    The Aroon indicators are a momentum oscillator developed in 1995 by Tushar Chande. Designed to indicate whether an asset is trending, Chande named his oscillator “Aroon,” which means “Dawn’s Early Light” in Sanskrit. He believed this name aptly described the oscillator's function, which focuses on time relative to price and is commonly used to identify emerging trends and anticipate reversals. This makes the Aroon indicators an effective early warning system for price action.

    Aroon Crossovers

    Interpreting the Aroon indicators involves three key levels on the scale: 0, 50, and 100. A basic interpretation suggests that the market is bullish when Aroon-Up is above 50 and Aroon-Down is below 50, indicating that new daily highs are more likely than new daily lows. Conversely, with a downtrend, Aroon-Down is above 50 while Aroon-Up is below 50, suggesting that new daily lows are more likely than new daily highs.

    • An Aroon-Up indicator that measures how many days it’s been since a 25-day high was recorded.
    • An Aroon-Down indicator that measures how many days it’s been since a 25-day low was recorded.

    We use the Aroon with the Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicator for a better trading signal.

     

    Combined Aroon and RSI Strategy

    Using Aroon and RSI together can enhance the reliability of trading signals by using the Aroon to identify the overall trend and the RSI to confirm if the stock is in an overbought or oversold condition within that trend.
