Multi-Length Stochastic Average [LuxAlgo]This indicator returns the average of stochastic oscillators with periods ranging from 4 to length . This allows for a slightly more reactive oscillator as well as having information regarding the position of the price relative to rolling maximums/minimums of different periods.
We introduce settings that allow for pre and post-smoothing, with selectable smoothing methods and periods for both steps.
Settings
Length: Period of the indicator, determine the maximum period of the stochastic oscillator used in the average
Source: Source input of the indicator
Pre-Smoothing (1st Input): Degree of smoothing applied to the source input
Pre-Smoothing (2nd Input): Pre-Smoothing Method
Post-Smoothing (1st Input): Degree of smoothing applied to the final oscillator output
Post-Smoothing (2nd Input): Post-Smoothing Method
Smoothing methods include a simple moving average, a triangular moving average, and a least-squares moving average (this method can induce overshoots during the post-smoothing step). The user can also select "None".
Usages
The "multi-length" aspect of technical indicators is something that hasn't been deeply explored yet such indicators can give us information regarding both short-term and long-term information which was the motivation for the creation of the indicator.
The Multi-length Stochastic Average allows us to quantify the price position relative to a multitude of highest/lowest levels.
In the example above the oscillator returns the average of stochastic oscillators with periods ranging from 4 to 20, as well as multiple rolling minimums with periods ranging from 4 to 20. We can see that when the price is equal to all rolling minimums the oscillator is equal to 0, the oscillator would return 100 if the price were equal to all rolling maximums with periods in that same range.
The oscillator can be interpreted like any scaled oscillator and can be used to estimate trend direction as well as trend strength.
Here we only make of use pre-smoothing by using a period 20 simple moving average. The indicator graphical elements such as colors/circles can help us determine potential directions trends might take.
Circles are displayed when the oscillator crosses over/under the 20/80 level. Such conditions offer better timing than waiting for the oscillator to be greater/lower than 50 and are less subjective to noise than simply looking at the direction taken by the oscillator. However, it can suffer from potential retracements in a trend more easily, this is illustrated in the chart above.
Stochastic Oscillator
+ JMA KDJ with RSI OB/OS SignalsSo, what is the KDJ indicator? If you're familiar with the Stochastic, then you'll know that the two oscillating lines are called the 'K' and 'D' lines. Now you know that this is some sort of implementation of the Stochastic. But, then, what is the J? The 'J' is simply the measure of convergence/divergence of the 'K' and 'D' lines, and the 'J' crossing the 'K' and 'D' lines is representational of the 'K' and 'D' lines themselves crossing. Is this an improvement over simply using the Stochastic as it is? Beats me. I don't use the Stochastic. I stumbled upon the KDJ while surfing around the web, and it sounded cool, so I thought I'd look at it. I do like it a bit more as the 'J' line being far overextended from the other two (usually into overbought/sold territory) does give a clear visual representation of the divergence of the 'K' and 'D' lines, which you might not notice otherwise. So, from that perspective I suppose it is nicer.
But let's get to the good stuff now, shall we? What did I do here?
Well, first thing you're wondering is why there are only two lines when based on my explanation (or your previous experience with the indicator) there should be three. I found this script here on TV, by x4random, who took the 'K' and 'D' lines and made an average of them, so there is only one line instead of the two. So, fewer lines on the indicator, but still the same usefulness. It was in older TV code, so I took it to version4 and cleaned up the code slightly. His indicator included the RSI ob/os plots, and I thought this was neat (even though the RSI being os/ob doesn't tell you much except that the trend is strong, and you should be buying pullback or selling rallies) so I kept them in. His indicator was also the most visually appealing one that I saw on here, so that attracted me too. Credit to x4random for the indicator, though.
