These charts are only showing the arrows for ranging action (there are several modes), and things seem to be going ok. The way I see it, an indicator should be configerable so that you can specify if a market is ranging, trending or compressing, and the signals it gives adjust accordingly, for example I have Stormy set for trending on the GBP/USD and here is today's chart:


The final setting is for compressing markets, the problem with compressed markets are the direction of the breakout is something that is very hard to predict through price action, as a lot of them are news driven, but if you look at any of the above charts, you see the clouds darken (stormy .. dark clouds ... get it :)) when signs of a breakout is approaching, so while no direction is given just yet, I am progressing on that front also. At this stage I suspect that the direction of dark clouds area may be best predicted by the computer in your head than anything else.

So that's it, that's where I am at, I have had several questions on when I will release Stormy, at this stage I suspect the New Year may be when it has been back tested sufficiently and refined enough for release. Oh before I go, I'm sure some of you have notice the different colouring of the candles in the above charts, that is a seperate complimentary indicator I am working on called "Rain drops", more information on that later.

Happy trading!
