Adaptive Qualitative Quantitative Estimation (QQE) [Loxx]Adaptive QQE is a fixed and cycle adaptive version of the popular Qualitative Quantitative Estimation (QQE) used by forex traders. This indicator includes varoius types of RSI caculations and adaptive cycle measurements to find tune your signal.
Qualitative Quantitative Estimation (QQE):
The Qualitative Quantitative Estimation (QQE) indicator works like a smoother version of the popular Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicator. QQE expands on RSI by adding two volatility based trailing stop lines. These trailing stop lines are composed of a fast and a slow moving Average True Range (ATR).
There are many indicators for many purposes. Some of them are complex and some are comparatively easy to handle. The QQE indicator is a really useful analytical tool and one of the most accurate indicators. It offers numerous strategies for using the buy and sell signals. Essentially, it can help detect trend reversal and enter the trade at the most optimal positions.
Wilders' RSI:
The Relative Strength Index ( RSI ) is a well versed momentum based oscillator which is used to measure the speed (velocity) as well as the change (magnitude) of directional price movements. Essentially RSI , when graphed, provides a visual mean to monitor both the current, as well as historical, strength and weakness of a particular market. The strength or weakness is based on closing prices over the duration of a specified trading period creating a reliable metric of price and momentum changes. Given the popularity of cash settled instruments (stock indexes) and leveraged financial products (the entire field of derivatives); RSI has proven to be a viable indicator of price movements.
RSX RSI:
RSI is a very popular technical indicator, because it takes into consideration market speed, direction and trend uniformity. However, the its widely criticized drawback is its noisy (jittery) appearance. The Jurk RSX retains all the useful features of RSI , but with one important exception: the noise is gone with no added lag.
Rapid RSI:
Rapid RSI Indicator, from Ian Copsey's article in the October 2006 issue of Stocks & Commodities magazine.
RapidRSI resembles Wilder's RSI , but uses a SMA instead of a WilderMA for internal smoothing of price change accumulators.
VHF Adaptive Cycle:
Vertical Horizontal Filter (VHF) was created by Adam White to identify trending and ranging markets. VHF measures the level of trend activity, similar to ADX DI. Vertical Horizontal Filter does not, itself, generate trading signals, but determines whether signals are taken from trend or momentum indicators. Using this trend information, one is then able to derive an average cycle length.
Band-pass Adaptive Cycle:
Even the most casual chart reader will be able to spot times when the market is cycling and other times when longer-term trends are in play. Cycling markets are ideal for swing trading however attempting to “trade the swing” in a trending market can be a recipe for disaster. Similarly, applying trend trading techniques during a cycling market can equally wreak havoc in your account. Cycle or trend modes can readily be identified in hindsight. But it would be useful to have an objective scientific approach to guide you as to the current market mode.
There are a number of tools already available to differentiate between cycle and trend modes. For example, measuring the trend slope over the cycle period to the amplitude of the cyclic swing is one possibility.
We begin by thinking of cycle mode in terms of frequency or its inverse, periodicity. Since the markets are fractal ; daily, weekly, and intraday charts are pretty much indistinguishable when time scales are removed. Thus it is useful to think of the cycle period in terms of its bar count. For example, a 20 bar cycle using daily data corresponds to a cycle period of approximately one month.
When viewed as a waveform, slow-varying price trends constitute the waveform's low frequency components and day-to-day fluctuations (noise) constitute the high frequency components. The objective in cycle mode is to filter out the unwanted components--both low frequency trends and the high frequency noise--and retain only the range of frequencies over the desired swing period. A filter for doing this is called a bandpass filter and the range of frequencies passed is the filter's bandwidth.
Included:
-Toggle on/off bar coloring
-Customize RSI signal using fixed, VHF Adaptive, and Band-pass Adaptive calculations
-Choose from three different RSI types
Visuals:
-Red/Green line is the moving average of RSI
-Thin white line is the fast trend
-Dotted yellow line is the slow trend

