Stochastic Levels on Chart [MisterMoTA]The values of the Stochastic Levels on Chart indicator are calculated using Reverse Engineering calculations starting from default Stochastic formula : 100 * (close - lowest(low, length)) / (highest(high, length) - lowest(low, length)).
I added options for users to define the Extreme Overbought and Oversold values, also simple Oversold and Overbought values of the stochastic, default Extreme Overbought at 100, Extreme Oversold at 0, the 20 for Oversold and 80 as Overbought, plus the middle stochastic level = 50.
The script has included a color coded 20 SMA that will turn red when the 20 SMA is falling and green when it is rising, also there are bollinger bands using 2 standard deviation plus an extra top and bottom bollinger bands with a 2.5 standard deviation.
The users can use Stochastic Levels on Chart along with a simple Stochastic or a Stochastic Rsi indicator, when the price on chart touching extreme levels and Stochastic or Stochastic Rsi K line crossing above or bellow D line users can see on chart the levels where price need to close for getting stochastic overbought or oversold.
In the demo chart we can see at daily stochastic crossed down and the price crossed down all the levels displayed on chart, and same before stochastic was crossing up from oversold and price crossed up the stochastic levels displayed on chart.
In strong bullish moves the Extreme level 100 of the stochastic will be pushed higher, same in a strong bearish move the Extreme Oversold 0 level will be pushed lower, so users need to wait for confirmation of a crossover between K and D lines of stochastic that will signalize a pullback or a reverse of the trend.
For better results you will need to add a dmi or an adx or other indicator that will show you trend strength.
If you have any questions or suggestions to improve the script please send me a PM.
Stochastic Oscillator
F.B_Stochastic Trend HarmonizerThe "F.B_Stochastic Trend Harmonizer" has been developed to provide insights into market trends. It combines stochastic oscillations with moving averages. Stochastic oscillators are used to measure market fluctuations, while moving averages serve to smooth these fluctuations and identify trends. By linking these elements, the indicator aims to offer an enhanced representation of market dynamics and potential trend reversals.
You can choose various types of moving averages such as SMA, EMA, or WMA and control the sensitivity of the lines by adjusting the smoothing factors. The fast line displays harmonized stochastic values, while the slow line is smoothed by a moving average.
The "Fast Line 2" marks individual candles for better visibility. It is recommended to combine this indicator with other analysis tools to make trading decisions.
If the "Fast Line" is greater than the "Slow Line MA," it indicates an uptrend. Conversely, if the "Fast Line" is smaller than the "Slow Line MA," it signals a downtrend.

## Settings
### Display
**Timeframe**
The screener displays the values according to the selected timeframe. The default timeframe is "Chart". For example, if the timeframe is set to "15m" here, the screener will show the RSI and stochastic values for the 15-minute chart.
** Theme **
This setting is for changing the theme of the screener. You can set the theme to "Automatic", "Dark", or "Light", with "Automatic" being the default value. When the "Automatic" theme is selected, the screener appearance will also be automatically updated when you enable or disable dark mode from the TradingView settings.
** Position **
This option is for setting the position of the table on the chart. The default setting is "middle right". The available options are (top, middle, bottom)-(left, center, right).
** Sort By **
This option is for changing the sorting order of the table. The default setting is "RSI Descending". The available options are (Symbol, RSI, Stoch)-(Ascending, Descending).
It is important to note that the overbought and oversold coloring of the symbols may also change when the sorting order is changed. If RSI is selected as the sorting order, the symbols will be colored according to the overbought and oversold threshold values specified for RSI. Similarly, if Stoch is selected as the sorting order, the symbols will be colored according to the overbought and oversold threshold values specified for Stoch.
From this perspective, you can also think of the sorting order as a change in the main indicator.
### RSI / Stochastic
This area is for selecting the parameters of the RSI and stochastic indicators. You can adjust the values for "length", "overbought", and "oversold" for both indicators according to your needs. The screener will perform all RSI and stochastic calculations according to these settings. All coloring in the table will also be according to the overbought and oversold values in these settings.
### Symbols
The symbols to be tracked in the table are selected from here. Up to 16 symbols can be selected from here. Since the symbol in the chart is automatically added to the table, there will always be at least 1 symbol in the table. Note that the symbol in the chart is shown in the table with "(C)". For example, if SPX is open in the chart, it is shown as SPX(C) in the table.
## Alerts
The screener is capable of notifying you with an alarm if multiple symbols are overbought or oversold according to the values you specify along with the desired timeframe. This way, you can instantly learn if multiple symbols are overbought or oversold with one alarm, saving you time.
Doda StochasticThe Doda Stochastic Indicator is an oscillator designed to identify primary trends in asset price movements, operating on a scale from 0 to 100. It offers potential buying signals when it fluctuates between 0 and 20, and potential selling signals when it trends between 80 and 100. To reinforce the reliability of these signals, traders often complement them with price action indicators.
The indicator aims to display a modified version of the Stochastic Oscillator, highlighting filtered stochastic values along with related signals.
Traders often use Stochastic indicators to identify potential reversal points or overbought/oversold conditions in the market. The modified version might aim to reduce noise or improve signals compared to the standard Stochastic oscillator. Adjusting the input parameters can alter the sensitivity of the indicator to market movements.
It can also be used to identify trend by considering Doda Stochatic's Moving Average crossing the midline level. If it is above it is uptrend and if below midline then it is downtrend. It does not repaint. It is a lagging indicator because it heavily depends on Moving Averages.
What makes the Doda Stochastic Indicator unique is its attempt to eliminate false or misleading signals commonly found in standard stochastic tools. Instead of relying solely on the 20 and 80 markings for overbought and oversold conditions, it uses the crossing of the green and red lines within these segments to identify signals. However, fully grasping its functionality is pivotal to maximising its utility.
The indicator strategically analyses price movements by scrutinising key price levels, market momentum, and unexpected shifts in trends. By default, it operates with a bar count of 2000 and a PDS value of 13.0, parameters that have undergone extensive testing. It's important to note that tweaking these settings might not always be necessary, as they are well-calibrated.
How to Use the Doda Stochastic Indicator:
Setting up the Indicator:
- Begin incorporating the Doda Stochastic Indicator into your trading strategy once you're confident in identifying significant support and resistance levels.
Strategy with Doda Stochastic:
- Buy Signal Criteria:
- Asset displaying an upward trend.
- Green line crossing above the red line on the indicator.
- Confirm entry with bullish candlestick patterns.
- Set stop loss below the nearest swing low.
