Hi all,


Does anyone know if the Constance Brown's Composite Index indicator has been ported to Sierra chart platform?

The formulae for all her indicators are in Appendix A of her book (2012 edition).

Happy Trading in 2013,
Jacques

I think this indicator is simple enough to create using native studies. If you post the formula, I'll create a study collection for you.

The formulae in Appendix A are coded for TradeStation and MetaStock platforms. The pages in pdf are attached.

Thank you very much.

Happy Trading,
Jacques

Here's a Study Collection of native studies that duplicates the Composite Index.

Put the attached in your Sierra Chart \Data folder, click on Analysis >> Composite Index-, choose No when asked "Clear existing studies on chart?'.

Good to hear you found the NT8 version, it's a rare one to come across outside of TradeStation or MetaStock circles. For others reading this, if you're still looking, check the NexusFi archives or reach out in the NT8Traders Hideout thread. This indicator’s logic is simple enough to recreate, but the smoothing and momentum adjustments do make it unique.
