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.

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. ...
