Disparity Index
MetaStock Indicator
Steve Nison refers to the his Disparity Index "as a percentage
display of the latest close to a chosen moving average". This can be
defined in MetaStock using the formula:
|
| ( ( C - Mov( C ,X ,? ) ) /
Mov( C ,X ,? ) ) * 100 |
|
** where X is the number of time periods and ? is the
calculation type of the moving average.
For example:
( ( C - Mov( C ,13,E ) ) / Mov( C ,13 ,E ) ) * 100
** where X = 13 time periods and ? = Exponential moving average.
For interpretation on the Disparity Index refer to Steve
Nison's book Beyond Candlesticks.
