Exhaustion Table [SpiritualHealer117]A simple indicator in a table format, is effective for determining when an individual stock or cryptocurrency is oversold or overbought.
Using the indicator
In the column "2σ" , up arrows indicate that the asset is very overbought , down arrows indicate that an asset is very oversold , and an equals sign indicates that the indicator is neutral.
In the column "σ" , up arrows indicate that the asset is overbought , down arrows indicate that an asset is oversold , and an equals sign indicates that the indicator is neutral.
What indicator is
The indicator shows the exhaustion (percentage gap between the closing price and a moving average) at 5 given lengths, 15, 30, 50, 100, and 300. It compares that to two thresholds for exhaustion: one standard deviation out and one two standard deviations out.
Ppo
T3 PPO [Loxx]T3 PPO is a percentage price oscillator indicator using T3 moving average. This indicator is used to spot reversals. Dark red is upward price exhaustion, dark green is downward price exhaustion.
What is Percentage Price Oscillator (PPO)?
The percentage price oscillator (PPO) is a technical momentum indicator that shows the relationship between two moving averages in percentage terms. The moving averages are a 26-period and 12-period exponential moving average (EMA).
The PPO is used to compare asset performance and volatility, spot divergence that could lead to price reversals, generate trade signals, and help confirm trend direction.

Introduction
"Digital filtering includes the process of smoothing, predicting, differentiating, integrating, separation of signals, and removal of noise from a signal. Thus many people who do such things are actually using digital filters without realizing that they are; being unacquainted with the theory, they neither understand what they have done nor the possibilities of what they might have done."
This quote from R. W. Hamming applies to the vast majority of indicators in technical analysis . Moving averages, be they simple, weighted, or exponential, are lowpass filters; low frequency components in the signal pass through with little attenuation, while high frequencies are severely reduced.
"Oscillator" type indicators (such as MACD , Momentum, Relative Strength Index ) are another type of digital filter called a differentiator.
Tushar Chande has observed that many popular oscillators are highly correlated, which is sensible because they are trying to measure the rate of change of the underlying time series, i.e., are trying to be the first and second derivatives we all learned about in Calculus.
We use moving averages (lowpass filters) in technical analysis to remove the random noise from a time series, to discern the underlying trend or to determine prices at which we will take action. A perfect moving average would have two attributes:
It would be smooth, not sensitive to random noise in the underlying time series. Another way of saying this is that its derivative would not spuriously alternate between positive and negative values.
It would not lag behind the time series it is computed from. Lag, of course, produces late buy or sell signals that kill profits.
The only way one can compute a perfect moving average is to have knowledge of the future, and if we had that, we would buy one lottery ticket a week rather than trade!
Having said this, we can still improve on the conventional simple, weighted, or exponential moving averages. Here's how:
Two Interesting Moving Averages
We will examine two benchmark moving averages based on Linear Regression analysis.
In both cases, a Linear Regression line of length n is fitted to price data.
I call the first moving average ILRS, which stands for Integral of Linear Regression Slope. One simply integrates the slope of a linear regression line as it is successively fitted in a moving window of length n across the data, with the constant of integration being a simple moving average of the first n points. Put another way, the derivative of ILRS is the linear regression slope. Note that ILRS is not the same as a SMA ( simple moving average ) of length n, which is actually the midpoint of the linear regression line as it moves across the data.
We can measure the lag of moving averages with respect to a linear trend by computing how they behave when the input is a line with unit slope. Both SMA (n) and ILRS(n) have lag of n/2, but ILRS is much smoother than SMA .
Our second benchmark moving average is well known, called EPMA or End Point Moving Average. It is the endpoint of the linear regression line of length n as it is fitted across the data. EPMA hugs the data more closely than a simple or exponential moving average of the same length. The price we pay for this is that it is much noisier (less smooth) than ILRS, and it also has the annoying property that it overshoots the data when linear trends are present.
However, EPMA has a lag of 0 with respect to linear input! This makes sense because a linear regression line will fit linear input perfectly, and the endpoint of the LR line will be on the input line.
