TMA Slope

The TMA Slope oscillator is a simple slope of a Triangular Moving Average compared and normalized with the Average True Range of the last 100 periods (default setting).

This specific version add 2 triggers to give trading signals according to the slope:

Above superior trigger, the trend is bullish, so trading is “Buy Only”
Below inferior trigger, the trend is bearish, trading is “Sell Only”
If the slope is included between these 2 levels, the market is probably ranging and no new orders should be initiated

These trading signals should be compared between different timeframes (attached examples), for a better accuracy.

Tx Nicolas. Looks very interresting. No text display on my charts. Any specific option to tick somewhere on the PRT interface to have it displayed or … ?
Tx again and in advance.
- Nicolas • 10/31/2017 #
  Be sure to have these settings set with these values:
  //edblHigh1 = 0.04
  //edblLow1 = -0.04
  (not sure if it’s the case in the ITF file..).
