Core Calculation & Logic
The Awesome Oscillator Multicurrency Scanner calculates the difference between a fast and slow moving average of the median price. It identifies bullish and bearish momentum in various currency pairs, providing traders with insights into potential market trends.
This scanner monitors multiple currency pairs simultaneously, allowing traders to quickly assess market conditions and make informed trading decisions based on the Awesome Oscillator's signals.
How Signals Are Generated
A BUY signal is generated when the Awesome Oscillator crosses above the zero line, indicating bullish momentum. This suggests a potential upward price movement in the selected currency pair.
A SELL signal occurs when the Awesome Oscillator crosses below the zero line, indicating bearish momentum. This suggests a potential downward price movement in the selected currency pair.
The scanner can utilize confluence logic by combining signals from different timeframes, enhancing the reliability of the signals generated.
The dashboard displays symbols in rows and timeframes in columns, with arrows indicating the direction of signals. The age of the signal is shown in parentheses, helping traders assess the timeliness of the signals.
