On Balance Volume(OBV)

Parametersnone
UsageOBV
Average OBV(Period)
DescriptionOn Balance Volume uses volume on up and down days as a momentum indicator for a stock. A cumulative momentum indicator, the On Balance Volume adds the daily volume on a day where the stock closes up and subtracts the daily volume on days when the stock closes down. Because the OBV is not normalized from one stock to another, typical interpretations analyze the slope to determine potential momentum changes. The Average OBV is an exponential moving average of the OBV line.
