Calculation:
The calculation for Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) has three distinct steps, for this example we will use a 21 Period CMF:
1. Find the Money Flow Multiplier
[(Close - Low) - (High - Close)] /(High - Low) = Money Flow Multiplier
2. Calculate Money Flow Volume
Money Flow Multiplier x Volume for the Period = Money Flow Volume
3. Calculate The CMF
Money Flow Volume / Volume = CMF for the Period
To add and configure the indicator, you must open the settings window.
