The Traders Dynamic Index is a trend following momentum indicator based on the RSI. It was developed and presented by Dean Malone. The Traders Dynamic Index comes with the following plots

- the Priceline, which is a SMA(2) of RSI(13)
- the Signalline, which is a SMA(7) of RSI (13)
- the Midband, which is a SMA(34) of RSI (13)
- Bollinger Bands around the SMA(34) using a standard deviation multiplier of 1.62

The following combinations may be considered as trade rules:

- go long, if Priceline > 50
- go short if Priceline < 50
- consider an exit, if Priceline is above 68 or below 32

- go long if Priceline > Signalline
- go short if Priceline < Signalline
- exit if Priceline crosses Signalline

- trendfilter long, when Priceline > Midband
- trendfilter short, when Priceline < Midband

- add to long, when Priceline > upper Bollinger Band
- add to short, when Priceline < lower Bollinger Band

Detailed rules how to use the Traders Dynamic Index have been published by Dean Malone within the framework of the E.A.S.Y. trading method.

Gaussian Filter as described by John Ehlers in his paper "Gaussian and Other Low Lag Filters".

https://www.mesasoftware.com/papers/GaussianFilters.pdf

You may set the number of poles in the filter to 1,2,3 or 4. A 1-pole filter will have a better approximation to price, whereas the 4-pole filter has superior smoothing.

The N-Monthly VWAP is the volume-weighted average price (VWAP) of a security for the selected N-month period. The VWAP gives a fair reflection of the market conditions throughout the selected period and is one of the most popular benchmarks used by large traders.

The N-Monthly VWAP can be set to calculate for the entireperiod or it can be set to calculate for custom hours such as the regular session only. The VWAP further comes with volume-weighted standard deviation bands or quarter range bands. Although the VWAP uses volume information, it is best set to “Calculate” = “On price change”. It is not necessary to recalculate it with each incoming tick.

Trading hours template: The trading hours template should be set to <instrument settings> or any other trading hours template that reflects the contractual trading hours of the instrument.

Full_Session: The VWAP will be calculated for the full session as selected per trading hours template.

Custom_Hours: You may select custom hours for calculating the VWAP in different time zones.

Standard_Deviation: The volatility bands are calculated as a selectable multiple of the standard deviation, where the standard deviation is calculated for the selected session and week.

Quarter_Range: The volatility bands are calculated as a selectable multiple of the quarter range for the current month.

Accuracy: The indicator calculates both VWAP and volatility bands from the primary bars shown on the chart. All data points of each bar are used for the calculation in order to obtain the best possible result. However, accuracy also depends on the chart resolution. Accuracy increases as trading volume accumulates.

Release Date 9/4/2017

This indicator is based on the article in the Stocks and Commodities Magazine, August, 2017 edition titled “The Reverse EMA (REMA) Indicator” written by John F. Ehlers. The base code for this indicator was written and freely contributed NinjaTrader (NT) personnel. Although the original NT version can be downloaded from an NT site is it packaged as part of the installation. The modified indicator provided is named fpgMultiREMA. No modifications were made to the NT version.


Ehlers describes this indicator as a “causal forward and backward indicator” further stating that it “provides a clean and crisp output that can adapted to cycle, momentum, and trend activity”. The indicator described by Ehlers and provided by NT (named REMA) is a single plot with a single controlling parameter. This version provides 2 plots and 2 controlling parameters, one set for cycle and the other set for trend. Plot and zero line characteristics can easily be controlled. The trend and cycle alpha control values are set as described in the article and can be varied according to one’s trading strategy and chart settings.


In the article Ehlers does not described how the REMA can be used however, given that it is a potential substitute for the EMA one possibility is to use multiple REMAs, one set to trend and the other to cycle alpha values, as provided by this indicator. The user will need to experiment to see what crossings (cycle, trend, or zero line) might be usable as trading signals as no signals are produced in this version. A future extended version will have enhancements that will collect and expose values that potentially can be used to produce signals.


The provided screen shot shows the indicator in the lower panel with the price panel containing a 13 period EMA (green) and a 20 period SMA (White) for comparison purposes.

The Current Day VWAP is the volume-weighted average price (VWAP) of a security for the current day’s trading session. The VWAP gives a fair reflection of the market conditions throughout the trading day and is probably the most popular benchmark used by large traders.

The Current Day VWAP can be set to calculate for the entire trading day or it can be set to calculate for custom hours such as the regular session only. The VWAP further comes with volume-weighted standard deviation bands or quarter range bands. Although the VWAP uses volume information, it is best set to “Calculate” = “On price change”. It is not necessary to recalculate it with each incoming tick.

Trading hours template: The trading hours template should be set to <instrument settings> or any other trading hours template that reflects the contractual trading hours of the instrument.

Full_Session: The VWAP will be calculated for the full session as selected per trading hours template.

Custom_Hours: You may select custom hours for calculating the VWAP in different time zones.

Standard_Deviation: The volatility bands are calculated as a selectable multiple of the standard deviation, where the standard deviation is calculated for the selected session.

Quarter_Range: The volatility bands are calculated as a selectable multiple of the quarter range for the current session.

Accuracy: The indicator calculates both VWAP and volatility bands from the primary bars shown on the chart. All data points of each bar are used for the calculation in order to obtain the best possible result. However, accuracy also depends on the chart resolution. Accuracy increases as trading volume accumulates. Therefore it is recommended to select an early anchor point and only use VWAP and volatility bands once they have stabilized.
