Product Description
TRADESTATION
The June 1997 issue of STOCKS & COMMODITIES discussed a tried-and-true technique known as TRIX in the article “Playing TRIX: The triple exponential smoothing oscillator.” The TRIX indicator and system code below for TradeStation includes alerts and signals based on both the crossing of the zero line and the crossing of the linear regression average.

Last month, the MetaStock Traders’ Tip covered creating a template and formulas to reproduce rainbow charts, which were introduced by Mel Widner in the same issue.
