Description & Settings
Stochastic RSI (sometimes and by some sellers and traders) called DTOSC (dynamic trend oscillator). It is basically a stochastic of rsi.
Depending on parameters (stochastic 1, stochastic 2 and smoothing) it is :
(x,x,x) a simple RSI
(x,x,n) a smoothed RSI
(n,x,x) or (x,n,x) stochastic RSI in its "classical" way
(n,x,n) or (x,n,n) smoothed stochastic RSI
(n,n,x) double stochastic RSI
(n,n,n) smoothed double stochastic RSI
x -> parameter is less than or equal to 1
n -> parameter is greater than 1
Overbought and oversold zones are marked for easier levels crossings as an aid in decision taking. All the six sub-types should be used following the rules that are usually applied for stochastic and rsi (stochastic being a kind of a "trend" indicator and rsi being a kind of a "momentum" indicator, the combination migh avoid the basic rules, but you shall find out that it is not so dificult to use those two combined rules together)
