chaikosc

Chaikin oscillator

Using a fints object for the Data argument of chaikosc is not recommended. Use a matrix, timetable, or table instead for financial time series. For more information, see Convert Financial Time Series Objects fints to Timetables.

Syntax

chosc = chaikocs(Data)

Description

chosc = chaikocs(Data) calculates the Chaikin oscillator.

Examples

Calculate the Chaikin Oscillator for a Stock

Load the file SimulatedStock.mat, which provides a timetable (TMW) for financial data for TMW stock.

load SimulatedStock.mat
oscillator = chaikosc(TMW);
plot(oscillator.Time, oscillator.ChaikinOscillator)
title('Chaikin Oscillator for TMW')

Input Arguments

Data — Data with high, low, open, close information

matrix | table | timetable

Data with high, low, open, close information, specified as a matrix, table, or timetable. For matrix input, Data is an M-by-4 matrix of high, low, opening, and closing prices. Timetables and tables with M rows must contain variables named 'High', 'Low', 'Open', and 'Close' (case insensitive).

Data Types: double | table | timetable

Output Arguments

chosc — Chaikin oscillator

matrix | table | timetable

Chaikin oscillator, returned with the same number of rows (M) and type (matrix, table, or timetable) as the input Data.
