It discusses that its looking the individual pairs, and then plotting them vs the net-change, I believe.. I have to listen to it a few more times, and catch that part again.. But you can sign up for a demo of it.. I do find it very helpful.. BUT the 297/00 month price tag is getting expensive....
I've posted below some examples of the indicator vs the one developed in NT 7.0
As you can see it looks similar, but NOT exactly similar... Not sure if anyone had any input or suggestion on the math formula..
The formula used is summarized:
EURUSD is up .001 on the day(USD is base, so we give negative multiplier)
USDJPY is up .001 on the day (USD is quote, so we give positive multiplier)
USDCAD is down .002 on the day (USD is quote, so we give positive multiplier)
I then divide the net change for the day by the ticksize for the pair.

Any suggestions for getting it JUST right, would be very helpful.....
Do you have to have it 'just right' ?? Maybe I am misunderstanding: is the plan to trade the pair that has the max difference at a point in time? Since I dont see timestamps anywhere it is difficult to look at history ... for the dat in question it looks like Pound gained strength and Yen weaken, so the GBPJPY would be developing the best potential for momentum in a trade?? From the looks of your results you have a workable solution already.
Otherwise, I personally would consider a ROC(LinReg(Ratio2Instruments)) type of experiment to see what type of output you get, but yours looks very doable.
I corrected the main formula used to determine the overall strength/weakness of the different currencies, and so far so good, it needs a few minor tweaks done, more cosmetic than anything, but its doing what we want it to do. Will post some screen shots when I have some time..
Are you making any adjustment for time of day or volatility at time of day? Ratios are interesting, and potentially could be redundatnt if a pair is at the time of day where that market is too thin but still modifing the calculations affecting other pairs.
