Description & Settings
Witold Wozniak
Stochastic RVI is a standard applied to the values of (Relative Vigor Index) indicator instead of a price.
Standard Stochastic oscillator is not so effective in marking the changes of market cycles or volatility. It uses a fixed period and does not fit into constantly changing market cycle length. Stochastic RVI indicator does not have such a problem and fits into the current market volatility.
The indicator is inspired by John Ehlers' article published in November 2002 in the magazine. The simplest trading system for this indicator is equivalent to the one used with Stochastic Oscillator or RVI: main/signal lines crossover, zero line breakout, enter and exit to the overbought and oversold areas, the indicator divergencies with a price chart.
