About Stochastic Indicator

A Stochastic Indicator or you can call it a Stochastic Oscillator is a trend indicator that was developed by George Lane. This indicator uses two moving average that oscillates between 0 – 100. In most trading platforms you will find 20 – 80  as that’s the best way to trade with this indicator.

This indicator uses two moving average lines name % K and % D. The % K line is considered as the fast line whereas the  %D line is considered the slow one. The intersection of these two lines generates buy and sell signals and helps traders to predict the upcoming bullish and bearish trend.
