//
// I started experimenting with Tradestations Radarscreen
//
// when it struck me that Amibroker have the same function "Exploration" but
// 100000$ much cheaper.
//
// The formula is quite simple just load it in to Amibroker
//
// and go to automatic analysis and push explore.
//
// The formula will scan multiple moving averages and draw conclusions
// regarding overall trend phase, strenght etc. Enjoy!

/*Use daily data! You could use data with
higher time resolution but then you have
to include a timeframe parameters
since 10 periods will become
10 minutes (if you have one Minute data)*/
