Coppock Curve Silver Technical Analysis & Coppock Curve Trading Signals

Developed by Edwin Sedgwick Coppock

This silver technical technical indicator was used for technical analysis of Stocks & Commodities in the beginning but was later used to trade Silver.

The principle behind this is the psychology of trading, based on the theory that human habit is predictable. And xagusd price movement always oscillates in a zigzag manner.

The principle of adaptation-level applies to how xagusd trading price reacts at certain levels, stock and xagusd prices will react in the same way or pattern as those observed historically.

XAGUSD Technical Analysis & Generating Trading Signals

In silver trading, The moving average is the simplest form of an adaptation-level, the xagusd price will oscillate around the moving average. This forms the basis of this indicator, which is a longer term oscillator based on this adaptation-levels(moving average), but in a different way.

Oscillators usually begin by calculating a % change of the current xagusd trading price from some previous xagusd trading price point, where the previous xagusd price point is the reference point (adaptation-level).

Edwin Coppock reasoned that the xagusd trading market participants' emotional state could be quantified by summing up the % changes over the recent past to get a general sense of the xagusd trading market's longer term momentum.

For example, If we compare xagusd trading prices relative to a year ago and we see that this month the xagusd trading market is up 20% compared to a year ago, last month it was up 15% over a year ago, & 10 %, 7.50% & 5% respectively the months before that, then we may ascertain that the xagusd trading market is gaining momentum.

Basic signals can also be generated using the Coppock Curve to trade market reversals from extreme xagusd trading price levels. Looking for divergence and silver trend line breaks may also be combined to confirm the signal.

Implementation

The input levels of this indicator may need to be adjusted to better fit the dynamic nature of the xagusd trading markets trading.

Coppock Curve has a zero line reference point, but this doesn't represent the adaptation-level but it is only a visual reference point only.
