Aroon Oscillator
A technical indicator that measures the difference between the Aroon Up and Aroon Down lines, oscillating between -100 and +100. Positive values indicate an uptrend, while negative values indicate a downtrend. The oscillator helps traders quickly gauge trend direction and strength, and crossovers of the zero line can signal potential trend changes.
Example
“The Aroon Oscillator crossed above zero for the first time in weeks, suggesting bullish momentum was returning to the market.”
