[blackcat] L2 Ehlers Synthetic Prices CandlesLevel: 2
Background
John F. Ehlers create Synthetic Prices Using Random Numbers with Memory in his "Cycle Analytics for Traders" chapter 8 on 2013.
Function
Peter Swerling is best known for the class of statistically “fluctuating target” scattering models he developed in the early 1950s to characterize the performance of pulsed radar systems, referred to as Swerling targets. He noted that the return radar echoes were noisy because of semirandom reflections from different parts of the aircraft because of the changing aspect of aircraft relative to the radar transmitter. There were different kinds of fluctuations due to target shape and size, radar wavelength, and so on. Some fluctuations would occur pulse to pulse, and others would vary more slowly, such as from scan to scan of the antenna. In fact, his early work led to the design of modern stealthy aircraft. The noisy radar echoes were successfully modeled as a constant plus a random number with memory. In terms recognized by traders, the echoes were modeled as an exponential moving average (EMA) passes numbers. The time constant of the EMA was different for the various models, and more complex models included several EMAs. The Swerling model is entirely consistent with the 1/F α spectral model that uses random inputs with long-term memory.
Since there has been a mountain of opinion regarding the randomness of the market, it is reasonable to apply a Swerling-like model toward the generation of synthetic data. The result is subjective, but appears to be a reasonable approximation to real market movement. There is no relationship between the real prices and the synthetic prices. Since random numbers are used, the display will change every time the indicator is computed. Since synthetic prices created by taking an EMA of random numbers are a reasonable approximation to real market prices, the prices can be viewed as random numbers with memory. A logical extension is that we can gain insight into market activity by correlating current prices with prices in the recent history to take advantage of the memory part of the model. At least that was Dr. Ehlers premise.

[blackcat] L2 Ehlers Modified RSI IndicatorLevel: 2
Background
John F. Ehlers introuced Modified RSI Indicator in his "Cycle Analytics for Traders" chapter 7 on 2013.
Function
The RSI is the percentage of the sum of the delta closes up to the sum of all the delta closes over the observation period. The only variable here is the observation period. To have maximum effectiveness the observation period should be half of the measured period. If the observation period is half the dominant cycle, then for a pure sine wave, the closes up is exactly equal to the total closes during part of the cycle from the valley to the peak. In this case, the RSI would have a value of 100. During another part of the cycle—the next half cycle—there would be no closes up. During this half cycle, the RSI would have a value of zero. So, in principle, half the measured cycle is the correct choice for the RSI observation period.
A modified RSI that is a standard RSI preceded by a SuperSmoother filter. The modified RSI is far more responsive and has less lag because the low frequency components have have been removed by the high-pass part of the SuperSmoother filter. The RSI is functionally the same as a single-pole high-pass filter because the CU term in the numerator is just a summation of one-bar differences.

[blackcat] L2 Ehlers Modified Stochastic IndicatorLevel: 2
Background
John F. Ehlers introuced Modified Stochastic Indicator in his "Cycle Analytics for Traders" chapter 7 on 2013.
Function
Conventional indicators are not immune to the effects of spectral dilation. For example, a Stochastic indicator remains near its upper bound when the market is in an uptrend even though a relatively short lookback period is used. This, of course, is due to the presence of the larger and longer cyclic components in the data. In a broad sense, the classic Stochastic indicator acts as a one-pole filter because there is just a single difference term in the numerator of its calculation. This calculation is the same as the standard, except Dr. Ehlers use a SuperSmoother for the smoothing instead of moving averages. The bottom subgraph shows an identical calculation except that the Stochastic calculations are preceded by the roofing filter that constrains the cyclic components to fall within the range from 10-bar to 48-bar periods. Clearly, the Stochastic indicator has been dramatically altered by the insertion of the roofing filter.
Dr. Ehlers leaves it to the reader to explore how standard indicators can be improved simply by inserting the roofing filter before the indicator computations are begun.

[blackcat] L2 Ehlers Roofing Filter IndicatorLevel: 2
Background
John F. Ehlers introuced Roofing Filter Indicator in his "Cycle Analytics for Traders" chapter 7 on 2013.
Function
The roofing filter does an excellent job of using only the frequency components between its upper and lower critical periods. All that needs to be done to create an indicator from the roofing filter is to add more generality by allowing the high-pass and low-pass critical periods be supplied as indicator inputs. The two high-pass filters have been implemented as a single two-pole high-pass filter. The ideal time to buy is when the cycle is at a trough, and the ideal time to exit a long position or to sell short is when the cycle is at a peak. These conditions are flagged by the filter crossing itself delayed by one bar, and are included as part of the indicator.

