Shown below in the graph, Chande's Momentum Oscillator (CMO) is bounded from -100 to +100 much like other Momentum Studies such as Relative Strength Index and Stochastic.
You can see changes in net momentum using the 0 level as a balance point. Primary use of the CMO is to look for extreme overbought or oversold conditions.
Parameters: Period.

Chande's Momentum Oscillator
Here is an example of the Chande's Momentum Oscillator chart study (on a London Stock Exchange graph)
There are a couple of ways in which this chart study can be used:
Fristly, overbought signals can sometimes be generated when the CMO is above 50, indicating that there might be a fall on it's way. Vice versa, oversold signals can sometimes be generated when the CMO is below -50, indicating that there might be a rise on it's way. These are equivalent to the 70/30 levels used with the Relative Strength Index.
Secondly, the CMO is sometimes used in conjunction with a Moving Average (MA) set to a period of nine. Again using the same indicators.
Could also look for divergence of the CMO from the price level like in other Momentum Studies.
