- The strategy we will be implementing today is Stochastic
- The stochastic oscillator is a popular technical indicator for generating overbought and oversold signals
- The stochastic oscillator is a momentum indicator that compares a particular stock’s closing price to a range of its prices over a certain period of time. The oscillator’s sensitivity to market movements can be reduced by adjusting for this period or by taking a moving average.
- The stochastic oscillator measures the price momentum to identify trends and predict reversals.
Stochastic Positive Crossover
- Stochastic Positive crossover is a bullish cross
- When the stochastic lines are above 80, the indicator signals that the instrument is overbought.
- The Stochastic Oscillator measures the current price on a scale of 0 to 100, with readings above 80 indicating the stocks are overbought and readings below 20 indicating it is oversold.
- Let’s look at an example in the chart below (TATAMOTORS a daily time frame)
