Not really trying to be difficult. The jargon "Oscillators and momentums" forms different pictures in people's minds. It would be better to just name an indicator, what it might measure is in the minds of the beholder. InSync is thought of as a ranging indicator but I use it for trending stocks.

most indicators oscilate. Momentumium to me is the difference between price or volume over time.

Thsre are 1000s of my posts here that address some of the indicators I value.

Christoper,

StochRSI is an oscillator but has nothing to do with MA's....

BTW: not all people use momentum or are trading with the trend. GET uses a trade setup called Type I which is really a reversal trade and has nothing to do with momentum or the trend thats currently in place... something to ponder....
