Price Oscillator

nFastLength Required. Number for the fast period length to use for the calculation.

 

n/a nSlowLength Required. Number for the slow period length to use for the calculation.

 

n/a bExponential Required. Boolean true or false to use exponential calculations.

 

n/a Series or
sym() or
inv() [Optional]  Series Object or function of sym() or inv() to determine symbol/interval source for the study.

 

Chart's sym/inv nBarIndex [Optional]  Bar index of series to retrieve.

 

n/a

Return Value(s)

Returns a Series Object when nBarIndex is not specified.

Returns a single value when nBarIndex is specified.

Notes

Only available in versions 7.9 or later.

Code Examples

Single Line Indicator:

function main() { return new Array(osc(10, 21, false) );}

Single Line Study-on-Study Indicator:

function main() { return new Array(osc(10, 21, false, hl2()) );}

Retrieve single values:

function main() { var nValue_0 = osc(10, 21, false, 0); // Current Bar Index var nValue_1 = osc(10, 21, false, -1); // Prior Bar Index return new Array(nValue_0, nValue_1);}

Initialize Series Objects:

//global Series Object variablevar xStudy = null;function main() { if (xStudy == null) xStudy = osc(10, 21, false); // retrieve single values for conditional statements var nValue_0 = xStudy.getValue(0); // Current Bar Index value var nValue_1 = xStudy.getValue(-1); // Prior Bar Index value // Plot Current Bar Index Value return nValue_0; }

Initialize a Series Object based on an external interval:

// global Series Object variablesvar xStudy = null;var bInit = false; // Initialization flagfunction main() { if (bInit == false) { xStudy = osc(10, 21, false, inv(20)); // 20-min interval bInit = true; } // retrieve single values for conditional statements var nValue_0 = xStudy.getValue(0); // Current Bar Index value var nValue_1 = xStudy.getValue(-1); // Prior Bar Index value // Synchronized Series plot return getSeries(xStudy); }

Initialize a Series Object based on an external symbol and interval:

// global Series Object variablesvar xStudy = null;var bInit = false; // Initialization flagfunction main() { if (bInit == false) { xStudy = osc(10, 21, false, sym("IBM,20")); // IBM 20-min interval bInit = true; } // retrieve single values for conditional statements var nValue_0 = xStudy.getValue(0); // Current Bar Index value var nValue_1 = xStudy.getValue(-1); // Prior Bar Index value // Synchronized Series plot return getSeries(xStudy); }
