Summary
The calculation of a momentum oscillator
Remarks
Momentum measures the rate of price change over time and provides a leading indicator of changes in trend. It gives signals before price action happens. The momentum oscillator is unbounded i.e. there is no maximum or minimum value. It is calculated as the closing price now minus the closing price n periods ago.
Syntax
public interface MomentumOscillator