- Set take profit at the nearest resistance zone or exit when the green line crosses below the red line.
- Implement risk management with a risk-to-reward ratio of at least 1:2.
- Sell Signal Criteria:
- Asset demonstrating a downtrend.
- Green line crossing below the red line on the indicator.
- Confirm entry with bearish candlestick patterns.
- Set stop loss above the nearest swing high.
- Set take profit at the nearest support zone or exit when the green line crosses above the red line.
- Implement risk management with a risk-to-reward ratio of at least 1:2.
Advantages and Disadvantages:
Pros:
- Analyses crucial price levels, market momentum, and unexpected trend changes.
- Identifies overbought and oversold levels.
Cons:
- Overbought and oversold levels may not always lead to immediate price reversals.
- Signals might occasionally misinterpret a trend reversal as a correction, and vice versa.
The strength of the indicator lies in its intricate approach to price analysis and its effort to minimize false signals. However, traders should exercise caution and consider supplementary confirmation signals for more robust trade decisions.
Stochastic RSI Buy/Sell SignalThis indicator will show you a red circle above candles when Stoch RSI K value is greater than your "overbought" value, and a green circle above candles when Stoch RSI K value is below your "oversold" value. Updatable oversold and overbought values.
[KVA]K Stochastic IndicatorOriginal Stochastic Oscillator Formula:
%K=(C−Lowest Low)/(Highest High−Lowest Low)×100
Lowest Low refers to the lowest low of the past n periods.
Highest High refers to the highest high of the past n periods.
K Stochastic Indicator Formula:
%K=(Source−Lowest Source)/(Highest Source−Lowest Source)×100
Lowest Source refers to the lowest value of the chosen source over the past length periods.
Highest Source refers to the highest value of the chosen source over the past length periods.
Key Difference :
The original formula calculates %K using the absolute highest high and lowest low of the price over the past n periods.
The K Stochastic formula calculates %K using the highest and lowest values of a chosen source (which could be the close, open, high, or low) over the specified length periods.
So, if _src is set to something other than the high for the Highest Source or something other than the low for the Lowest Source, the K Stochastic will yield different results compared to the original formula which strictly uses the highest high and the lowest low of the price.
Impact on Traders :
Flexibility in Price Source :
By allowing the source (_src) to be customizable, traders can apply the Stochastic calculation to different price points (e.g., open, high, low, close, or even an average of these). This could provide a different perspective on market momentum and potentially offer signals that are more aligned with a trader's specific strategy.
Sensitivity to Price Action :
Changing the source from high/low to potentially less extreme values (like close or open) could result in a less volatile oscillator, smoothing out some of the extreme peaks and troughs and possibly offering a more filtered view of market conditions.
Customization of Periods :
The ability to adjust the length period offers traders the opportunity to fine-tune the sensitivity of the indicator to match their trading horizon. Shorter periods may provide earlier signals, while longer periods could filter out market noise.
Possibility of Applying the Indicator on Other Indicators :
Layered Technical Analysis :
The K Stochastic can be applied to other indicators, not just price. For example, it could be applied to a moving average to analyze its momentum or to indicators like RSI or MACD, offering a meta-analysis that studies the oscillator's behavior of other technical tools.
Creation of Composite Indicator s:
By applying the K Stochastic logic to other indicators, traders could create composite indicators that blend the characteristics of multiple indicators, potentially leading to unique signals that could offer an edge in certain market conditions.
Enhanced Signal Interpretation :
When applied to other indicators, the K Stochastic can help in identifying overbought or oversold conditions within those indicators, offering a different dimension to the interpretation of their output.
Overall Implications :
The KStochastic Indicator's modifications could lead to a more tailored application, giving traders the ability to adapt the tool to their specific trading style and analysis preferences.
By being applicable to other indicators, it broadens the scope of stochastic analysis beyond price action, potentially offering innovative ways to interpret data and make trading decisions.
The changes might also influence the trading signals, either by smoothing the oscillator's output to reduce noise or by altering the sensitivity to generate more or fewer signal
Including the additional %F line, which is unique to the K Stochastic Indicator, further expands the potential impacts and applications for traders:
Impact on Traders with the %F Line:
Triple Smoothing :
The %F line introduces a third level of smoothing, which could help in identifying longer-term trends and filtering out short-term fluctuations. This could be particularly useful for traders looking to avoid whipsaws and focus on more sustained movements.
Potential for Enhanced Confirmation :
The %F line might be used as a confirmation signal. For instance, if all three lines (%K, %D, and %F) are in agreement, a trader might consider this as a stronger signal to buy or sell, as opposed to when only the traditional two lines (%K and %D) are used.
Risk Management:
The additional line could be utilized for more sophisticated risk management strategies, where a trader might decide to scale in or out of positions based on the convergence or divergence of these lines.
Possibility of Applying the Indicator on Other Indicators with the %F Line:
Depth of Analysis :
When applied to other indicators, the %F line can provide an even deeper layer of analysis, perhaps identifying macro trends within the indicator it is applied to, which could go unnoticed with just the traditional two-line approach.
Refined Signal Strength Assessment :
The strength of signals from other indicators could be assessed by the position and direction of the %F line, providing an additional filter to evaluate the robustness of buy or sell signals.
Overall Implications with the %F Line :
The inclusion of the %F line in the K Stochastic Indicator enhances its utility as a tool for trend analysis and signal confirmation. It allows traders to potentially identify and act on more reliable trading opportunities.
This feature can enrich the trader's toolkit by providing a nuanced view of momentum and trend strength, which can be particularly valuable in volatile or choppy markets.
For those applying the K Stochastic to other indicators, the %F line could be integral in creating a multi-tiered analysis strategy, potentially leading to more sophisticated interpretations and decisions.
The presence of the %F line adds a dimension of depth to the analysis possible with the K Stochastic Indicator, making it a versatile tool that could be tailored to a variety of trading styles and objectives. However, as with any indicator, the additional complexity requires careful study and back-testing to ensure its signals are understood and actionable within the context of a comprehensive trading plan.
MarketSmith Stochasticversion=5
This version of the stochastic produces the identical stochastic as used in MarketSmith
The three primary differences from a classic stochastic are as follows:
1. Close values only
2. 5-day ema instead of 3-day simple moving averages for smoothing the fast and slow lines
3. Slow and fast lines are truncated to integer values

Multiple Ticker Stochastic RSIThe Stochastic RSI is a technical indicator ranging between 0 and 100, based on applying the Stochastic oscillator formula to a set of relative strength index (RSI). Unlike the original Stochastic RSI indicator, this allows you to define up to two additional tickers for which all three will be averaged and outputted visually looking like a standard Stochastic RSI indicator. Potential buy and sell visuals are included, as well as alerts. Please note that this indicator is not meant to be used by itself.
