Chande Momentum Oscillator Trading Technical Analysis & Signals
Created by Tushar Chandes
Chande Momentum Oscillator measures momentum of a currency pair.
This Indicator uses a scale ranging between +100 and -100 thus allowing the trader to clearly see changes in net momentum using the 0 level mark as a balance point.
Calculation
Chande momentum uses data for both up days & down days in the numerator, thereby directly measuring momentum.
The calculations are performed on unsmoothed data. This allows for short-term extreme market movements to be less hidden. However, smoothing can still be applied to the Oscillator.
