Parameters: Thermometer_EMA_Length (22) – The length of the moving average of the Market Temperature. The default 22, the average number of trading days in a month. Spike_Alert_Facto

SafeZone is a method for setting stops on the basis of recent volatility, outside the level of market noise. It is described in "Come into my Trading Room" book. In an uptrend, SafeZone defines noise as that portion of the current bar that extends below the low of the previous bar, going against the prevailing trend. It averages the noise level over a period of time and multiplies it by a trader-selected factor. For long trades, SafeZone subtracts the average noise level, multiplied by a facto

One of the key rules in trading is never move your stops in such a way that your risk increases. Our stop sequence shows the automatic tightening of stops. They appear as a series of decreasing risk points until the trade is eventually stopped out. The problem is that if you enter a trade at any other point than the initial dot of the sequence, you may be placing the stop too close. Stop-entry plots show you the initial value for the stop for each bar. You can use them when you put on a trade,

SafeZone is a method for setting stops on the basis of recent volatility, outside the level of market noise. It is described in "Come into my Trading Room" book. In a downtrend, SafeZone defines noise as the portion of the current bar that extends above the high of the previous bar, against the downtrend. It averages the noise level over a period of time and multiplies it by a trader-selected factor. For short trades, it adds the average noise level, multiplied by a factor, to the latest high

The Impulse System was first described in "Come into my Trading Room" book. It uses the direction of both the MACD-Histogram and an exponential moving average (EMA) of price to define an impulse. The rule is never to trade against the impulse. Its color code gives you several signals: When both the EMA and MACD-Histogram are rising, the Impulse system colors the bar color is green (no shorting permitted). When both the EMA and MACD-Histogram are falling, the Impulse system colors the bar color i

Elder-Ray is made of both Bulls Power and Bears Power as described in "Come into my Trading Room" book. It is tracking the relative power of bulls and bears by measuring how far the high and the low of each bar get away from the average price. Elder-ray is an indicator developed by Dr. Elder and named for its similarity to x-rays. It shows the structure of bullish and bearish power below the surface of the markets. Elder-ray combines a trendfollowing moving average with two oscillators to show w

The Chandelier Exit, introduced by Charles LeBeau, is described in "Come into My Trading Room" book. It calculates each stop on a long position in an uptrend from the highest point reached during that rally, and gets its name from the chandelier, which hangs from the highest point in the room. The Chandelier Exit uses a multiple of the Average True Range (ATR), subtracting it from the highest high since the trade was entered. It creates a new trade whenever the previous trade is stopped out. Ch

The Chandelier Exit, introduced by Charles LeBeau, is described in "Come into My Trading Room" book. It calculates each stop on a short position in a downtrend from the lowest point reached during that decline. The Chandelier Exit uses a multiple of the Average True Range (ATR), adding it to the lowest low since the trade was entered. It creates a new trade whenever the previous trade is stopped out. Chandelier Stops differ from traditional stops by having the ability to move against you if the

The purpose of Impulse Release is to prevent trading in the wrong direction. While the Impulse System operates in a single timeframe, Impulse Release is based on two timeframes. It tracks both the longer and the shorter timeframes to find when the Impulse points in the same direction on both. Its color bar flashes several signals: If one timeframe is in a buy mode and the other in a sell mode, the signal is "No Trade Allowed", a  black bar. If both are neutral, then any trades are allowed, showi

The Smoothed ROC indicator, developed by Fred Schutzman, is described in "Trading for a Living" book. It is created by calculating the rate of change for an exponential moving average of closing prices. When it changes direction, it helps identify and confirm trend changes. Parameters Smoothing_EMA_Length (13) – The length of the EMA used for smoothing; ROC_Period (21) – The length of the rate of change calculation.

This indicator allows to display Renko charts in the indicator window. Renko charts show only price movements that are bigger than the specified box size. It helps to eliminate noise and allows to focus on main trends. Time is not a factor here. Only price movements are taken into account. That's why Renko chart is not synchronized with the main chart it is attached to. Indicator works in two modes: CLOSE - only close prices are taken into account while building the chart HIGH_LOW - only high/

Chaikin's volatility indicator calculates the spread between the maximum and minimum prices. It judges the value of volatility basing on the amplitude between the maximum and the minimum. Unlike Average True Range , Chaikin's indicator doesn't take gaps into account. According to Chaikin's interpretation, a growth of volume indicator in a relatively short space of time means that the prices approach their minimum (like when the securities are sold in panic), while a decrease of volatility in a l