These two moving averages frame the tradeoffs that we are facing. On one extreme we have ILRS, which is very smooth and has considerable phase lag. EPMA has 0 phase lag, but is too noisy and overshoots. We would like to construct a better moving average which is as smooth as ILRS, but runs closer to where EPMA lies, without the overshoot.
A easy way to attempt this is to split the difference, i.e. use (ILRS(n)+EPMA(n))/2. This will give us a moving average (call it IE /2) which runs in between the two, has phase lag of n/4 but still inherits considerable noise from EPMA. IE /2 is inspirational, however. Can we build something that is comparable, but smoother? Figure 1 shows ILRS, EPMA, and IE /2.
Filter Techniques
Any thoughtful student of filter theory (or resolute experimenter) will have noticed that you can improve the smoothness of a filter by running it through itself multiple times, at the cost of increasing phase lag.
There is a complementary technique (called twicing by J.W. Tukey) which can be used to improve phase lag. If L stands for the operation of running data through a low pass filter, then twicing can be described by:
L' = L(time series) + L(time series - L(time series))
That is, we add a moving average of the difference between the input and the moving average to the moving average. This is algebraically equivalent to:
2L-L(L)
This is the Double Exponential Moving Average or DEMA , popularized by Patrick Mulloy in TASAC (January/February 1994).
In our taxonomy, DEMA has some phase lag (although it exponentially approaches 0) and is somewhat noisy, comparable to IE /2 indicator.
We will use these two techniques to construct our better moving average, after we explore the first one a little more closely.
Fixing Overshoot
An n-day EMA has smoothing constant alpha=2/(n+1) and a lag of (n-1)/2.
Thus EMA (3) has lag 1, and EMA (11) has lag 5. Figure 2 shows that, if I am willing to incur 5 days of lag, I get a smoother moving average if I run EMA (3) through itself 5 times than if I just take EMA (11) once.
This suggests that if EPMA and DEMA have 0 or low lag, why not run fast versions (eg DEMA (3)) through themselves many times to achieve a smooth result? The problem is that multiple runs though these filters increase their tendency to overshoot the data, giving an unusable result. This is because the amplitude response of DEMA and EPMA is greater than 1 at certain frequencies, giving a gain of much greater than 1 at these frequencies when run though themselves multiple times. Figure 3 shows DEMA (7) and EPMA(7) run through themselves 3 times. DEMA^3 has serious overshoot, and EPMA^3 is terrible.
The solution to the overshoot problem is to recall what we are doing with twicing:
DEMA (n) = EMA (n) + EMA (time series - EMA (n))
The second term is adding, in effect, a smooth version of the derivative to the EMA to achieve DEMA . The derivative term determines how hot the moving average's response to linear trends will be. We need to simply turn down the volume to achieve our basic building block:
EMA (n) + EMA (time series - EMA (n))*.7;
This is algebraically the same as:
EMA (n)*1.7-EMA( EMA (n))*.7;
I have chosen .7 as my volume factor, but the general formula (which I call "Generalized Dema") is:
GD (n,v) = EMA (n)*(1+v)-EMA( EMA (n))*v,
Where v ranges between 0 and 1. When v=0, GD is just an EMA , and when v=1, GD is DEMA . In between, GD is a cooler DEMA . By using a value for v less than 1 (I like .7), we cure the multiple DEMA overshoot problem, at the cost of accepting some additional phase delay. Now we can run GD through itself multiple times to define a new, smoother moving average T3 that does not overshoot the data:
T3(n) = GD ( GD ( GD (n)))
In filter theory parlance, T3 is a six-pole non-linear Kalman filter. Kalman filters are ones which use the error (in this case (time series - EMA (n)) to correct themselves. In Technical Analysis , these are called Adaptive Moving Averages; they track the time series more aggressively when it is making large moves.
PPO w/ Discontinued Signal Lines [Loxx]PPO w/ Discontinued Signal Lines is a Percentage Price Oscillator with some upgrades. This indicator has 33 source types and 35+ moving average types as well as Discontinued Signal Lines and divergences. These additions reduce noise and increase hit rate.
