Vervoort Heiken Ashi Candlestick OscillatorHeiken-Ashi Candlestick Oscillator (HACO), by Sylvian Vervoort, is a digital oscillator version of the colored candlesticks.
Explanation from Vervoort:
"HACO is not meant to be an automatic trading system, so when there is a buy or sell signal from HACO, make sure it is confirmed by other TA techniques. HACO will certainly aid in signaling buy/sell opportunities and help you hold on to a trade, making it more profitable. The behavior of HACO is closely related to the level and speed of price change. It can be used on charts of any time frame ranging from intraday to monthly."
HACO has 2 configurable length parameters - "UP TEMA length" and "Down TEMA length". Vervoort suggests having them the same value.
I have also added an option to color the bars (overlay mode).

CM_Laguerre PPO PercentileRank - Markets Topping
Original Laguerre PPO code was Created by TheLark.
I found if I applied a Percent Rank of the PPO to view Extreme Moves in the PPO it was great at showing Market Tops.
Features via Inputs Tab:
Ability to set all PPO Indicator Values.
Ability to set Warning Threshold Line Value and Extreme Percentile Threshold Line Values.
Ability to turn On/Off Warning and Extreme Percentile Rank Lines.
***I’ve found this Indicator to be Valid…However, I have NOT Extensively tested the Settings. Initially setting the LookBack Period to 200 on A Daily chart with a 90 Extreme Percentile Rank Value works Good. Some charts changing the Lookback period to 50 an draisisng the Extreme Percentile Rank Line to 95 Works Great.
***To Be Blunt…When I look at the underlying Indicator…I don’t know why this Shows Us What It Does When the Percentile Rank Function is applied to it…But For Whatever Reason…It Just Works.

TWO TRADING SYSTEMS - BASED ON EXTREME MOVES!!!
Elder's Market Thermometer [LazyBear]Market temperature, introduced by Dr.Alexander Elder, helps differentiate between sleepy, quiet and hot market periods.
Following is Mr.Elder's explanation on how to use this indicator (from his book "Come in to my Trading Room"):
"When markets are quiet, the adjacent bars tend to overlap. The consensus of value is well established, and the crowd does little buying or selling outside of yesterday’s range. When highs and lows exceed their previous day’s values, they do so only by small margins. Market Thermometer falls and its EMA slants down, indicating a sleepy market. When a market begins to run, either up or down, its daily bars start pushing outside of the previous ranges. The histogram of Market Thermometer grows taller and crosses above its EMA, which soon turns up, confirming the new trend."
"Market Thermometer gives four trading signals, based on the relationship between its histogram and its moving average:
1) The best time to enter new positions is when Market Thermometer falls below its moving average. When Market Thermometer falls below its EMA, it indicates that the market is quiet. If your system flashes an entry signal, try to enter when the market is cooler than usual. When Market Thermometer rises above its moving average, it warns that the market is hot and slippage more likely.
2) Exit positions when Market Thermometer rises to triple the height of its moving average. A spike of Market Thermometer indicates a runaway move. When the crowd feels jarred by a sudden piece of news and surges, it is a good time to take profits. Panics tend to be short-lived, offering a brief opportunity to cash in. If the EMA of Market Thermometer stands at 5 cents, but the Thermometer itself shoots up to 15 cents, take profits. Test these values for the market you are trading.
3) Get ready for an explosive move if the Thermometer stays below its moving average for five to seven trading days. Quiet markets put amateurs to sleep. They become careless and stop watching prices. Volatility and volume fall, and professionals get a chance to run away with the market. Explosive moves often erupt from periods of inactivity.
4) Market Thermometer can help you set a profit target for the next trading day. If you are a short-term trader and are long, add the value of today’s Thermometer EMA to yesterday’s high and place a sell order there. If you are short, subtract the value of the Thermometer’s EMA from yesterday’s low and place an order to cover at that level."
You can configure the "Explosive Move threshold" (default: 3), "Idle Market Threshold" (default: 7) and "Thermometer EMA length" (default: 22) via Options page.

***At the bottom of the page is a link where you can download the PDF of the Backtesting Results.
This year I am focusing on learning from two of the best mentors in the Industry with outstanding track records for Creating Systems, and learning the what methods actually work as far as back testing.
I came across the RSI-2 system that Larry Connors developed. Larry has become famous for his technical indicators, but his RSI-2 system is what actually put him “On The Map” per se. At first glance I didn’t think it would work well, but I decided to code it and ran backtests on the S&P 100 In Down Trending Markets, Up Trending Markets, and both combined. I was shocked by the results. So I thought I would provide them for you. I also ran a test on the Major forex Pairs (12) for the last 5 years, and All Forex Pairs (80) from 11/28/2007 - 6/09/2014, impressive results also.
The RSI-2 Strategy is designed to use on Daily Bars, however it is a short term trading strategy. The average length of time in a trade is just over 2 days. But the results CRUSH the general market averages.

