The Foundation by Southwind v-13.00 Int AFL Code

1 min read

Here is an interesting and colourful AFL code which i found it over the web coded by Mr.Southwind(Dont know who he was… But simply the AFL code reads so).

Southwind AFL Code for Nifty
Southwind AFL Code for Nifty

 
When i explored the AFL code it contains the Heiken Ashi candle and as usual ATR trailing stop loss line along with the Heiken Ashi candle. And more technical indications like Support-Resistance Pivot Basic Stochastic ,RSI ,MACD and few more technical interpretations on the left side of the charting space. At a first time giving a impression that the trading system is much complicated. But it all just a combo Package of simple trading interpretations. Moreover I hadn’t explored much with this indicator. If you have free time then just go through the indicator. The color of the Heiken Ashi candle shows blue color for the uptrend and yellow for the sideways trend and the red color to indicate the downtrend. The Colored Candles of  nifty daily chart is shown above. Just click on the picture to have  a bigger view

  1. Dear Sir,

    I have downloaded this Southwind AFL Code for Nifty from your website but
    it gives some syntax error, i dont know how to rectify it.

    1. Hi for the Plugin need to work you need to simply close the amibroker and need to open it again. May be you might be paste those plugin’s while the amibroker is open. Closing and reopening Ami would probably solve this problem.Also make sure that you had saved all those files in appropriate folders especially the dll plugins and include file

  6. Dear Rajendran,

    Do you have code for incorporating in Meta stock?
    if not so can i use any otherway?

    Regards

    Balan

      1. If you are using Windows 7 machine then after placing the dll file in the plugins folder. Right click on your amibroker and click on Run as administrator this will enable any new plugin if recently added.

  9. Sir,

    I have downloaded the Southwind AFL Code for Nifty, from the link you have provided. The downloaded file is in explorer format. When I click it to extract, its not opening. kindly provide instructions on how to download that properly

    Three kudos to u,i have followed exactly as per ur instructions, it is working very fine.Please let me know as to how we can plot buy/sell signals in this system,whether a seperate afl as in nma signals has to be loaded,already it is fully loaded with so many indicators,which cannot be easily read/understood.Also inform whether real time data from yahoo can be fed to this system.U have informed that yahoo format is in csv format,then how to convert that to accommodate to amibroker 5.20 version.

  19. Hi Rajandran,

    Couple of questions.

    1. Where did you get Ami 5.25 ver? The latest available Ami is only 5.20.

    2. I have Ami 5.20 and it gives me lots of syntax error. Copied plugins into plugin folder, T3_Include afl into ‘include’ folder, and the main afl in ‘custom’ folder.

    Any solution?

  24. many thanks on this formula. i have tried downloading having same errors thanks to you.
    my questions are:
    1 Full meaning of Phaze(LTPT)
    2 Signal (MAB)(TMA)(ZLW) & when i run exploration i see MAP & MAK.

  25. Which one is the “The Foundation v13.00.afl”? the WinRar file?? I just copied the winrar file into the C:\Program Files\AmiBroker\Formulas\Custom . But it was syntax error. I need some help. I’m using Amibroker version 5.30.

  27. Hello,

    I tried using it it was working fine for like 7 days but i had to reformat my machien i relaoded amibroker and all the formulas and did everything in order but it gives me syntax error no 29 am using amibroker 5.29 tried on 5.2 as well does not work.

  28. Hello,

    I have downloaded the afl and its working but i am not able to understand how to use this afl plz help me and can send me the instructions on how to use.

  29. Hi Raj,

    What’s d success ratio of this formula..??

    Have you backtested it OR tested LIVE..??

    Please share your experience.

    Many Thanks.

    1. @Abishek: Backtesting of Southwind is same as that of NMA Buy/Sell Indicator. If you hadnt backtested for NMA then i will provide the results here

  30. Hi Raj,

    I’ve NMA as well. Was just curious to know about Southwind formula.

    There are so many indicators on this screen.

    If u take 2day’s example 2nd Aug – in morning Gap up opening, Key Reversal indicator said Reverse UP everytime Nifty goes above 5413, But at d same time other indicators like T3, ZLW & TMA said Bearish.

    But LTPT was Bullish & MAB was a Buy.

    Now Signal (IBuy) said Buy Warning when Nifty went above 5425.

    So what I wanna know — is there any sequence to follow these indicators.

    DO you have any literature OR Rules to use this method.?

    Many Thanks.

    1. @Abishek – Adding too much indicators and filters wont reduce noise… infact it introduce more noise in the system.
      Because most of the indicators are not synchorous to each other. A Buy in one system is still a sell in different system
      even a buy in one timeframe may be still a sell in another timeframe(it may be higer or lower).

      Its recommended to use few indicators alone rather using this puppet!

  31. Thanks for replying.

    Ya that true…

    Too many different indicators only confuses d mind & at d end chances are more of loosing.

    One should stick to what he / she believes in.