[blackcat] L2 Ehlers HP-LP Roofing FilterLevel: 2
Background
John F. Ehlers introuced HP-LP Roofing Filter in his "Cycle Analytics for Traders" chapter 7 on 2013.
Function
A “roofing filter” can be used to limit the frequency content of an input before proceeding to construct an indicator. The roofing filter is composed of a highpass filter that passes only frequency components whose periods are shorter than 48 bars, for example. It also is composed of a SuperSmoother filter that passes frequency components whose periods are longer than 10 bars. Thus, the roofing filter is a wide bandwidth band-pass filter that passes only frequency components whose periods fall between 10 bars and 48 bars. This, by itself, is a simple indicator.
While the roofing filter indicator wiggles in proportion to the wiggles in the price data as you would expect, it is noticeable that the indicator is above zero for extended periods where the market is in an uptrend. In other words, the filter output does not have a zero mean as you would expect if the output consisted only of cyclic components whose periods fall between 10 bars and 48 bars.

[blackcat] L2 Ehlers Hurst Coefficient IndicatorLevel: 2
Background
John F. Ehlers introuced Hurst Coefficient Indicator in his "Cycle Analytics for Traders" chapter 6 on 2013.
Function
The Hurst coefficient is one way to attempt to get a handle on the slope of the power density of market data. The Hurst coefficient varies between 0 and 1, and is related to the α power coefficient as H = 1 − α/2. The Hurst coefficient is more estimated than computed. Dr. Ehlers found the estimate using the fractal dimension was the most practical for shorter-term market data. The Hurst coefficient is related to the fractal dimension as H = 2 − D. Dr. Ehlers would like to make it perfectly clear that the Hurst coefficient or the fractal dimension has no direct practical application to trading not only because it is an estimate, but also because it has no predictive value. These computations only reflect the general structure of the market, and the answer you get is dependent on your assumptions. For example, the Hurst coefficient changes dramatically with the length of data used in making the estimate.
The only user input is the length of data to be used. The number can be arbitrarily large if you have sufficient data. The results are critically dependent on the input data length selected. After declaring variables, the coefficients of a 20-bar SuperSmoother filter are computed. The computations of N1, N2, and N3 are as described in the previous section. The fractal dimension is then converted to the Hurst coefficient, which is subsequently smoothed in the SuperSmoother filter.

[blackcat] L2 Ehlers Zero Crossings Period MeasurerLevel: 2
Background
John F. Ehlers introuced Zero Crossings Period Measurer in his "Cycle Analytics for Traders" chapter 5 on 2004.
Function
The band-pass filter can be used as a relatively simple measurement of the dominant cycle. A cycle is complete when the waveform crosses zero two times from the last zero crossing. Therefore, each successive zero crossing of the indicator marks a half cycle period. We can establish the dominant cycle period as twice the spacing between successive zero crossings. When we measure the dominant cycle period this way, it is best to widen the pass band of the band-pass filter to avoid distorting the measurement simply due to the selectivity of the filter. Using an input bandwidth of 0.7 produces an octave-wide pass band. For example, if the center period of the filter is 20 and the relative bandwidth is 0.7, the bandwidth is 14. That means the pass band of the filter extends from 13-bar periods to 27-bar periods. That is, roughly an octave exists because the longest period is twice the shortest period of the pass band. It is imperative that a high-pass filter is tuned one octave below the halfbandwidth edge of the band-pass filter to ensure a nominal zero mean of the filtered output. Without a zero mean, the zero crossings can have a substantial error.

DC ---> dominant cycle

Background
John F. Ehlers introuced Decycler in his "Cycle Analytics for Traders" chapter 4 on 2004.
Function
The concept of a decycler is really pretty simple. The cyclic components are removed by the process of cancellation. If the high-pass filter output is subtracted from the input data, the residual only contains the low-frequency components. The decycler is a one-pole filter because the denominator contains only a first-order polynomial. By examination, the decycler must closely follow the input data because there is no difference term in the numerator of the transfer response.

