Anchored Momentum
MetaStock Custom Indicator

The four indicators in Rudy Stefenel’s article "Anchored Momentum" can be easily created in MetaStock. First, choose Indicator Builder from the Tools menu. If you have MetaStock 6.52 or higher enter the following formulas:

General Anchored Momentum w/ Exponential Smoothing

MomPer := Input("Momentum Periods",1,1000,10);
SmaPer := Input("Simple Moving Average Periods",1,1000,7);
EmaPer := Input("Exponential Moving Average Periods",1,1000,7);
100 * ((Mov(CLOSE, EMAPer, E) / Ref(Mov(CLOSE, SmaPer, S), ((SmaPer - 1)/2)
- MomPer)) - 1)
 
General Anchored Momentum

MomPer := Input("Momentum Periods",1,1000,10);
SmaPer := Input("Simple Moving Average Periods",1,1000,7);
100 * ((CLOSE / Ref(Mov(CLOSE, SmaPer, S), ((SmaPer - 1)/2) - MomPer)) - 1)
 
Most Anchored Momentum w/ Exponential Smoothing

MomPer := Input("Momentum Periods",1,1000,10);
SmaPer := Input("Simple Moving Average Periods",1,1000,7);
EmaPer := Input("Exponential Moving Average Periods",1,1000,7);
100 * ((Mov(CLOSE, EmaPer, E) / Mov(CLOSE, (2 * MomPer) + 1, S) ) - 1)
 
Most Anchored Momentum

MomPer := Input("Momentum Periods",1,1000,10);
SmaPer := Input("Moving Average Periods",1,1000,7);
100 * ((CLOSE / Mov(CLOSE, (2 * MomPer) + 1, S) ) - 1)
 

Drag any of the above indicators from the Indicator QuickList to the desired chart. MetaStock will prompt you to enter values for the specified parameters. If you have an earlier version of MetaStock, you will need to enter values in the following formulas instead of using the MomPer, SmaPer, and EmaPer variables.
