Introduction to the Value Chart Deluxe Edition Indicator

Market valuations are often very dynamic. Normal price ranges would typically change from time to time. The Value Chart Indicator was developed to address this as it shows the current valuation of the market relative to recent price ranges.

What is the Value Chart Deluxe Edition Indicator?

The Value Chart Deluxe Edition Indicator or Value Chart Indicator is a momentum-based indicator which shows the normalized valuation of the market. It is an oscillator type of indicator which can be described as a detrended oscillator. This means that this oscillator is more likely to indicate a reversal if the market is starting to have an extremely high or low value compared to recent price movements.

This version of the Value Chart Indicator plots candlestick-like bars which oscillate around a midline which is zero within the range of -15 to 15. It plots lime green bars to indicate a bullish candle momentum and red bars to indicate a bearish candle momentum. This indicator also has several markers which are at -12, -10, -8, -6, 6, 8, 10, and 12. The area between -6 and 6 represents the normal range of the market. This area is shaded in green. The area above 8 represents the overbought market levels, while the area below -8 represents the oversold market levels.

How the Value Chart Deluxe Edition Indicator Works?

The Value Chart Deluxe Edition Indicator has an algorithm which converts and normalizes price movements within the range of -15 and 15. It uses values such as Market Value Added (MVA) and Average True Range (ATR) to arrive at the values needed to plot the bars. The formulas are as follows:

Open = (Open – MVA Typical) / (ATR / ATRn)

High = (High – MVA Typical) / (ATR / ATRn)

Low = (Low – MVA Typical) / (ATR / ATRn)

Close = (Close – MVA Typical) / (ATR / ATRn)

Typical Price = (High + Low + Close) / 3

The color of the bars is based on the open and close of price and should typically follow the candlesticks on the price chart.