What is the Price Percentage Oscillator?
The percentage price oscillator (PPO) is a technical momentum indicator that shows the relationship between two moving averages in percentage terms. The moving averages are a 26-period and 12-period exponential moving average (EMA).
The PPO is used to compare asset performance and volatility, spot divergence that could lead to price reversals, generate trade signals, and help confirm trend direction.

MACD-VWhat is it?
The MACD-V indicator is the normal version of the MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) indicator but normalized for volatility. It is normalized for volatility in order to compare momentum values across time and across tickers which the normal MACD indicator fails to do.
Formula
The formula for the MACD-V is as follows
MACD Line = [ / ATR(26)] * 100
Signal Line = EMA(9,MACD)
Histogram = MACD Line - Signal Line
How to Use
The MACD-V indicator is used to analyze normalized trends. If the MACD line is above 150, it is considered overbought. If the MACD line is below -150, it is considered oversold. Crossovers of the MACD line and the signal line are considered to be points of trend changes as well.

MTF MACD (PPO) [TANHEF]Mult-Timeframe Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) and Percentage Price Oscillator (PPO) indicator that allows for viewing of 1 to 5 different Timeframes.
Brief Summary
The primary benefit of multi-timeframe indicators is getting better entries and confirmation from viewing multiple time frames at once, which can often get overlooked.
MACD shouldn't be only used by itself, it is a lot more consistent when applied in the same direction as the trend as well as multiple other things including support, resistance, and volume improve the outcomes of the MACD results.
Personally, I look for good entries on higher and lower time frames (multiple timeframes must agree with the buying or selling). For example, if a higher timeframe looks like a good long entry (MACD line is crossing up and below the zero line), then the lower timeframes should be checked to ensure they are not oversold or overextended (the MACD line must be low or below the zero), once the lower and higher timeframes are in agreeance an entry can be made.
What is Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD)?
Moving average convergence divergence (MACD) is a trend-following momentum indicator that shows the relationship between two moving averages of the price. The MACD is calculated by subtracting the 26-period exponential moving average (EMA) from the 12-period EMA.
What is the Percentage Price Oscillator (PPO)?
The PPO is identical to the MACD indicator, except the PPO measures percentage difference between two EMAs, while the MACD measures absolute (or dollar) difference. The PPO has the advantage of being comparable to other assets with different prices, whereas MACD readings are not comparable. For example, regardless of the asset's price, a PPO result of 10 means the short-term average is 10% above the long-term average.
A signal line can be displayed on Timeframe, including:
- MACD & Signal Line crosses (Green when MACD above Signal Line and Red when MACD below Signal Line)
- Histogram Direction (fast and slow EMA gap)
- SuperTrend for identifying trend direction (green for uptrend, red for downtrend)
- EMA Trend for identifying trend direction (above EMA = up trend and green, below EMA = down trend and red)
Cross Dots and Potential cross dots
- Green Dot, is displayed when the MACD crosses the Signal Line
- Red Dot, is displayed when the MACD crosses the Signal Line
- Yellow Dot. Potential cross up (green dot) on next bar. Displayed when if the same distance a MACD moves on a bar is applied to the next bar will cause a MACD and Signal Line Cross. This is calculated by checking if the value change of one bar is added to the current MACD value would lead to a cross on the next bar, the it is a potential up dot.
- Purple Dot. Potential cross down (red dot) on next bar. Displayed when if the same distance a MACD moves on a bar is applied to the next bar will cause a MACD and Signal Line Cross. This is calculated by checking if the value change of one bar is added to the current MACD value would lead to a cross on the next bar, the it is a potential down dot.
Best Fit Settings
- Can be applied to the MACD, Signal Line, and Histogram to re-scale (stretch) to fit them within the space of the +2 and -2 range that each timeframe is provided on this indicator.
- The lookback distance value is used to lookback a certain distance to ensure everything scaled to fit well.
