Below are tables summarizing the oscillators and moving averages you can track:
Oscillators
| Indicator | Code | Description |
| Relative Strength Index (14) | RSI | The Relative Strength Index momentum oscillator gauges price movement strength, helping identify overbought or oversold markets. |
| Stochastic Oscillator (14, 1, 3) | STOCH | Stochastic %K predicts price turning points by comparing the current price relative to the high-low range over a specific period. |
| Commodity Channel Index (20) | CCI | Commodity Channel Index measures an asset’s variation from its statistical mean, helping to identify new trends or warn of extreme conditions. |
| Average Directional Index (14) | ADI | Average Directional Index quantifies trend strength regardless of the trend direction by combining two directional indicators, the positive (+DI) and negative (-DI) to assess how strong the current trend is compared to past trends. |
| Momentum (10) | ADX | Momentum indicator measures the speed at which an asset’s price is changing, comparing the current closing price to previous closing prices to assess the velocity of price movements. |
| Moving Average Convergence Divergence (12, 26) | MACD | The Moving Average Convergence Divergence is a momentum indicator that reveals changes in a price trend’s strength, direction, momentum, and duration. |
| Stochastic RSI (14) | STOCH RSI | Stochastic RSI Fast provides faster signals by using shorter time frames, making it ideal for identifying overbought and oversold conditions in quicker-moving markets. |
| Williams Percentage Range (14) | %R | Williams Percentage Range is a momentum indicator that measures overbought and oversold markets by comparing an asset’s closing price to the high-low range over a period |
Moving averages
| Indicator | Code | Description |
| Simple Moving Average (10, 20, 30, 50, 100, 200) | SMA | The Simple Moving Average is a smoothing method used to average price data over a certain period, helping to identify trends and potential support or resistance levels. |
| Exponential Moving Average (10, 20, 30, 50, 100, 200) | EMA | An Exponential Moving Average indicator calculates the average price of a market over a certain period. Unlike the Simple Moving Average, which gives all prices equal weight, EMA prioritizes recent prices, making it more responsive to recent price movements. |
| Hull Moving Average (9) | HMA | Hull Moving Average aims to reduce lag time by combining the weighted moving average with the square root of the period, making it highly responsive to shifts in the price movement. |
| Volume Weighted Moving Average (20) | VWMA | Volume Weighted Moving Average is a smoothing indicator that incorporates both price and volume to reflect the average price of an asset, weighted by its trading volume over a specific period. |
