Klinger Volume Oscillator (KVO)

The Klinger Volume Oscillator was developed by Stephen Klinger. The study uses the difference between two exponential smoothed moving averages of the “Volume Force” and includes a signal line.

Formula

Key Pricet = (Hight + Lowt + Closet)/3

Key Pricet-1 = (Hight-1 + Lowt-1 + Closet-1)/3

Volume Force = VF  = (if Key Pricet > Key Pricet-1 , Volume otherwise -Volume)

KVO = EMAshort−period (VF)− EMAlong−period (VF)

KVO Signal = EMAsignal (KVO)

Klinger Oscillator Signal line = KOS = 13 Period EMA of KVO

 

 

Parameter

Description

Display

Opens sub-window to set parameters

      Markit = Opens Specify Conditions window.

      Color = Line color.

      Weight = Line thickness.

      Display = Line style: line, dashed, dotted, gapopen, gapdotted or histogram.

      ShareScale = Determines whether sharing of the vertical scales between studies is accepted. Auto = System determine whether sharing is feasible. On = Scale is shared regardless of the functions and studies displayed. Off = Scale is not shared. ShareScale must be On if study is overlaid on a study with multiple outputs.
