What is CMO?
The Chande Momentum Oscillator (CMO) was developed by Tushar Chande and measures the sum of recent gains minus the sum of recent losses, divided by the total sum of all price movement over a given period, scaled to a -100 to +100 range. It is closely related to RSI but uses a different normalization approach.
CMO values above +50 indicate strong upward momentum (overbought), while values below -50 indicate strong downward momentum (oversold). The zero line acts as a bull/bear threshold. Divergences between CMO and price are commonly used to anticipate reversals.
