Help with a study

[DRDTRI]

hello:

I am looking for help with an efs that would alert me when the most recent bar-when volume divided into the range of the bar and compared with the previous two price bars, with the mathematical result being lower, will produce an alert like a circle above the price bar.

current bar (range:hi-lo)/volume < previous (range:hi-lo)/volume &

current bar (range:hi-lo)/volume < 2 periods ago previous (range:hi-lo)/ volume

thanks

Run a search for squat and you will find an efs that does what you are looking for

KST Formula

Dear All

I have KST formaulas for Metastock, and wish to convert into eSignal and add various moving averages, I see in technical support their is a verison of the KST but when opened seems incorrect.

Does anyone have or use these indicators

Regards
Craig

cwhitelaw,

You may want to check out the following KST Formula by TSSupport. I think this is what you are looking for.

KST

Thanks DuaneG

However the formula seems incorrect, compared to metastock, seems to have a big delay or lag!

[DRDTRI]

this is the script that I am now using..is this formula correct?

The attached revision of your efs shows how you would set up the conditions. Open it with the Formula Wizard to view the changes

Thanks alex...

This is great..cant wait to test it 2morrow in the market.

You are most welcome.
FWIW you don't need to wait until tomorrow to try the efs out. You can run the efs using the Tick Download/Replay function

Updated squat bar

Alex:

I was comparing the two formulas. What is the difference between the 2?

The only difference I see is that there are 2 && in the new formula.

Thanks

[ACM]

FURIO
That is one difference. The other is that the shape is drawn at the value of high(-1) rather than high().
More importantly though if you open the efs with the Formula Wizard you will see that the conditions are laid out differently in Set1

MOV ROC MA

Alex:

I have tried to no avail to insert a zero line in this indicator Mov Roc Ma), as well as paint the bars blue when above zero and red when below. I have posted the formula below and would appreciate any help. Thanks for all your great help!

/************************************************** *****************

var roc6 = new ROCStudy(6, "Close");
var roc10 = new ROCStudy(10, "Close");
var roc15 = new ROCStudy(15, "Close");
var roc20 = new ROCStudy(20, "Close");

function preMain()
{
setStudyTitle("MOV ROC MA");
setCursorLabelName("MOV ROC MA", 0);
setDefaultBarFgColor(Color.blue, 0);

}


function main() {

var i;
var vROC6 = roc6.getValue(ROCStudy.ROC,0,10);
var vROC10 = roc10.getValue(ROCStudy.ROC,0,10);
var vROC15 = roc15.getValue(ROCStudy.ROC,0,8);
var vROC20 = roc20.getValue(ROCStudy.ROC,0,15);
var Sum6 = 0, Sum10 = 0, Sum15 = 0, Sum20 = 0;
if(vROC6 == null || vROC10 == null || vROC15 == null || vROC20 == null)
return;
for(i = 0; i < 15; i++){
if(i < 10)
Sum6 += vROC6[i];
if(i < 10)
Sum10 += vROC10[i];
if(i < 8)
Sum15 += vROC15[i];
Sum20 += vROC20[i];
}


return (Sum6 / 10 + (Sum10 / 10) * 2 + (Sum15 / 8) * 3 + (Sum20 / 15) * 4);

}

Insert the following line in the premain;

addBand(0, PS_SOLID, 1, Color.blue);

[jones24621]

Thanks

Thanks Drizzi - works great. Do you have any idea how to overcome the 14 period lag on this indicator...?

[drizzi]

ROC

Not sure what you by "overcome". The calculation is recursive which is why the indicator plots so smooth. Look at the attached EFS to see how the standard ROC plots. If you want to reduce the lag you need to use lower periods than 6,10,15 and 20. Try lowering them to 4,6,10, and 14 and see if that works any better for you. Just make sure you change them uniformly throughout the code.
