TASC Trader's Tip: Volatility % Indicator (Dec '97)

You can easily create the Volatility% Indicator from William Brower’s article in MetaStock for
Windows. First choose Indicator Builder from the Tools menu in MetaStock. Next choose
New and enter one of the following formulas:

Formula for MetaStock 6.5

Volatility%

Lookback := Input("Time Periods",1,1000,50);

HighVolatility := Input("High Volatility %",.01,100,3);

100 * Sum(100 * ATR(1)/CLOSE > HighVolatility, Lookback)/Lookback

Tema PV Binary Wave

Use of Tema PV Binary Wave and Tema QStick Formulas in MetaStock, from "JimG"

There are really two different ways to use these formulas. Since the Binary Wave is a
smoothed addition of several technical indicators that each give +1 when bullish, 0 when
neutral and -1 when negative, it makes sense that a positive number is bullish and rising
numbers are bullish. Similarly negative numbers and falling numbers are bearish.

The QStick is really a candlestick type indicator, but can be read as bullish or bearish in
same way as the Binary Wave.

The two traditional ways to play them are to buy on a rise from a negative peak and sell on
a fall from a positive peak, or to buy on a zero cross over to the upside and sell on a zero

crossover to the downside. Of course you can optimize and find various buy and sell levels
as long as you understand what is bearish and what is bullish.

My own MetaStock system tests alerts on the BW crossing a moving average of itself and
buys or sells on a confirmation of Qstick turning positive or negative respectively. Having
said that, I don't make my buy an sell decisions from the indicators or the system test. I do
use the system test as an initial screen and use a buy signal as a flag to move the stock to
my watch list. I make all buying and selling decisions based on the trend channels. Over the
years, I've found that works best for me.

Trading the Trend 2

Trading the Trend (TTT) -- by Andrew Abraham, TASC Magazine 9/1998, was about one
form of stoploss exit: subtract some manipulation of the true range from the highest high
(or add it to the lowest low) and exit when the close crosses that. (Members of Chuck
LeBeau's Traders Club will recognise the "Chandelier Exit".)

THE CHANDELIER EXIT: The exit stop is placed at a multiple of average true ranges from
the highest high or highest close since the entry of the trade. As the highs get higher the
stop moves up but it never moves downward.

In MS 6.5 as a variable or custom indicator : DaysinTrade:= Barssince(previous composite
entry criteria = 1)

THE YO YO EXIT: This exit is very similar to the Chandelier Exit except that the ATR stop is
always pegged to the most recent close instead of the highest high. Since the closes move
higher and lower, the stop also moves up and down (hence the Yo Yo name).

Name: Trading the Trend

Pds:=21;
Mult:=3;
TruRan:=Mov(ATR(1),Pds,W)*Mult;
HiLimit:=HHV(H,Pds)-TruRan;
LoLimit:=LLV(L,Pds)+TruRan;
If(C>HiLimit,HiLimit,LoLimit)

1.

After closing the Indicator Builder click on the Expert Advisor (the guy in the bowler/
derby hat).

2.

Click on New, then the Name tab, type in Trading the Trend.

3.

Click on the Highlights tab, select the first line so that it is highlighted, click Edit,
type in the name Uptrend, select Colour Blue, select Condition, type in C>FmlVar
("Trading the Trend","HiLimit"), and click OK,

4.

Still on the Highlights tab, select the second line, click Edit, type in the name
Downtrend, select Color Red, select Condition, type in C<=FmlVar("Trading the
Trend","HiLimit"), click OK, and then click OK again.

5.

If you have a chart open that you want to use this on, click Attach, otherwise click
Close. In the latter case, when you open a chart and plot the trendline, click on the
Expert Advisor, select Trading the Trend, and click on Attach.

I've given the Expert steps in detail for any who may not be familiar with its use. To
experiment with variations in the lookback periods and the multiplier you can do so in either
the Indicator Builder, or right-click the indicator on the chart, select Properties, then the
Formula tab, and make the changes (e.g. try a lookback period of 10, and a multiplier of
2.5). As implemented above, the Expert should change accordingly. This shows the trade-
offs that have to be made
between near and distant stops. This is too rudimentary to be traded as a system - the

whipsaws would chop you to pieces - but the exits should help to limit drawdowns.

A very similar stoploss is given in Chande & Kroll "The New Technical Trader", pp.167 - 169,
"Volatility-Based Trailing Stops". My preference is to plot both the high and the low exit
lines in contrasting colours, dispensing with the switch between them, and dispensing with
the Expert. If anyone wants help with the code, just say so.

Assuming you entered everything exactly in both the Indicator Builder and the Expert
Advisor, one question comes to mind. Did you decide to adapt the formula to MS v.6.5 and
use an Input function for Pds and Mult? It seems like a logical thing to do, and in fact I
coded it that way at first. The problem is that the Expert Advisor always reverts to the
default value (the System Tester does the same thing).

Thus if you used something like:

Pds:=Input("Lookback Periods?",1,1000,20)

and then when you applied it you changed the periods to 15, the Expert Advisor will still
read 20. I hard-coded the Pds and Mult parameters for that reason.