[blackcat] L2 Ehlers Leading IndicatorLevel: 2
Background
John F. Ehlers introuced Leading Indicator in his "Cybernetic Analysis for Stocks and Futures" chapter 16 on 2004.
Function
The leading characteristic is present in the net filte.As predicted, the lead is one bar at very low frequencies. That is, the trend indication will lead by one bar. However, the net filter has a lag of approximately 2.5 bars for cycle components near 20-bar cycles. Also, higher-frequency lag settles down to be about half a bar. The interpretation of the lag response is that the filter predicts a continuation of a trend by 1 bar, lags abrupt changes by about 0.5 bars, and lags smooth changes that can be fitted by segments of a 20-bar sinewave by as much as 2.5 bars. That’s the law of physics—you cannot get something for nothing. Causal filters can have a predictive capability over some portion of the frequency response, but not at all frequencies. There is no magic predictor.

Background
John F. Ehlers introuced Laguerre Filter in his "Cybernetic Analysis for Stocks and Futures" chapter 14 on 2004.
Function
The Laguerre transform can be represented as an exponential moving average (EMA) low-pass filter (the first term) followed by a succession of allpass elements instead of unit delays (the k − 1 terms). All terms have exactly the same damping factor γ (gamma). We see that these are all pass networks by examining the frequency response. Dr. Ehlers made a filter using the Laguerre elements instead of the unit delay, whose coefficients are also /6 as with the FIR filter. The difference is that we have warped the time between the delay line
taps.

Background
John F. Ehlers introuced Two Pole Super Smoother in his "Cybernetic Analysis for Stocks and Futures" chapter 13 on 2004.
Function
The transfer response of the two-pole Super Smoother is almost identical to the transfer response of the Regularized filter. The difference between the two is that the characteristics of the Super Smoother are determined by a single parameter and the flatness of the passband response is guaranteed.

[blackcat] L2 Ehlers Three Pole Butterworth FilterLevel: 2
Background
John F. Ehlers introuced Three-Pole Butterworth Filter in his "Cybernetic Analysis for Stocks and Futures" chapter 13 on 2004.
Function
The transfer responses of Butterworth filters have polynomials in both the numerator and denominator. There is a polynomial in the numerator as well as the denominator. The significance of the polynomial in the numerator is that it represents the finite impulse response (FIR) part of the filter. This part is like a simple moving average. The denominator forms the iterative part of the filter calculation and is the infinite impulse response (IIR) part of the filter. The FIR part of the filter sharpens the filter rejection response, but it also contributes to lag in the response. Recognizing that the parts of a Butterworth filter are separable, Dr. Ehlers formed the multipole super smoothing filters by simply deleting the polynomial in the numerator. Butterworth filters can have an arbitrarily large number of poles. The passband of Butterworth filters is prescribed by a single parameter. That parameter is the Cutoff Period, where the attenuation of the filter is 3 dB.

[blackcat] L2 Ehlers Two Pole Butterworth FilterLevel: 2
Background
John F. Ehlers introuced Two Pole Butterworth Filter in his "Cybernetic Analysis for Stocks and Futures" chapter 13 on 2004.
Function
Dr. Ehlers translated analog Butterworth filters to their digital approximations. The transfer response is characterized by a single variable—the cutoff frequency. The cutoff frequency is that frequency where the input is attenuated by 3 dB. Below the cutoff frequency, the input frequency components are passed to the output; above the cutoff frequency, the input frequency components are rejected to the extent possible by the filter characteristics. Since traders are more comfortable with period, which is the reciprocal of frequency, the equations for the Butterworth digital filters are characterized in terms of the cutoff period.
As opposed to the Regularized filter, the order of Butterworth filters can be increased indefinitely to increase the sharpness of the filter rejection. For traders, this quickly reaches the point of diminishing returns because increasing the number of poles in the filter means the lag of the filter is also increased. A three-pole filter gives just about the limit of tolerable lag for a selected cutoff period.

