EVZ Indicator

The NNFX Algo Tester includes in the software an NNFX EVZ indicator, which can be used as an integral part of your algorithm. This indicator uses the historical values of the CBOE Euro currency volatility (EVZ) along with an SMA to indicate whether the algorithm is in the trade zone (trades allowed) or in the no-trade zone (trades not allowed).

If you prefer to use an indicator in this slot as an additional Volume or C2, you can do so using one of the Custom Indicators options.

Although the NNFX EVZ uses an SMA by default to create a signal, this is not mandatory. You can use any of the Custom options to adapt the NNFX EVZ differently. For example, you could use the ONE LEVEL CROSS option if you wanted to use a fixed level as a trade/no-trade value.

Historical EVZ data can be updated manually using the Login Panel. You can also select automatic EVZ updates.

You can download the included EVZ indicator or consult the Custom default parameters below.
