This indicator is also useful as the overbought/oversold indicator in sideways markets. This indicator cycles or "oscillates" within a fixed scale of 0 to 100.

Dotted lines are drawn horizontally at 25 and 75, and are called the 25-line and 75-line or "buy" and "sell" lines, respectively.

I think the digital version can be found somewhere on forex-tsd by searching for it. But for now, here is a recent contribution of the Schaff in Multi Time Frame.
