Special Slow Stochastic Adds a Smoothed Signal Line

Article MQL5 code base

Summary

The Special Slow Stochastic (SSS) is a variation of the standard Stochastic oscillator. It retains the usual %K period, %D period, and slowing settings, then adds a further smoothing period applied to the Stochastic signal line. The indicator also exposes overbought and oversold levels for interpreting oscillator readings.

The page defines the indicator’s inputs but does not explain how to calculate the extra smoothing, specify entry or exit rules, or provide examples or performance evidence. It therefore offers a concise description of an oscillator variant rather than a tested trading strategy; users would need additional guidance to decide how its readings should inform trades.

Key ideas

  • SSS extends the standard Stochastic with another smoothed line based on its signal line.
  • Its inputs include the standard %K, %D, and slowing periods.
  • A separate period controls the additional smoothing.
  • Overbought and oversold thresholds are configurable, but no trading rules or results are provided.