Velocity Indicator [CC]The Velocity Indicator was created by Scott Cong (Stocks and Commodities Sep 2023, pgs 8-15). This is my variation of his formula designed to capture the overall velocity of the underlying stock by applying the typical velocity formula. This indicator is visually similar to a typical stochastic indicator but uses a different underlying calculation. This works well as a momentum indicator, and the values are completely unbounded, so the best ways to determine bullish or bearish trends is either by using a crossover or crossunder between the indicator and the midline or to buy or sell the indicator when it reaches a high or low point and starts to fall or rise respectively. For my default version, I used the zero line to help determine the bullish or bearish trends. I have also included multiple colors to differentiate between very strong signals and normal signals, so very strong signals are darker in color, and normal signals use lighter colors. Buy when the line turns green and sell when it turns red.
Let me know if there are any other indicators or scripts you would like to see me publish! I will have some more new scripts in the next week or so.
Price Exhaustion IndicatorThe Price Exhaustion Indicator (PE) is a powerful tool designed to identify trends weakening and strengthening in the financial markets. It combines the concepts of Average True Range (ATR), Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD), and Stochastic Oscillator to provide a comprehensive assessment of trend exhaustion levels. By analyzing these multiple indicators together, traders and investors can gain valuable insights into potential price reversals and long-term market highs and lows.
The aim of combining the ATR, MACD, and Stochastic Oscillator, is to provide a comprehensive analysis of trend exhaustion. The ATR component helps assess the volatility and range of price movements, while the MACD offers insights into the convergence and divergence of moving averages. The Stochastic Oscillator measures the current price in relation to its range, providing further confirmation of trend exhaustion. The exhaustion value is derived by combining the MACD, ATR, and Stochastic Oscillator. The MACD value is divided by the ATR value, and then multiplied by the Stochastic Oscillator value. This calculation results in a single exhaustion value that reflects the combined influence of these three indicators.
Application
The Price Exhaustion Indicator utilizes a unique visual representation by incorporating a gradient color scheme. The exhaustion line dynamically changes color, ranging from white when close to the midline (40) to shades of purple as it approaches points of exhaustion (overbought at 100 and oversold at -20). As the exhaustion line approaches the color purple, this represents extreme market conditions and zones of weakened trends where reversals may occur. This color gradient serves as a visual cue, allowing users to quickly gauge the strength or weakness of the prevailing trend.
To further enhance its usability, the Price Exhaustion Indicator also includes circle plots that signify potential points of trend reversion. These plots appear when the exhaustion lines cross or enter the overbought and oversold zones. Red circle plots indicate potential short entry points, suggesting a weakening trend and the possibility of a downward price reversal. Conversely, green circle plots represent potential long entry points, indicating a strengthening trend and the potential for an upward price reversal.
Traders and investors can leverage the Price Exhaustion Indicator in various ways. It can be utilized as a trend-following tool, or a mean reversion tool. When the exhaustion line approaches the overbought or oversold zones, it suggests a weakening trend and the possibility of a price reversal, helping identify potential market tops and bottoms. This can guide traders in timing their entries or exits in anticipation of a trend shift.
Utility
The Price Exhaustion Indicator is particularly useful for long-term market analysis, as it focuses on identifying long-term market highs and lows. By capturing the gradual weakening or strengthening of a trend, it assists investors in making informed decisions about portfolio allocation, trend continuation, or potential reversals.
In summary, the Price Exhaustion Indicator is a comprehensive and visually intuitive tool that combines ATR, MACD, and Stochastic Oscillator to identify trend exhaustion levels. By utilizing a gradient color scheme and circle plots, it offers traders and investors valuable insights into potential trend reversals and long-term market highs and lows. Its unique features make it a valuable addition to any trader's toolkit, providing a deeper understanding of market dynamics and assisting in decision-making processes. Please note that future performance of any trading strategy is fundamentally unknowable, and past results do not guarantee future performance.
Kalman Filtered ROC & Stochastic with MA SmoothingThe "Smooth ROC & Stochastic with Kalman Filter" indicator is a trend following tool designed to identify trends in the price movement. It combines the Rate of Change (ROC) and Stochastic indicators into a single oscillator, the combination of ROC and Stochastic indicators aims to offer complementary information: ROC measures the speed of price change, while Stochastic identifies overbought and oversold conditions, allowing for a more robust assessment of market trends and potential reversals. The indicator plots green "B" labels to indicate buy signals and blue "S" labels to represent sell signals. Additionally, it displays a white line that reflects the overall trend for buy signals and a blue line for sell signals. The aim of the indicator is to incorporate Kalman and Moving Average (MA) smoothing techniques to reduce noise and enhance the clarity of the signals.
Rationale for using Kalman Filter:
The Kalman Filter is chosen as a smoothing tool in the indicator because it effectively reduces noise and fluctuations. The Kalman Filter is a mathematical algorithm used for estimating and predicting the state of a system based on noisy and incomplete measurements. It combines information from previous states and current measurements to generate an optimal estimate of the true state, while simultaneously minimizing the effects of noise and uncertainty. In the context of the indicator, the Kalman Filter is applied to smooth the input data, which is the source for the Rate of Change (ROC) calculation. By considering the previous smoothed state and the difference between the current measurement and the predicted value, the Kalman Filter dynamically adjusts its estimation to reduce the impact of outliers.
Calculation:
The indicator utilizes a combination of the ROC and the Stochastic indicator. The ROC is smoothed using a Kalman Filter (credit to © Loxx: ), which helps eliminate unwanted fluctuations and improve the signal quality. The Stochastic indicator is calculated with customizable parameters for %K length, %K smoothing, and %D smoothing. The smoothed ROC and Stochastic values are then averaged using the formula ((roc + d) / 2) to create the blended oscillator. MA smoothing is applied to the combined oscillator aiming to further reduce fluctuations and enhance trend visibility. Traders are free to choose their own preferred MA type from 'EMA', 'DEMA', 'TEMA', 'WMA', 'VWMA', 'SMA', 'SMMA', 'HMA', 'LSMA', and 'PEMA' (credit to: © traderharikrishna for this code: ).