Aroon Oscillator of Adaptive RSI [Loxx]Aroon Oscillator of Adaptive RSI uses RSI to calculate AROON in attempt to capture more trend and momentum quicker than Aroon or RSI alone. Aroon Oscillator of Adaptive RSI has three different types of RSI calculations and the choice of either fixed, VHF Adaptive, or Band-pass Adaptive cycle measures to calculate RSI.
Arron Oscillator:
The Aroon Oscillator was developed by Tushar Chande in 1995 as part of the Aroon Indicator system. Chande’s intention for the system was to highlight short-term trend changes. The name Aroon is derived from the Sanskrit language and roughly translates to “dawn’s early light.”
The Aroon Oscillator is a trend-following indicator that uses aspects of the Aroon Indicator (Aroon Up and Aroon Down) to gauge the strength of a current trend and the likelihood that it will continue.
Aroon oscillator readings above zero indicate that an uptrend is present, while readings below zero indicate that a downtrend is present. Traders watch for zero line crossovers to signal potential trend changes. They also watch for big moves, above 50 or below -50 to signal strong price moves.
Wilders' RSI:
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is a well versed momentum based oscillator which is used to measure the speed (velocity) as well as the change (magnitude) of directional price movements. Essentially RSI, when graphed, provides a visual mean to monitor both the current, as well as historical, strength and weakness of a particular market. The strength or weakness is based on closing prices over the duration of a specified trading period creating a reliable metric of price and momentum changes.

Band-pass Adaptive Cycle
Even the most casual chart reader will be able to spot times when the market is cycling and other times when longer-term trends are in play. Cycling markets are ideal for swing trading however attempting to “trade the swing” in a trending market can be a recipe for disaster. Similarly, applying trend trading techniques during a cycling market can equally wreak havoc in your account. Cycle or trend modes can readily be identified in hindsight. But it would be useful to have an objective scientific approach to guide you as to the current market mode.
There are a number of tools already available to differentiate between cycle and trend modes. For example, measuring the trend slope over the cycle period to the amplitude of the cyclic swing is one possibility.

Since the markets are fractal ; daily, weekly, and intraday charts are pretty much indistinguishable when time scales are removed. Thus it is useful to think of the cycle period in terms of its bar count. For example, a 20 bar cycle using daily data corresponds to a cycle period of approximately one month.

Ehlers Cycle Amplitude [CC]The Cycle Amplitude was created by John Ehlers (Trend Modes and Cycle Modes) and this indicator wasn't meant to give buy and sell signals by itself but I'm publishing this open source script in case someone comes up with a cool way to use this indicator for buy and sell signals. This indicator essentially tells you the distance between the peaks from the Cycle BandPass Filter and I will be including the last script tomorrow most likely. I'm reusing the same exact buy and sell signals from the cycle bandpass filter so if you have any questions then feel free to refer to the link I posted.
Let me know if there are any other scripts you would like to see me publish!
Ehlers Cycle BandPass Filter [CC]The Cycle BandPass Filter was created by John Ehlers (Cycle Modes and Trend Modes) and this is an alternate to the default BandPass Filter by changing some settings. This will be another series I will be introducing showing some indicators created by Ehlers and that didn't get much attention. This identifies the underlying cycle in the price data and these indicators aren't very common so I want to introduce more of these to tv. Buying and selling with these indicators can be a bit tricky but overall what Ehlers recommends is to buy at the lowest point and sell at the highest point to capture the underlying cycle. I have included strong buy and sell signals as darker colors and normal signals as lighter colors. Buy when the line turns green and sell when it turns red.
Let me know if there are any other scripts you would like to see me publish!
Ehlers Adaptive Bandpass Filter [CC]The Adaptive Bandpass Filter was created by John Ehlers (Cycle Analytics For Traders pgs 153-156) and this uses his autocorrelation code to provide the adaptive lengths to use for the underlying bandpass filter. The bandpass filter is a common way in digital signal processing to filter out the underlying noise in the data. It can actually be turned into a leading indicator by changing the bw variable to a smaller amount. Since this indicator is adaptive using the cycle period, the buy and sell signals are different compared to the normal bandpass filter. Buy signals for this indicator according to Ehlers are when the line is red and the line is under the oversold line (also red) then you buy when the indicator line turns green and then you exit when the indicator line turns red and is above the overbought line. This indicator doesn't provide clear buy and sell signals in all circumstances but generally speaking buy when the indicator line turns green and sell when it turns red. Feel free to experiment with this one.
Let me know if there are any other scripts you would like to see me publish!
Bandpass Filters v.02
This is an alternative way to do bandpass filtering. I Still need to update it to support moveable frequency bands. The lowBandpass() is just a 'trick,' as it simply subtracts the highBandpass() from the close data, so it is not really accurate in that it removes the low frequencies, just in a rather less-than-ideal manner.
The "spectrum" of the dataset to filter will always be from 0 to 100, so think of filter boundary as %. So, a boundary of 40% means: 40% of the low-frequencies have been removed from the original data to make the red graph, and 40% of the high-frequencies have been removed from the original data to make the green graph.
This came about after reading the excellent tutorial on signal processing in Pine Script (www.pinecoders.com), as the techniques listed there did not do exactly what I was looking for.