Aside from code cleanup and adding the usual bells and whistles (which I will get to) the big thing I did here was change is RMA that he was using for the 'K' and 'D' lines to a Jurik MA's, which smooth a lot of the noise of other moving averages while maintaining responsiveness. This eliminates noise (false signals) while keeping the signals of significance. It took me a while to figure out how to substitute the JMA for the RMA, but thanks to QuantTherapy's "Jurik PPO" indicator I was able to nail down the implementation. One thing you might notice is that there is no input to change signal length. I fiddled with this for a time before sticking to using the period, instead of the signal (thus eliminating the use of the signal input altogether), length to generate the 'K' and 'D' calculations. To make any adjustments other than the period length use the Jurik Power input. You can use the phase input as well, but it has much less of an effect.
Everything else I changed is pretty much cosmetic.
Candle coloring with the option to color candles based on either the 'J' line or the 'KD' line.
color.from_gradients with color inputs to make it beautiful (this is probably my best looking indicator, imo)
plots for when crosses occur (really wish there was a way to plot these over candlesticks! If anyone has any suggestions I'd love to see!)
I think that's about it. Alerts of course.
Enjoy!
Below is a comparison chart of my JMA implementation to the original RMA script.
You can see how much smoother the JMA version is. Both of these had the default period of 55 set, and the JMA version is using the default settings, while the original version is using a length of 3 for the signal line.
Ehlers Adaptive Stochastic Indicator V1 [CC]The Adaptive Stochastic Indicator V1 was created by John Ehlers (Rocket Science For Traders pgs 233-234) and this indicator uses the same calculations to find a cycle period that is then used for both the creation of the stochastic indicator but also for the smoothing to create a double smoothed stochastic indicator. Because it is calculated this way, this indicator is more reactive than almost any other stochastic indicator and provides clear buy and sell signals especially when the underlying stock is trending. It is interpreted in the same way as a normal stochastic indicator so great buy signals are when the indicator is below the oversold line and starts to move up and vice versa. 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!
MESA Stochastic Multi LengthJohn Ehler's MESA Stochastic uses super smoothing to give solid signals. This indicator uses the same rules as every other Stochastic indicator so it would be worth looking into if you are not already familiar with reading a Stochastic. There are 4 different lengths displayed to give traders an edge on reading the market. This is a great tool to analyze waves and find tops and bottoms. It gives great pump and dump signals and even helps filter out bad trades when used with other indicators such as Boom Hunter.
Below are some examples of signals to look out for:

Natural Stochastic Indicator [CC]The Natural Stochastic Indicator was created by Jim Sloman and this is another indicator from his Ocean series which I will eventually publish all of them. Big thanks to @altcoinz and @tmac87 for giving me all of the source code in order to publish Jim's life work. This is another momentum indicator but unlike a traditional stochastic indicator, this one doesn't use overbought and oversold levels. Instead it becomes a sell signal when the indicator starts getting lower and vice versa. This takes the classic approach to a stochastic and combines it with the time factor from Jim's Ocean Theory to create this new indicator. I have included strong buy and sell signals as darker colors and normal buy and sell signals as lighter colors. 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!
Multi-TimeFrame SignalsI trade binary options on reversals. I use this as a confluence to prove that my analysis is correct. I use this on smaller time frames given the type of trading I do.
I do not use this as an entry trigger, so you should not blindly enter trades based on this solely . You were warned
This indicator (on default settings) will let you know when the 1 minute, 3 minute, and 5 minute timeframes RSI & Stochastics are all in an overbought or oversold state. It shows this by changing the background color on your chart to red (overbought) or green (oversold).
All of these settings are changeable. #winning
I left this as open-source as I figured out how to code this by using other open-source scripts as reference. I am a programmer that uses other languages.
I only published this script as a request from a close friend.