Application:
The indicator's buy signals (represented by green "B" labels) indicate potential entry points for buying assets, suggesting a bullish trend. The white line visually represents the trend, helping traders identify and follow the upward momentum. Conversely, the sell signals (blue "S" labels) highlight possible exit points or opportunities for short selling, indicating a bearish trend. The blue line illustrates the bearish movement, aiding in the identification of downward momentum.
The "Smoothed ROC & Stochastic" indicator offers traders a comprehensive view of market trends by combining two powerful oscillators. By incorporating the ROC and Stochastic indicators into a single oscillator, it provides a more holistic perspective on the market's momentum. The use of a Kalman Filter for smoothing helps reduce noise and enhance the accuracy of the signals. Additionally, the indicator allows customization of the smoothing technique through various moving average types. Traders can also utilize the overbought and oversold zones for additional analysis, providing insights into potential market reversals or extreme price conditions. Please note that future performance of any trading strategy is fundamentally unknowable, and past results do not guarantee future performance.
RSI with J-Line ***For ease of use, I recommend changing the J Histogram to a line indicator, then it works like the KDJ Stochastic indicator. Full disclosure, I created this script with the help of GPT. This script was inspired by the KDJ Stochastic indicator by Dreadblitz***
The "RSI with J-Line" script is essentially a modified Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicator with an added histogram component. Here's how to use the different components of the script:
RSI Line (Blue): The RSI is a momentum oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements. It oscillates between zero and 100, and is typically used to identify overbought and oversold conditions in a market. Traditionally, readings over 70 are considered overbought, and readings under 30 are considered oversold. However, these are not strict rules and can vary depending on the market and the overall trend.
RSI Smooth Line (Orange): This is the simple moving average of the RSI. It helps to smooth out the RSI and to identify the overall trend of the momentum. When the RSI line crosses above the RSI Smooth line, it might indicate that the momentum is moving upwards. When the RSI line crosses below the RSI Smooth line, it might indicate that the momentum is moving downwards.
RSI J-Line (Red Histogram): The J-Line is an additional line that's calculated as 3*rsiSmooth - 2*rsi. It's similar to the %J line in the Stochastic indicator and is designed to provide quicker signals than the RSI or RSI Smooth line. When the histogram is above the 0 line, it might indicate bullish momentum. When it's below the 0 line, it might indicate bearish momentum.
Please note that these interpretations are standard for these types of indicators, but actual market behavior can be complex and is influenced by many factors. Indicators should be used as part of a comprehensive trading strategy, not in isolation. Always take into account other market information and indicators before making trading decisions.
Stochastic Distance Indicator [CC]The Stochastic Distance Indicator was created by Vitali Apirine (Stocks and Commodities Jun 2023 pgs 16-21), and this is a new method that measures the absolute distance between a price and its highest and lowest values over a long period. It uses the stochastic formula to create an oscillator using this distance value and smooths the value. Obviously, there is a lag in signals due to the lookback periods, but it does a good job of staying above the midline when the stock is in a strong uptrend and vice versa. Of course, I'm open to suggestions, but I'm deciding to create buy and sell signals based on comparing the unsmoothed and smoothed values. Buy when the line turns green and sell when it turns red.
Let me know if there are any other indicators you would like to see me publish!
RSI, SRSI, MACD and DMI cross - Open source codeHello,
I'm a passionate trader who has spent years studying technical analysis and exploring different trading strategies. Through my research, I've come to realize that certain indicators are essential tools for conducting accurate market analysis and identifying profitable trading opportunities. In particular, I've found that the RSI, SRSI, MACD cross, and Di cross indicators are crucial for my trading success.
Detailed explanation:
The RSI is a momentum indicator that measures the strength of price movements. It is calculated by comparing the average of gains and losses over a certain period of time. In this indicator, the RSI is calculated based on the close price with a length of 14 periods.
The Stochastic RSI is a combination of the Stochastic Oscillator and the RSI. It is used to identify overbought and oversold conditions of the market. In this indicator, the Stochastic RSI is calculated based on the RSI with a length of 14 periods.
The MACD is a trend-following momentum indicator that shows the relationship between two moving averages of prices. It consists of two lines, the MACD line and the signal line, which are used to generate buy and sell signals. In this indicator, the MACD is calculated based on the close price with fast and slow lengths of 12 and 26 periods, respectively, and a signal length of 9 periods.
The DMI is a trend-following indicator that measures the strength of directional movement in the market. It consists of three lines, the Positive Directional Indicator (+DI), the Negative Directional Indicator (-DI), and the Average Directional Index (ADX), which are used to generate buy and sell signals. In this indicator, the DMI is calculated with a length of 14 periods and an ADX smoothing of 14 periods.
The indicator generates buy signals when certain conditions are met for each of these indicators.
1) For the RSI, a buy signal is generated when the RSI is below or equal to 35 and the Stochastic RSI %K is below or equal to 15, or when the RSI is below or equal to 28 the Stochastic RSI %K is below or equal to 15 or when the RSI is below or equal to 25 and the Stochastic RSI %K is below or equal to 10 or when the RSI is below or equal to 28.
2) For the MACD, a buy signal is generated when the MACD line is below 0, there is a change in the histogram from negative to positive, the MACD line and histogram are negative in the previous period, and the current histogram value is greater than 0.
3) For the DMI, a buy signal is generated when the Positive Directional Indicator (+DI) crosses above the Negative Directional Indicator (-DI), and the -DI is less than the +DI.
The indicator generates sell signals when certain conditions are met for each of these indicators:
1) For the RSI, a sell signal is generated when the RSI is above or equal to 75 and the Stochastic RSI %K is above or equal to 85, or when the RSI is above or equal to 80 and the Stochastic RSI %K is above or equal to 85, or when the RSI is above or equal to 85 and the Stochastic RSI %K is above or equal to 90 or when the RSI is above or equal to 82.
2)For the MACD, a sell signal is generated when the MACD line is above 0, there is a change in the histogram from positive to negative, the MACD line and histogram are positive in the previous period, and the current histogram value is less than the previous histogram value. On the other hand, a buy signal is generated when the MACD line is below 0, there is a change in the histogram from negative to positive, the MACD line and histogram are negative in the previous period, and the current histogram value is greater than the previous histogram value.
3)For the DMI a bearish signal is generated when plusDI crosses above minusDI, indicating that bulls are losing strength and bears are taking control.
The indicator uses a combination of these four indicators to generate potential buy and sell signals. The buy signals are generated when RSI and SRSI values are in oversold conditions, while sell signals are generated when RSI and SRSI values are in overbought conditions. The indicator also uses MACD crossovers and DMI crossovers to generate additional buy and sell signals.

