Stochastic and Accelerator Oscillator Signals with Staggered Profit Targets
Summary
The OzFx description combines the Stochastic Oscillator with the Accelerator Oscillator to generate entry signals. A buy requires the Stochastic reading on the latest completed bar to exceed a chosen level, while the Accelerator reading rises from below zero to above zero. A sell requires the Stochastic reading to fall below that level as the Accelerator reading drops from above zero to below zero. The stated conditions also limit entries to cases where no position of the same direction is already counted.
On a signal, the method opens five equal-sized positions. The first has no stop loss or take profit; the remaining positions share a stop-loss setting and use progressively larger take-profit distances based on an input step. The document mentions daily-period testing across symbols but gives no results, sample details, exit handling for the first position, or risk analysis. It therefore describes entry and order structure without evidence that the approach is profitable or robust.
Key ideas
- A buy signal combines a Stochastic reading above its threshold with an Accelerator Oscillator crossing from negative to positive.
- A sell signal combines a Stochastic reading below its threshold with an Accelerator Oscillator crossing from positive to negative.
- Signals are gated by whether positions in the same direction are already counted.
- Each signal opens five equal-sized positions with differing target treatment.
- The description mentions daily testing across symbols but supplies no results or robustness analysis.
