3/10 Oscillator — 2.9%

[...] period period3 Slow (signal) line period Description Linda Bradford Raschke's 3/10 Oscillator is essentially the well-known Moving Average Convergence Divergence indicator. The only substantial difference is in the type of moving average used: the 3/10 Oscillator is constructed with simple moving averages while MACD uses exponential MAs.

TASC 2013-06 | The 1-2-3 Wave Count (Vervoort) — 1.4%

Traders' Tip text The IRSTS 1-2-3 rule, presented by author Sylvain Vervoort in June 2013 issue, originates from classic swing trading philosophy. With our simplified rendition of Vervoort’s quite complex system in our C# code, based on fixed percentage swings, we laid out a framework for detecting the 1-2-3 waves. The system marks each Wave on the chart, connecting them with colored lines, and enters on pullbacks in the direction of the primary trend (Wave 1). Its exits are simple profit target and stop loss based on optimizable percentages. [...]

Concentrating on the swing indicator during upward trends determined by a 3-pole 50-Period Gaussian (more responsive than an EMA), we used the 350 Alerts as a setup for both the entries and exits. An entry is triggered when price reaches the highest high of the previous 2 bars after an SMARSI(3) below 20, whereas the exit occurs at the close of the bar on which the low reaches the lowest low of the previous 2 bars. This trigger strategy often entered and exited a prospective trade 1 bar earlier than waiting for [...]
