Ease of Movement Signals

Recommended Posts

Guest Tresor

Hello guys,

 

I was trying to convert RSI midline cross signals (that was kindly coded by Blu-Ray) into Ease of Movement midline cross signals, but I failed. Could someone please help me with this code?

 

inputs:

Price( avgprice ),

Length( 50 ),

ProfitTarget(150),

StopLoss(100);

 

variables: MyEOM( 0 ) ;

 

MyEOM = EaseOfMovement( Price, Length ) - 50;

 

If MyEOM Crosses above 0 then buy next bar at market;

 

If MyEOM Crosses below 0 then sellshort next bar at market;

 

 

setprofittarget(ProfitTarget);

Setstoploss(StopLoss);

 

 

 

Regards

Just modify this line:

 

MyEOM = EaseOfMovement( Price, Length );

 

It should now work fine...... I put the " -50 " in the RSI as that indicator has a midline of 50, whereas the EOM's midline is already 0.

 

Hope this helps

Hello Blu-Ray,

 

I tried this code:

 

inputs:

Price( avgprice ),

Length( 50 ),

ProfitTarget(150),

StopLoss(100);

 

variables: MyEOM( 0 ) ;

 

MyEOM = EaseOfMovement( Price, Length );

 

If MyEOM Crosses above 0 then buy next bar at market;

 

If MyEOM Crosses below 0 then sellshort next bar at market;

 

 

setprofittarget(ProfitTarget);

Setstoploss(StopLoss);

 

but still no luck, cannot be compiled :(

ESL function EaseofMovement does not take any inputs. You may have copied this from some other platform. Try rewriting your own EaseOfMovement function (name it as _TEaseOfMovement for example) as follows:

inputs: Price (numericseries), SmoothingLength (numericsimple);

{ EOM = 100 * MFI * MidPointMove; note that this formula is a simpler mathematical 
 equivalent of Richard Arms' original formula }

if BarType >= 2 then { ie, not tick/minute data } 
_TEaseOfMovement = Average( 100 * MFI( Volume ) * ( ( Price ) - ( Price )[1] ) * .5 , SmoothingLength)
else { if tick/minute data; in the case of minute data, also set the "For volume, 
use:" field in the Format Symbol dialog to Trade Vol or Tick Count, as desired }
_TEaseOfMovement = Average( 100 * MFI( Ticks ) * ( ( Price ) - ( Price )[1] ) * .5  , SmoothingLength);

 

Be sure to change your original strategy signal file line number 9:

 

MyEOM = _TEaseOfMovement( Price, Length );
