Composite RSIOne issue with the famouse RSI indicator is that it is too sensitive in some cases and thus, might give false signals if we are eager to use those signals.
If we increase the length of the RSI, it might give too few signals which is not ideal as well.
This Composite RSI indicator was created to utilize the RSI strength, using 3 RSIs (with different length) in combination to give less signal than the original one.
You can use it like a normal RSI indicator:
- Try to find the entry when the RSI is in the overbought (RSI >= 70) and oversold (RSI <= 30) areas
- Use bullish divergence and bearish divergence on the RSI itself to signal your trade
In the example chart, I included a built-in RSI as well so you that you can compare the original one and the Composite RSI indicator.
Some extra features:
- Simple bullish and bearish divergences detection.
- Mark the RSI with green circle(s) when it is extremely overbought (over 80) and oversold (under 20)

PA-Adaptive, Stepped-MA of Composite RSI [Loxx]PA-Adaptive, Stepped-MA of Composite RSI is an RSI indicator using a different kind of RSI called Composite RSI. This indicator is Phase Accumulation Cycle Adaptive and uses a stepped moving average.
What is Composite RSI?
The name of the composite RSI might mislead a bit.
Composite RSI is not "compositing" RSIs but is a rather new way of calculating the RSI. Unlike the RSI that is a sort of a momentum indicators, composite RSI is more a trending indicator. It tends to filter out insignificant price changes and seems to be good in identifying the underlying trends.
What is the Phase Accumulation Cycle?
The phase accumulation method of computing the dominant cycle is perhaps the easiest to comprehend. In this technique, we measure the phase at each sample by taking the arctangent of the ratio of the quadrature component to the in-phase component. A delta phase is generated by taking the difference of the phase between successive samples. At each sample we can then look backwards, adding up the delta phases.When the sum of the delta phases reaches 360 degrees, we must have passed through one full cycle, on average.The process is repeated for each new sample.
The phase accumulation method of cycle measurement always uses one full cycle’s worth of historical data.This is both an advantage and a disadvantage.The advantage is the lag in obtaining the answer scales directly with the cycle period.That is, the measurement of a short cycle period has less lag than the measurement of a longer cycle period. However, the number of samples used in making the measurement means the averaging period is variable with cycle period. longer averaging reduces the noise level compared to the signal.Therefore, shorter cycle periods necessarily have a higher out- put signal-to-noise ratio.
