The Force Index (FRC) is a technical indicator that measures the bulls' strength during every rise and the bear's strength during every fall. It connects the main elements of the market information: price trend, its drops and transaction volumes. This indicator may be used independently, however, it is better to smooth it with the help of the moving average. The best moments for opening or closing a position are easy to find using the short moving average. If the smoothing is made with the help of the long moving average (for example, 13-period), the index reveals trends changes.
