_PERIOD to red...

Pattern VertexFX Indicator

Pattern indicator is a powerful multipurpose VertexFX client-side script indicator that identifies and displays various candlestick patterns. Candlestick patterns are a powerful ancient Japanese method of identifying interesting occurrences in the price behavior. When the price exhibits certain characteristics, there is a high probability that the market will exhibit certain predictable behavior. For example, a Doji pattern occurs when the opening and the closing prices are very close, and the candle is short in height. It implies that the market is trading in a close range and is undecided about the future course, or has exhausted the current course. For example, a Doji pattern after a long bear market can imply change in direction and a bullish trade can be initiated. This indicator identifies 13 patterns. It is recommended to refer to the candlestick patterns for more details on trading opportunities. The candlestick patterns detected by this indicator are : 1) Hanging Man. ...
