How To Trade Using Awesome Oscillator Indicator

To trade safely, you can rely on the standard Awesome Oscillator pattern.

Zero Line Cross

When the graph goes from the negative value zone to the positive value zone, we have a signal to open an UP order.

We just need two bars to confirm the signal. One of the two bars has a negative value and the other has a positive value (rising up from the negative value zone to the positive value zone). The price touches the support and rebounds.

Open an UP order when the Awesome Oscillator crosses the Zero Line from below

Conversely, we just need 2 bars to cross the Zero Line from above (shifting from the positive value zone to the negative value zone).

Open a DOWN order when the Awesome Oscillator crosses the Zero Line from above

Twin peaks and twin troughs

In order to trade with the Twin Peaks pattern effectively, the confirmation is very important. You need to remember as follows:

– It occurs when the highest peak is above the zero line and the next one is a lower one (but still above zero, in other words the second peak is closer to zero).

– The columns between the 2 peaks must also be on the Zero Line. The signal has no effect in case the graph intersects the Zero Line between two peaks.

– Each new peak of the graph must be lower than the previous one (or closer to 0).

Open a DOWN order with the Twin Peaks pattern

When the AO indicator has formed 2 peaks, open an UP order.

Open an UP order with the Twin Troughs pattern
