Market Thrust Oscillator: Exponential MovAvg Difference

Abbreviation: Market Thrust Oscillator: ExpAvg Diff
Category: Market Advance / Decline
Input Parameters:

Name Range Default
Advancing Issues
Declining Issues
Volume of Advancing Issues
Volume of Declining Issues
ExpAvg1 Periods Int >=1 5
ExpAvg2 Periods Int >=1 10

 
Calculation:

ExpAvg(X, ExpAvg1 Periods) – ExpAvg(X, ExpAvg2 Periods)

where
X = Market Thrust Oscillator(Advancing Issues, Declining Issues, Volume Advancing Issues, Volume Declining Issues)

Market Thrust Oscillator represents Market Thrust Oscillator
ExpAvg represents Exponential Moving Average

 
Discussion:

This indicator attempts to quantify movements in the Market Thrust Oscillator indicator by calculating the difference between two moving averages. Since it uses exponential moving averages (which give more importance to the most recent periods than to less recent periods), the indicator tends to focus more upon movement occurring in the most recent periods.
