Dynamic Price Oscillator (Zeiierman)█ Overview
The Dynamic Price Oscillator (DPO) by Zeiierman is designed to gauge the momentum and volatility of asset prices in trading markets. By integrating elements of traditional oscillators with volatility adjustments and Bollinger Bands, the DPO offers a unique approach to understanding market dynamics. This indicator is particularly useful for identifying overbought and oversold conditions, capturing price trends, and detecting potential reversal points.
█ How It Works
The DPO operates by calculating the difference between the current closing price and a moving average of the closing price, adjusted for volatility using the True Range method. This difference is then smoothed over a user-defined period to create the oscillator. Additionally, Bollinger Bands are applied to the oscillator itself, providing visual cues for volatility and potential breakout signals.
█ How to Use
⚪ Trend Confirmation
The DPO can serve as a confirmation tool for existing trends. Traders might look for the oscillator to maintain above or below its mean line to confirm bullish or bearish trends, respectively. A consistent direction in the oscillator's movement alongside price trend can provide additional confidence in the strength and sustainability of the trend.
⚪ Overbought/Oversold Conditions
With the application of Bollinger Bands directly on the oscillator, the DPO can highlight overbought or oversold conditions in a unique manner. When the oscillator moves outside the Bollinger Bands, it signifies an extreme condition.
⚪ Volatility Breakouts
The width of the Bollinger Bands on the oscillator reflects market volatility. Sudden expansions in the bands can indicate a breakout from a consolidation phase, which traders can use to enter trades in the direction of the breakout. Conversely, a contraction suggests a quieter market, which might be a signal for traders to wait or to look for range-bound strategies.
⚪ Momentum Trading
Momentum traders can use the DPO to spot moments when the market momentum is picking up. A sharp move of the oscillator towards either direction, especially when crossing the Bollinger Bands, can indicate the start of a strong price movement.
⚪ Mean Reversion
The DPO is also useful for mean reversion strategies, especially considering its volatility adjustment feature. When the oscillator touches or breaches the Bollinger Bands, it indicates a deviation from the normal price range. Traders might look for opportunities to enter trades anticipating a reversion to the mean.
⚪ Divergence Trading
Divergences between the oscillator and price action can be a powerful signal for reversals. For instance, if the price makes a new high but the oscillator fails to make a corresponding high, it may indicate weakening momentum and a potential reversal. Traders can use these divergence signals to initiate counter-trend moves.
█ Settings
Length: Determines the lookback period for the oscillator and Bollinger Bands calculation. Increasing this value smooths the oscillator and widens the Bollinger Bands, leading to fewer, more significant signals. Decreasing this value makes the oscillator more sensitive to recent price changes, offering more frequent signals but with increased noise.
Smoothing Factor: Adjusts the degree of smoothing applied to the oscillator's calculation. A higher smoothing factor reduces noise, offering clearer trend identification at the cost of signal timeliness. Conversely, a lower smoothing factor increases the oscillator's responsiveness to price movements, which may be useful for short-term trading but at the risk of false signals.

Relative Trend Index (RTI) by Zeiierman█ Overview
The Relative Trend Index (RTI) developed by Zeiierman is an innovative technical analysis tool designed to measure the strength and direction of the market trend. Unlike some traditional indicators, the RTI boasts a distinctive ability to adapt and respond to market volatility, while still minimizing the effects of minor, short-term market fluctuations.
The Relative Trend Index blends trend-following and mean-reverting characteristics, paired with a customizable and intuitive approach to trend strength, and its sensitivity to price action makes this indicator stand out.
█ Benefits of using this RTI instead of RSI
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) and the Relative Trend Index (RTI) are both powerful technical indicators, each with its own unique strengths.
However, there are key differences that make the RTI arguably more sophisticated and precise, especially when it comes to identifying trends and overbought/oversold (OB/OS) areas.
The RSI is a momentum oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements and is typically used to identify overbought and oversold conditions in a market. However, its primary limitation lies in its tendency to produce false signals during extended trending periods.
On the other hand, the RTI is designed specifically to identify and adapt to market trends. Instead of solely focusing on price changes, the RTI measures the relative positioning of the current closing price within its recent range, providing a more comprehensive view of market conditions.
The RTI's adaptable nature is particularly valuable. The user-adjustable sensitivity percentage allows traders to fine-tune the indicator's responsiveness, making it more resilient to sudden market fluctuations and noise that could otherwise produce false signals. This feature is advantageous in various market conditions, from trending to choppy and sideways-moving markets.
