public static SeriesCollection TypicalPrice( SeriesCollection sc ) |
Parameters
- sc
- A collection of series objects. For example, to evaluate this indicator for two series you will need to pass a series collection containing this two series.
The typical price is just the arithmetic average of the high, low and closing
price for the trading period considered. Generally speaking the period considered
will be a single trading day, however the typical price is equally applicable to
other time spans and hence the period considered could be (for example) a month
or year.
Applications
The Typical Price is often used in place of the closing price in the development of trading systems in which either another intra-day system is used from the intra-period timing of trades, or when the trading party is given discretion on intra-period trading decisions.