[blackcat] L2 Ehlers Relative Vigor IndexLevel: 2
Background
John F. Ehlers introuced Relative Vigor Index in his "Cybernetic Analysis for Stocks and Futures" chapter 6 on 2004.
Function
Relative Vigor Index (RVI) uses concepts dating back over three decades and also uses modern filter and digital signal processing theory to realize those concepts as a practical and useful indicator. The RVI merges the old concepts with the new technologies. The basic idea of the RVI is that prices tend to close higher than
they open in up markets and tend to close lower than they open in down markets. The vigor of the move is thus established by where the prices reside at the end of the day. To normalize the index to the daily trading range, the change in price is divided by the maximum range of prices for the day.
The RVI is an oscillator, and we are therefore only concerned with the cycle modes of the market in its use. The sharpest rate of change for a cycle is at its midpoint. Therefore, in the ascending part of the cycle we would expect the difference between the close and open to be at a maximum. This is like a derivative in calculus, where the derivative of a sinewave produces a negative cosine wave. The derivative is therefore a waveform that leads the original sinewave by a quarter cycle. Also, from calculus, integration of a sinewave over a half-cycle period results in another sinewave delayed by a quarter cycle. Summing over a half cycle is basically the same as mathematically integrating, with the result that the waveshape of the sum is delayed by a quarter wavelength relative to the input. The net result of taking the differences and summing produces an oscillator output in phase with the cyclic component of the price. It is also possible to generate a leading function if the summation window is less than a half wavelength of the Dominant Cycle. If a cycle measurement is not available, you can sum the RVI components over a fixed default period. A nominal value of 8 is suggested because this is approximately half the period of most cycles of interest.

[blackcat] L2 Ehlers Center of GravityLevel: 2
Background
John F. Ehlers introuced center of gravity (CG) in his "Cybernetic Analysis for Stocks and Futures" chapter 5 on 2004.
Function
The center of gravity (CG) of a physical object is its balance point. For example, if you balance a 12-inch ruler on your finger, the CG will be at its 6-inch point. If you change the weight distribution of the ruler by putting a paper clip on one end, then the balance point (i.e., the CG) shifts toward
the paper clip. Moving from the physical world to the trading world, we can substitute the prices over our window of observation for the units of weight along the ruler. Using this analogy, we see that the CG of the window moves to the right when prices increase sharply. Correspondingly, the CG of the window moves to the left when prices decrease.
The idea of computing the center of gravity of Dr. Ehlers arose from observing how the lags of various finite impulse response (FIR) filters vary according to
the relative amplitude of the filter coefficients. A simple moving average (SMA) is an FIR filter where all the filter coefficients have the same value (usually unity). As a result, the CG of the SMA is exactly in the center of the filter. A weighted moving average (WMA) is an FIR filter where the most recent price is weighted by the length of the filter, the next most recent price is weighted by the length of the filter less 1, and so on. The weighting terms are the filter coefficients. The filter coefficients of a WMA describe the outline of a triangle. It is well known that the CG of a triangle is located at one-third the length of the base of the triangle. In other words, the CG of the WMA has shifted to the right relative to the CG of an SMA of equal length, resulting in less lag. In all FIR filters, the sum of the product of the coefficients and prices must be divided by the sum of the coefficients so that the scale of the original prices is retained.

[blackcat] L2 Ehlers Cyber Cycle Trading StrategyLevel: 2
Background
John F. Ehlers introuced Cyber Cycle Trading Strategy in his "Cybernetic Analysis for Stocks and Futures" chapter 4 on 2004.
Function
With cyber cycle alone, the Trigger lags the Cycle by one bar, so that their crossing introduces at least another bar of lag. Finally, Dr Ehler concluded that we can’t execute the trade until the bar after the signal is observed. In total, that means our trade execution will be at least four bars late. If we are working with an eight-bar cycle, that means the signal will be exactly wrong. We could do better to buy when the signal says sell, and vice versa.
The difficulties arising from the lag suggest a way to build an automatic trading strategy. Suppose we choose to use the trading signal in the opposite direction of the signal. That will work if we can introduce lag so the correct signal will be given in the more general case, not just the case of an eight-bar cycle. Therefore, the Cyber Cycle trading strategy was introduced by Dr. Ehlers. It starts exactly the same as the Cyber Cycle Indicator. Dr. Ehlers then introduce the variable Signal, which is an exponential moving average of the Cycle variable. The exponential moving average generates the desired lag in the trading signal. The relationship between the alpha of an exponential moving average and lag is alpha2 = 1/ (Lag+1). This relationship is used to create the variable alpha2 in the code and the variable Signal using the exponential moving average. The trading signals using the variable Signal crossing itself delayed by one bar are exactly the opposite of the trading signals I would have used if there were no delay. But, since the variable Signal is delayed such that the net delay is less than half a cycle, the trading signals are correct to catch the next cyclic reversal. The idea of betting against the correct direction by waiting for the next cycle reversal can be pretty scary because that reversal may “never” happen because the market takes off in a trend. For this reason Dr. Ehlers included two lines of code that are escape mechanisms if we were wrong in our entry signal. These last two Signal lines of code reverse the trading position if we have been in the trade for more than eight bars and the trade has an open position loss.

