Uh oh -- you've forgotten about the "ineluctable modality" of this formula. It's been transformed since you last laid eyes on it. Check this note:

The new formula is:
((4*(Std(C,20))/Mov(C,20,S))- Llv((4*(Std(C,20)/Mov(C,20,S))),260))/ (Hhv((4*(Std(C,20)/Mov(C,20,S))),260)- Llv((4*(Std(C,20)/Mov(C,20,S))),260)+.001)*100
You anticipated the change of periods, I see. And you anticipated the compelling discussion of highest and lowest.
Richard's opinion is that Lowest low = obsession with useless, illusive, elusive Bollinger bands by delusional newbies.
While I took the view that Highest high = finally translating the formula correctly.
I've got the parentheses right at last, after resorting to colored pencils; in fact, I'm thinking of trading my WOW program in for colored pencils.
I could still go back and shorten the formula with your Formula A, but I don't want Richard to break into "Here We Go Again" or "Crying Time" again. Also, I've found that long formulas lend an air of authority to my silly notes. |
