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.

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...

iDoubleChannel VertexFX Indicator

iDoubleChannel is a powerful VertexFX indicator that closely follows the price trends. The indicator comprises three components, namely the Upper (BLUE) trend, the Lower (RED) trend, and the Center (YELLOW) trend. When the Lower (RED) component is above the Upper (BLUE) component it signals a bullish trend. Likewise, when the Upper (BLUE) component is above the Lower (RED) component it signals a bearish trend. Traders should avoid trading against the trend. The Center (YELLOW) trend provides a guideline to the price movement. When the Center trend is between the Upper and Lower trends it implies a continuation of the trend. When the Center trend deviates outside the Upper and Lower trend it signals the end of a trend and the probability of a trend reversal is very high. The Center trend is the Simple Moving Average (SMA) of the Close over the recent CHANNEL_PERIOD candles. The Upper trend is calculated from the cumulative sum of the High and difference between the High and Close over ...
