Put Call Oscillator
This is a volume-based oscillator used for detecting market sentiment.
This plots two moving averages of the CBOE S&P500 PCR (put call ratio), and a histogram to measure the distance between them. The histogram will generate signals of green (bullish) or red (bearish), depending on whether put volume is decreasing or increasing.
The moving averages are adjustable. They are set at 4 and 16 by default. Increasing the moving averages will generate less signals, while decreasing them will generate more signals.
The background will change color from red to green depending on whether the PCR is above or below 1.
I used capriole_charles script "Put/Call Ratio (PCR)" to help me build this.
