Extrapolator

وصف:

The indicator is based on several methods that can be chosen by the Method input variable:

طريقة 1: Fourier's extrapolation; the frequencies are calculated using the Quinn-Fernandes Algorithm

طريقة 2: Autocorrelation Method

طريقة 3: Weighted Burg Method

طريقة 4: Burg Method with Helme-Nikias weighting function

طريقة 5: Itakura-Saito (geometric) طريقة

طريقة 6: Modified covariance method

Methods 2-6 are the methods of linear prediction. The linear prediction is based on finding the future values as the linear functions of the past values. Assume that we have a number of prices x[0]..x[n-1] where the higher index is compliant with the recent price. The prediction of the future price x[ن] is calculated as

x[ن] = -Sum(أ[أنا]*x[n-i], i=1..p)

where a[i=1..p] - coefficients of the model, ص - order of the model. The listed methods 2-6 find the coefficients a[] by decreasing the mean-root-square error on the training last n-p bars. بالطبع, we can reach the zero error of prediction if we directly solve the set of equations mentioned above with n=2*p by the Levinson-Durbin method. Such method of prediction is called Prony Method. Its disadvantage is the instability during the prediction of the future values of the series. That's way this method has not been included.

The other input parameters are:

LastBar - the number of the last bar in the past data

PastBars - the number of past bars used for the prediction of the future values

LPOrder - the order of the linear model as a fraction from the number of the past bars (0..1)

FutBars - the number of future bars in the prediction

HarmNo - the maximum number of frequencies for the Method 1 (0 means all frequencies)

FreqTOL - the imprecision of the frequeincies calculation for the Method 1 (if it is >0.001 it can't converge)

BurgWin - the number of the weighting function for the Method 2 (0=Rectangular 1=Hamming 2=Parabolic)

يرسم المؤشر خطين: the blue line shows the prices of the model on the training bars, the red line shows the predicted future prices.
