This tutorial video teaches you how to program the Ease of Movement (EMV) indicator in Python.

The Ease of Movement indicator attempts to measure directional intensity in a security.

The purpose of this series is to teach mathematics within python. To do this, we will be working with a bunch of the more popular stock indicators used with technical analysis.

With most of the indicators, we will first discuss them, their purpose, then teach how to program them into python, then actually display them on a chart.

The basic charting application comes from a previous tutorial series, here: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQVvvaa0QuDcR-u9O8LyLR7URiKuW-XZq