The use of multiple signals within a specific timeframe can increase the accuracy and reliability of the signals generated by this indicator. It is recommended to look for at least two signals within a range of 5-8 candles in order to increase the probability of a successful trade.
Why it's original?
1) There is no indicator in the library that combine all of these indicators and give you a 360 view
2)The combination of the RSI, Stochastic RSI, MACD, and DMI indicators in a single script it's unique and not available in the libray.
3)The specific parameters and conditions used to calculate the signals may be unique and not found in other scripts or libraries.
4)The use of plotshape() to plot the signals as shapes on the chart may be unique compared to other scripts that simply plot lines or bars to indicate signals.
5)The use of alertcondition() to trigger alerts based on the signals may be unique compared to other scripts that do not have custom alert functionality.
Keep attention!
It is important to note that no trading indicator or strategy is foolproof, and there is always a risk of losses in trading. While this indicator may provide useful information for making conclusions, it should not be used as the sole basis for making trading decisions. Traders should always use proper risk management techniques and consider multiple factors when making trading decisions.

TASC 2023.06 Stochastic Distance Oscillator█ OVERVIEW
This script implements the stochastic distance oscillator (SDO) , a momentum indicator introduced by Vitali Apirine in an article featured in TASC's June 2023 edition of Traders' Tips . The SDO is a variation of the classic stochastic oscillator and is designed to identify overbought and oversold levels, as well as detect bull and bear trend changes.
█ CONCEPTS
Unlike the classic stochastic oscillator, which compares an asset's price to its past price range, the SDO measures the size of the current distance relative to the maximum-minimum distance range over a set number of periods. The current distance is defined as the distance between the current price and the price n periods ago.
The readings of the SDO can be used to identify the following states of the asset price:
Uptrend state: the oscillator crosses over 50 from a non-uptrend state.
Downtrend state: the oscillator crosses under -50 from a non-downtrend state.
Overbought state: the oscillator is in an uptrend and crosses -50 for the first time.
Oversold state: the oscillator is in a downtrend and crosses 50 for the first time.
Trend continuity: the oscillator crosses 0 in the direction of the current trend.
The script indicates these five conditions using on-chart signals and background coloring.
█ CALCULATIONS
The SDO is calculated as follows:
1. Calculate the distance between the current price and the price n periods ago, as well as the maximum and minimum distances for the selected lookback period. The author recommends using one of two values of n , 14 or 40 bars.
2. Calculate the time series % D that represents the relation between the asset's current distance and its distance range over a loockback period:
% D = (Abs(current distance) − Abs(minimum distance)) / (Abs(maximum distance) − Abs(minimum distance)) * 100
3. Use the calculated % D to obtain the SDO:
If the closing price is above the close n periods ago, SDO = % D
If the closing price is below the close n periods ago, SDO = −% D
If the closing price equals the close n periods ago or the current distance equals the minimum distance, SDO = 0
4. Smooth the SDO using an exponential moving average (EMA). The author recommends using an EMA in the range from 3 to 6 .
Adjustable input parameters include the number of periods n , the lookback period for calculating % D , the smoothing EMA length, and the overbought/oversold threshold level.
Stochastic Chebyshev Smoothed With Zero Lag SmoothingFast and Smooth Stochastic Oscillator with Zero Lag
Introduction
In this post, we will discuss a custom implementation of a Stochastic Oscillator that not only smooths the signal but also does so without introducing any noticeable lag. This is a remarkable achievement, as it allows for a fast Stochastic Oscillator that is less prone to false signals without being slow and sluggish.
We will go through the code step by step, explaining the various functions and the overall structure of the code.
First, let's start with a brief overview of the Stochastic Oscillator and the problem it addresses.
Background
The Stochastic Oscillator is a momentum indicator used in technical analysis to determine potential overbought or oversold conditions in an asset's price. It compares the closing price of an asset to its price range over a specified period. However, the Stochastic Oscillator is susceptible to false signals due to its sensitivity to price movements. This is where our custom implementation comes in, offering a smoother signal without noticeable lag, thus reducing the number of false signals.
Despite its popularity and widespread use in technical analysis, the Stochastic Oscillator has its share of drawbacks. While it is a price scaler that allows for easier comparisons across different assets and timeframes, it is also known for generating false signals, which can lead to poor trading decisions. In this section, we will delve deeper into the limitations of the Stochastic Oscillator and discuss the challenges associated with smoothing to mitigate its drawbacks.
Limitations of the Stochastic Oscillator
False Signals: The primary issue with the Stochastic Oscillator is its tendency to produce false signals. Since it is a momentum indicator, it reacts to short-term price movements, which can lead to frequent overbought and oversold signals that do not necessarily indicate a trend reversal. This can result in traders entering or exiting positions prematurely, incurring losses or missing out on potential gains.
Sensitivity to Market Noise: The Stochastic Oscillator is highly sensitive to market noise, which can create erratic signals in volatile markets. This sensitivity can make it difficult for traders to discern between genuine trend reversals and temporary fluctuations.
Lack of Predictive Power: Although the Stochastic Oscillator can help identify potential overbought and oversold conditions, it does not provide any information about the future direction or strength of a trend. As a result, it is often used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools to improve its predictive power.
Challenges of Smoothing the Stochastic Oscillator
To address the limitations of the Stochastic Oscillator, many traders attempt to smooth the indicator by applying various techniques. However, these approaches are not without their own set of challenges:
Trade-off between Smoothing and Responsiveness: The process of smoothing the Stochastic Oscillator inherently involves reducing its sensitivity to price movements. While this can help eliminate false signals, it can also result in a less responsive indicator, which may not react quickly enough to genuine trend reversals. This trade-off can make it challenging to find the optimal balance between smoothing and responsiveness.
Increased Complexity: Smoothing techniques often involve the use of additional mathematical functions and algorithms, which can increase the complexity of the indicator. This can make it more difficult for traders to understand and interpret the signals generated by the smoothed Stochastic Oscillator.
Lagging Signals: Some smoothing methods, such as moving averages, can introduce a time lag into the Stochastic Oscillator's signals. This can result in late entry or exit points, potentially reducing the profitability of a trading strategy based on the smoothed indicator.
Overfitting: In an attempt to eliminate false signals, traders may over-optimize their smoothing parameters, resulting in a Stochastic Oscillator that is overfitted to historical data. This can lead to poor performance in real-time trading, as the overfitted indicator may not accurately reflect the dynamics of the current market.
