Percent of Resistance (PCR)
The Percent of Resistance (PCR) is an oscillator. It compares a currency's closing price to its price range over a selected period.
Some ways to interpret Percent of Resistance indicator:
- Buy when the indicator falls below a certain level (e.g. 20) and then rises above that level
- Sell when the indicator rises above a certain level (e.g. 80) and then falls below that level
Look for divergences. Sometimes prices are showing a series of new highs however, PCR is failing to surpass its previous highs.