Furthermore, the RTI's unique method of defining OB/OS zones takes into account the prevailing trend, which can provide a more precise reflection of the market's condition.
While the RSI is an invaluable tool in many traders' toolkits, the RTI's unique approach to trend identification, adaptability, and enhanced definition of OB/OS zones can provide traders with a more nuanced understanding of market conditions and potential trading opportunities. This makes the RTI an especially powerful tool for those seeking to ride long-term trends and avoid false signals.
█ Calculations
In summary, while simple enough, the math behind the RTI indicator is quite powerful. It combines the quantification of price volatility with the flexibility to adjust the trend sensitivity. It provides a normalized output that can be interpreted consistently across various trading scenarios.
The math behind the Relative Trend Index (RTI) indicator is rooted in some fundamental statistical concepts: Standard Deviation and Percentiles.
Standard Deviation: The Standard Deviation is a measure of dispersion or variability in a dataset. It quantifies the degree to which each data point deviates from the mean (or average) of the data set. In this script, the standard deviation is computed on the 'close' prices over a specified number of periods. This provides a measure of the volatility in the price over that period. The higher the standard deviation, the more volatile the price has been.
Percentiles: The percentile is a measure used in statistics indicating the value below which a given percentage of observations in a group falls. After calculating the upper and lower trends for the last 'length' periods and sorting these values, the script uses the 'Sensitivity ' parameter to extract percentiles from these sorted arrays. This is a powerful concept because it allows us to adjust the sensitivity of our signals. By choosing different percentiles (controlled through the 'Sensitivity' parameter), we can decide whether we want to react only to extreme events (high percentiles) or be more reactive and consider smaller deviations from the norm as significant (lower percentiles).
Finally, the script calculates the Relative Trend Index value, which is essentially a normalized measure indicating where the current price falls between the upper and lower trend values. This simple ratio is incredibly powerful as it provides a standardized measure that can be used across different securities and market conditions to identify potential trading signals.
Core Components
Trend Data Count: This parameter denotes the number of data points used in the RTI's calculation, determining the trend length. A higher count captures a more extended market view (long-term trend), providing smoother results that are more resistant to sudden market changes. In contrast, a lower count focuses on more recent data (short-term trend), yielding faster responses to market changes, albeit at the cost of increased susceptibility to market noise.
Trend Sensitivity Percentage: This parameter is employed to select the indices within the trend arrays used for upper and lower trend definitions. By adjusting this value, users can affect the sensitivity of the trend, with higher percentages leading to a less sensitive trend.
█ How to use
The RTI plots a line that revolves around a mid-point of 50. When the RTI is above 50, it implies that the market trend is bullish (upward), and when it's below 50, it indicates a bearish (downward) trend. Furthermore, the farther the RTI deviates from the 50 line, the stronger the trend is perceived to be.
Bullish
Bearish
The RTI includes user-defined Overbought and Oversold levels. These thresholds suggest potential trading opportunities when they are crossed, serving as a cue for traders to possibly buy or sell. This gives the RTI an additional use case as a mean-reversion tool, in addition to being a trend-following indicator.
In short
Trend Confirmation and Reversals: If the percentage trend value is consistently closer to the upper level, it can indicate a strong uptrend. Similarly, if it's closer to the lower level, a downtrend may be in play. If the percentage trend line begins to move away from one trend line towards the other, it could suggest a potential trend reversal.
Identifying Overbought and Oversold Conditions: When the percentage trend value reaches the upper trend line (signified by a value of 1), it suggests an overbought condition - i.e., the price has been pushed up, perhaps too far, and could be due for a pullback, or indicating a strong positive trend. Conversely, when the percentage trend value hits the lower trend line (a value of 0), it indicates an oversold condition - the price may have been driven down and could be set to rebound, or indicate a strong negative trend. Traders often use these overbought and oversold signals as contrarian indicators, considering them potential signs to sell (in overbought conditions) or buy (in oversold conditions). If the RTI line remains overbought or oversold for an extended period, it indicates a strong trend in that direction.
█ Settings
One key feature of the RTI is its configurability. It allows users to set the trend data length and trend sensitivity.
The trend data length represents the number of data points used in the trend calculation. A longer trend data length will reflect a more long-term trend, whereas a shorter trend data length will capture short-term movements.
Trend sensitivity refers to the threshold for determining what constitutes a significant trend. High sensitivity levels will deem fewer price movements as significant, hence making the trend less sensitive. Conversely, low sensitivity levels will deem more price movements as significant, hence making the trend more sensitive.
