Summary: This indicator script measures the balance between the bulls and the bears by assessing the ability of each to push price to an extreme level. Calculation: The closing price minus the opening price divided by the high price minus the low price. Developer: Igor Livshin Interpretation: 1. Upwards Trend: When the indicator script is moving upwards, the underlying symbol is in an upwards trend. 2. Downwards Trend: When the indicator script is moving downwards, the underlying symbol is in a downwards trend. 3. Positive Divergence: When the underlying symbol is moving downwards, but the indicator script is moving upwards, the underlying symbol is likely to reverse direction and move upwards. 4. Negative Divergence: When the underlying symbol is moving upwards, but the indicator script is moving downwards, the underlying symbol is likely to reverse direction and move downwards. 5. Overbought: When the underlying symbol is moving upwards, but the indicator script is approaching its upper bound, the underlying symbol is likely to reverse direction and move downwards. 6. Oversold: When the underlying symbol is moving downwards, but the indicator script is approaching its lower bound, the underlying symbol is likely to reverse direction and move upwards.
