RSI w/Hann Windowing

4 May 2024

This RSI by John Ehlers of "Yet Another" Improved RSI. Taking advantage of the Hann windowing. As seen on PRC and published by John Ehlers, it has a zero mean and appears smoother than the classic RSI. In his own words " I prefer oscillator-type indicators to have a zero mean. We can achieve this simply by multiplying the classic RSI by 2 so it swings from 0 to 2, and then subtract 1 from the product so the indicator swings from -1 to +1." Ehlers goes on to say " Bear in mind 14 may not be the best length to analysis. So, the best length to use for the RSIH indicator is on the order of the dominant cycle period of the data."

This indicator works well with both bullish and bearish divergences. It also works well with oversold and overbought indications. Shown by the Red zone on top (Overbought) and the green zone on the bottom(oversold). Each which have an adjustable buffer zone. You may need to adjust the length of the RSIH to suit your asset. There are also multiply signal line's to choose from. Also take note of when the RSIH crosses up or down on the signal line.

None of this is financial advice.
