Rainbow Oscillator and Nifty

Another Trend Following Indicator under my observation other than NMA Swing Trading is Rainbow Oscillator

The Rainbow Charts and Rainbow Oscillator indicators were created by Mel Widner, Ph.D. and originally introduced in the July 1997 issue of Stocks and Commodities magazine.

The Rainbow Oscillator is a trend-following indicator .The Rainbow Oscillator is derived from a consensus of the Rainbow Charts trends. It defines the highest high and lowest low of those moving averages to create an oscillator and bandwidth lines based on those calculations.Rainbow Charts uses 2-period simple moving average. Recursive smoothing is then applied to the original moving average thereby creating 9additional moving averages; each new moving average is based on the previous moving average. Rainbow Oscillator is applied to Nifty Charts. And to Simply Understand the chart Blue lines between the Rainbow Band indicates upper trend and the Red lines between the Rainbow Band Indicates negative trend.
