Syntax
nvi = negvolidx(closep, tvolume, initnvi) nvi = negvolidx([closep tvolume], initnvi) nvits = negvolidx(tsobj) nvits = negvolidx(tsobj, initnvi, ParameterName, ParameterValue, ...)
Arguments
closep |
Closing price (vector) |
tvolume |
Volume traded (vector) |
initnvi |
(Optional) Initial value for negative volume index (Default = 100). |
tsobj |
Financial time series object |
Description
nvi = negvolidx(closep, tvolume, initnvi)
calculates the negative volume index from a set of stock closing prices (closep
) and volume traded (tvolume
) data. nvi
is a vector representing the negative volume index. If initnvi
is specified, negvolidx
uses that value instead of the default (100).
nvi = negvolidx([closep tvolume], initnvi)
accepts a two-column matrix, the first column representing the closing prices (closep
) and the second representing the volume traded (tvolume
). If initnvi
is specified, negvolidx
uses that value instead of the default (100).
nvits = negvolidx(tsobj)
calculates the negative volume index from the financial time series object tsobj
. The object must contain, at least, the series Close
and Volume
. The nvits
output is a financial time series object with dates similar to tsobj and a data series named NVI
. The initial value for the negative volume index is arbitrarily set to 100.
nvits = negvolidx(tsobj, initnvi, ParameterName, ParameterValue,
...)
accepts parameter name/ parameter value pairs as input. These pairs specify the name(s) for the required data series if it is different from the expected default name(s). Valid parameter names are
Parameter values are the strings that represent the valid parameter names.
Examples
Compute the negative volume index for Disney stock and plot the results:
load disney.mat dis_NegVol = negvolidx(dis) plot(dis_NegVol) title('Negative Volume Index for Disney')
