Percentage Price Oscillator (PPO)

Definition

The Percentage Price Oscillator shows the percentage difference between two exponential moving averages.

Syntax
PPO(int fast, int slow, int smooth)
PPO(IDataSeries inputData, int fast, int slow, int smooth)

Returns default value
PPO(int fast, int slow, int smooth)[int barsAgo]
PPO(IDataSeries inputData, int fast, int slow, int smooth)[int barsAgo]

Returns smoothed value
PPO(int fast, int slow, int smooth).Smoothed[int barsAgo]
PPO(IDataSeries inputData, int fast, int slow, int smooth).Smoothed[int barsAgo]

Return Type
double; Accessing this method via an index value [int barsAgo] returns the indicator value of the referenced bar.

Parameters
fast	The number of bars to calculate the fast EMA
slow	The number of bars to calculate the slow EMA
smooth	The number of bars to calculate the EMA signal line
inputData	Indicator source data (?)

Examples

// Prints the current value of a 20 period Percentage Price Oscillator
double value = PPO(12, 26, 9)[0];
Print("The current Percentage Price Oscillator value is " + value.ToString());
