About The Trading Indicators

The Klinger Oscillator or KVO is a custom indicator developed by Stephen Klinger and is based on turnovers.

It shares a whole lot of similarities with the traditional MACD indicator, but differs in the display of real-time imbalances between buying and selling pressures.

The Kijun-sen+ custom indicator is a significant member of the the Ichimoku Kinko Hyo indicator family and can be used to measure medium-term momentum and trends.