Background
John F. Ehlers introuced Cyber Cycle Indicator in his "Cybernetic Analysis for Stocks and Futures" chapter 4 on 2004.
Function
Trading the Cyber Cycle Indicator is straightforward. Buy when the at this point. Sell when the Cycle line crosses under the Trigger line. You are at the bottom of the cycle at this point. Sell when the Cycle line crosses under the Trigger line. You are at the top of the cycle in this case. To be sure, there are crossings at other than the cyclic turning points. Many of these can be eliminated by discretionary traders using their experience or others of their favorite tools. One of the more interesting aspects of the Cyber Cycle is that it was developed simultaneously with the Instantaneous Trendline. They are opposite sides of the same coin because the total frequency content of the market being analyzed is in one indicator or the other. This is important because the conventional methods of using moving averages and oscillators can be dispensed with.

[blackcat] L2 Ehlers ITrendline Trigger Trend-Following SystemLevel: 2
Background
John F. Ehlers introuced the Instantaneous Trendline and the Trigger of the trend-following system in his "Cybernetic Analysis for Stocks and Futures" chapter 3 on 2004.
Function
The process for creating a trendfollowing trading system from the indicators is simple. One unique aspect of the code is that the ITrend is forced to be a finite impulse response (FIR)-smoothed version of price for the first seven bars of the calculation.
This initialization is included to cause the ITrend to converge more rapidly to its correct value from the beginning transient. The strategy enters a long position when the trigger crosses over the Instantaneous Trendline and enters a short position when the trigger crosses under the Instantaneous Trendline. However, an effective trading system is more than following a simple set of indicators.
First, experience has shown that greater profits result from using limit orders rather than market orders or stop orders. Market orders are selfexplanatory. Stop orders mean the market must be going in the direction of the trade before the order is filled. For example, for long-position trades, the stop order must be placed above the current price. Thus, the price must increase from its current level before you get stopped into the long-position trade. This means you necessarily give up some of the profits you would otherwise have gotten if you had entered on a market order at the instant of your signal. You can lose additional profits from stop orders due to slippage.

[blackcat] L2 Ehlers Adaptive Commodity Channel IndexLevel: 2
Background
John F. Ehlers introucedAdaptive Commodity Channel Index in his "Rocket Science for Traders" chapter 21 on 2001.
Function
The Commodity Channel Index (CCI) computes the average of the median price of each bar over the observation period. It also computes the Mean Deviation (MD) from this average. The CCI is formed as the current deviation from the average price normalized to the MD. With a Gaussian probability distribution, 68 percent of all possible outcomes are contained within the first standard deviation from the mean. The CCI is scaled so that values above +l00 are above the upper first
standard deviation from the mean and values below -100 are below the lower first standard deviation from the mean. Multiplying the MD in the code by 0.015 implements this normalization. Many traders use this indicator as an overbought/oversold indicator with 100 or greater indicating that the market is overbought, and -100 or less that the market is oversold. Since the trading channel is being formed by the indicator, the obvious observation period is the same as the cycle length. Since the complete cycle period may not be the universal answer, Dr. Ehlers includes a CycPart input as a modifier. This input allows you to optimize the observation period for each particular situation.

[blackcat] L2 Ehlers Adaptive StochasticLevel: 2
Background
John F. Ehlers introuced Adaptive Stochastic in his "Rocket Science for Traders" chapter 21 on 2001.
Function
The Stochastic measures the current closing price relative to the lowest low over the observation period. It then normalizes this to the range between the highest high and the lowest low over the observation period. If the current closing price is equal to the highest high over the observation period, then the Stochastic has a value of 1. If the current closing price is equal to the lowest low over the observation period, then the Stochastic has a value of zero. These are the limits over which the Stochastic can range. To optimize the Stochastic for the measured cycle, the correct fraction of the cycle to use is one-half, as the Stochastic can
range from its minimum to its maximum on each half cycle of the period. As before, the code for the optimized Stochastic measures the cycle period using the Homodyne Discriminator algorithm and then uses that period as the basis for finding HH and LL and computing the Stochastic. Since half the cycle period may not be the universal answer, we include a CycPart input as a modifier. This input allows you to optimize the observation period for each particular situation. The optimized Stochastic tends to be in phase with the original price data. This suggests a way to turn a good indicator into a great one. If we subtract 50 from the optimized Stochastic, we would get a zero mean and thus tend to have Poisson-like statistics on the Stochastic’s zero crossings. If that were the case, we could smooth the optimized Stochastic and make an Optimum Predictive filter from it. That way we could anticipate signals rather than wait for signals to cross the 20 percent and 80 percent marks for confirmation as is done with the standard indicator. I will leave it to you to decide which method best suits your needs and purposes.

