Total Power Indicator (TPI)

The Total Power Indicator (better known as TPI) is an instrument of technical analysis, which combines the indexes of three well-known indicators at once and gives the full information about the presence of a trend in the market, its type (bullish or bearish) and reports about the balance line, which is the difference between the trends on the concrete period of time. It is a non-standard instrument, as it can’t be found on the trading platform MetaTrader4. 

Trading with the help of the Total Power Indicator

As it was already mentioned above, this robot is based on three separate robots. In order to understand the essence of the total power indicator, it is important to know about the indicators it was built of:

  • The indicator of the strength of the bears, which is the part of another robot, the Ray of Elder;
  • The indicator of the strength of the bulls, which is the part of another robot, the Ray of Elder;
  • The moving average (period - 13), which is the standard tool of technical analysis, that can be found on any trading platform.

These three assistants together give great results in trading, making it an independent robot. It’s easy to download it for free on the website MTDownloads. After downloading, install the robot on the trading platform. It is advisable to use such platforms as MetaTrader4 or MetaTrader5, as using them you can install absolutely any trading robot. The installation and downloading will not take much time, but after the installation, you need to configure the Expert Tool and in order to set the parameters properly, you don’t need much special knowledge, as even a beginner in trading will cope with it. Before trading, you need to set only two basic parameters:

  • Look Back Period is the number of bars, which are analyzed on a time period in order to calculate the percentage (most often the value is 45);
  • Power Period is the difference between the trends (most often 10 is used).

These are the main points, which are important to fill in before the trading process begins, but you can also choose the color of the lines and their shape, as it is possible by default in the settings of any indicator.

According to the tools of technical analysis, which are the parts of the total power indicator, they are depicted on the graph by three lines of different colors:

  • The red line (bears) - displays the percentage of bearish bars on a certain timeframe;
  • The green line (bulls) - displays the percentage of bullish bars on a certain timeframe;
  • The blue line (general) - shows the overall strength of the trend, due to the difference between the first two indicators on the certain period of time.

Trading with this robot is very simple, as even a beginner in the world of trading can understand the specifics of its work, but if you still have some doubts, you should first try to use this tool on the demo account and when you feel that it suits you, start the real trading and get a stable profit with it.
