Brief Description:
Riley's Movement Index is a new indicator developed and named after me.
RMI is quite interesting in that uses two lines to cross each other.
One line represents the bullish side of the market, and the other line represents the bearish side of the market.
A signal occurs when the two lines cross each other.
-------------------------------------------
Calculation:
Up
1. high > prev high?
2. If yes, then Up = (high - prev high)
3. If no, then Up = 0
Dn
1. low < prev low?
2. If yes, then Dn = (prev low - low)
3. If no, then Dn = 0
SumUp (n) = Sum of Up over n periods
SumDn (n) = Sum of Dn over n periods
Plot SumUp & SumDn lines.
-------------------------------------------
How to interpret a signal:
When SumUp > SumDn, market is bullish.
When SumUp < SumDn, market is bearish.
-------------------------------------------
Recommended setting:
I would suggest a setting of 10, the default setting.
