A Schaff Trend Cycle Indicator Built from Two Williams Percent Range Oscillators

Article MQL5 code base

Summary

ColorSchaffWPRTrendCycle is described as a Schaff Trend Cycle indicator built from the difference between two Williams Percent Range oscillators with different lookback periods. The document identifies the indicator’s author but gives no formula details, parameter values, signal thresholds, or explanation of how the plotted colors should be interpreted. It also includes a figure reference, but no further analysis of what the chart shows.

There are no backtest results, trading rules, or comparisons with other indicators, so the material establishes only the indicator’s stated construction. A researcher would need the original indicator implementation or a fuller specification to reproduce its calculations and assess whether it adds information beyond its component oscillators. The document does not show evidence that the indicator predicts returns or provides useful entry and exit signals.

Key ideas

  • The indicator is based on the difference between two Williams Percent Range oscillators.
  • The two oscillators use different periods.
  • The document does not provide parameter values, signal rules, or a detailed formula.
  • It reports no backtest or evidence of predictive performance.
