Volatility-Adjusted Stochastic Oscillator for Overbought and Oversold Signals

Summary

The DELOREAN sto SC-SV v.2.0 is described as a stochastic-style oscillator intended for volatile instruments, with Bitcoin and DAX40 given as examples. It first locates the close within a rolling high-low range, smooths that reading into K and D lines, then derives a more reactive J line from their difference. The J line is multiplied by a volatility factor formed from ATR relative to its own exponential average, and an additional EMA of adjusted J is shown as a possible crossover reference. Levels at 0, 20, 50, 80, and 100 provide context for extreme and neutral readings.

The text proposes using the adjusted oscillator for overbought and oversold assessment and watching its crossovers with the EMA for possible reversals. It supplies formulas and example parameter settings, but no backtest, signal rules, or evidence of predictive performance. The volatility multiplier can move readings beyond the usual 0–100 range, so the fixed reference bands may not retain their ordinary stochastic interpretation. Signals should be independently evaluated for the market and timeframe used.

Key ideas

• The base reading measures the close relative to the rolling high-low range.
• Smoothed K and D lines feed a J line designed to respond more strongly to their divergence.
• The J line is scaled by the ratio of ATR to its exponential average to adjust for volatility.
• An EMA of adjusted J and fixed reference bands are presented as interpretation aids.
• The document gives no empirical evidence that the suggested signals predict reversals.
