in hive-175254 •  3 years ago 

In this post I will socialize content on what is the usefulness of the ROC indicator in determining decisions when finding buy and sell signals, and also in identifying overbought and oversold signals, this in order to expand the theoretical and technical aspects of this important trading tool.

Buy Signal

In an uptrend the direction and price action in each respective retracement or correction project buy signals, since in each retracement there are oversold conditions, therefore, these scenarios serve as an alert to be prepared to take a buy position, as long as the Rate of Change indicator starts to approach the zero (0) line, action that can be used to take buy decisions, to give a visual example of a buy decision signal with oversold signal I will share the following chart of the TFUEL/USDT pair.

Sell Signal

One of the best ways to exit in sell using the Rate of Change indicator, is if after a long uptrend the price action starts to show weakness, action that can be contrasted if the ROC indicator line starts to fall approaching the zero (0) line, behavior that can be used to make sell decisions, to give a visual example of a sell decision signal I will share the following chart of the ADA/USDT. pair

Identifying overbought and oversold signals

The greatest operational advantage of momentum indicators is precisely when a financial instrument is in an overbought or oversold zone, such is the case of the Exchange Rate indicator, which projects overbought signals when the ROC line rises above zero (0) and increases to an estimated 4%.

In the opposite case, when the Exchange Rate indicator projects oversold signals when the ROC line falls below the zero (0) line and depreciates at an estimated 4%.

To give a visual example of identifying Overbought and Oversold signals I will share the following chart of the BTC/USDT. pair