Stochastic w/ Crossover Alerts (by WJ)NOTE:
// STOCHASTIC CODE TAKEN FROM DEFAULT INDICATOR
// I HAVE ONLY MADE SOME ADJUSTMENTS FOR VISUAL AID
// I MADE THIS FOR MY OWN USE BUT HAVE DECIDED TO PUBLISH AND SHARE IN CASE ANYBODY WANTS TO USE IT
This is the normal default built-in Stochastic indicator which I have added some stuff for visual aid:
Stochastic background turns green when K line crosses D line UPWARDS, D line is below the oversold level, and price is above selected MA
Stochastic background turns red when K line crosses D line DOWNWARDS, D line is above the overbought level, and price is below selected MA
Alert notification on the crossover candle with background colour change when conditions are met (MA filter)
2nd Grade TechniqueThis is comprises of multiple popularly used indicators to help decide on whether to go long or short. This indicator will overlay the MA lines and background colours on your chart.
The heikin-ashi colour will be shown as the background colour. This will help you identify a trend more easily while using bars, candles, hollow candles, etc. When the background is green, it means that it is a green HA and vice versa.
The blue MA line is for showing the short-term trend. The red MA line is for showing the medium-term trend. You can select the moving average flavour of your choice in the settings.
The yellow MA line is the long-term trend that is mainly used as a filter to indicate bullish/bearish trend. The MA type for this filter can be different from the short/mid term MA.
This indicator will also show Stochastic crossovers (GC, DC, BC) on the chart. This will help to always keep your eye on the chart candles.
In the settings, you can also turn on/off bullish/bearish signals.
Rules for bullish signals on this indicator:-
1. MA: Blue > Red > Yellow (FastMA > SlowMA > FilterMA)
2. Stochastic: K > D and both are heading upwards
3. 2nd Green HA
When 2 out of the 3 rules are met, the candle background will be Aqua in colour. When all 3 rules are met, the candle background will be Green .
Rules for bearish signals on this indicator:-
1. MA: Yellow > Red > Blue (FilterMA > SlowMA > FastMA)
2. Stochastic: D > K and both are heading downwards
3. 2nd Red HA
When 2 out of the 3 rules are met, the candle background will be Orange in colour. When all 3 rules are met, the candle background will be Red .
Do note that you can show/hide any of these elements via the settings.

Stochastic & RSIThis script is a simple extension of the Built-In Stochastic RSI that also plots the RSI and prints the values of ATR and ADX of the last bar of the current timeframe to a small table in the corner.
The script can be used to define the entry for a trade when the stochastics crossed and RSI is below or above 0.50 (for going long or short).
OANDA:BTCUSD
I like to use the Stochastics and RSI indicators for pullback strategies, and with this inidcator you dont have to add both indicators to your setup. The ATR can be used to define the value of your stop-loss and the ADX (e.g. > 25) give you a hint for the strength of the current trend.
Stochastic MFIDue to some similarity of the Relative Strength Index(RSI) and Money Flow Index(MFI), I thought of creating a Stoch MFI inspired by the Stoch RSI.
- can be used similar to the Stoch RSI
- useful for pullback during trending markets and for S&R trading during ranging markets

DMI With Crosses (MyNewTrade)Directional Movement Indicator:
+DI and -DI
I changed the color of the bar bars according to the crossed of +DI and -DI . It helps us to have an idea of whether the trend is continuing or not.
+DI crossover to -DI barcolor is Aqua, if not bar color is Red.
It also helps us to find the lowest and highest points of the graph according to the positions of Adx +DI and -DI .
It gives warnings at the lowest and highest points, which helps us to detect the direction of the trend.
Stochastic RSI - DurbtradeDurbtrade Stoch RSI -
1) Stoch RSI
A) The K line can be customized to change color based on vertical direction.
B) The space between K line and D line can be filled with a color depending on whether K line is above or below the D line.
C) There are color-coded, cross-over and cross-under background fills, to signal when the K line crosses the D line.
D) K line is drawn in front of D line (D line is drawn behind K line).
E) Default values : K = 3, D = 4, RSI Length = 14, Stoch Length = 14
2) Horizontal Lines
A) Horizontal lines can be drawn automatically, so you don't have to draw them, and they don't extend past the current bar.
