Slow Stochastic Oscillator

The chart shows the Slow Stochastic Crossing strategy with Slow Stochastic(5,5). A buy is generated when %K (black) crosses above %D (red) and a sell when %K crosses below %D.

A more selective version also checks the level of the crossing – buys below 20 and sells above 80 – see Slow Stochastic Cross/Rising.

• Buy when %K crosses above %D.
• Sell when %K crosses below %D.
