Upper Indicators

Use this menu of options to calculate the moving average of ORCL’s stock price so that you can predict future movement as accurately as possible. You can use either the Simple Moving Average (SMA) or the Exponential Moving Average (EMA), the difference between them being that EMAs reduce the lag (moving averages are lagging indicators) by applying more weight to recent prices relative to older prices. The shorter the EMA’s period, the more weight that will be applied to the most recent price. You can use any number of days as the period. If you’d like to see multiples of the period, simply select the number of multiples (2 or 3) you’d like.

You can also see corporate events such as stock splits, earnings and dividends and the impact they have had on the stock. Use the upper indicator drop down menu to see additional information such as Bollinger Bands, MA envelopes etc.