Directional Trend Index (DTI) This technique was described by William Blau in his book "Momentum,
Direction and Divergence" (1995). His book focuses on three key aspects
of trading: momentum, direction and divergence. Blau, who was an electrical
engineer before becoming a trader, thoroughly examines the relationship between
price and momentum in step-by-step examples. From this grounding, he then looks
at the deficiencies in other oscillators and introduces some innovative techniques,
including a fresh twist on Stochastics. On directional issues, he analyzes the
intricacies of ADX and offers a unique approach to help define trending and
non-trending periods.
Directional Trend Index is an indicator similar to DM+ developed by Welles Wilder.
The DM+ (a part of Directional Movement System which includes both DM+ and
DM- indicators) indicator helps determine if a security is "trending." William
Blau added to it a zeroline, relative to which the indicator is deemed positive or
negative. A stable uptrend is a period when the DTI value is positive and rising, a
downtrend when it is negative and falling.
Indicator: Intrady Momentum IndexThe Intraday Momentum Index (IMI), developed by Tushar Chande, is a cross-breed between RSI and candlestick analysis. IMI determines the candle type that dominated the recent price action, using that to pinpoint the extremes in intraday momentum.
As the market tries to bottom after a sell off, there are gradually more candles with green bodies, even though prices remain in a narrow range. IMI can be used to detect this shift, because its values will increase towards 70. Similarly, as the market begins to top, there will be more red candles, causing IMI to decline towards 20. When the market is in trading range, IMI values will be in the neutral range of 40 to 60.
Usually intraday momentum leads interday momentum. QStick can show interday momentum, it complements IMI. You will find it in my published indicators.
I have added volatility bands based OB/OS, in addition to static OB/OS levels. You can also turn on IMI Ehlers smoothing. BTW, all parameters are configurable, so do check out the options page.

Elder Ray (Bear Power) Strategy Developed by Dr Alexander Elder, the Elder-ray indicator measures buying
and selling pressure in the market. The Elder-ray is often used as part
of the Triple Screen trading system but may also be used on its own.
Dr Elder uses a 13-day exponential moving average (EMA) to indicate the
market consensus of value. Bear Power measures the ability of sellers to
drive prices below the consensus of value. Bear Power reflects the ability
of sellers to drive prices below the average consensus of value.
Bull Power is calculated by subtracting the 13-day EMA from the day's High.
Bear power subtracts the 13-day EMA from the day's Low.

Indicator: Trend Trigger FactorIntroduced by M.H.Pee, Trend Trigger Factor is designed to keep the trader trading with the trend.
System rules according to the developer:
* If the 15-day TTF is above 100 (indicating an uptrend), you will want to be in long positions.
* If the 15-day TTF is below -100, you will want to be short.
* If it is between -100 and 100, you should remain with the current position.

Indicator: Elder Impulse SystemAccording to Elder, "The Impulse System encourages you to enter a trade cautiously but exit fast, by identifying inflection points where a trend speeds up or slows down. This is the professional approach to trading, the total opposite of the amateur's style. Beginners jump into trades without thinking too much and take forever to get out, hoping and waiting for the market to turn their way."
The Impulse System is based on two indicators, a 13-day exponential moving average and the MACD-Histogram. The moving average identifies the trend, while the MACD-Histogram measures momentum. As a result, the Impulse System combines trend following and momentum to identify impulses that can be traded.
By default it uses your chart's time frame, but you can set it to any custom time frame via options page. Optionally, price bars can be color coded too.

Dynamic Momentum Index (DMI) This indicator plots Dynamic Momentum Index indicator. The Dynamic Momentum
Index (DMI) was developed by Tushar Chande and Stanley Kroll. The indicator
is covered in detail in their book The New Technical Trader.
The DMI is identical to Welles Wilder`s Relative Strength Index except the
number of periods is variable rather than fixed. The variability of the time
periods used in the DMI is controlled by the recent volatility of prices.
The more volatile the prices, the more sensitive the DMI is to price changes.
In other words, the DMI will use more time periods during quiet markets, and
less during active markets. The maximum time periods the DMI can reach is 30
and the minimum is 3. This calculation method is similar to the Variable
Moving Average, also developed by Tushar Chande.
The advantage of using a variable length time period when calculating the RSI
is that it overcomes the negative effects of smoothing, which often obscure short-term moves.
The volatility index used in controlling the time periods in the DMI is based
on a calculation using a five period standard deviation and a ten period average
of the standard deviation.
Bill Williams. Awesome Oscillator (AC)Hi
Let me introduce my Bill Williams. Awesome Oscillator (AC) script.
This indicator plots the oscillator as a histogram where blue denotes
periods suited for buying and red . for selling. If the current value
of AO (Awesome Oscillator) is above previous, the period is considered
suited for buying and the period is marked blue. If the AO value is not
above previous, the period is considered suited for selling and the
indicator marks it as red.
Indicator: ElliotWave Oscillator [EWO]This oscillator has to be used in conjunction with other EW tools (certainly cannot be the main indicator).
EWO has:
- Higher values during third waves' up
- Lower but still Positive values during the first and fifth waves up
- Negative values during the biggest corrections or downtrend impulse waves.
Personally, I am still trying to figure out EW, so do not use this. Just wanted to publish this for the EW masters out there who can put this to good use.
Appreciate any comments/feedback.
Indicator: Chande's QStick IndicatorQStick from Tushar Chande (more info => www.investopedia.com)
This numerically identify trends in candlestick charting. It is calculated by taking an 'n' period moving average of the difference between the open and closing prices. A Qstick value greater than zero means that the majority of the last 'n' periods have been up, indicating that buying pressure has been increasing
I added more markings to clearly highlight the divergences (marked them in the chart above).
Appreciate any comments/feedback.
