Bill Williams Indicators | Chaos Theory


To understand the overall structure of the market B. Williams advised to analyze the market through the following five dimensions:

  • Fractal (phase space)
  • The driving force (energy phase)
  • Acceleration / deceleration (power phase)
  • Zone ( combination of strength / power phase)
  • Balance Line

For understanding and analyzing these dimensions there have been established a number of indicators.

The Accelerator Oscillator is an indicator which fluctuates around a median 0.00 (zero) level which corresponds to a relative balance of the market driving force with the acceleration. Positive values signal a growing bullish trend, while negative values may be qualified as a bearish trend development. The AC indicator changes its direction before any actual trend reversals take place in the market therefore it serves as an early warning sign of probable trend direction changes.
