KDJ

Oscillators

KDJ on a ETH/USDT 1h chart on GG Charts
What it shows

A stochastic oscillator with a third line, J, that reacts faster than K and D and goes beyond 0 and 100.

How it is built

K and D are the smoothed stochastic lines. J is calculated from them as 3K minus 2D, so it exaggerates their moves.

Default: Set in the Inputs window.

How traders read it
  • K crossing D is the usual signal.
  • J leaving the 0 to 100 range shows a stretched move.
  • Fast and noisy, so it is best used with a trend view.
