Hi!

Could you tell me how to get the 2 day EMA of this indicator, exactly as it is recommended by Dr. Elder?

Thanks

Mike

Hello Ben,
Was the FastMAtype and the SlowMAtype suppose to have a drop down box to choose SMA, EMA, HMA?
Mine does not, or do we just type it in? or does it stay on SMA?

Thanks

Thanks for download, how often is the force index used in automated trades? I see it does use volume so entering when it makes a spike would make a trade quick and profitable, in theory.

Whats the difference between elder force index and force index?

I don't think Ninja has a standard version of this indicator...I don't see one listed in my NT7.0.1000.2 platform.

Can anyone verify this?

it is on the above link....is this similar to yours?:confused:

[sbgtrading]

Yes...that ForceIndex is similar to mine...it's the industry standard calculation. My apologies for not understanding what you meant by "standard" NT indicator. My understanding of that term is that a "standard indicator" is an indicator that comes with every NT installation, automatically. Hence, the confusion.

Is this a Ninja 7 or 6.5 file?
Thanks

I'm able to use Force Index under NT 7.

[Omarandkaren]

Thanks for the update.

[Omarandkaren]

I was unable to import the Force Index indicator into my NT 7.
Are there any special tricks?

What errors are you getting attempting to import the file?

[Omarandkaren]

I was trying File, Utilities, Import Ninja Script
That looked like the only thing that would facilitate imputting.
Thank you for your help.

Yes, that would be the correct approach for a zip file. Can you try the same process with the file attached?

[Omarandkaren]

Thanks, I thought it would be something simple.
I was unzipping the folder first.
Thanks for your help.
