To compute the Stochastic Oscillator in JavaScript, you can follow these steps:
Here is a sample code snippet to compute the Stochastic Oscillator in JavaScript:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 |
function calculateStochasticOscillator(period, closes) {
let highestHigh = Math.max(...closes.slice(0, period));
let lowestLow = Math.min(...closes.slice(0, period));
let currentClosingPrice = closes[closes.length - 1];
let percentK = ((currentClosingPrice - lowestLow) / (highestHigh - lowestLow)) * 100;
// Calculate %D value using a moving average over a specified period
let percentD = calculateMovingAverage(percentK, period);
return { percentK, percentD };
}
function calculateMovingAverage(values, period) {
let sum = 0;
for (let i = 0; i < period; i++) {
sum += values[i];
}
return sum / period;
}
// Example usage
let closes = [23.45, 24.56, 25.67, 26.78, 27.89, 28.90, 30.01, 31.12, 32.23, 33.34];
let period = 5;
let stochasticOscillator = calculateStochasticOscillator(period, closes);
console.log(stochasticOscillator);

This code snippet calculates the Stochastic Oscillator values for a given set of closing prices and a specified period length. You can adjust the period length as needed for your analysis.
