Rate Of Change

The Price Rate of Change (or ROC-Price) shows the speed of change of the price.
This indicator is equal to the percentage of change of closing prices over a given period compared to the closing price at the beginning of the period.
The period to be used can range from 1 for highly volatile securities, up to 200 for trading in the very long term. Generally, the most used range is from 12 to 25 days.

Calculation
ROC-price = 100 * (C - CP) / CP where:
• C = closing price of the last day
• CP = closing price of the first day of the period

Example

Interpretation

In general, when the Price Rate Of Change is higher than zero, this indicates that the speed of change of the price is positive and therefore the trend is upward. The crossing of the zero line on the rise is considered as a buy signal.

Conversely, a crossing of the zero line on the fall is a sell signal because it means that the trend is downward.
