TASC 2022.05 Relative Strength Exponential Moving Average
█ OVERVIEW
TASC's May 2022 edition Traders' Tips includes the "Relative Strength Moving Averages" article authored by Vitali Apirine. This is the code implementing the Relative Strength Exponential Moving Average (RS EMA) indicator introduced in this publication.
█ CONCEPTS
RS EMA is an adaptive trend-following indicator with reduced lag characteristics. By design, this was made possible by harnessing the relative strength of price. It operates in a similar fashion to a traditional EMA, but it has an improved response to price fluctuations. In a trading strategy, RS EMA can be used in conjunction with an EMA of the same length to identify the overall trend (see the preview chart). Alternatively, RS EMAs with different lengths can define turning points and filter price movements.

█ CALCULATIONS
The following steps are used in the calculation process:
• Calculate the relative strength (RS) of a given length.
• Multiply RS by a chosen coefficient (multiplier) to adapt the EMA filtering the original time series. Calculate the EMA of the resulting time series.
The author recommends RS EMA(10,10,10) as typical settings, where the first parameter is the EMA length, the second parameter is the RS length, and the third parameter is the RS multiplier. Other values may be substituted depending on your trading style and goals.
