the Twiggs MFI is supposed to be a lot better than the ordinary one which comes with MS. does anyone know if there is a formula for it? Colin Twiggs when he describes its uses, is quite frank about how it works & where it differs, but nowhere can I find the finer details.

it would be interesting to try it out on various charts.

Amory,

As far as I know, this is one variant of it?

Code:

prd:=Input("Periods",1,255,21);

hi:=Max(Ref(C,-1),H);
lo:=Min(Ref(C,-1),L);

x:=V*(2*C-hi-lo)/Max(hi-lo,0.00001);

num:=Wilders(x,prd);
den:=Max(Wilders(V,prd),0.00001);

tmfi:=num/den;

{plot}
tmfi;



Hope this helps.

wabbit [:D]


P.S. One exam down, two to go!

Twigg's Money Flow

periods:=Input("TMF periods",1,100,21);
TRH:=Max(Ref(C,-1),H);
TRL:=Min(Ref(C,-1),L);
TR:=TRH-TRL;
ADV:=((C-TRL)-(TRH-C))/If(TR=0,999999,TR)*V;
WV:=V+(Ref(V,-1)*0);
If(Wilders(WV,periods)=0,0,Wilders(ADV,periods)/Wilders(WV,periods))

thank you gentlemen for complete enlightenment. I tried both versions & got identical result on chart. using 14-day period, it seems to me that the Twiggs is actually more sensitive than the standard version, to changing trends.

thanks again ... amory

When discussing the Twiggs indicator(s) we should acknowledge Colin and Robin Twiggs, and reference the actual source of the TMFI, http://www.incrediblecharts.com/technical/twiggs_money_flow.htm
