Aroon UP

If gold trading price sets a new high, Aroon UP will be 100 - for each new high it will stay at 100.

If however gold trading price is making new lows for a particular gold trading price period then Aroon UP will be at zero
Calculation
Aroon UP is a percentage of time between gold trading price period and highest point.
If you use 10 gold price periods for calculation:
Example 1: Highest gold price was 1 day ago
Then if the highest point was yesterday, i.e. 1 day before then
10 gold trading price periods minus 1 day= 9
9/10 in percent terms = 90
Aroon UP will be at 90
Example 2: Highest gold trading price was 5 days ago
If the highest point was 5 days ago then
10 gold price periods minus 5 = 5
5/10 in percent = 50
Aroon UP will be at 50
Aroon DOWN
This is calculated the same as Aroon UP but this time using lowest point instead of highest point.
When a new low is set Aroon DOWN is at 100 and when a new high is set it will move to zero.
