CronexAO: Applying MACD to Awesome Oscillator Values
Summary
CronexAO is described as a MACD-style indicator that uses Awesome Oscillator values in place of prices as its input series. Its output is displayed as a colored cloud, combining the structure of MACD with a transformed momentum series. This changes the data being smoothed and compared: the indicator tracks moving-average relationships in the Awesome Oscillator rather than directly in price.
The document identifies an external smoothing library required by the implementation and points to a figure, but it provides no calculation parameters, trading rules, chart interpretation, or empirical results. It therefore explains the indicator’s basic construction, not how to trade it or whether it improves on either underlying indicator. Readers would need implementation details and testing across instruments and market conditions before drawing conclusions about signal usefulness.
Key ideas
- CronexAO applies MACD calculations to a series of Awesome Oscillator values instead of prices.
- The indicator is displayed as a colored cloud.
- Its implementation depends on a separate smoothing library.
- The description provides no trading rules or evidence about performance.
