There are so many approaches to this it boggles the mind. I would
suggest you use the index that closely represents the whole market.
RUT or NYA is what I use. If you are looking at NASDAQ stocks only
use IXIC. If you want to view the index on the same chart pick an
indicator you want, e.g. EMA(5,15) for shorter term trends and use
the Foreign function to get the close for the index of choice and
plot the EMAs or whatever indicator you want. Then if Ema 5 > ema 15
then you have an upward trend on the index. The you could use the
same EMAs to see of the stock is also in an upward trend. So the
logic would be - buy = iif(foreign ema = buy AND stock ema = buy, 1,
0); You will have to do the code for the conditional statement in
the IIF and replace the "foreign ema = buy" with the true code. Sell
is the opposite condition. Done this way the buy and sell points
will be spikes on the chart so you won't have to look at graphs.
This logic works in back test too. I have some examples of how to
combine multiple indicators into a buy or sell signals on my
website,www.imageview.us. Take the AmiBroker link. Many of the
formulas there are what I use to time stock entry/exit points. They
are pretty basic but I still obey the KISS principle.
