Z Score

StrategyQuantIndicators

Measures how many standard deviations a value is from its mean, identifying statistical extremes in price movement. Configure the applied price and period to create trading signals based on deviation thresholds.

The Z-score measures the currently analyzed value of selected data series relative to its mean, i.e., how many standard deviations away it is from it. The Z-score can be easily interpreted in this way:

If the Z-Score is 0, it means that the value of the data point is equal to the mean. If the Z-Score is 1.0, it means that the value is one standard deviation above the mean. If the Z-Score is -1.0, it means that the value is one standard deviation below the mean.

The indicator has one line:

1. Z Score

Z Score has two configurable parameters:

• Applied Price – Type of Price used for indicator calculation

• Period – refers to the number of periods on which the modified moving average line is based.

Indicator is implemented for: MT4/MT5/Tradestation/ Multicharts.
