Moving Average of Oscillator

Moving Average of Oscillator (OsMA)

Section titled “Moving Average of Oscillator (OsMA)”

Moving Average of Oscillator (OsMA) is calculated as the difference between the oscillator and oscillator smoothing.

Oscillator and Smoothing

Section titled “Oscillator and Smoothing”

In the case of OsMA, the Moving Average Convergence/Divergence base-line is used as the oscillator, and the signal line is used as the smoothing.

OsMA is the difference between the MACD and its signal line; it crosses zero when the two lines cross.

Calculation of OsMA

Section titled “Calculation of OsMA”
OSMA = MACD - SIGNAL

Where:

  • MACD is the main MACD line (fast EMA minus slow EMA);
  • SIGNAL is the signal line of the MACD.

A value above zero means the MACD is above its signal line. When OsMA crosses the zero line, the MACD crosses its signal line.
