EMA Alternate

Exponential Moving Average of the Value that primes with the Value itself on bar 1 and uses the EMA smoothing constant only.

Exponential Moving Average

Exponential Moving Average of the Value that primes with a simple moving average of the Value, and then uses the EMA smoothing constant thereafter.

Highest Value

Highest Value for N bars

Keltner Lower

Lower channel of the Keltner Band.

Keltner Upper

Upper channel of the Keltner Band. Uses an atr based channel width from an EMA. Both the ATR and EMA are computed in the alternate fashion, with the bar 1 values as the prime value.

Lowest Value

Lowest Value for N bars

MACD-Convergence Divergence

MACD for the value. The short moving average minus the long moving average. Uses the simple moving average to prime the short and long exponential moving averages.

MACD Alternate

Alternate version of the MACD, using the bar 1 value as the prime value rather than using a simple moving average.

Midpoint

Price that is the value between the current price, and the price at the offset price bar.

Range

Returns the range value of the highest-high to lowest-low from bar prices within the range.