In our custom implementation of the Stochastic Oscillator, we used a combination of Chebyshev Type I Moving Average and zero-lag Gaussian-weighted moving average filters to address the indicator's limitations while preserving its responsiveness. In this section, we will discuss the reasons behind selecting these specific filters and the advantages of using the Chebyshev filter for our purpose.
Filter Selection
Chebyshev Type I Moving Average: The Chebyshev filter was chosen for its ability to provide a smoother signal without sacrificing much responsiveness. This filter is designed to minimize the maximum error between the original and the filtered signal within a specific frequency range, effectively reducing noise while preserving the overall shape of the signal. The Chebyshev Type I Moving Average achieves this by allowing a specified amount of ripple in the passband, resulting in a more aggressive filter roll-off and better noise reduction compared to other filters, such as the Butterworth filter.
Zero-lag Gaussian-weighted Moving Average: To further improve the Stochastic Oscillator's performance without introducing noticeable lag, we used the zero-lag Gaussian-weighted moving average (GWMA) filter. This filter combines the benefits of a Gaussian-weighted moving average, which prioritizes recent data points by assigning them higher weights, with a zero-lag approach that minimizes the time delay in the filtered signal. The result is a smoother signal that is less prone to false signals and is more responsive than traditional moving average filters.
Advantages of the Chebyshev Filter
Effective Noise Reduction: The primary advantage of the Chebyshev filter is its ability to effectively reduce noise in the Stochastic Oscillator signal. By minimizing the maximum error within a specified frequency range, the Chebyshev filter suppresses short-term fluctuations that can lead to false signals while preserving the overall trend.
Customizable Ripple Factor: The Chebyshev Type I Moving Average allows for a customizable ripple factor, enabling traders to fine-tune the filter's aggressiveness in reducing noise. This flexibility allows for better adaptability to different market conditions and trading styles.
Responsiveness: Despite its effective noise reduction, the Chebyshev filter remains relatively responsive compared to other smoothing filters. This responsiveness allows for more accurate detection of genuine trend reversals, making it a suitable choice for our custom Stochastic Oscillator implementation.
Compatibility with Zero-lag Techniques: The Chebyshev filter can be effectively combined with zero-lag techniques, such as the Gaussian-weighted moving average filter used in our custom implementation. This combination results in a Stochastic Oscillator that is both smooth and responsive, with minimal lag.
Code Overview
The code begins with defining custom mathematical functions for hyperbolic sine, cosine, and their inverse functions. These functions will be used later in the code for smoothing purposes.
Next, the gaussian_weight function is defined, which calculates the Gaussian weight for a given 'k' and 'smooth_per'. The zero_lag_gwma function calculates the zero-lag moving average with Gaussian weights. This function is used to create a Gaussian-weighted moving average with minimal lag.
The chebyshevI function is an implementation of the Chebyshev Type I Moving Average, which is used for smoothing the Stochastic Oscillator. This function takes the source value (src), length of the moving average (len), and the ripple factor (ripple) as input parameters.
The main part of the code starts by defining input parameters for K and D smoothing and ripple values. The Stochastic Oscillator is calculated using the ta.stoch function with Chebyshev smoothed inputs for close, high, and low. The result is further smoothed using the zero-lag Gaussian-weighted moving average function (zero_lag_gwma).
Finally, the lag variable is calculated using the Chebyshev Type I Moving Average for the Stochastic Oscillator. The Stochastic Oscillator and the lag variable are plotted on the chart, along with upper and lower bands at 80 and 20 levels, respectively. A fill is added between the upper and lower bands for better visualization.
Conclusion
The custom Stochastic Oscillator presented in this blog post combines the Chebyshev Type I Moving Average and zero-lag Gaussian-weighted moving average filters to provide a smooth and responsive signal without introducing noticeable lag. This innovative implementation results in a fast Stochastic Oscillator that is less prone to false signals, making it a valuable tool for technical analysts and traders alike.
However, it is crucial to recognize that the Stochastic Oscillator, despite being a price scaler, has its limitations, primarily due to its propensity for generating false signals. While smoothing techniques, like the ones used in our custom implementation, can help mitigate these issues, they often introduce new challenges, such as reduced responsiveness, increased complexity, lagging signals, and the risk of overfitting.
The selection of the Chebyshev Type I Moving Average and zero-lag Gaussian-weighted moving average filters was driven by their combined ability to provide a smooth and responsive signal while minimizing false signals. The advantages of the Chebyshev filter, such as effective noise reduction, customizable ripple factor, and responsiveness, make it an excellent fit for addressing the limitations of the Stochastic Oscillator.
When using the Stochastic Oscillator, traders should be aware of these limitations and challenges, and consider incorporating other technical analysis tools and techniques to supplement the indicator's signals. This can help improve the overall accuracy and effectiveness of their trading strategies, reducing the risk of losses due to false signals and other limitations associated with the Stochastic Oscillator.
Feel free to use, modify, or improve upon this custom Stochastic Oscillator code in your trading strategies. We hope this detailed walkthrough of the custom Stochastic Oscillator, its limitations, challenges, and filter selection has provided you with valuable insights and a better understanding of how it works. Happy trading!
Stochastic RSI of Smoothed Price [Loxx]What is Stochastic RSI of Smoothed Price?
This indicator is just as it's title suggests. There are six different signal types, various price smoothing types, and seven types of RSI.
This indicator contains 7 different types of RSI:
RSX
Regular
Slow
Rapid
Harris
Cuttler
Ehlers Smoothed
What is RSI?
RSI stands for Relative Strength Index . It is a technical indicator used to measure the strength or weakness of a financial instrument's price action.
The RSI is calculated based on the price movement of an asset over a specified period of time, typically 14 days, and is expressed on a scale of 0 to 100. The RSI is considered overbought when it is above 70 and oversold when it is below 30.
Traders and investors use the RSI to identify potential buy and sell signals. When the RSI indicates that an asset is oversold, it may be considered a buying opportunity, while an overbought RSI may signal that it is time to sell or take profits.
It's important to note that the RSI should not be used in isolation and should be used in conjunction with other technical and fundamental analysis tools to make informed trading decisions.
What is RSX?
Jurik RSX is a technical analysis indicator that is a variation of the Relative Strength Index Smoothed ( RSX ) indicator. It was developed by Mark Jurik and is designed to help traders identify trends and momentum in the market.
