Ok Preston thanks you for your explanation
Here this is the system for every one
1. 200 moving average must be at least 4.5 *(10)ATR greater than it was 50 days ago
2. ATR(30)/Mov(C,30,S)>300000
3. the trun over of 21 days must > than 30000
4.standard error gate (C,100) <0.32
5. close is the lowest low value in 8 days
6. this system perform best for blue chips
Regards
Adam
Now I become clear

Adam,
You can smooth at any point in an indicator BUT you should always
ask at what cost and to what benefit. Let me explain. Smoothing is a
way of taking the average over a period of time. It introduces lag
or will slow down the responsiveness of the indicator. Try it for
yourself...plot a close and a 5 day moving average on a daily chart.
What happens? The close which has no lag on a daily chart and will
always lead the moving average in direction and value.
Your first consideration then should be whether or not you will
benefit from the lag. In this instance as you have seen there is no
benefit to using a weighted average. The reason is in the
calculation of weighted versus exponential. An exponential average
uses a percentage of recent calculations along with a percentage of
previous calculations. Thus it is less likely to go to a zero value.
Obviously a weighted average could have a zero value.
The problem that you have encountered is a division by zero error
and is one that has plagued coders for some time especially when
dealing with a RSI type of calculation which the DMI is. There are a
number of ways to solve the problem. In the various codes that I
presented there were several solutions. You have just found one.
Another is using Max(vt,.0000001) . In this code you are simply
telling metastock to use the higher value of vt or .00000001.
Therefore you would never have a zero value. Prev, prev is another
way to solve the problem. My preference is not to use the prev
statement simply because prev statements tend to slow down the
calculation process.
As far as smoothing you might want to smooth the final output value.
Here you should be able to use any method without encountering any
division error problems.
I did notice your request for DMI systems. Here are some helpful
hints. The DMI trades just like the RSI so any system that uses it
will be adaptable to the DMI.
Normally, the RSI is useless when the up or positive values equal
the minus or down values. Since the RSI is scaled from 0 to 100 this
occurs around the value of 50(failure value). There is also a
limitation of the RSI when the 0 to 100 scale is used. In other
words it is bound by its range. To overcome this obstacle I
introduced a bipolar version of the indicator. The bipolar version
takes away the scaling limitations allowing the values to exceed 100
and moves the failure value to 0. Therefore it becomes far easier to
associate the swings beyond the plus or minus 50 with some other
turning event such as an increase in trading volume. Some beneficial
reading might be the books of Wilder or Chande & Kroll.
Hope you find this helpful,
Preston