    I still find NMA a better option to rely on.

    What you say..?

  36. i use 5.30 trial then can i use 5.30 crack after uninstalling trial one and any problem latter can i return to ami trial.

    there is another foundation namely foundation radar by sultanji with a extra macd indicater.

  38. Dear Sir,
    There is a Radar also for this South Wind AFL.
    It would be great if you post it here.
    Best regards

  40. Hi
    I have install this indicator, but didn’t see The Foundation v13.00.afl to copy in fomulas.

    You could share this code to me

    Tks a lot

  41. i am using amibroker 5.30 version can you tell me how can i use this afl in forex is this possible please tell me how to use it in amibroker i m using demo version of amibroker 5.30

  42. Hi Samir,

    Rajandran has given the instruction clearly in the post.
    Where people may make mistake is in not doing:

    2)Copy JurikLib.dll and kpami.dll and paste it in your Amibroker Plugin folder which is by default C:Program FilesAmiBrokerPlugins

    3)Copy T3_include.afl to the AFL formula-include folder which is by default C:Program FilesAmiBrokerFormulasInclude

    If you properly adopt this it will work.
    The reason is, part of the code is not in the AFL, but in the plugin DLL.

    1. Where to get those plugins? I have downloaded the link available on this page but it only the Southwind AFL file, none the files for plugins. So, where to get those files?

  43. Hey, I am a bit confused with certain indicator. I can understand some of the indicator but I have no idea about some of them. Can anybody help with these indicators?

    1. why the market trend dividend into two parts? i.e. up|up or up|down, what does each of the part signifies?

    2.what is the function of the following signals? (I just need a brief idea, so that I can search for more resources in the internet)
    -signal(lbuy)-> i guess its a buy signal, but why ‘lbuy’
    -Singal (T3)-> i guess this signal is for T+3 trading
    -Singal (ZLW), singal (Mab), signal (TMA), signal (TM), signal (p5/150) and signal (B)-> no idea about these signal….can anyone help me with a brief explanation of this signals?

    3. there is two indicator for accumulator phase. One is in the volume segment and another one is under p/v breakout. sometimes its gets confusing. any idea why there is two? i also want to know about key reversal, phaze(LTPT) and 52 WHL.

    I know i have asked for lot of things…but anybody have some free time please help me out….

    thx

    rahman

  44. Hi Rahman,
    Wow, Your question is longer than the brief answer you have asked for 😀

    Foundation, original has morphed now with additions and alterations.
    It has an amount of input from our Karthik Marar codes in it.
    the Mab is his Mabiutus system. His VPA is also in this.
    ZLW is ZeroLag Williams,

    The Up|Up, is a deciphering from 2 different parameters, one with comparative to another standard, and the second in comparision to regression extremes.

    Each of the signal goes to compared results of Oscillator and Indicator values.

    T3 is in DLL, so actual code not known.
    In general SouthWind Foundation and Radar are encyclopedic realtime interpretation of market parameters.
    TMA is TEMA derivative, tripleEMA,
    TM is a T3 derivative, it would be a finetuned MA,
    LTPT, longterm pricetrend,
    52whl is 52week High Low.
    p5/15 is swing hi lo comparision with c,

    |Buy ?? I could not understand what you ask,
    but mostly i assume the “|” a separator, and it is a “Buy”

    This is as brief as I can tell.
    And, Rajandran enjoys bringing all this goodies, fretting them out and putting them here.

  45. The original Foundation Trading System was developed by “Southwind” who is a great coder and TA of Bangladesh. He taught lots of people on TA in BAngladesh (including myself)and one of the pioneers. It took him over an year to formulate everything. He is now working on new projects. Unfortunately one “Zultan” put his name in the afl codes and published it as Sultanji Foundation (which is cheating). If he wanted to share he should have mentioned the original developer’s name.

  46. This is one of the greatest AFL I have ever come across developed by one of geniuses of Bangladesh. If I am not mistaken- his name is Mr.Zaman ( khaleqe-uz-zaman). I had the opportunity to interact with him in facebook…i congratulate and wish him all the best. I take the opportunity to request him to present us some more unique AFL.
    rgds,

    2)Copy JurikLib.dll and kpami.dll and paste it in your Amibroker Plugin folder which is by default C:\Program Files\AmiBroker\Plugins

  54. Hi do u have a TTM AFL with Bollinger band and Keltner band combined in one chart? Thanks for ur help…

  58. Hi Rajandra,

    I successfully loaded the indicator. It’s very nice. I’m only on the trial version of Amibroker. I just started the trial today. Who do you recommend for a live data feed provider for intraday trading? I need a live feed for the US stock market. Can the bar candle be changed for this indicator or does it need to stay the Heiken Ashi Candle. Where in Amibroker can the candle be changed just to see.

    Thanks,

    Mike Lee

    1. Hi,

      You can try with Esignal or with iqfeed. However if you have trading accounts with Interactive brokers then you can get free data feed from them.
