Introduction to the Ultimate Oscillator Indicator

The Ultimate Oscillator Indicator was developed by Larry Williams. That oscillator applies a weighted average of values of three stochastic indicators defined on short, medium, and long periods. The length of periods is usually in the correlation 1:2:4 (doubling) or 1:2:3 (multiplicity). Periods should be chosen according to the characteristics of a certain market. Recommended values are: 7-14-28 or 7-14-21. The indicator is in the oversold zone below the 30 value, and conversely, in the overbought zone above the 70 value. A trader should look for trade opportunities in these zones.

The Ultimate Oscillator Indicator fits all kinds of timeframes and currency pairs. It is displayed in a separate window placed just below the main trading chart. The default settings can be modified directly from the input tab. Feel free to experiment with the settings and parameters to fit your personal preferences.
