Using the Slope of an Indicator to define the Trend

Using the Slope of an Indicator to define the Trend One of the most used techniques to define the Trend of a Market is looking at the Slope of an Indicator. Usually a Moving Average like HMA, EMA, SMA provide a good idea of the trend, having the first one ( HMA ) the fastest, and the last one ( SMA ) the slowest reaction. On this Chart we can see an example of 3 Indicators using the same Period : If we look at the Trend Changes, then the signals on each Indicator happens on the shown points : We can even look at combinations of Indicators to define the trend. For example, looking at a fast EMA to produce the quickest results may also produce too much signals, most of them not good, as we can see on this Chart : Here I apply an HMA(8) to get the fastest response : But to avoid so many signals, we can Average this line, using an EMA(8) of the HMA(8) and it looks like this : On all type of moving average types, using a small period offers more response, less del...

Defining a Trade Setup using Crossovers with Ninjatrader

Image
Hello Traders ! Today we are reviewing several Indicators that can be used to define a Crossover Trade Setup. There are some Indicators that produce only one line, like EMA, SMA, HMA, etc. Then we can use 2 Instances of same Indicator with different settings and check its Crossovers. Examples :  Crossovers of an EMA(14) vs EMA(7) Note : The places where the Blue Line crosses above the Cyan Line there is a Long Entry Signal. Where the Blue Line crosses below the Cyan Line there is a Short Entry Signal. On these type of Setups the Best Results can be obtained with faster Indicators like the HMA.  The HMA produces faster and less lagged results as we can see on this Chart Crossovers between an HMA(26) and an HMA(12) : Note : On this example the Crossovers are indicated with Arrows using the Custom Indicator TIS_HMA_XO The Entry Signals produced by the TIS_HMA_XO Indicator can be automated using the The Markers System . Some other Indicato...
