Chaikin Money Flow
Like the popular Chaikin A/D Oscillator
developed by Marc Chaikin, the Chaikin Money Flow indicator is based on the
Accumulation/Distribution line. It is created by summing the values of the
Accumulation/Distribution Line for 21 periods and then dividing by a 21 period
sum of the volume.
The interpretation of indicator is based on the assumption that market
strength is usually accompanied by prices closing in the upper half of their
daily range with increasing volume. Likewise, market weakness is usually
accompanied by prices closing in the lower half of their daily range with
increasing volume.
The Chaikin Money Flow indicator provides excellent confirmation signals of
trendline and support/resistance breakouts. Also significant are a divergence
between the Chaikin Money Flow indicator and prices.
