{Hurst_Channel Indicator}
-- these is the user input area where the user gets to set various parameters --
SECTION 1 values
Input: Price1(MedianPrice of Data1);
Input: Length1(10),
ChanWid1(1); {Multiplier for ATR is positive }
{Percent*100 of Current price if Negative}
SECTION 2 values
Input: Price2(MedianPrice of Data1);
Input: Length2(60),
ChanWid2(3);
these apply to both sections
Input: CompMode(0); {Compute mode for extension}
{0 = CMA shortening }
{>0= 2nd degree polynomial }
Input: StopDate(0);
this is the variable declaration area - not required in MS
Vars: ChanHi1(0), ChanLo1(0), WidChan1(Iff(ChanWid1>0,ChanWid1,-ChanWid1*.001)),
Ave1(0), ATR1(0),
SetBack1(IntPortion((Length1-1)/2)+1);
Vars: ChanHi2(0), ChanLo2(0), WidChan2(Iff(ChanWid2>0,ChanWid2,-ChanWid2*.001)),
Ave2(0), ATR2(0),
SetBack2(IntPortion((Length2-1)/2)+1);
Vars: DateStop(iff(stopdate<=0,1211231,StopDate)),Ipass(0);
-- SECTION 1 --
If Length1>0 and Ipass=0 then begin
Ave1 = Average(Price1,Length1);
If ChanWid1>0
then ATR1 = AvgTrueRange(Length1)
else ATR1 = C;
ChanHi1= Ave1+ATR1*WidChan1;
ChanLo1= Ave1-ATR1*WidChan1;
this is a SMA with an ATR channel width, ala Keltner Bands and VERY similar to the results to the code posted years ago in the thread above
Plot1[SetBack1](ChanHi1,"HH1");
Plot2[SetBack1](ChanLo1,"HL1");
this is for forecasting past the last selected date or the last bar
only plots if CompMode>0
If LastBarOnChart or Date>=DateStop then Begin
Value5 = (Ave1-Ave1[SetBack1])/SetBack1;
For Value1 = SetBack1-1 downto 0 begin
Value3=0;
Value4=Value1*2;
For Value2=0 to Value4 begin
Value3=Value3+Price1[Value2];
End;
Ave1=Value3/(Value4+1);
If CompMode>0 then Ave1=Ave1*.33+(Ave1[1]+Value5*(SetBack1-Value1))*.67; this is not a 2nd degree polynomial, it's a form of IIR filter (EMA)
ChanHi1= Ave1+ATR1*WidChan1;
ChanLo1= Ave1-ATR1*WidChan1;
Plot1[Value1](ChanHi1,"HH1");
Plot2[Value1](ChanLo1,"HL1");
End;
If Length2=0 then IPass=1;
End;
End;
-- SECTION 2 --
just a repeat of SECTION 1 to draw a second set of bands, with the second set of user parameters
{Now for second channel}
If Length2>0 and Ipass=0 then begin
Ave2 = Average(Price2,Length2);
If ChanWid2>0
then ATR2 = AvgTrueRange(Length2)
else ATR2 = C;
ChanHi2= Ave2+ATR2*WidChan2;
ChanLo2= Ave2-ATR2*WidChan2;
Plot3[SetBack2](ChanHi2,"HH2");
Plot4[SetBack2](ChanLo2,"HL2");
If LastBarOnChart or Date>=DateStop then Begin
Value5 = (Ave2-Ave2[SetBack2])/SetBack2;
For Value1 = SetBack2-1 downto 0 begin
Value3=0;
Value4=Value1*2;
For Value2=0 to Value4 begin
Value3=Value3+Price2[Value2];
End;
Ave2=Value3/(Value4+1);
If CompMode>0 then Ave2=Ave2*.33+(Ave2[1]+Value5*(SetBack2-Value1))*.67;
ChanHi2= Ave2+ATR2*WidChan2;
ChanLo2= Ave2-ATR2*WidChan2;
Plot3[Value1](ChanHi2,"HH2");
Plot4[Value1](ChanLo2,"HL2");
End;
IPass=1;
End;
End;
So, this plots a variant of Keltner Bands...
It's "odd" code anyway... personally I would not have chosen to write it like this.