Labels are displayed on the right of the indicators, including:
- a label identifying 'line indicator' is currently being displayed
- the Timeframe corresponding to each MACD or PPO indicator
- the MACD or PPO of each Timeframe
Improved Percent Price Oscillator w/ Colored Candles[C2Trends]The Percent Price Oscillator(PPO) is a momentum oscillator that measures the difference between two moving averages as a percentage of the larger moving average. Similar to the Moving Average Convergence/Divergence(MACD), the PPO is comprised of a signal line, a histogram and a centerline. Signals are generated with signal line crossovers, centerline crossovers, and divergences. Because these signals are no different than those associated with MACD, this indicator can be read exactly as the MACD is read. The main differences between the PPO and MACD are: 1) PPO readings are not subject to the price level of the security. 2) PPO readings for different securities can be compared, even when there are large differences in the price. MACD readings for different securities cannot be compared when there are large differences in price.
PPO Calculations:
Percentage Price Oscillator(PPO): {(12-day EMA - 26-day EMA )/26-day EMA} x 100
Signal Line: 9-day EMA of PPO
PPO Histogram: PPO - Signal Line
iPPO includes everything from standard PPO plus:
1)Plots for PPO/Signal line crosses.
2)Plots for PPO/0 level crosses.
3)PPO/Signal line gap color fill.
4)PPO/0 level gap color fill.
4)Background fill for PPO/Signal line crosses.
5)Background fill for PPO/0 level crosses.
6)Price candles colored based on PPO indicator readings.
7)All plots, lines and fill colors can be turned on/off individually from the 'Input' tab of the iPPO indicator settings menu.
Indicator Notes:
1) When the green PPO line is above the 0 level, intermediate to long-term price momentum can be considered bullish(begins w/yellow cross, green background).
2) When the green PPO line is below the 0 level, intermeidate to long-term price momentum can be considered bearish(begins w/red cross, purple background).
3) Green PPO line above purple Signal line + both lines rising + both lines above 0 level = bullish short-term price momentum(begins w/green dot above 0 level, green highlight).
4) Green PPO line below purple Signal line + both lines falling + both lines above 0 level = loss of short-term bullish price momentum(begins w/purple dot above 0 level, purple highlight).
5) Green PPO line below purple Signal line + both lines falling + both lines below 0 level = bearish short-term price momentum(begins w/purple dot below 0 level, purple highlight).
6) Green PPO line above purple Signal line + both lines rising + both lines below 0 level = loss of short-term bearish price momentum(begins w/green dot below 0 level, green highlight).
7) Price candles are colored lime when the PPO line is above the Signal line and both lines are above the 0 level.
8) Price candles are colored green when the PPO line is below the Signal line and both lines are above the 0 level.
9) Price candles are colored fuschia when the PPO line is below the Signal line and both lines are below the 0 level.
10) Price candles are colored purple when the PPO line is above the Signal line and both lines are below the 0 level.
11) Price candles are colored gray when the green PPO line is within a set % of the 0 level. This value can be set manually in the indicator settings. The default value is 0.25% to ensure
smooth candle color transition between timeframes, charts, sectors and markets. Adjust value up or down if gray candles are absent or too abundant. Gray candles should mostly only appear
during periods of price consolidation(flat/sideways price movement), or just before a significant move up or down in price.
Customizable Percentage Price Oscillator (PPO)The PPO is basically the MACD but in percentage terms. This is better for comparing momentum across different securities.
This script is a standard PPO but with many options for customization. You can set the moving average type of the signal and the oscillator lines separately. You can also weight any moving average of the PPO by volume.
Supported Types of MA:
SMA
EMA
ALMA
HMA
WMA
Personally, I believe weighting by volume is helpful across markets but especially helpful for equities. I like to use 3,10,16 settings similar to Linda Raschke but with EMA instead of SMA. This indicator is especially useful for signaling trend continuation and generating exit signals. For entries, I believe this indicator should not be blindly followed and works better when combined with a trend or price action signal.
If there are requests for more types of moving average to be used with the PPO, I would be down to implement them, but I believe most moving averages are pretty similar.