The Jurik RSX uses a combination of the RSX indicator and an adaptive moving average (AMA) to smooth out the price data and reduce the number of false signals. The adaptive moving average is designed to adjust the smoothing period based on the current market conditions, which makes the indicator more responsive to changes in price.
The Jurik RSX can be used to identify potential trend reversals and momentum shifts in the market. It oscillates between 0 and 100, with values above 50 indicating a bullish trend and values below 50 indicating a bearish trend . Traders can use these levels to make trading decisions, such as buying when the indicator crosses above 50 and selling when it crosses below 50.
The Jurik RSX is a more advanced version of the RSX indicator, and while it can be useful in identifying potential trade opportunities, it should not be used in isolation. It is best used in conjunction with other technical and fundamental analysis tools to make informed trading decisions.
What is Slow RSI?
Slow RSI is a variation of the traditional Relative Strength Index ( RSI ) indicator. It is a more smoothed version of the RSI and is designed to filter out some of the noise and short-term price fluctuations that can occur with the standard RSI .
The Slow RSI uses a longer period of time than the traditional RSI , typically 21 periods instead of 14. This longer period helps to smooth out the price data and makes the indicator less reactive to short-term price fluctuations.
Like the traditional RSI , the Slow RSI is used to identify potential overbought and oversold conditions in the market. It oscillates between 0 and 100, with values above 70 indicating overbought conditions and values below 30 indicating oversold conditions. Traders often use these levels as potential buy and sell signals.
The Slow RSI is a more conservative version of the RSI and can be useful in identifying longer-term trends in the market. However, it can also be slower to respond to changes in price, which may result in missed trading opportunities. Traders may choose to use a combination of both the Slow RSI and the traditional RSI to make informed trading decisions.
What is Rapid RSI?
Same as regular RSI but with a faster calculation method
What is Harris RSI?
Harris RSI is a technical analysis indicator that is a variation of the Relative Strength Index ( RSI ). It was developed by Larry Harris and is designed to help traders identify potential trend changes and momentum shifts in the market.
The Harris RSI uses a different calculation formula compared to the traditional RSI . It takes into account both the opening and closing prices of a financial instrument, as well as the high and low prices. The Harris RSI is also normalized to a range of 0 to 100, with values above 50 indicating a bullish trend and values below 50 indicating a bearish trend .
Like the traditional RSI , the Harris RSI is used to identify potential overbought and oversold conditions in the market. It oscillates between 0 and 100, with values above 70 indicating overbought conditions and values below 30 indicating oversold conditions. Traders often use these levels as potential buy and sell signals.
The Harris RSI is a more advanced version of the RSI and can be useful in identifying longer-term trends in the market. However, it can also generate more false signals than the standard RSI . Traders may choose to use a combination of both the Harris RSI and the traditional RSI to make informed trading decisions.
What is Cuttler RSI?
Cuttler RSI is a technical analysis indicator that is a variation of the Relative Strength Index ( RSI ). It was developed by Curt Cuttler and is designed to help traders identify potential trend changes and momentum shifts in the market.
The Cuttler RSI uses a different calculation formula compared to the traditional RSI . It takes into account the difference between the closing price of a financial instrument and the average of the high and low prices over a specified period of time. This difference is then normalized to a range of 0 to 100, with values above 50 indicating a bullish trend and values below 50 indicating a bearish trend .
Like the traditional RSI , the Cuttler RSI is used to identify potential overbought and oversold conditions in the market. It oscillates between 0 and 100, with values above 70 indicating overbought conditions and values below 30 indicating oversold conditions. Traders often use these levels as potential buy and sell signals.
The Cuttler RSI is a more advanced version of the RSI and can be useful in identifying longer-term trends in the market. However, it can also generate more false signals than the standard RSI . Traders may choose to use a combination of both the Cuttler RSI and the traditional RSI to make informed trading decisions.
What is Ehlers Smoothed RSI?
Ehlers smoothed RSI is a technical analysis indicator that is a variation of the Relative Strength Index ( RSI ). It was developed by John Ehlers and is designed to help traders identify potential trend changes and momentum shifts in the market.
The Ehlers smoothed RSI uses a different calculation formula compared to the traditional RSI . It uses a smoothing algorithm that is designed to reduce the noise and random fluctuations that can occur with the standard RSI . The smoothing algorithm is based on a concept called "digital signal processing" and is intended to improve the accuracy of the indicator.
Like the traditional RSI , the Ehlers smoothed RSI is used to identify potential overbought and oversold conditions in the market. It oscillates between 0 and 100, with values above 70 indicating overbought conditions and values below 30 indicating oversold conditions. Traders often use these levels as potential buy and sell signals.
The Ehlers smoothed RSI can be useful in identifying longer-term trends and momentum shifts in the market. However, it can also generate more false signals than the standard RSI . Traders may choose to use a combination of both the Ehlers smoothed RSI and the traditional RSI to make informed trading decisions.
What is Stochastic RSI?
Stochastic RSI (StochRSI) is a technical analysis indicator that combines the concepts of the Stochastic Oscillator and the Relative Strength Index (RSI). It is used to identify potential overbought and oversold conditions in financial markets, as well as to generate buy and sell signals based on the momentum of price movements.
To understand Stochastic RSI, let's first define the two individual indicators it is based on:
Stochastic Oscillator: A momentum indicator that compares a particular closing price of a security to a range of its prices over a certain period. It is used to identify potential trend reversals and generate buy and sell signals.
Relative Strength Index (RSI): A momentum oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements. It ranges between 0 and 100 and is used to identify overbought or oversold conditions in the market.
Now, let's dive into the Stochastic RSI:
The Stochastic RSI applies the Stochastic Oscillator formula to the RSI values, essentially creating an indicator of an indicator. It helps to identify when the RSI is in overbought or oversold territory with more sensitivity, providing more frequent signals than the standalone RSI.
The formula for StochRSI is as follows:
StochRSI = (RSI - Lowest Low RSI) / (Highest High RSI - Lowest Low RSI)
Where:
RSI is the current RSI value.
Lowest Low RSI is the lowest RSI value over a specified period (e.g., 14 days).
Highest High RSI is the highest RSI value over the same specified period.
StochRSI ranges from 0 to 1, but it is usually multiplied by 100 for easier interpretation, making the range 0 to 100. Like the RSI, values close to 0 indicate oversold conditions, while values close to 100 indicate overbought conditions. However, since the StochRSI is more sensitive, traders typically use 20 as the oversold threshold and 80 as the overbought threshold.
