Extrapolator MetaTrader 4 Forex Indicator
is created on a few methods that can be chosen by the Method input variable:
Method 1: Fourier’s extrapolation; the frequencies are calculated using the Quinn-Fernandes Algorithm
Method 2: Auto correlation Method
Method 3: Weighted Burg Method
Method 4: Burg Method with Helme-Nikias weighting function
Method 5: Itakura-Saito (geometric) method
Method 6: Modified covariance method
Methods 2-6 are the methods of linear prediction. The linear prediction is created on finding the future costs as the linear functions of the past values. Presume 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[n] is calculated as
x[n] = -Sum(a[i]*x[n-i], i=1..p)
where a[i=1..p] – coefficients of the model, p – 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. Of course, 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 why 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)
The indicator shows two lines: the blue line draws the prices of the model on the training bars, the red line draws the predicted future prices.
Examples:
Method 1 (the extrapolation of Fourier series)
Method 3 (Burg’s method)
Method 6 (Modified Covariance Method)