BOSCILLATOR. A BOSS OSCILLATORI would like to first say I do not the indicator pieces. Would like to personally give thanks and credit to @MarkBench for coding this indicator and helping to get my vision for this system finally able to be published and used by anyone. I would also like the thank @lazy bear and @ChrisMoody for their bringing the Firefly oscillator and the SCHAFF TREND and the PPO price percentage oscillator to trading view. and @scilentor for his version of Godmode with LSMA . Thanks to @Shizaru for bringing Frama moving average (which we have adopted into the PPO as one of the base selections for the first time, as well as the ALMA ). Divergences have also been added. and components of the firefly have been removed such as the histogram. I have added two oscillators in the picture. The bottom is the standard settings. The above is how I prefer mine to look after tweaking the settings.
Before I get into explaining how its used. I want to say all the indicators are open and none privately owned or at least owned by indivduals who brought them to trading view. Any due permission is granted at my disclocsure. I also want to say this is not your typical mashup of indicators as the is a very clear way to view and use this specifically. Also I want to say original tools from their original scripts are also improved. For example the PPO being used we have added the FRAMA and ALMA moving average basis option which it did not have before. And now everything has clear divergences and some other minor changers. but here are the rules and examples.
THE BOSCILLATOR - A MULTI-LEVEL CONFLUENCE/CONFIRMATION FILTER VISUALIZATION
Some shorthand
(Main oscillator - firefly)
(background wave thing - PPO )
(the red vertical up and down line with red and green dots - STC )
(the blue, yellow and red dots - warning dots)
WHO IS THIS INDICATOR FOR? - This indicator itself is not meant to be a signal giver to buy or sell right now even though it could be and some of the original scripts are used as such. This indicator is actually meant to be a VISUAL CONFIRMATION & FILTER for trades taken in other methods outside of this indicator. What are some of those methods that may benefit from having this? Pivot point traders, FIB traders, Bollinger band traders, Moving average traders.. just to name a few. This indicator itself is meant to in a quick glance allow the trade to see the condition of many different elements outside of the main price and chart, and determine if that trade looks like it has too much risk, or if that trade looks suitable. It also provides a series of confirmations that could be used for adding to a position at different levels at the trade's discretion.
OPTIMAL CONDITIONS FOR CONSIDERING A SHORT = The PPO is orange/red + the STC is at the TOP + the Firefly is above the midline. The warning dots are being printed at the top. There is regular or hidden bearish divergence present.
OPTIMAL CONDITIONS FOR CONSIDERING A LONG = The PPO is light/dark green + the STC is at the BOTTOM + the Firefly is below the midline. The warning dots are being printed at the bottom. There is regular or hidden bullish divergence present.
Triggers for scaling/adding into your position = Keeping in mind that this oscillator on its own is not meant to be the sole reason for taking a trade, here are some triggers you will see for getting into position (preferably with the optimal conditions being met) The firefly flips from a green line into a red slide and vise versa. The firefly crosses the midline up or down. The STC begins going up/down and triggers a green or red dot while crossing one of the levels at 20 or 80. The warning dots being made begin to be printed lower/higher than the dot before last. The PPO shift from one color to the next in the favored direction of the trade you wish to make.
Signs for taking profit and protecting your trade = The Dots begin to print, the PPO changes colors at the top or bottom. the STC arrived are the top.
FILTER SITUATIONS TO AVOID TRADES = Wise to not take a trade if the PPO and the firefly do not agree. For example - if the PPO is showing green yet the firefly is still red may be an indication that it is getting a bit late for you to enter the trade. Same with opposing divergences and warning dots contradicting the trade you are looking at. The STC being already on the bottom or top may be a small indication that trade may already have been a little too ripe, but on its own is not always the case.
When selecting the PPO settings and moving average you are going to want it to be in favor of what you are trying to accomplish.IF you are one low time frames and trying to swing or scalp trade... chances are you want a reactive MA setting that iss responsive. Iwould recommend the HULL, ALMA, TEMA DEMA. For the Higher time frame the EMA or the T3 WDma can be wuite patient and helpful for a constant reminder of caution
Some notes - for the swing and scalp trading... in my experience the PPO moving average basis sees more responsive changes with the FRAMA , ALMA , HULL settings. for entering a trade, at least a couple of your triggers being present increases the success rate by a lot.
