Formula:

Money Flow = (Typical Price) x (Volume)

Buy / Sell Signals

Buy signals are generated when the MFI line crosses below the threshold line and then “re-enters” the center of the channel. This is an indication that the market is exiting the oversold region and a bullish trend is to ensue.

A sell signal is generated when the MFI line crosses above the threshold line and then “re-enters” the center channel. This is an indication that the market is exiting the overbought region and a bearish trend is probable.
