FW_DPO_MOBO Script

[Shooters_Gotta_Shoot]

Hey everyone,

I've been utilizing the FW_DPO_MOBO Indicator and I would like to code it into one of my strategies. The problem is that when you go to copy and paste the script to implement it into a strategy, the script says "Source code isn't available." The TTM_Squeeze Indicator has this same problem, but I've seen reiterations of the script to make it the same as the original indicator. I was wondering if anyone has the script for the FW_DPO_MOBO Indicator that is editable and able to be coded into a strategy. I know it is a combination of Bollinger Bands and the Detrended Price Oscillator, but the original indicator somehow scales the Bollinger Bands in a special way for the Detrended Price Oscillator to work better with it. I will post the code for the FW_DPO_MOBO so you can see what I am talking about.

Any help would be much appreciated!

Hi Mashume,

Do you know if the FW_MMG or FW_FisherTransformer indicators can be found anywhere? These are the two that are not included on the FW website.

Best,
Mitch

They are both in ToS, just without source code.

Just remember that you need to reference the FW_DPO_MOBO for every plot you want to use... I have my own custom versions and have posted my short version below... Note that my settings differ from the original release...

I can't find the link for this indicator.

I can't find the link for this indicator.

The script that you included in your post is @rad14733's indicator.

If your question is how to cut & paste the script into your chart:

I use the one here from @rad14733: https://usethinkscript.com/threads/fw_dpo_mobo-script.4771/#post-44180. He does use different lengths.
This indicator appears on most of my charts. I buy dips and then look for reversals.
I am not a fan of arrows, especially w/ oscillators, especially w/ this particular script. For me, it is more about how the oscillator is lining up with your other three non-collinear indicators on your three timeframes.

This is very interesting @MerryDay , and @rad14733
I find your MomentumBreakout function fascinating and your explanations you shared enlightening.

This learnings here might be applied to others analogous problems as well.

In particular I think I might use this with our relative volume studies to understand how mobile an volume might be. Or rather why some unusual volumes are more restless than others.

Thank you and have a happy new year.
