Calculating critical R squared value
Jayson,
I should also add that perhaps the cycle period
length determination that Chuck and Ara were talking about might also be a
useful adjunct in setting the period for the current values.

Jayson,
Very nice. What is also nice is if
the following is addded to the Title
+WriteIf<FONT
size=1>(r2pds>0<FONT
size=1>,"Number of Periods"<FONT
size=1>, "Problem as Number of Periods is
set to zero.")+<FONT color=#0000ff
size=1>WriteVal(r2pds);
and if R2PDS is made a parameter
R2PDS = Param("Number of Periods",14,1,100);
In fact I make every constant a parameter in every
formula....

I
put this in the library some time ago. Hope it helps or at least gets you
started...

/*To determine if the trend
is statistically significant for a given x-period linear regression line,
Plot the r-squared indicator and refer to the following table. This table
shows the values of r-squared required for A 95% confidence level at various
time periods. If the r-squared value is less than the critical values shown,
you should assume that prices show no statistically significant

values show the percentage of movement that can be explained by linear

regression. The other 30% is unexplained Random noise.\n While R2 values are
interesting on their own they are easier to interpret when used in
conjunction with Slope. When R2 exceeds its critical Value this indicates
the market is Trending, when the indicator falls below its threshold then a
trend less condition may be in place. \n This table shows the values of
r-squared required for A 95% confidence level at various time periods. If
