In September 1993 edition of the 'Stock & Commodities' magazine, Tushar Chande introduced the Chande's Trendscore indicator. This indicator main role is to determine the direction and strength of the market trend. To do so, it compares the close price to previous close prices over a period of 20 bars. The result is an indicator that moves between an extreme high reading of +10 to an extreme low reading of -10.
A Chande's Trendscore value of +10 indicates that a strong uptrend is starting, while a Chande's Trendscore value of -10 indicates that a strong downtrend is starting. Between these extreme values, a Chande's Trendscore value above zero is bullish (the strength varies with the value, the higher the value the stronger the bullish trend), a Chande's Trendscore value below zero is bearish (the strength also varies with the value, the lower the value the stronger the bearish trend)
The Chande's Trendscore function name is 'chande_trendscore'. It has no parameters and it can be plotted on a chart using the following QuantShare formula:
Plot(chande_trendscore(), 'Chande Trendscore', colorRed|36|colorRed|255|0, chartLine, styleOwnScale);
Trading financial instruments, including foreign exchange on margin, carries a high level of risk and is not suitable for all investors. The high degree of leverage can work against you as well as for you. Before deciding to invest in financial instruments or foreign exchange you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience, and risk appetite. The possibility exists that you could sustain a loss of some or all of your initial investment and therefore you should not invest money that you cannot afford to lose. You should be aware of all the risks associated with trading and seek advice from an independent financial advisor if you have any doubts.
