StochinMA VertexFX Indicator

The StochInMA is an innovative VertexFX client-side indicator that identifies trend reversals and trading levels.

The StochInMA as the name suggests is a combination of the Moving Average and the Stochastic Oscillator.

The Moving Average by itself provides the direction of the trend and critical reversal levels. When the price is above the Moving Average the trend is considered bullish. Contrarily, when the price is below the Moving Average the trend is considered bearish. However, Moving Average by itself has a lag and results in late entries or exits.
The StochInMA adds a new dimension to the Moving Average indicator by color coding the Moving Average based on the Stochastic Oscillator levels. Traders find the Stochastic Oscillator useful in identifying trend reversals. When the Stochastic Oscillator crosses above the upper threshold it typically is a sign of bullish breakout, and below the lower threshold a sign of bearish breakout. By coloring the Moving Average based on the strength of the Stochastic Oscillator, traders get a better perspective of the strength of the trend. One of the major advantages of the StochInMA indicator is it prevents traders from false entries and early exits.

BUY / EXIT SHORT - Enter LONG (or exit SHORT) when the StochInMA indicator turns BLUE from either GREEN or RED. The stop-loss can be set to the nearest Swing Low. Traders are advised to employ a trading stop when the trade turns profitable. Do not enter fresh LONG trades if the indicator turns BLUE from YELLOW.

CCI Filter VertexFX Indicator

CCI Filter indicator is VertexFX client-side indicator script based on the Commodity Channel Index -CCI and Moving Average methods. The Commodity Channel Index (CCI) is a powerful indicator that provides important information on the trend. It is cyclical in nature and follows price closely. When the CCI has bottomed out below zero and is rising gradually, it implies that the market is rising and bullish. On the contrary, when the CCI has peaked and is falling gradually, it implies that the market is falling and bearish in nature. This is combined with the Moving Average of the Commodity Channel Index (CCI) which provides crossover signals. To calculate the CCI_Filter indicator, we first calculate the Commodity Channel Index (CCI) over the recent CCI_PERIOD bars. The CCI PRICE specifies the price field to be used to calculate the CCI indicator. This is the BLUE component of the indicator. In the next step, we calculate the Moving Average of the CCI over the recent MA_PERIOD bars. T...

If USE_ATR_FILTER is set to true then the ATR value is added to the upper Bollinger Band, or subtracted from the lower Bollinge...