[blackcat] L2 Ehlers Dominant Cycle Tuned Bandpass FilterLevel: 2
Background
John F. Ehlers introuced his Dominant Cycle Tuned Bandpass Filter Strategy in Mar, 2008.
Function
In "Measuring Cycle Periods", author John Ehlers presents a very interesting technique of measuring dominant market cycle periods by means of multiple bandpass filtering. By utilizing an approach similar to audio equalizers, the signal (here, the price series) is fed into a set of simple second-order infinite impulse response bandpass filters. Filters are tuned to 8,9,10,...,50 periods. The filter with the highest output represents the dominant cycle. A full-featured formula that implements a high-pass filter and a six-tap low-pass Fir filter on input, then 42 parallel Iir band-pass filters.
I've coded John Ehlers' filter bank to measure the dominant cycle (DC) and the sine and cosine filter components in pine v4 for TradingView, based on John Ehlers' article in this issue, "Measuring Cycle Periods." The CycleFilterDC function plots and returns the DC series and its components, so it's a trivial matter to make use of them in a trading strategy.
Based on John Ehlers' article, "Measuring Cycle Periods," he chose to implement the dominant cycle-tuned bandpass filter response to test Ehlers' suggestion to use the sine and cosine crossovers as buy and sell signals. If the sine closely follows the price pattern as suggested, and the cosine is an effective leading function of the sine, then it seems to make sense that a crossover implementation would work well (Personally, what I observed this is not so accurated as his claims).
What he discovered in his tests was that crossovers happened at frequent intervals, even when price has not moved significantly. This leads to a higher percentage of losing trades, particularly when spread, slippage, and commissions are accounted for. Nevertheless, the cosine crossover was quite effective at identifying reversals very early in many cases, so this indicator could prove quite effective when used alongside other indicators. In particular, the use of an indicator to confirm a certain level of recent volatility, as well as an indicator to confirm significant rate of change, could prove quite helpful.

[blackcat] L2 Ehlers Adaptive BandPass FilterLevel: 2
Background
John F. Ehlers introduced Adaptive BandPass Filter in his "Cycle Analytics for Traders" chapter 11 on 2013.
Function
Adaptive band-pass filter was designed. It just makes since to tune that filter to the measured dominant cycle to eliminate all the other frequency components that are of no interest. Here, the adaptive band-pass indicator starts with the computation of the dominant cycle using the autocorrelation periodogram approach.
One way to make a band-pass filter have a leading phase capability is to tune the filter to a period shorter than the period of the cycle being measured. In this case, the bandwidth of filter is set to 0.3. That is 30 percent of the tuned center period. Therefore, the half bandwidth is 15 percent. We tune the filter to be 10 percent toward the shorter period from the dominant cycle period to provide the phase lead while still having the data of interest be within the filter bandwidth. This provides a phase lead of the dominant cycle to be something on the order of 60 degrees, or one-sixth of a cycle. If the dominant cycle were 18 bars, for example, then the detuning of the filter would produce a 3-bar lead. This leading function is not huge, but it is significant.
A convenient trigger line is included in the adaptive band-pass filter to signal the more highly likely buy and sell points. The trigger is compute as 90 percent of the amplitude of the adaptive band-pass filter line and is delayed by one bar. While the line crossings occur after the peak of the band-pass filter, phase lead provides for the generation of a timely signal. Significant trading signals should also include the criteria that the line crossing occur at greater than the +0.7 and less than the −0.7 reference lines.

