Acceleration Factor vs Parabolic SAR

A multiplier in the Parabolic SAR indicator that increases the rate at which the trailing stop accelerates toward price, starting at 0.02 and typically capping at 0.20, controlling how aggressively stops move as trends strengthen.

A technical indicator providing trailing stop-loss levels and reversal signals by calculating parabolic curves that follow price movements, selling when price reverses below the curve during uptrends or buying when price reverses above the curve during downtrends.