This chart illustrates the usefullness of having a Zero lag function for the firefly. The firefly should not be taken for signals or trades itself. However it is the most precise finder of divergences within the system. It is aways good to flip on and off zero lag just to take a quick look for divergences you might have mixed.
In this chart illustrates the general visual look and order of events to guide you along your way. Starts with the PPO turning green or red or orange which is potentially time to get out of your current trade. Then it switched colors when reversal begins and that is when you want to at the same time see the STC, the firefly, and lower caution dots coming in around the same area (highlighted in blue squares). Now near the end you see a red box. This is a filter aspect. The PPO is green, yet the others are saying down/short. This does not mean it must be a long, however it is great warning to maybe avoid getting to bearish for the downside in that time. You want the PPO and line up with the others and it should be visually apparent that they all want to go the same way.
Here is a list of some key elements (before changes this script made) of parts this oscillator includes. My original publication of my oscillation setup was blocked by the mods here.. this one however includes a large variety of items that have been altered from their original formats and a well-explained trading system to use it with.

Trend WaveHello Traders!
You know, I can sill remember the first time I started tinkering with Pinescript. As I had no prior programming experience, I learned by experimenting with other open-source scripts on TradingViews Marketplace. Tearing apart and combining interesting scripts to see what the output would be. @ChrisMoody was a huge source of inspiration for learning, and I wanted to thank him, as well as @TheLark for the concept behind this script.
The Trend Wave is based on @ChrisMoody's PPO-PercentileRank-Mkt-Tops-Bottoms , which also happens to be based on @TheLark's TheLark-Laguerre-PPO/ .
Within my experimentation, I found that if I isolate the ppoT & ppoB variables and plot them calculated from extremely small decimals, you can get an extremely fast reacting, mirroring trend detector.
Within the script, you have the ability to plot the background colors based on trend to make it easier to see where crossovers occured, as well as a Mirror Input to view the mirrored version of the script.

PPO Divergence and Aggregate Signal ComboThis is a further development of the last two posts on aggregated signal generation. It shows how to implement the idea in conjunction with another indicator. In this case general rule for long and short entry: the aggregated curve (gray) must cross the mid-line. Colored columns serve as an early warning. Settings were tested with EURUSD in 5m, 30m and 1H TFs.
Price Percentage Divergence IndicatorThis is a price percentage divergence ( PPO ) indicator. It may as well be called a turning points indicator.)
Momentum TraderThis study combines two versatile momentum indicators :
Chande Momentum Oscillator:
-Measures trend strength, with higher absolute values meaning greater strength.
-Also tracks divergence. When price increases, but is not accompanied by an increase in Chande Momentum Oscillator values, it signifies bearish divergence and a reversal is likely to follow.
-Shown as the teal and pink histogram.
Percentage Price Oscillator:
-Similar to the MACD, except that it expresses the difference between the two moving averages in terms of a percentage. This makes it a little easier to visualize.
-PPO values greater than zero indicate an uptrend, as that means the fast EMA is greater than the slow (and vice versa).
Entry and Exit Conditions:
Enter When:
1) Chande Momentum crosses over zero from negative to positive territory. AND
2) It has been less than 3 bars since Chande Momentum was less than the lower green line. AND
3) Chande Momentum is rising(positive slope).
Exit When:
1) Chande Momentum is greater than the upper line. AND
2) It has been less than 6 bars since the PPO value was greater than the upper bound. AND
3) PPO is less than 5 (meaning the difference between the two EMA's is less than 5%). AND
4)PPO has a negative slope.
This study comes with alert conditions for long entries and exits.

