Morning Bruce - would you please make me a formula for the Stochastic Momentum Index using

6 periods and an 8 ema and no double smoothing and let me know what to check off in the custom

indicator box.     Thanks - Mike

You should be able to just set the Period of the Custom PCF Indicator to 1 and use the following Formula.

200 * (XAVGC8 - (XAVG(MAXH6, 8) + XAVG(MINL6, 8)) / 2) / (XAVG(MAXH6, 8) - XAVG(MINL6, 8))

Hey thanks - you're too quick - I think I must have asked the question wrong.  Let me try again because what I'm looking for are two lines like say the 12-3-3 Stochastic.  The periods would be 6 and the ema would be 8 and they would cross up and down a zero line.  I read about this in Stockcharts.

Thanks again - Mike

Can you point me to an article on how this particular SMI might be calculated? You don't have enough periods if you want to plot a second line for any of the SMI indicators of which I am aware.

200 * (XAVGC6 - (XAVG(MAXH15,6) + XAVG(MINL15,6)) / 2) / (XAVG(MAXH15,6) - XAVG(MINL15,6))

I am using 15 6 Setting

HOW CAN I GET THE 2 FOLLOW TRUE FALSE STATEMENTS

the above crossing UP its 5 period simple moving average

The above crossing Down it 5 period simple moving average

Thanks

dont really need the cross up and down, just the true if above

and True if below

Thanks Aces for the example - looks like it matches my program example.  Only thing missing is the moving average line for crosses - like a Stochastic cross.  Bruce, I'm wondering if a 15 ema on the above index line from Aces would be possible??  I can't find any formulas for you as they only have two inputs. 

Thanks - Mike

200 * (XAVGC6 - (XAVG(MAXH15,6) + XAVG(MINL15,6)) / 2) / (XAVG(MAXH15,6) - XAVG(MINL15,6))

I would also like the formula for 1 bar ago and 2 bars ago

Wish to be able to say

SMI > SMI.1 and SMI.1 > SMI.2

also

SMI < SMI.1 and SMI.1 < SMI.2

Aces4Me,

Since you use TC2000 v17, you can use a shorter version of your formula than is required in TC2000 v7.

200 * XAVG(C - (MAXH15 + MINL15) / 2, 6) / XAVG(MAXH15 - MINL15, 6)

Checking for crossing above its own 5 period simple moving average can be written as follows.

XUP(200 * XAVG(C - (MAXH15 + MINL15) / 2, 6) / XAVG(MAXH15 - MINL15, 6), AVG(200 * XAVG(C - (MAXH15 + MINL15) / 2, 6) / XAVG(MAXH15 - MINL15, 6), 5))

Checking for this crossing down its own 5 period simple moving average can be written as follows.

XDOWN(200 * XAVG(C - (MAXH15 + MINL15) / 2, 6) / XAVG(MAXH15 - MINL15, 6), AVG(200 * XAVG(C - (MAXH15 + MINL15) / 2, 6) / XAVG(MAXH15 - MINL15, 6), 5))

Checking for this being above its own 5 period simple moving average can be written as follows.

200 * XAVG(C - (MAXH15 + MINL15) / 2, 6) / XAVG(MAXH15 - MINL15, 6) > AVG(200 * XAVG(C - (MAXH15 + MINL15) / 2, 6) / XAVG(MAXH15 - MINL15, 6), 5)

Checking for this being below its own 5 period simple moving average can be written as follows.

200 * XAVG(C - (MAXH15 + MINL15) / 2, 6) / XAVG(MAXH15 - MINL15, 6) < AVG(200 * XAVG(C - (MAXH15 + MINL15) / 2, 6) / XAVG(MAXH15 - MINL15, 6), 5)

The 1 bar ago version can be written as follows.

200 * XAVG(C1 - (MAXH15.1 + MINL15.1) / 2, 6) / XAVG(MAXH15.1 - MINL15.1, 6)

And the 2 bars ago version can be written as follows.

200 * XAVG(C2 - (MAXH15.2 + MINL15.2) / 2, 6) / XAVG(MAXH15.2 - MINL15.2, 6)

Moving up two bars in a row can be written as follows.

CountTrue(200 * XAVG(C - (MAXH15 + MINL15) / 2, 6) / XAVG(MAXH15 - MINL15, 6) > 200 * XAVG(C1 - (MAXH15.1 + MINL15.1) / 2, 6) / XAVG(MAXH15.1 - MINL15.1, 6), 2) = 2

Moving down two bars in a row can be written as follows.

CountTrue(200 * XAVG(C - (MAXH15 + MINL15) / 2, 6) / XAVG(MAXH15 - MINL15, 6) < 200 * XAVG(C1 - (MAXH15.1 + MINL15.1) / 2, 6) / XAVG(MAXH15.1 - MINL15.1, 6), 2) = 2

Michaelc1507,

The formula for the 15-period exponential moving average of the non-double smoothed SMI15,6 would be fairly short in TC2000 v17.

XAVG(200 * XAVG(C - (MAXH15 + MINL15) / 2, 6) / XAVG(MAXH15 - MINL15, 6), 15)

But even an approximation is much longer in TC2000 v7.

ty was not sure we had a shorter version

Bruce confused on 1 item

My request was 15,6

ALL the forumulas you provide have 15 and 8 in them

do i need to change the 8 in each to a 6 OR use them as you posted?

Thanks

Thinking the 8 was from Michaelc1507

Yes, you can just replace the 8s with 6s instead.

OK - Bruce - thanks for all your help so far - I think I'm over-thinking this.  Just to be sure though - if I use the non-double smoothed calculations, it's a tad faster than the double smoothed, correct??

Now, would you please stack these for me for comparisons =

Double smoothed 15,6 SMI

Non-Double smoothed

Thanks again - Mike

An SMI 15,6,6 (the version that assumes the double smoothing period is same the same as the somoothing period) can be written as follows in TC2000 v17.

200 * XAVG(XAVG(C - (MAXH15 + MINL15) / 2, 6), 6) / XAVG(XAVG(MAXH15 - MINL15, 6), 6)

An SMI 15,6,1 (the non-double smoothed version) can be written as follows in TC2000 v17.

200 * XAVG(C - (MAXH15 + MINL15) / 2, 6) / XAVG(MAXH15 - MINL15, 6)

Mike

200 * XAVG(C - (MAXH10 + MINL10) / 2, 4) / XAVG(MAXH10 - MINL10,4)

is the 4 considered the smoothing number

Yes, the 4 would be the smoothing factor in that formula.

XUP(200 * XAVG(C - (MAXH10 + MINL10) / 2, 4) / XAVG(MAXH10 - MINL10, 4), AVG(200 * XAVG(C - (MAXH10 + MINL10) / 2, 4) / XAVG(MAXH10 - MINL10, 4), 4))

having issues, i have this on my main chart and on other chart

It is showing false on my main chart on several time frame and on my other chart true on several time frames

Identical formula

i copy from 1 chart to the other, still does not show true when the othe chart does, but if i set alert the alert goes off, when the other chart plots as true, so even though i do not see true on the chart it alerts as if it is

i got it, i had change to pre market earlier (which i generally do not do on that chart

I am happy to read you were able to figure out the issue on your own.

Morning Bruce - would you please reverse your previous example for me - make it a 6 period - non double smoothed - 15 ema for v7 - 

Thanks again - Mike

Please try the following.

200 * (XAVGC14 - (XAVG(MAXH6, 15) + XAVG(MINL6, 15)) / 2) / (XAVG(MAXH6, 15) - XAVG(MINL6, 15))
