Basically, you can analyze the relationship between Aroon Up and Aroon Downlines to interpret the price action of the market in three different ways:
- When the momentum in the market changes from a bullish one to a bearish one, and vice-versa, the Aroon Up or Down will cross over each other and change sides.
- When the market is trending with the strong momentum the Aroon indicator will display extreme readings.
- Lastly, when the market is consolidating, the Aroon Up and Aroon Downlines will stay parallel to each other.
