Consensus of Five signal indicator. The indicator is based on the readings of five indicators: ADX, DMI, CCI, MACD and Stochastic.

DMI, CCI, MACD and Stochastic indicator directions (or only of some of them) should match for generating a direction signal, while the value of ADX indicator is used as a trend filter (either a trend is present or not) and affects simultaneously all four indicators DMI, CCI, MACD and Stochastic (or only some of them). If indicators display direction, while ADX is located in a non-trend area, direction signals are not generated.

The indicator has twenty-one input parameters:

  • Use ADX as trend filter - use ADX as a trend filter (Yes/No)

  • Use DMI - use DMI (Yes/No)

  • Use CCI - use CCI (Yes/No)

  • Use MACD - use MACD (Yes/No)

  • Use Stochastic - use Stochastic (Yes/No)

  • ADX period - ADX calculation period

  • ADX entry level - ADX position entry level

  • ADX exit level - ADX position exit level

  • DMI period - DMI calculation period

  • CCI period - CCI calculation period

  • CCI Buy level - CCI Buy position entry level

  • CCI Sell level - CCI Sell position entry level

  • MACD fast EMA period - fast EMA MACD calculation period

  • MACD slow EMA period - slow EMA MACD calculation period

  • MACD Buy level - MACD Buy position entry level

  • MACD Sell level - MACD Sell position entry level

  • Stochastic %K period - K Stochastic line calculation period

  • Stochastic %D period - D Stochastic line calculation period

  • Stochastic slowing - Stochastic slowing period

  • Stochastic overbought - Stochastic overbought level

  • Stochastic oversold - Stochastic oversold level

MACD signal line calculation period is 1, Stochastic price field is Low/High
