Thread: Alligator indicator

#Alligator #Indicators #Definedge

Alligator indicator is created by Bill Williams. He was a popular trader and author.

Before we discuss the indicator, let us understand an important concept.

Here is a chart showing 10 day moving average at bar A. Price of the stock is 100, Moving average price is 90.

What if we shift this moving average to 5 bars further? See the chart below.

Moving average at bar B is moving average price of bar A (5 candles behind). This is shifting of moving average price. What does it mean?

Simple explanation is – shifting the moving average can help one compare current price with past period moving average easily. It results in smoothening instead of increasing the moving average parameter. This is also known as Forward Displaced moving average.

Thread: Super trend indicator:

Developed by Olivier Seban, Super trend is an indicator plotted on the price chart like a moving average.

Let us discuss three important components of this indicator.

1: Range-price.

In every bar or candle, we have four prices - Open, High, Low, Close.

We have the option to select any price of above to define the trend.

For example, we may define an uptrend as today’s close being above yesterday’s close.

We can also calculate range price of every bar. It is also known as Average price or Mid-price.

Range price = (High + Low) / 2

Have a look at the images below.

In the first Image below , the closing price of each candle is connected to the closing price of the next candle.

In the below chart, the “range-price” or the mid-point of each candle is connected.

@rachitagrawal97 Hammer at bottom = bullish
Same pattern is Hanging man when appears at top = bearish
Inverted hammer at bottom = bullish
Same pattern is shooting star when appears at top = bearish.

I have tested bullish & bearish brrakout of these patterns.

Thread: Darvas Box Theory

#Darvas #knowledgesharing #Definedge

Nicolas Darvas (1920 – 1977) was a professional dancer and he travelled around the world. He founded a Dance company in 1950s. Someone offered him shares against his Dance programme and that is how he came across stock market and the business of trading.

He reportedly turned thousand dollars into millions in the late 1950s.

He wrote a popular book during 1960 “How I made $2000000 in Stock Market” in which he explained his Box theory. It is a must read.

He used a combination fundamental and technical approach for investing.

He believed in investing in only growth stocks. I think he did not explain a few things in his book, and I found some difference in interpretation of box-theory at various places because of that. This post is my interpretation of his theory.

Darvas was tracking stocks only making new high. I do not think he really talked about 52-week high. He mentioned about stocks breaking 2-3 year high. But 52-week high is mostly tracked for this theory so let us keep it that way to begin with for the sake of objectivity.

How to assess if a stock is too extended? Many find it difficult to assess the matured stage of a very strong uptrending stock.
1 easy way is avoid entering in the 5th base onwards during Stage 2 of the stock. For eg, Base count of #Intellect is in pic.
