AD
Accumulation/Distribution Line (AD) Developed by Marc Chaikin, the Accumulation Distribution Line is a volume-based indicator designed to measure the cumulative flow of money into and out of a security. Chaikin originally referred to the indicator as the Cumulative Money Flow Line. As with cumulative indicators, the Accumulation Distribution Line is a running total of each period's Money Flow Volume. First, a multiplier is calculated based on the relationship of the close to the high-low range. Second, the Money Flow Multiplier is multiplied by the period's volume to come up with a Money Flow Volume. A running total of the Money Flow Volume forms the Accumulation Distribution Line. This indicator is usually plotted to its own chart.

STOCHRSI
The Stochastic-RSI (STOCHRSI) is essentially an indicator of an indicator. The Stochastic RSI is an oscillator that calculates a value between 0 and 1 which is then plotted as a line. This indicator is primarily used for identifying overbought and oversold conditions. This indicator is usually plotted on its own chart.
STOCHRSI(prices, rsiPeriod, fastK, fastD, maType)
Returns the STOCHRSI result.
Return Type: Dynamic
T3

Return Type: ListNumbers
TRANGE
The True Range (TRANGE) developed by J. Welles Wilder, is a technical analysis volatility indicator. The indicator does not provide an indication of price trend, simply the degree of price volatility. This indicator is usually plotted on its own chart.
TRANGE(high, low, close)
Returns the TRANGE result.
Return Type: ListNumbers
TRIMA
The Triangular Moving Average (TRIMA) is similar to other moving averages in that it shows the average (or mean) price over a specified number of data points (usually a number of price bars). However, the triangular moving average differs in that it is double smoothed — which also means it is averaged twice. This indicator is usually plotted on the price chart.
TRIMA(prices, period)
Returns the TRIMA result.
Return Type: ListNumbers
TRIX
TRIX is a momentum oscillator that displays the percent rate of change of a triple exponentially smoothed moving average. This indicator is usually plotted on its own chart.
TRIX(prices, period)
Returns the TRIX result.
Return Type: ListNumbers
TSF
Time Series Forecast (TSF) is a linear regression calculation that plots each bar’s current regression value using the least square fit method. This indicator is sometimes referred to as a moving linear regression similar to a moving average. For example, the TSF value that covers 10 days will have the same value as a 10-day Time Series Forecast. This differs slightly from the Linear Regression indicator in that the Linear Regression indicator does not add the slope to the ending value of the regression line. This indicator is usually plotted on the price chart.
TSF(prices, period)
Returns the TSF result.
Return Type: ListNumbers
TSI
The True Strength Index (TSI) is a momentum oscillator based on a double smoothing of price changes.
TSI(prices, periodA, periodB)
Returns the TSI result.
Return Type: ListNumbers
TYPPRICE
Typical Price (TYPPRICE) is simply an average of asset's price. The Median Price (MEDPRICE) and Weighted Close Price (WCLPRICE) are similar indicators. The Typical Price indicator provides a simple, single-line plot of the asset's average price.
TYPPRICE(high, low, close)
Returns the TYPPRICE result.
Return Type: ListNumbers
UDRSI
The UpDown RSI (UDRSI) is an RSI Based Indicator that uses an alternative formula to calculate the momentum oscillator. This Indicator works exactly like RSI but instead of determining this from the difference in price, it is calculated by what is called trend stepping. Trend stepping basically measures the closing price of a range of candles and when the price of one candle is lower than the next, it is calculated as 1 price step up. Because of this alternative calculation of Relative Strength Index, Up Down RSI produces some unique Trade Signals.
UDRSI(prices, period)
Returns the UDRSI result.
Return Type: ListNumbers
ULTOSC
The Ultimate Oscillator (ULTOSC), developed by Larry Williams, is a momentum oscillator designed to capture momentum across three different timeframes. The multiple timeframe objective seeks to avoid the pitfalls of other oscillators. Many momentum oscillators surge at the beginning of a strong advance, only to form a bearish divergence as the advance continues. This is because they are stuck with one timeframe. The Ultimate Oscillator attempts to correct this fault by incorporating longer timeframes into the basic formula. Williams identified a buy signal a based on a bullish divergence and a sell signal based on a bearish divergence.
ULTOSC(high, low, close, periodA, periodB, periodC)
Returns the ULTOSC result.
Return Type: ListNumbers
VAR
Variance (VAR), developed by Dr. Rene Koch, is the variance ratio indicator that measures the degree of mean reversion or trendiness in a time series. It is an easy and fast way to detect whether a price series is trending, mean reverting or following a random walk.
VAR(prices, period, deviation)
Returns the VAR result.
Return Type: ListNumbers
WCLPRICE
Weighted Close Price (WCLPRICE) is simply an average of an asset's price. It gets its name from the fact that extra weight is given to the closing price. The Median Price (MEDPRICE) and Typical Price (TYPPRICE) are similar indicators.
WCLPRICE(high, low, close)
Returns the WCLPRICE result.
Return Type: ListNumbers
WILLR
Williams %R (WILLR), also known as the Williams Percent Range, is a type of momentum indicator that moves between 0 and -100 and measures overbought and oversold levels. The Williams %R may be used to find entry and exit points in the market. This indicator is usually plotted on its own chart.
WILLR(high, low, close, period)
Returns the WILLR result.
Return Type: ListNumbers
WiMA
Wilder Moving Average (WiMA), also called Wilder's Smoothed Moving Average, is similar to the Exponential Moving Average. Compared to other moving averages, Wilders MA responds more slowly to price changes, where an n-period Wilder MA gives similar values to a 2n- period EMA. For example, a 14-period EMA has almost the same values as a 7-period Wilder MA.
WiMA(prices, period)
Returns the WiMA result.
Return Type: ListNumbers
WMA
The Weighted Moving Average (WMA) puts more weight on recent data and less on past data. This is done by multiplying each bar's price by a weighting factor. Because of its unique calculation, WMA will follow prices more closely than a corresponding Simple Moving Average.
WMA(prices, period)
Returns the WMA result.
Return Type: ListNumbers
WWS
Welles Wilder's Smoothing (WWS), developed by J. Welles Wilder, Jr. and is part of the Wilder's RSI indicator implementation. This indicator smoothes price movements to help you identify and spot bullish and bearish trends. This indicator is usually plotted on the price chart.
WWS(prices, period)
Returns the WWS result.
Return Type: ListNumbers
ZLEMA
The Zero-Lag Exponential Moving Average (ZLEMA), developed by John Ehlers and Ric Way. As is the case with the double exponential moving average (DEMA) and the triple exponential moving average (TEMA) and as indicated by the name, the aim is to eliminate the inherent lag associated to all trend following indicators which average a price over time. The idea is do a regular exponential moving average (EMA) calculation but on a de-lagged data instead of doing it on the regular data. Data is de-lagged by removing the data from "lag" days ago thus removing (or attempting to) the cumulative effect of the moving average.
ZLEMA(prices, period)
Returns the ZLEMA result.
Return Type: ListNumbers
ZLMA
The Zero Lag Moving Average (ZLMA) is the same as ZLEMA, but opens up the possibility to change the type of the moving average. The idea is do a regular moving average (MA) calculation but on a de-lagged data instead of doing it on the regular data. Data is de-lagged by removing the data from "lag" days ago thus removing (or attempting to) the cumulative effect of the moving average.
ZLMA(prices, period, [ maType ], [ maPeriod1 ], [ maPeriod2 ])
Returns the ZLMA result in an array.
Return Type: Dynamic
