TrendLord Indicator [Upd Oct, 05]

Alexander.Gettinger · Sun Sep 05, 2010 10:29 pm

Update Oct, 05 2010. The indicator performance is improved and additional features are provided for in-strategies and in-signal usage.

The indicator is a port of Metatrader TrendLord indicator.

Trendlord indicator shows the trend direction. A green bar means uptrend and a red bar means down trend.

A green bar appears when TrendLordFunction is above the previous value and a red bar appears when it’s below the previous value.

Important! The indicator repaints one bar back when direction is switched. So, the signal and/or strategy will show the signal two bars back against the displayed value.

The function is LWMA(LWMA(close, N), SquareRoot(N)) where N is the indicator parameters.

Something like this. Your request is not eloquent at best, and It is difficult to decipher it.

Sorry about that…

  1. I download the new file and it will not show up under my strategies.. check it on your end..

  2. After looking at other strategies I think I was asking for was a MA Filter based on a timeframe..This may be what you did, once I can load it and look..

So a Buy trade would be as (1 min chart) Trendlord green if price above 1hr 50 MA Buy

Trendlord green if price below 1hr 50 MA do nothing

Trendlord red if price below 1hr 50 MA sell

Trendlord red if price above 1hr 50 MA do nothing

Hi Apprentice,

Will the indicator still repaint if the data source is set to ‘open’ price? Asking because the ‘open’ price does not repaint in general.

Regards,


Re: TrendLord Indicator [Upd Oct, 05]

Apprentice · Wed Aug 30, 2017 4:29 am

LWMA MA is used. LWMA repaint for Current candle only. If open price is used, this will NOT be the case.
