12 Other Indicator Packages

The indicators and averages from the following packages can be selected in Chart under the View Style dialog (see View Style).

Genius Trader is written in Perl and to install you only need to have its code somewhere in your Perl module path (PERL5LIB etc).

TA-Lib has a Perl interface generated by Swig. As of version 0.5 the interface is statically linked, so once compiled you only need to ensure the generated .pm and .so files are in your Perl module path.

Various indicators and averages are available both natively in Chart and in GT and/or TA-Lib too. Sometimes there’s subtle differences in the calculations near the start of data, but generally it’s just “more than one way to do it”.
