Moxie Indicator for ThinkorSwim

[cos251]

Thank you for clarification. So how do we use above indicator and on which timeframe it works ?

This is the link provided on page 1 of this post about the indicator. This is just like any oscillator and the idea behind this (as is the case with most indicators now) is to set it for a higher timeframe or use it on multiple timeframes to help trade with the trend and find appropriate entries.

Can Someone let me know how to scan for up arrows?. I am getting the error. secondary agg. is not allowed!
Thanks.

 

[MerryDay]

@Ramesh16 This scans for the Moxie indicator w/o any of the multiple aggregation periods.

Link to scan: http://tos.mx/YEmcyTU

#Moxie Salty Port for ThinkOrSwim SCANNER VERSION ONLY

    plot sData = (vc1 - va1) * 3;
}
def price = close;
def s2 = Moxie(price);

plot moxieUpArrow = (Sign (s2 - s2[1]) > Sign (s2[1] - s2[2]));
#plot moxieDownArrow = (Sign (s2 - s2[1]) < Sign (s2[1] - s2[2]));

 

[Ramesh16]

Thank you so much MerryDay!!

 

[greg44]

Yes, Thank you Merry Day. I was wondering if you knew how to create your scan (or any scan) using this thread's script to look for Moxie when it is above zero (or below). Greatly helpful.

 

[MerryDay]

@greg44

There are a couple of studies in this thread but if you are using the one listed in Post#29 by @diazlaz
wouldn't you just scan for:
NameOfYourStudy()."pMoxie" > 0 or NameOfYourStudy()."pMoxie" < 0

Did you get some sort of error when you made the attempt?
And aren't you going to get every stock in the universe in your results? Aren't almost all stocks above or below zero?

 

[greg44]

Thanks for getting back. Just doing two separate scans either above or below zero. No, when I tried the "pMoxie" > 0, I get "Secondary period not allowed: Weekly. Ideally I am trying to do on an hourly time frame but still get "secondary period not allowed: Day."

 

[MerryDay]

Sorry @greg44
I forgot about that pesky "secondary period not allowed: Day."
Here is your scan:

#Moxie Salty Port for ThinkOrSwim SCANNER VERSION ONLY
# 2020.10.02 V1.0 @diazlaz
script Moxie {
    input priceC = close;
    def vc1 = ExpAverage(priceC , 12) - ExpAverage(priceC , 26);
    def va1 = ExpAverage(vc1, 9);
    plot sData = (vc1 - va1) * 3;
}
def price = close;
def s2 = Moxie(price);
plot pMoxie = s2 ;

plot moxieUpArrow = (Sign (s2 - s2[1]) > Sign (s2[1] - s2[2]));
#plot moxieDownArrow = (Sign (s2 - s2[1]) < Sign (s2[1] - s2[2]));

 

[greg44]

Thank you MerryDay! That appears to work. Yes those secondary periods are pesky. Quickly, what in your code would I change to make Moxie < 0?
You have been tremendously helpful.

 

[MerryDay]

@greg44
scan for:
NameOfYourStudy()."pMoxie" > 0 or NameOfYourStudy()."pMoxie" < 0

 

[greg44]

My bad MerryDay. Stupid on my part. Apologies.
Are you familiar with the JC RAF indicator? I had a question on a different thread awaiting an answer.

Thanks again MerryDay. I am finding that TOS many times doesn't read the scan as is meant since many of the stocks that I have as >0 still come up below 0, even if that is the only thing I have in a scan, no matter the period I choose. Probably a deficiency in TOS scanning capabilities.
I have been using the post #56 script if that makes a difference. Shows the change in color as Moxie rises or declines.

 

[rad14733]

@greg44 One thing to remember is that if you run a scan after hours the price may have changed from the close of the trading day... That could explain differences or, as you explained it, deficiencies...

Hi @cos251, anyway to apply this to a scanner so I can plot as the red or green arrows are beginning on daily chart and mtf? Thanks.

Hi @Joseph Patrick 18 - the code in post #63 should work for scans. You won't be able to use the MTF version of the indicator for scans as that will result in a "too complex error". But you can setup up the scan in 63 as multiple filters and scan each time frame.

Thanks appreciate your help! I missed it..

 

[BONDIEU]

I've downloaded and tested the Moxie Salty Port indicator which works just great (WOW) for Daily and Hourly.
The 15 minute does not lined as well.
Has anyone ever figured out how TG uses the Moxie indicator on the 15 minute chart?


Thanks a bunch

 

[greg44]

I have tried the scan in post #63, but I get "Exactly one plot expected" when I create it in thinkscript in a scan and thus cannot save it. . Any ideas? Thanks.

 

[SmellyCat]

Thought I'd add my three cents, or Three Time Frames to this "Mooxie" Indicator. Haha! Adjustable as needed within the study.
Hope someone likes the sharing
