PA Oscillator: Histogram of MACD Change Speed

Summary

The PA Oscillator is a technical indicator that represents how quickly the MACD indicator is changing. It displays the result as a two-color histogram, allowing users to distinguish changes in the direction or character of that movement visually. The document identifies the indicator's dependence on a smoothing library for intermediate calculations, but does not explain its precise calculation, parameter choices, or interpretation rules.

The page offers only a brief description and refers to a separate article for details on the smoothing classes. It includes no chart evidence, trading rules, backtest, or performance results. Traders would need to inspect the implementation and evaluate the indicator against their own data before using it; a histogram reading by itself does not establish a profitable signal.

Key ideas

• The indicator visualizes the speed of change in MACD.\nIt presents readings as a two-color histogram.\nIts implementation relies on smoothing classes for intermediate calculations.\nThe document provides no signal rules or evidence of trading performance.
