StrangeIndicator: Smoothed Oscillator with Breakout and Direction Colors
Summary
StrangeIndicator is a smoothed oscillator displayed in a symmetric range from -50 to +50. Its histogram can use one of two coloring approaches: highlighting breaks of overbought and oversold levels, or showing changes in the indicator’s direction. The color scheme is intended to make those conditions easier to read in the histogram. The document also notes that the indicator relies on a smoothing library for its intermediate calculations.
The description provides no trading rules, parameter values, performance results, or evidence that either coloring approach improves decisions. It explains how the display can represent threshold breaks or directional changes, but does not specify the levels used or how signals should be interpreted. Traders would need to inspect the implementation and evaluate the indicator on their own data before treating its visual cues as actionable.
Key ideas
- The oscillator is smoothed and displayed on a symmetric scale from -50 to +50.
- Histogram colors can highlight overbought or oversold level breaks.
- An alternative coloring mode shows changes in the oscillator’s direction.
- The description offers no performance evidence or complete trading rules.
