Dark green dot - after the finish of the candle? I'm trying to understand at what point dot is changing from light green to dark green@barbaros,
I noticed that when trending Rising appears on your label it is dark red, Shouldn't it turn a shade of green when rising? Also I am testing a version I built with the additions of fractal energy and divergence to identify strong trends. I am very excited about how it is performing. I would like you to take a look at it. You will not regret it. bro.chuck.edwards[?]gmail.?
looking forward so we can test it out this weekendNot just yet. I will keep updating the first page of this post. We might have different versions available here shortly.
No mail yetEmailing you right after this.
There are 2 labels on the left top. One is the "Market Forecast". I reformatted this but didn't change the logic. Market forecast can be rising, but it can be still below 20. If it is, then it will be red. "Trend" label is for MACDBB. Same for that too. It could be below the band and raising but still down trend.

Ooooh... Fractal Energy. Sounds intriguing! I'm looking forward to seeing that one when you've got it ready for public consumption!@barbaros,

@mashume, you should....It works in conjunction with the divergence portion of your,"Hull Moving Average Concavity and Turning Points". Script. I was wondering if you could take a look see at it to work out some kinks. I dont want to post it here , as to not clog up the trend with unfinished untested versions etc. Especially ones I have thrown together. Email me if you can!!!
looks yummy! waiting for the new code
Got itemail sent
can you send the scrip for me?Got it
Hey Chuck, i'm wondering, did you guys use the Dix market forecast indicator or tweaked version?
No, I used the original, that is niceHey Chuck, i'm wondering, did you guys use the Dix market forecast indicator or tweaked version?

okay! did you just use only the label correct? i don't see any lines in your code vs the original one. thank youNo, I used the original, that is nice
@Chuck @barbaros Very Interesting, Being I have a day job and and am getting into swing trading using Hourly/Daily/Weekly Charts. Will this indicator work on those time frames as I see lots of comments and intraday use? ThanksI use the Market Forecast to find buying and selling opportunities based on several timeframes. It gauges “Momentum”, in this case Intermediate. It cycles on daily, weekly, and monthly basis, respectively.
For a swing trade entry:
I use a top-down process starting with the monthly chart
I then look at the weekly chart
Then I go to the daily chart
Then on to the hourly chart
In my opinion that should be the process involved in a day trade as well. The Balanced BB Breakout is a good resource in my opinion to confirm buy signals on all timeframes prior to entry.
Check out our Buy the Dip indicator and see how it can help you find profitable swing trading ideas. Scanner, watchlist columns, and add-ons are included.
