Thanks Bruce, I see where I was going wrong now.

Simple Stochastic 14,3,3 SK xUp SD below 20:

STOC14.3 > AVG(STOC14.3,3) AND STOC14.3.1 <= AVG(STOC14.3.1,3) AND STOC14.3 < 20

Simple Stochastic 14,3,3 SK xDn SD above 80:

STOC14.3 < AVG(STOC14.3,3) AND STOC14.3.1 >= AVG(STOC14.3.1,3) AND STOC14.3 > 80

Hi Bruce,

Thanks for your reply. I already have formulae that work well at spotting SD crossing up through the 20% line or down through the 80% line. However, I find that that gets me into certain short-term trades a day or two late.

What I really need is a PCF that identifies SK crossing up thru SD, below the 20% line and SK XDn SD above the 80% line. Is such a thing possible?

Hello,

I'm interested in getting a PCF that identifies stochastic crosses (%K thru %D) in oversold and overbought. I've tried various permutations of "< 20" and "> 80" into the formula below, but cannot seem to get anything that hits the nail on the head.

Set to simple, 14,3,3.

Any help would be most welcome.

twobben15,
Yes. This is somewhat ambiguous however as the 3 occurs as both the Stochastic Period and as the SD Period in the example (although I'm suspecting you would probably get the replacements right). The result would be:

Simple Stochastic 14,3,3 SK xUp SD:

STOC14.3 > AVG(STOC14.3,3) AND STOC14.3.1 <= AVG(STOC14.3.1,3)

Simple Stochastic 14,3,3 SK xDn SD:

STOC14.3 < AVG(STOC14.3,3) AND STOC14.3.1 >= AVG(STOC14.3.1,3)

Simple Stochastic 14,3,3 SK Crossing SD (either direction):

SGN(STOC14.3 - AVG(STOC14.3,3)) <> SGN(STOC14.3.1 - AVG(STOC14.3.1,3))
