You often show charts using stochastics with the following settings 14, 3, 3. Others, like Trader Mike for example, use a shorter period 5, 3, 3. What’s the justification for the stochastic settings you use?
A: The setting is more appropriate for the time frame I trade in which is bit longer than Trader Mike. For example, most traders who use 5, 3, 3 settings use them for intraday charts (i.e. daytrading) versus daily or weekly. His settings are faster but would provide too many whipsaws.
There are three options for Stochastics – fast, slow & full and I recommend reading this tutorial for more info. In addition to 14, 3, 3, another setting I like to use and frequently recommend as a starting point is 9, 5, 5 for all time frames. My recommendation is simply to start there and avoid the temptation to over-optimize the indicator until you’ve gained at least several months of experience using it at those settings.