Ehlers Trend Vigor NormalizedThanks to MasBart, I updated the earlier version to normalize signal and lead according to vigor and trigger. Vigor and trigger are limited to +-2. Now signal and lead are also in that range.
The code of interest is lines 39-43:
tmpdif = (BP - nz(BP ))/close
a = array.new_float(0)
for i = 0 to win-1
array.push(a, tmpdif )
den = array.max(a)
den is then used to normalize the BP values (bandpass filter).
Truncated Bandpass Filter and Bandpass Filter - Dr. John EhlersWith the arrival of the blessed gifts of arrays from TV, I now present the REAL "Truncated Bandpass Filter" indicator employing PSv4.0 upon initial release, originally formulated by the magnificent mathemagician Dr. John Ehlers for TASC - July 2020 Traders Tips. Don't be bamboozled by the other incorrect truncated bandpass filters found on TV, those published with an erroneous haste that preceded Pine array availability. More information about these bandpass filters can be acquired with a simple search for this indicator's white paper, entitled "TRUNCATED INDICATORS by John F. Ehlers", on his site in the educational reference section.
This actually contains two indicators, one being the truncated bandpass, the other being a two pole bandpass which is also found in my Voss implementation. The two pole bandpass is primarily for comparison of both types, but as you can see, they share common code within both, one being truncated and the other not. I modified Ehlers' original truncation formulation by allowing the capability to alter the truncation period using two distinct methods. I will explain very briefly that the purpose of a truncated "infinite impulse response" filter is to dampen it's response. Truncation techniques aren't limited to only bandpass filters, "some" other IIR filters, but not all, may benefit from this as well.
Lastly this is a miniature starter lesson by example of how the new native Pine array functions may be used, along with other various methods such as `var` to improve computational efficiency on the cloud servers. Yep, native Pine arrays just doubled the "Power of Pine" by exponential magnitudes of power into the dimension of what I would now term as the "Immense Power of Pine" . The next generation capability of programming extremely advanced indicators has now successfully arrived on mothership Earth, right on TradingView's front lawn. Who would of known?? This is brought to you in part by the devoted voluntary efforts of the most skilled poetic programmers on TV, the likes of which most extraterrestrial alien programmers would fear. Ladies and Gents, YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE. Wink, wink!
NOTICE: You have absolute freedom to use this source code any way you see fit within your new Pine projects. You don't have to ask for my permission to reuse these functions in your published scripts, simply because I have better things to do than answer requests for the reuse of the tbpf() and bpf() functions. Sufficient accreditation regarding this script and compliance with "TV's House Rules" regarding code reuse, is as easy as copying the functions in their entirety as is. Fair enough? Good!

Ehlers BandPass Filter [CC]The BandPass Filter was created by John Ehlers (Cycle Analytics For Traders pgs 56-57) and this indicator only works well in choppy markets so I figured it would be useful for the scalpers out there. As you will notice it correctly identifies the peaks and valleys in the underlying stock data but it doesn't work as well when the stock is trending. The black line is a leading signal for the indicator and so I use that as the basis for the buy and sell signals. Make sure to experiment with this one and let me know if you find any better buy and sell signals to work with since I believe this is the first time I have seen this script published. Buy when the line turns green and sell when it turns red.
Let me know if there are other indicators you would like to see me publish or if you want something custom done!
Ehlers Truncated BandPass Filter [CC]Hot off the presses! The Truncated BandPass Filter was created by John Ehlers (Stocks & Commodities July 2020) and this is a much more reactive version of his original bandpass filter. When the indicator rises above 0 then it is an uptrend and when it falls below 0 then it is in a downtrend. Buy when the indicator line is red and sell when it is green.
Let me know if there are other scripts you would like to see me publish or if you want something custom done!
