CamarillaFlatAndClear VertexFX Indicator

The CamarillaFlatAndClear is an innovative VertexFX client-side indicator based on daily pivot and Camarilla levels.

Pivot levels are an useful tool to identify key support and resistance levels. However, they have outlived their purpose especially for short-term traders.
The CamirillaFlatAndClear indicator is an improvement of the pivot levels and Camarilla levels using "squares of 12" method.

The indicator provides seven key levels - namely the central Pivot level (YELLOW), three support (RED) and resistance (GREEN) levels each. Unlike traditional pivot level trading methods, the levels provided by this indicator act as breakout levels. Short term traders prefer to trade in the direction of the level (breakout) rather than against it (reversal). When used with short-term Exponential Moving Average (EMA) it provides excellent breakout trades for short term traders.
The central pivot level (YELLOW) is the average of the previous Day's High, Low and Close. The other levels are calculated from "squares of 12" method, whereby the previous day's range is divided by 12, 6 and 2 respectively. The resistance (GREEN) levels signify resistance. However, when the price is trending upwards alongwith the EMA, these levels act as bullish breakout levels. The support (RED) levels signify support. When the price is trending downwards alongwith the EMA, these levels act as bearish breakout levels.

BUY / EXIT SHORT - Enter LONG (or exit SHORT) when the price crosses above the GREEN Camarilla levels from below and the price is above the Exponential Moving Average. The stop-loss can be placed below the nearest Swing Low. Traders should employ a trailing stop when the position is in profit.
SHORT / EXIT LONG - Enter SHORT (or exit LONG) when the price crosses below the RED Camarilla levels from above and the price is below the Exponential Moving Average. The stop-loss can be placed below the nearest Swing High. A trailing stop should be employed to ensure profitable positions are protected.

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...
