Re: [amibroker] Re: Time Series Forecast/Forecast Oscillator

CS & list,
 
I'm not up to speed on AB code...yet.  Here's 
a TSF approach that can work well.  Attached is a chart of KLAC, showing 
triggers on the Forecast Oscillator (same indicator).  The Forecast 
Oscillator is a TSF set to 13 periods (in this example).  In this case, 
whenever price moves more than 11% (in the opposite direction of your position) 
from the projected linear regression, you reverse your position (all signals are 
calculated EOD, and position are put on the following opening) .  Since 
1/1/2000, this has produced results, in KLAC, of 28-9 with a return of $159(no 
slippage or commissions).  Just thought I'd toss in an approach that, at 
times, can extract a few pennies.
 
Take care,
 
Steve

Forecast

"The Time Series Forecast indicator is based on the trend of 
a security's price over a specified time period.  The trend is determined 
by calculating a linear regression trendline using the "least squares fit" 
method.  The least squares fit technique fits a trendline to the data in 
the chart by minimizing the distance between the data points and the linear 
regression trendline.  Any point along the Time Series Forecast is 
equal to the ending value of a Linear Regression trendline plus its 
slope.  For example, the ending value of a Linear Regression trendline 
(plus its slope) that covers 10 days will have the same value as a 10-dayTime 
Series Forecast.  This differs slightly from the Linear Regression 
indicator (see Linear Regression Indicator) in that the Linear Regression 
indicator does not add the slope to the ending value of the regression 
line.  This makes the TSF a bit more responsive to short term price 
changes.  If you plot the TSF and the Linear Regression indicator 
side-by-side, you'll notice that the TSF hugs the prices more closely than the 
Linear Regression indicator.
 
Rather than plotting a straight Linear Regression trendline, 
the Time Series Forecast indicator plots the ending values of multiple Linear 
Regression trendlines.  The resulting Time Series Forecast indicatoris 
sometimes referred to as a "moving linear regression" study or a "regression 
oscillator.""
 
I use it as a type of moving average or smoother of other 
indicators. Sometimes.
