Here's a concept I thought about whilst on holidays: Forward reference (shift backwards on charts) and center a Moving Average, then extend and project the last known MA direction into the future. This method gets around the no-plot in null (N/A) zone limitation in MetaStock, and can apply to any indicator or oscillator on charts or separate windows. |
