WideBar for TS

Package: WideBar Suite for TradeStation

The market makes an obvious move, quickly. The recent, rough equality between supply and demand is clearly upset, visual and immediate on the chart for you to see. Almost nothing is as obvious in the short term as a wide bar, sticking out from all the rest like a sore thumb.

But what does it really mean? What sorts of opportunities are heralded, and how can they be quantified?

Does the wide bar represent new momentum, after which continuation is probable? Or does it represent the running of stops and the folding of weak hands, after which a reversal is probable? Maybe both, depending. Until you've measured and studied, how could you know?

CFT's WideBar Suite for TradeStation will give you what you need in order to backtest, scan, and act-by-rule upon these key points of "impulse" and "flush" which engender so much emotion in traders who don't have a systematic way to deal with them.

What It Is

This package provides a trading strategy, a coordinated chart indicator (PaintBar), and a separate RadarScreen indicator that together provide the code you need to build your own testing and trading campaign based on WideBar market action..

What It Looks Like

Here's a picture showing wide bars and one approach to trading them on a 15m chart of the EMD:

Here is a view of a workspace with the RadarScreen indicator reporting wide bar status on a list of futures contracts:

Using the WideBar Suite with RadarScreen in this way lets you visually monitor any list of symbols for their wide bar status. If you set up lists of symbols for which you have previously run strategy tests, the RadarScreen indicator makes it easy to pick out symbols that are currently offering a wide bar opportunity of interest for trading (as determined by your tested historical performance).
