Hi Bruce-

One of the indicators I use is Stoch 85 %K 14

Could you please create a formula that tells me the slope of this indicator for a 1 day period, and one for a 5 days period.

Thank you in advanced.

Assuming it is a Simple Stochastic 85, 14, the net change over 1 bar would be as follows.

STOC85.14 - STOC85.14.1

While the net change over 5 bars would be as follows.

STOC85.14 - STOC85.14.5

Bruce we need to divide STOC85.14 - STOC85.14.5  by 5 correct?

(STOC85.14 - STOC85.14.5)/5

Only if you want the rate to be directly comparable with the 1 period version (if you are only comparing it to other 5 period net changes it doesn't matter). Another possibility to use in this case then would be 6 period linear regression slope (it covers the same period of time as a 5 period net change).

(5 * (STOC85.14 - STOC85.14.5) + 3 * (STOC85.14.1 - STOC85.14.4) + STOC85.14.2 - STOC85.14.3) / 35
