Stochastic %K (5, 3, 0, 3, 0)

The Stochastic %K (5, 3, 0, 3, 0) is a momentum oscillators indicator used in Skyrexio Strategy Builder for momentum analysis and overbought/oversold identification.

Introduction

The Stochastic %K (5, 3, 0, 3, 0) is a momentum oscillators indicator used in Skyrexio Strategy Builder for momentum analysis and overbought/oversold identification. Compares the closing price to the price range over a specific period. %K oscillates between 0-100. Values above 80 suggest overbought conditions, below 20 suggest oversold conditions.

How Stochastic %K (5, 3, 0, 3, 0) Works

The Stochastic %K was developed by George Lane and compares the closing price to the price range over a specific period. Calculation: %K = (Close - Lowest Low) / (Highest High - Lowest Low) × 100. The parameters (5,3,0,3,0) represent: 5-period lookback, 3-period %K slowing, 0=SMA (1=EMA), 3-period %D, 0=SMA.

In crypto strategy building, Stochastic %K is used for:

• Overbought/Oversold identification - %K > 80 suggests overbought, %K < 20 suggests oversold • Momentum measurement - %K shows where the current close is relative to the recent range • Divergence analysis - %K diverging from price indicates potential reversals • Crossover signals - %K crossing above/below %D generates trading signals

Stochastic is most effective in ranging markets and should be combined with trend analysis for best results.
