Introduction to the ZZI Indicator
The ZZI indicator is a custom forex oscillator. You can use it for trade entry points and exit points.
As an oscillator, the ZZI recognizes an oversold/overbought market state. When it exceeds the 100 level, it means the price is overbought. You can open a sell trade when the signal line turns yellow. Similarly, when it drops below the -100 level, it means the price is oversold. You can open a buy trade when the signal line turns red.
We suggest using in with conjunction with some trend direction filters, i.e. moving average, and open trades only in agreement with dominant trend.
It fits all kinds of timeframes and currency pairs.
The indicator 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.

Bottom Line
The ZZI indicator is well worth adding to your trading collection but remember about having realistic expectations. Just like any other technical analysis tool, is not capable of providing accurate signals 100% of the time. Thus, this forex indicator provides false signals occasionally. Its performance will vary significantly depending on market conditions. Feel free to develop your own trading system based around it.
