TRADESTATION: VOLUME PRICE CONFIRMATION
INDICATOR (VPCI)
Buff Dormeier’s article in this issue, “Between Price And
Volume,” describes calculation of the volume price confirmation
indicator (VPCI) and suggests a strategy for trading
with it.
The strategy consists of a moving average convergencedivergence
(MACD) signal, which is confirmed based on
readings of the VPCI. The article then compares the VPCI’s
value as a confirming indicator with on-balance volume
(OBV) and average directional index (ADX). To perform this
test, a strategy was created in EasyLanguage with “on-off”
input switches, allowing the trader to select the desired
confirming indicator.
Code for a VPCI indicator and strategy are given here. The
indicator plots the raw and smoothed VPCI. The strategy uses
MACD to generate trading signals, but it trades only if the
selected confirming indicator agrees.
To download the code, go to the Support Center at
TradeStation.com and search for the file “VPCI.ELD.”
TradeStation does not endorse or recommend any particular
strategy.
