History
DeMark Indicators were developed by Tom DeMark in the 1970’s and are effective trend exhaustion algorithms that can be used on any time frame. They were originally intended for hedge funds looking to find time-frames that had a better risk / reward level to increase or liquidate their positions. If you intend on using any of these indicators on an intraday basis, it is always best to know what they are reading on daily charts as well as weekly and monthly charts. This will help inform your trading decisions, whether you're trading stocks, commodities, futures, or forex.

The "TD" prefix listed on all of the indicators on this page is obviously shorthand for "Tom DeMark" "Indicator Name" for example: TD Sequential is short for Tom DeMark Sequential.

Description
Each link below will contain a description and explanation of what the indicator attempts to measure and what values it uses to determine the output of the indicator.

Rules
In the "Rules" section you will often see equations similar to (x[0][3] < x[1][3]) given as part of the explanation. This is just my personal shorthand for quickly referencing a price bar's value at it open, high, low or close based on how the value might be stored in an array. The instantiation of the array would look like this:

• double x[bar][4];
• Where "bar" is the price bar that you are seeking information about, with x[0] being the current price bar and x[100] being the 100th previous price bar.
  
• x[0][0] = The current price bar's open.
• x[0][1] = The current price bar's high.
• x[0][2] = The current price bar's low.
• x[0][3] = The current price bar's close.
  

NinjaScript
NinjaScripts are provided for the NinjaTrader platform which is based on the C# programming language. This is a free charting platform that can also be used for automated trading with a variety of brokers and is quickly becoming the industry standard. Examples for programming your own electronic trading algorithms in C# based on automated quantitative analysis are provided for each DeMark Indicator.
