The accumulation Swing Index is a variance of the Welles Wilder’s Swing Index. It establishes a running sum of the Swing Index interpretation of each candlestick. The interpretation of the swing index for an upward bar is between 0 and 100 and for a downward bar is from 0 to minus 100. The swing index is measured by using the actual candlesticks open, maximum and close, together with previous candles open and close.

The Accumulative Swing Index is implemented to have enhanced long-term view instead of using the basic swing index, which employs information from just two candlesticks. In case to have an upward long-term trend, the accumulative swing index will give an affirmative interpretation. In the opposite, in case to have a downward long-term trend, the accumulative swing index offers an unhelpful reading. Then, if the long-term trend is sideways, the accumulative swing index works in both settings (positive and negative interpretations).

The ASI should offer the investors with arithmetical price variations that are security computed, and it should divulge short-term value reversals. The investor can confirm value ruptures by comparing trend lines on the ASI with trend lines on the value chart. We should have a false rupture when a trend line charted is not continuous. Unlike an identical trend line charted on the ASI is not a false break. In short, the ASI can be implemented to confirm guesswork in a trend swing.

Now, we are going to talk about the McClellan Oscillator, funded by Sherman and Marian McClellan on the 60’s. This one measures the difference between two EMA by employing the increases and decreases over a selected day period.

This part of the article will be the most important to keep in mind. The two EMA periods never change and are set to 19 and 39 periods and normally they display 10 and 5 % trend prices. The famous charting platforms like Tradestation and others use the defaults parameters (EMA 19 and EMA 39 day periods) but many investors prefer to try with other parameters in attempt to improve their analysis. To be honest, using the default periods with this oscillator is a very good short-term indicator, guessing positive and negative variations in the increase/decrease stats to have improved market timing.

The McClellan Oscillator uses averages and difference, centered on this data to compute market width. So, if you want to implement this indicator accurately, the graph has to recognize the increases and decreases issues and the data has to determine to correct data number for each. Due to the use of EMAs, the arithmetic interpretation of the McClellan Oscillator should depend on the results displayed in the graph. If a value is meeting but brings more troubles during the process, then the meeting will end shortly and a large amount of the market is not engaging.

The McClellan Oscillator is another momentum indicator like the MACD. We should have a positive interpretation when the short-term average goes above the long-term one. An overbought signal is given if the indicator varies in a range from 70 to 100 and an oversold signal is provided when the indicator oscillates in a negative range from 70 to 100 and most of the oscillator reveals these details. To get a CALL signal, the oscillator has to move from negative region to overbought area and in the other hand, PUT signals are provided when the oscillator moves from positive territories to oversold area. An upward trend line from the bottoms to the tops will be a good entry’s signal whereas a downward trend line of troughs and peaks would say that the bears are taking control.

To conclude: Both indicators serve as confirmation technical indicators to investors who need to ensure twice our doubts on a solid foundation.
