Class Method Details

.calculate(data, period: 20) ⇒ Array<CmfValue>

Calculates the chaikin money flow (CMF) for the data over the given period stockcharts.com/school/doku.php?id=chart_school:technical_indicators:chaikin_money_flow_cmf

Parameters:

  • data (Array) —

    Array of hashes with keys (:date_time, :high, :low, :close, :volume)

  • period (Integer) (defaults to: 20) —

    The given period to calculate the CMF

Returns:

  • (Array<CmfValue>) —

    An array of CmfValue instances
