Description:
FreedomOfMovement by Melvin E. Dickover:
computes how much effort to move the close up or down from previous bar.
Effort is defined as the normalized relative volume.
Effect is the normalized percent of (close - previous close).
The resulting Freedom of Movement is the relative ratio of effort/effect.
The larger the spike in FoM, the more the restriction of freedom of movement.
Price movement is easy when FoM is small or negative,
that is, only a small volume required to move price appreciably.
Formula Parameters: Default:
Period 60
