The closes
The Chande oscillator
The 14-bar Chande momentum oscillator is +52.7. Gains outweigh losses over the last 14 bars.
- The moves
- The up bars added 114.30 and the down bars took away 35.40. The oscillator is above +50, where many traders call it overbought, and rising from +51.3 on the bar before.
- How it is read
- Many traders read above +50 as stretched up and below -50 as stretched down, and a cross of zero as a change of side. Close to 0 means the moves cancel out.
- Read it with care
- In a strong trend it can stay past +50 or -50 for a long time. One big bar moves it until it leaves the window, 14 bars later.

Education only, not investment advice. The answer comes from the numbers you typed in, not from your account or the market. Simulated results are hypothetical and have limits: real trading has slippage, gaps, changing results and emotions. Trading leveraged products can lose money quickly, including all of it.

Momentum without the smoothing
Tushar Chande published this oscillator in 1994. Over the period it adds up the rises from one close to the next, adds up the falls, and divides the difference by the total. Unlike the RSI it does not smooth the sums, so it reacts at once and swings further: +100 means every bar closed higher, -100 that every bar closed lower.