Percentage Price Oscillator (PPO)The Percentage Price Oscillator (PPO) is a momentum oscillator that measures the difference between two moving averages as a percentage of the larger moving average. As with its cousin, MACD, the Percentage Price Oscillator is shown with a signal line, a histogram and a centerline. Signals are generated with signal line crossovers, centerline crossovers, and divergences. First, PPO readings are not subject to the price level of the security. Second, PPO readings for different securities can be compared, even when there are large differences in the price.
Calculations
PPO: {(12-day EMA - 26-day EMA)/26-day EMA} x 100
Signal Line: 9-day EMA of PPO
PPO Histogram: PPO - Signal Line
While MACD measures the absolute difference between two moving averages, PPO makes this a relative value by dividing the difference by the slower moving average (26-day EMA). PPO is simply the MACD value divided by the longer moving average. The result is multiplied by 100 to move the decimal place two spots.
Interpretation
As with MACD, the PPO reflects the convergence and divergence of two moving averages. PPO is positive when the shorter moving average is above the longer moving average. The indicator moves further into positive territory as the shorter moving average distances itself from the longer moving average. This reflects strong upside momentum. The PPO is negative when the shorter moving average is below the longer moving average. Negative readings grow when the shorter moving average distances itself from the longer moving average (goes further negative). This reflects strong downside momentum. The histogram represents the difference between PPO and its 9-day EMA, the signal line. The histogram is positive when PPO is above its 9-day EMA and negative when PPO is below its 9-day EMA. The PPO-Histogram can be used to anticipate signal line crossovers in the PPO.
MACD, PPO and Price
MACD levels are affected by the price of a security. A high-priced security will have higher or lower MACD values than a low-priced security, even if volatility is basically equal. This is because MACD is based on the absolute difference in the two moving averages. Because MACD is based on absolute levels, large price changes can affect MACD levels over an extended period of time. If a stock advances from 20 to 100, its MACD levels will be considerably smaller around 20 than around 100. The PPO solves this problem by showing MACD values in percentage terms.
Conclusions
The Percentage Price Oscillator (PPO) generates the same signals as the MACD, but provides an added dimension as a percentage version of MACD. The PPO levels of the Dow Industrials (price > 20K) can be compared against the PPO levels of IBM (price < 200) because the PPO “levels” the playing field. In addition, PPO levels in one security can be compared over extended periods of time, even if the price has doubled or tripled. This is not the case for the MACD.
Limitations
Despite its advantages, the PPO is still not the best oscillator to identify overbought or oversold conditions because movements are unlimited (in theory). Levels for RSI and the Stochastic Oscillator are limited and this makes them better suited to identify overbought and oversold levels.

PPO Divergence Alerts 2.0This is basically the same code as my other PPO Divergence indicator expect it overlays the signal on the candles, rather than needing the oscillator. I'm keeping the old version, as I'm sure people will prefer it, but this version takes up less screen real estate.

Buy to Sell Convergence / Divergence and Volume Pressure Counterforce Histogram Ideas by: @XeL_Arjona
WHAT IS THIS?
The following indicators try to acknowledge in a K-I-S-S approach to the eye (Keep-It-Simple-Stupid), the two most important aspects of nearly every trading vehicle: -- PRICE ACTION IN RELATION BY IT'S VOLUME --
Volume Pressure Histogram: Columns plotted in positive are considered the dominant Volume Force for the given period. All "negative" columns represents the counterforce Vol.Press against the dominant.
Buy to Sell Convergence / Divergence: It's a simple adaptation of the popular "Price Percentage Oscillator" or MACD but taking Buying Pressure against Selling Pressure Averages, so given a Positive oscillator reading (>0) represents Bullish dominant Trend and a Negative reading (<0) a Bearish dominant Trend. Histogram is the diff between RAW Volume Pressures Convergence/Divergence minus Normalised ones (Signal) which helps as a confirmation.
Volume bars are by default plotted from RAW Volume Pressure algorithms, but they can be as well filtered with Karthik Marar's approach against a "Total Volume Average" in favor to clean day to day noise like HFT.
ALL NEW IDEAS OR MODIFICATIONS to these indicators are Welcome in favor to deploy a better and more accurate readings. I will be very glad to be notified at Twitter: @XeL_Arjona