B) There are 11 customizable horizontal lines,
and each line is set to non-customizable increments (zero, 10, 20, 30, 40, fifty, 60, 70, 80, 90, hundred).
C) The 11 lines are divided into 2 groups:
a) 4 PAIRS of lines WITH fill options (10/90, 20/80, 30/70, 40/60... 8 lines total), and
b) 3 INDIVIDUAL lines WITHOUT fill options (zero, fifty, hundred).
D) The 4 fills give you the option to fill the space between each pair with a customizable color and opacity,
regardless of whether the lines themselves are drawn or not.
(all default values are what I feel work best for this indicator...
and initially, only the zero, fifty, and hundred lines are drawn automatically .
You may add the other lines if you choose to, by adjusting the opacity to your liking).
3) Conclusion
A) As with my previous indicators, this one maximizes information, color, discernment, clarity, and customization.
B) It is optimized for your ability to be able to easily customize the indicator according to your preferences...
for use on your own personal television, laptop, or cellular phone screen setup... and on all chart zoom levels and layouts.
C) Please feel free to comment your thoughts, critiques, or suggestions. They are all helpful!
D) Check out my previous pine script indicators if you like this one. They work really well together.
E) I hope that you find this script useful.
F) Enjoy!

Premier Stochastic Oscillator (PSO) [andre_007]This is a improved version of Premier Stochastic Oscillator (PSO), coded by "LazyBear".
"The indicator was first introduced by technical analyst Lee Leibfarth in the August 2008 issue of the journal Technical Analysis of Stocks & Commodities".
Inprovements:
The script was update to version 4 of PineScript.
Added support for diferents times frames.
For example, now it's possible to stay in intraday and at same time see a weekly version of this indicator.
Possibility to customize the thresholds.
Introduction to indicator:
"Stochastic oscillators have long been used to help traders and investors identify areas where trend changes are likely.
Leibfarth developed the PSO to take advantage of a standard stochastic oscillator's strengths while enhancing it to become more reactive to market activity.
The result is a faster indicator that provides earlier signals for potential trend changes".

// STOCH RSI CODE TAKEN FROM DEFAULT INDICATOR
// I HAVE ONLY MADE SOME ADJUSTMENTS FOR VISUAL AID
// I MADE THIS FOR MY OWN USE BUT HAVE DECIDED TO PUBLISH AND SHARE IN CASE ANYBODY WANTS TO USE IT
This is the normal default built-in Stochastic RSI indicator which I have added some stuff for visual aid:
Added middle line (50)
Stoch RSI background turns green when K line crosses D line UPWARDS, K line is below the 50 level, and price is above 200 EMA

[GJ]IFRSITHE INVERSE FISHER TRANSFORM STOCH RSI
HOW IT WORKS
This indicator uses the inverse fisher transform on the stoch RSI for clear buying and selling signals. The stoch rsi is used to limit it in the range of 0 and 100. We subtract 50 from this to get it into the range of -50 to +50 and multiply by .1 to get it in the range of -5 to +5. We then use the 9 period weighted MA to remove some "random" trade signals before we finally use the inverse fisher transform to get the output between -1 and +1
HOW TO USE
Buy when the indicator crosses over –0.5 or crosses over +0.5 if it has not previously crossed over –0.5.
Sell when the indicator crosses under +0.5 or crosses under –0.5 if it has not previously crossed under +0.5.
We can see multiple examples of good buy and sell signals from this indicator on the attached chart for QCOM. Let me know if you have any suggestions or thoughts!
Stochastic RVIBased on the Stochastic RSI but uses RVI (Relative Volatility Index) as source. Another great tool for finding market lows and entry points. This oscillator is also good for finding accurate diversions.
(JS) Triple StochasticSo I ended up adding a ton of stuff to my prior Double Stochastic script which you can see here .
The concept of the Double was to smooth out the existing Stochastic by applying a Stochastic to the existing Stochastic (hence the Double). My concept for the Triple Stochastic is much different. It combines a regular stochastic, stochastic RSI, and the double stochastic to get a smoothed output based on all 3.
