Disparity Index
An indicator showing how far price is above or below a moving average, as a percentage.
In plain English
An indicator showing how far price is above or below a moving average, as a percentage.
The disparity index measures the stretch between price and a chosen moving average. Positive means price is above the average; negative, below.
Large readings suggest price has run far from its average and may snap back, though strong trends can stay stretched.
