Ultimate Oscillator Technical Analysis & Ultimate Oscillator Signals

Originally developed and used to trade stocks and commodities markets.

This oscillator tries to find a middle ground between early signals and late signals given by common technical indicators.

  • Leading - some indicators lead the market and give signals earlier than the optimum ideal time
  • Lagging - some trading technical indicators lag the market so far that half of the move is over before a trading signal gets generated.

This oscillator seeks balance in timing. It avoids leading or lagging the market too far. That ensures signals hit at the right moment, matching its name.
