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.

MaksiGen VertexFX Indicator

MaksiGen Range Move is a simplistic VertexFX client-side indicator script that generates BUY and SELL signals based on trading ranges, and range breakout methodology. The concept behind the indicator is to find the Highest Highs and Lowest Lows over a shorter period and a longer period. If the Highest Highs and the Lowest Lows are identical, it implies that the market is range bound over the specified range, and a breakout is possible. The idea is to trade the breakout on either side, using BUY-STOP or SELL-STOP trades. In the first step, we calculate the Highest High and the Lowest Low over the recent PERIOD FAST bars. These levels are displayed by SILVER dotted horizontal lines. In the second step, we calculate the Highest High and the Lowest Low over the recent PERIOD SLOW bars. Once again, these levels are displayed by SILVER dotted horizontal lines. Trendlines are drawn between the two Lowest Low levels and Highest High levels in GOLDEN color. The trendlines typical for a ...

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...

Adaptive ATR VertexFX Indicator

AdaptiveATR is a VertexFX indicator built based on the Average True Range (ATR) indicator. The Average True Range (ATR) provides information about the volatility of the price. However, one of the drawbacks of the ATR is that it does not provide the direction of the trend, or change in direction. The AdaptiveATR overcomes this drawback by using an adaptive feedback mechanism for calculating the ATR. The original ATR uses High, Low, and Close prices for calculations, whereas AdaptiveATR uses only High and Low prices. As a result, it exhibits a greater sensitivity to volatility and change in direction. In the first step, we calculate the average price based on the High and the Low. In the next step, we calculate the difference of the Average price from its previous Average price. Using concepts of signal-processing, the noise factor is calculated based on this difference. Finally, we subtract the noise from the accumulated Difference over the specified ATR Period. When AdaptiveATR is ris...
