Trading Strategy in Excel.

Hi,

I was hoping someone might be able to help me. I am trying to build a trading strategy in Excel. I can get most data i.e. closing price, volume etc… but I want to use technical analysis formulas in Excel to give me the RSI or MACD etc.. which then shows a buy or sell signal.

Is there an excel book that shows me such formulas or a web site?

Many Thanks!

Re: Trading Strategy in Excel.

Judge:

1. How did you get your data into excel. I have tried to use the wizard Data Connection in MS Excel 2007 but I can't connect to my 3rd party provider, BarChart. Any ideas?

2. Sharing a simple template would be appreciated.

James

Re: Trading Strategy in Excel.

There's a book called Technical Analysis from A to Z. It's an encyclopedia of all technical indicators with their formulas. They are easy adopt to an excel formula.
A cheaper way would be to google for them formulas.
Here's what I've just found on RSI:
Relative Strength Index (RSI) - ChartSchool - StockCharts.com

eww, I just see your post is from 2007

Re: Trading Strategy in Excel.

Hi TheJudge,

try this website http://www.etrading.sk/en/technical-...excel-download
There you can find some indicators in Excel files.

There are also the formulas on the website if you need them.

I hope it can help you.
