Richard,
89 day time series MA with a 8 day lead and a 8 ema with a 7 lead for short term. Standard error lines from last major high or low.
Thanks for the suggestion!
My interpretation of what you wrote was:
1. Put a moving average in a sub-window with time periods = 8, vertical shift = 0, horizontal shift = 7, method = Exponential, price field = Close. I made this Red.
2. Add another moving average in the same sub-window with time periods = 89, vertical shift = 0, horizontal shift = 8 method = time series, price field = close. I made this one blue.
How to interpret: When the 8 ema crosses above the 89 tma is a "buy" and when the 8 ema crosses below the 89 tma it is a "sell".
Right so far?
Now, could I impose on you to suggest a couple of securities to work with so that I can learn/practice the above in conjunction with your other suggestion: "Standard error lines from last major high or low"?
BTW, since you hooked me on histograms is there any way to formulize the moving averages above into a histogram? I experimented and came up with a formula:
Mov(C,8,E) - Mov(C,89,T) and the line style of histogram..
but can't find a way to do the horizontal shift..
Can this be accomplished?
Greatly appreciate your help!