The scripts posted are categorized into 5 levels according to my efforts or manhours put into these works.
Level 1 : interesting script snippets or distinctive improvement from classic indicators or strategy. Level 1 scripts can usually appear in more complex indicators as a function module or element.
Level 2 : composite indicator/strategy. By selecting or combining several independent or dependent functions or sub indicators in proper way, the composite script exhibits a resonance phenomenon which can filter out noise or fake trading signal to enhance trading confidence level.
Level 3 : comprehensive indicator/strategy. They are simple trading systems based on my strategies. They are commonly containing several or all of entry signal, close signal, stop loss, take profit, re-entry, risk management, and position sizing techniques. Even some interesting fundamental and mass psychological aspects are incorporated.
Level 4 : script snippets or functions that do not disclose source code. Interesting element that can reveal market laws and work as raw material for indicators and strategies. If you find Level 1~2 scripts are helpful, Level 4 is a private version that took me far more efforts to develop.
Level 5 : indicator/strategy that do not disclose source code. private version of Level 3 script with my accumulated script processing skills or a large number of custom functions. I had a private function library built in past two years. Level 5 scripts use many of them to achieve private trading strategy.
[blackcat] L2 Ehlers Adaptive Relative Strength IndexLevel: 2
Background
John F. Ehlers introuced Adaptive Relative Strength Index in his "Rocket Science for Traders" chapter 21 on 2001.
Function
The concept of taking a difference of lagging line from the original function to produce a leading function suggests extending the concept to moving averages. There is no direct theory for this, but it seems to work pretty well. If taking a 7-bar WMA of prices, that average lags the prices by 2 bars. If taking a 7-bar WMA of the first average, this second average is delayed another 2 bars. If taking the difference between the two averages and add that difference to the first average, the result should be a smoothed line of the original price function with no lag. Sure, Dr. Ehlers tried to use more lag for the second moving average, which
should produce a better predictive curve. However, remember the lesson of Chapter 3 of the book. An analysis curve cannot precede an event. You cannot predict an event before it occurs. If then taking a 4-bar WMA of the smoothed line to create a 1-bar lag, this lagging line becomes a signal when the lines cross. This is as close to an ideal indicator as we can get.
Key Signal
Predict ---> moving average fast line
Trigger ---> moving average slow line
Pros and Cons
100% John F. Ehlers definition translation of original work, even variable names are the same. This help readers who would like to use pine to read his book. If you had read his works, then you will be quite familiar with my code style.

[blackcat] L2 Ehlers Optimum PredictorLevel: 2
Background
John F. Ehlers introuced Optimum Predictor in his "Rocket Science for Traders" chapter 20 on 2001.
Function
As we have seen before, the majority of the code involves the computation of the period using the Homodyne Discriminator algorithm. Once the period has
been computed, the Optimum Predictor is found in just a few lines of code. First, the minimum-length Hilbert Transformer is used to compute the Detrender2 value from the prices that have been smoothed by the 4-bar Weighted Moving Average (WMA). Detrender2 is smoothed in the 4-bar WMA to produce Smooth2. The alpha of the EMA is computed from the computed period, and the EMA of Smooth2 is taken using that alpha and is called the DetrendEMA. The difference between Smooth2 and the
DetrendEMA is multiplied by 1.4 to produce the Predict phasor. Finally, the Smooth2 and Predict phasors are plotted as indicators.
The Optimum Predictor is plotted as the subgraph below the price chart. Buy and sell signals occur when the Predict and Smooth2 lines cross. Based on Dr. Ehlers comments, most of these signals are indeed prescient. The Optimum Predictor could probably work best in trading systems when used in conjunction with other
rules to eliminate the false signals.
Key Signal
Smooth --> 4 bar WMA w/ 1 bar lag
Detrender --> The amplitude response of a minimum-length HT can be improved by adjusting the filter coefficients by
trial and error. HT does not allow DC component at zero frequency for transformation. So, Detrender is used to remove DC component/ trend component.
Q1 --> Quadrature phase signal
I1 --> In-phase signal
Period --> Dominant Cycle in bars
SmoothPeriod --> Period with complex averaging
Predict --> fast line of optimum predictor
Smooth2 --> slow line of optimum predictor
Pros and Cons