Traders use the StochRSI to generate buy and sell signals by looking for crossovers with a signal line (a moving average of the StochRSI), similar to the way the Stochastic Oscillator is used. When the StochRSI crosses above the signal line, it is considered a bullish signal, and when it crosses below the signal line, it is considered a bearish signal.
It is essential to use the Stochastic RSI in conjunction with other technical analysis tools and indicators, as well as to consider the overall market context, to improve the accuracy and reliability of trading signals.

Stochastic Momentum Index (SMI) Refurbished▮Introduction
Stochastic Momentum Index (SMI) Indicator is a technical indicator used in technical analysis of stocks and other financial instruments.
It was developed by William Blau in 1993 and is considered to be a momentum indicator that can help identify trend reversal points.
Basically, it's a combination of the True Strength Index with a signal line to help identify turning points in the market.
SMI uses the stochastic formula to compare the current closing price of an asset with the maximum and minimum price range over a specific period.
He then compares this ratio to a short-term moving average to create an indicator that oscillates between -100 and +100.
When the SMI is above 0, it is considered positive, indicating that the current price is above the short-term moving average.
When it is below 0, it is considered negative, indicating that the current price is below the short-term moving average.
Traders use the SMI to identify potential trend reversal points.
When the indicator reaches an extreme level above +40 or below -40, a trend reversal is possible.
Furthermore, traders also watch for divergences between the SMI and the asset price to identify potential trading opportunities.
It is important to remember that the SMI is a technical indicator and as such should be used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools to get a complete picture of the market situation.

▮ About Dynamic Zones
'Most indicators use a fixed zone for buy and sell signals.
Here's a concept based on zones that are responsive to the past levels of the indicator.'
The concept of Dynamic Zones was described by Leo Zamansky ( Ph .D.) and David Stendahl, in the magazine of Stocks & Commodities V15:7 (306-310).
Basically, a statistical calculation is made to define the extreme levels, delimiting a possible overbought/oversold region.
Given user-defined probabilities, the percentile is calculated using the method of Nearest Rank.
It is calculated by taking the difference between the data point and the number of data points below it, then dividing by the total number of data points in the set.
The result is expressed as a percentage.
This provides a measure of how a particular value compares to other values in a data set, identifying outliers or values that are significantly higher or lower than the rest of the data.

Orion:SagittaSagitta
Sagitta is an indicator the works to assist in the validation of potential long entries and to place stop-loss orders. Sagitta is not a "golden indicator" but more of a confirmation indicator of what prices might be suggesting.
The concept is that while stocks can turn in one bar, it usually takes two bars or more to signal a turn. So, using a measurement of two bars help determine the potential turning of prices.
Behind the scenes, Sagitta is nothing more than a 2 period stochastic which has had its values divided into five specific zones.
Dividing the range of the two bars in five sections, the High is equal to 100 and the Low is equal to 0.
The zones are:
20 = bearish (red) – This is when the close is the lower 20% of the two bars
40 = bearish (orange) – This is when the close is between the lower 20% and 40% of the two bars.
60 = neutral (yellow) – This is when the close is between the middle 40% - 60% of the two bars.
80 = bullish (blue) – This is when the close is between the upper 60% - 80% of the two bars.
100 = bullish (green) – This is when the close is above the upper 80% of the bar.
The general confirmation concept works as such:
When the following bar is of a higher value than the previous bar, there is potential for further upward price movement. Conversely when the following bar is lower than the previous bar, there is potential for further downward movement.
Going from a red bar to orange bar Might be an indication of a positive turn in direction of prices.
Going from a green bar to an orange bar would also be considered a negative directional turn of prices.
When the follow on bar decreases (ie, green to blue, blue to yellow, etc) placing a stop-loss would be prudent.
Maroon lines in the middle of a bar is an indication that prices are currently caught in consolidation.
Silver/Gray bars indicate that a high potential exists for a strong upward turn in prices exists.
Consolidation is calculated by determining if the close of one bar is between the high and low of another bar. This then establishes the range high and low. As long as closes continue with this range, the high and low of the range can expand. When the close is outside of the range, the consolidation is reset.
Signals in areas of consolidation (maroon center bar) should be looked upon as if the prices are going to challenge the high of the consolidation range and not necessarily break through.
The entry technique used is:
The greater of the following two calculations:
High of signal bar * 1.002 or High of signal bar + .03
The stop-loss technique used is:
The lesser of the following two calculations:
Low of signal bar * .998 or Low of signal bar - .03
IF an entry signal is generated and the price doesn’t reach the entry calculation. It is considered a failed entry and is not considered a negative or that you missed out on something. This has saved you from losing money since the prices are not ready to commit to the direction.
When placing a stop-loss, it is never suggested that you lower the value of a stop-loss. Always move your stop-losses higher in order to lock in profit in case of a negative turn.
DSS Bressert Stochastic MTFDouble Smoothed Stochastics – DSS Bressert is an oscillator introduced by William Blau and Walter Bressert shortly after each other in two slightly different versions. The calculation of DSS Bressert values is similar to the stochastic indicator. The difference is the use of double exponential smoothing. The advantages over the classic stochastic oscillators are the fast response to price changes in a still very smooth pattern. In addition, the extreme zones at the other end of the scale are reached quite frequently, even in strong trends, resulting in many trend conforming signals. Double Smoothed Stochastics – DSS The Bressert values are the same as the stochastics – values above 80 indicate an overbought condition of the market, values below 20 indicate an oversold condition of the market.
This is a full implementation of the original Stochastic Calulation with Multi-Time-Frame options. Other available scrips are lagging here and messing MTF up...
This Scrip will plot 2 lines for the double smoothed Stochastic based on the original exponential calculation from Blau/Bressert. Whilst the original stochastic is only simple moving average.
If you are a daytrader or scalper, the script is able to show a slow line and a fast line pair. Preferred Settings are embedded as screenshot.
Stochastic EMA, SMA, VWMA + DivergenceEvery MetaTrader User knows the function to switch the stochastic calculation from simple to exponential.
So i took the original Stochastic code from TV and enhanced it for the SMA, EMA, and VWMA smoothing. If you are using a longer K Smoothing interval you will recognize a notable difference between SMA and EMA.
Standard Stochastic Calculation that is well kown
Option to switch smoothing calculation
Choice between Simple Moving Average, Exponential Moving Average, Volume Weighted Moving Average
If you have more wishes regarding the smoothing, just leave a comment i can add a lot more...
On my to-do list is also the divergence lines known from the "divergence indicator" (RSI).
I hope this helps to get better entries ;-)
Have fun!
