Definitions
In plain terms
It supplies the scale used to normalize close position.
Technical
The implementation freezes the high and low fields, lookback, current-bar inclusion, tie behavior, missing data, and adjustment basis.
Scope
A zero range makes range-position normalization undefined under this package contract.
Formula
Stochastic range = HH - LLR^S_t=HH_t-LL_t| Symbol | Meaning | Unit |
|---|---|---|
HH_t | rolling highest high | price |
LL_t | rolling lowest low | price |
Output unit: price
Examples
- A governed lesson calculates or identifies Stochastic Price Range only after its inputs, window, state, scale, and edge cases are declared.
Common misconceptions