Also - since I love being able to see a Squeeze (see my Squeeze Pro indicators - Squeeze Pro 2 & Squeeze Pro Overlays ) I added the Squeeze to the Stochastic (the dots). If you're unfamiliar with how a Squeeze works, or what it is, check out my links for explanation. A quick explanation however is that the Squeeze is an indicator that was invented by John Carter that detects price compression before a big move out of a range. This is done by using Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels, the BB shrink inside the KC. The color of the dots represent the depth of the BB in the KC, white (or black) being the lightest squeeze, red being the standard squeeze, and yellow being the strongest squeeze. Now on to the indicator:
The first thing you'll notice is the options available for the type of Stochastic you'd like to use:
Standard : This is a regular Stochastic
Stochastic RSI : This is the standard Stochastic RSI
Double : This is the Stochastic on top of a Stochastic from the prior version
Triple : This is simply an average of all 3 of the above combined together
(Top indicator shows the Triple Stochastic)
The options "K", "D", and "Smooth" are the settings from a regular Stochastic used to set up the type of Stochastic you choose to use.
Now let's say you're not sure how one type performs compared to another, or you like the quickest momentum change but also like to see the smoothest trend, or you want to use the same types of Stochastic and watch for them to cross like moving averages - for these reasons I added the ability to add a second Stochastic for comparison.
(2nd indicator shows a fast and slow Triple Stochastic together)
Quite obviously, the "K 2", "D 2", and "Smooth 2" are what is used in order to set the parameters for the second Stochastic.
Now another thing I added was the option to replace the regular Stochastic and instead look at the distance between the K and D. By turning off "Use K% and D%" you get to see this in action. To put it simply, a cross above zero would indicate a positive Stochastic crossover, and a cross below zero would represent the opposite. There's also an option titled "SMA Length using Difference" which, to smooth this out a bit, allows you to apply a moving average to the distance. By setting it at 1 you'd see the actual distance between K and D.
(3rd indicator shows the K and D distance used as a plot)
Another thing I wanted to do was add a different type of background that wasn't based on the indicator itself. I decided to use ADX & DMI which is a great way to determine the trend. When you select "ADX/DMI BG" the BG colors will change from being based on the indicator to being based on ADX and DMI.
(The 3rd indicator also shows the ADX/DMI BG being used).
And now finally the last feature I decided to add takes us back to the Squeeze. Essentially it is just the Stochastic shown through the lens of Squeeze momentum, as I ended up plugging the Stochastic output into the Squeeze momentum formula to create an oscillator. By selecting "Use Oscillator" you will see this in action as well.
(Bottom indicator shows the oscillator addition)
Stochastic(4,3,2) Spread By Rajv1: This indicator plots a spread of %K - %D of the stochastic(4,3,2).
STOCHASTIC+Stochastic Oscillators are used to determine Overbought and Oversold Market conditions. This Stoch is set to a quicker Length then normal with an RSI that changes color depending on Momentum. When RSI is Overbought you well get a red shadow to indicate the market is setting up for a sell. When the RSI is Oversold you will get a green shadow to indicate the market is setting up for a buy
FUERSTUses Normalized Price Oscillator and Stochastics and combines them as an ADX weighted measure.
During low trend intensity Stochastics gets higher weighted than Price Oscillator, and vice-versa in times of high trend-intensity.
Stochastic Structure AnalyzerA momentum indicator that uses the highest and lowest values for price in three different lookback lengths to find the performance relative to three timeframes.
- Stochastic can be used for buy and sell signals as usual.
- The bars at the back represent the stochastic value of the OBV based structure calculation.
- The color of the stochastic line is a preliminary indicator of an up move.
- The fill color between the stochastic lines indicate the trend strength,
How to use: I suggest combining this with a higher timeframe to buy when the both stochastics are crossing below 20 line. And sell when one of the stochastics crosses-down.
This is the stochastic version of the structure analyzer().
