The bars

Oldest first. Four numbers per bar, bars split by semicolons: 2358 2328.8 2333.5 4120; 2334.5 2285.6 2301.4 5310. Tick volume works.
14 is the usual setting.

The money flow

The money flow index is 63, between 20 and 80.

The flow
63% of the money that traded over the last 14 bars came on bars whose typical price rose. The plain RSI of the closes over 14 bars is 47: the volume is heavier on the up bars than the price alone shows.
How it is read
Like the RSI, but each bar counts by its volume: 80 and above is read as overbought, 20 and below as oversold, and a price high the index does not confirm as a warning.
Read it with care
It can stay overbought for a long time in a strong trend. Tick volume from a broker is only a stand-in for real volume.

Simulated results are hypothetical and have limits: real trading has slippage, gaps, changing results and emotions. Trading leveraged products can lose money quickly, including all of it.

Price with the weight of volume

The money flow index multiplies each bar's typical price by its volume, splits the result into money that came on up bars and on down bars, and puts the share of the up money on a 0 to 100 scale over the last 14 bars. It moves like the RSI, but a quiet up bar counts for less than a busy down bar.

When the price makes a new high on thin volume, the index often stays lower than the RSI. Compare the two with the RSI calculator, see where the volume traded with the VWAP calculator and size the trade with the position size calculator.

Not advice. Arithmetic on the bars you type; an indicator describes the past bars, not the next one.
