The presented indicator is the author's implementation of the classic Aroon indicator.
The Aroon indicator was developed in 1995 by the Indian trader Tushar Chand.
Chand's origin played a role in choosing an unusual name for the indicator. "Aroon" is translated from Sanskrit as "Light of the morning dawn".
The formula for calculating the classic Aroon indicator:
- Aroon-Up = ((specified number of periods) - (number of periods since the formation of the maximum)) / (specified number of periods) * 100.
- Aroon-Dn = ((specified number of periods) - (number of periods since the formation of the minimum)) / (specified number of periods) * 100.
Thus, with a continuous upward trend, the value of Aroon-Up will be equal to 100, and Aroon-Down, respectively, 0. With a continuous downward trend - vice versa.
The indicator allows you to select the calculation method (based on the closing price or maximum / minimum price values).
The indicator also allows you to set up a signal line to identify points of strengthening or weakening the current trend.
Thus, the indicator signals both a change in trend direction and local changes in trend strength. The indicator does not repaint on fully formed bars.
The indicator signals are sent after the bar on which the signal appeared has finished forming. Signals are marked both in the oscillator window and on the price chart.
The indicator allows you to set up notifications about its signals to a mobile terminal and e-mail.
