Hello everyone,

The savage Oscillator @FateOwnzYou uses three Stochastics and the difference in the rate they change to decide if price is UP or DOWN for a time...
I added an ATR filter to remove weak values, seeing weak areas lets you know when Momentum may change direction or will go sideways weakly...

So I added a dynamic requirement that the Momentum must be outside of in order to be colored. By noting the concentration of coloring you will both save your eyes and get a feel for price action. Do not trade directly from this Use your additional Volume, Volatility, etc. Indicators and something a little slower for confirmation.

Here is a new updated version... It may take some extra chart space to calibrate. Have you tried setting for a few extra days then you want to read?
I think that the first version you released on Christmas Day was pretty amazing. The advice / warning you gave about using another indicator to confirm signals was pretty sound.

I use the 5/3/2Full Stochastics to look for an oversold level as a possible entry signal. Waiting for %K to cross above %D and ALSO leave the OverSold region is pretty reliable, BUT adding the Savage Osc is something that I'm going to try this week in my trading. The reversal/ warning candle is really nice to have. I also varied the settings in the code and used 14/5/3FullStochs, as well as, the 21/4/10FullStochs and the Oscillator performs beautfully.

I saw elsewhere that you're working on a pure MoMo script. Ever thought of using the 5/3/2 & 21/4/10 settings on the Full Stochastics as the comparative indicators?
 
Thanks for the additional work on this!
Just loaded it in to see what it can do and will monitor. Is anyone using this for daytrading and if so (or not), does anyone have an opinion or preference over another Awesome Oscillator?

All the oscillators work similarly and provide similar signals. This is a Stochastic. The other most popular ones built into ToS are the RSI and the MACD.
One of the most popular custom studies is the TMO Indicator
Oscillators are not a Holy Grail. Adding additional ones result in a false sense of security.
Google the pros and cons. Use them for their purpose, detecting trends, but never trade them in isolation.