Trailing Stop Loss Indicator

If(cum(1)=1,
{then} Close,
{else} If((C*1.1) <= PREV,
{then}(C*1.1),
{else} PREV));

{from Adam Hefner}

{Regarding the Recursive Moving Trendline System, I ended up making an oscillator out of
it (subtracting the ema from the rta). If you wish to try "tuning" it in MetaStock, you could
try different entry levels from the oscillator. For example, go long when TOSC crosses from
below -2, or go short when TOSC crosses from above +2. }

Lb:=Input("Look-Back Period?",3,100,21);
Ty:=Input("1=C 2=H 3=L 4= Median Price",1,4,1);

RMTA:=(1-Alpha)*(If(Cum(1)<Lb,Tv,PREV))+

{I use this for futures and the above parameters (optimized settings) keep it in the ballpark.
If you are applying it to equities (or commodities), it always makes sense to look at the
indicator and understand the outside parameters for each of its "steps". It makes no sense
to limit your outside limits to -2 and +2 if the TSF oscillates between -8 and +8. So do a
little homework on the "outside" limits of the indicator and then optimize accordingly. from

The New Advance Decline Line

The formulas and steps necessary to do the New Advance -Decline Line from the September
1994 Technical Analysis of Stocks & Commodities, page 14 by Daniel Downing are:

Taken from Stocks & Commodities, V. 12:9 (363-365): A New Advance-Decline Line by
Daniel E. Downing

"Here's a trading tool that uses a unique version of the daily advance-decline line of the
New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). This version helps in our short- and long-term trading of
index options and stock index futures. It gives many good short-term trading signals and
excellent but infrequent longer-term signals…

The philosophy behind this tool is that the short-term trader's capital is finite and that
traders have to reliquify their holdings after a period. Traders can buy and try to push the
equities higher only so many times before they need to reliquify, just as only a finite amount
of selling waves can take place before the sellers are out of supplies. A tool that points to
when short-term traders need to reliquify their positions will also spot when the markets will
soon reverse their trends."

For the Windows versions of MetaStock:

Load the advances

Load the declines

Drag the plot of the advances into the chart of the declines

Plot the following custom formula directly on the plot of advances.

Cum( If( P ,>= ,1000 ,If(C ,< ,1000 , + 1 ,0 ) ,If( C ,>= ,1000 ,-1 ,0 ) ) )

Tick Line Momentum Oscillator

In his article "Using The Tick In A Short-Term Indicator", in the January 94 issue of TASC,
Daniel E. Downing presents the Tick Line Momentum Oscillator.

Taken from Stocks & Commodities, V. 12:1 (42-44): Using The Tick In A Short-Term
Indicator by Daniel E. Downing

"The tick index, the net difference of the numbers of stocks last traded on an uptick from
those last traded on a downtick , is a well-known indicator, but it's got a problem. The raw
number result is volatile, perhaps too volatile for some. What to do? here, then, is a way to
smooth out the noise to identify short-term trading opportunities.

The tick is a basic unit for the markets, watched with fascination during periods of turmoil
and periods of enthusiasm. It is quoted throughout the day on most quote services. In
addition, the closing tick value can be found on the market statistics pages of financial
newspapers such as Barron's and The Wall Street Journal. Let me present, then, the tick
line momentum oscillator, which is based on the closing value for the New York Stock
Exchange (NYSE) tick indicator. The oscillator has been shown to have a good track record
of determining when the NYSE is overbought or oversold on a short-term basis. The formula
for the tick line momentum oscillator is simple and can be easily calculated without a
computer, although a spreadsheet

version can be found

in the sidebar, "Tick

line

momentum." Finally, the oscillator is straightforward and simple to apply."

The MetaStock formula for the Tick Line Momentum Oscillator is:

Mov( ROC( Cum( If( C ,> ,Ref( Mov(C ,10 ,E ) ,-1 ) ,+1 ,If( C ,< ,Ref( Mov( C ,10 ,E )
,-1 ) ,- 1 ,0 ) ) ) ,5 ,$ ) ,5 ,E )

Trading Channel Index

The Trading Channel Index comes from an early version of AIQ's Stock Expert program.
"The Trading Channel Index measures the location of average daily price relative to a
smoothed average of average daily price. It is derived from the average difference between
these two values."

To create the Trading Channel Index in MetaStock create the following custom formula's:

AP+: Average price
( H + L + C ) / 3

ESA+: Smoothed price average
Mov( Fml( "AP+" ) ,10 ,E ) + ( Mov( Ref( Fml( "AP+" ) ,-1 ) ,10 ,E ) )

D+: Price range estimate
Mov( ( Fml( "AP+" ) - Fml( "ESA+" ) ) ,10 ,E ) + ( Mov( Ref( Fml( "AP+" ) - Fml( "ESA+" )
,-1 ) ,10 ,E ) )

CI+: Channel index
( ( Fml( "AP+" ) - Fml( "ESA+" ) ) / ( 0.015 * Fml( "D+" ) ) )

TRADING CHANEL INDEX:
Mov( Fml( "CI+" ) ,21 ,E ) + ( Mov( Ref( Fml( "CI+" ) ,-1 ) ,21 ,E ) )

Trendline Formula

Trough(1,L,10)+((((Trough(1,L,10)-Trough(2,L,10))/(TroughBars(2,L,10)-TroughBars
(1,L,10)))

*TroughBars(1,L,10)))

This formula will draw a trendline from the most recent bottom.

The L (low) can be changed to C (close) and the 10 can be changed to a different percent
value.

You will also need to change the line style to the last one in thedrop down list.
