# CG: Center of Gravity
## Overview and Purpose
> "The market's center of mass reveals where momentum shifts before price does."
The Center of Gravity (CG) indicator, developed by John Ehlers, is a cycle analysis tool that uses the physics concept of center of gravity to identify cycle turning points in financial markets. By calculating the balance point of price data over a specified period, the indicator creates an oscillator that can help traders anticipate potential reversal points in market cycles.
The Center of Gravity (CG) oscillator, developed by John Ehlers, identifies potential turning points in price action using the physics concept of weighted center of mass. It leads price movement, making it particularly useful for timing entries and exits before traditional indicators signal.
Unlike traditional moving averages that simply smooth price data, the Center of Gravity indicator treats price data as masses distributed over time and calculates where the "balance point" would be. This approach provides insights into the distribution of price momentum within the lookback period.
## Historical Context
## Core Concepts
John Ehlers introduced the Center of Gravity oscillator in his 2002 book "Cybernetic Analysis for Stocks and Futures." Ehlers, an electrical engineer turned trader, applied signal processing concepts to financial markets, creating indicators with minimal lag.
* **Physics-based approach:** Uses the center of gravity concept from physics where each price point represents a mass and the indicator finds the balance point
* **Oscillating indicator:** Provides an oscillator that fluctuates around zero based on price distribution
* **Cycle identification:** Particularly effective at identifying shifts in the dominant cycle within the lookback period
* **Zero-line analysis:** Oscillates around zero with crossovers indicating potential cycle phase changes
The CG oscillator draws from physics: just as the center of gravity of an object determines its balance point, the CG of price determines where momentum is concentrated. When prices cluster toward recent values (uptrend), CG is positive; when prices cluster toward older values (downtrend), CG is negative.
The core innovation of this indicator is its ability to measure where the "weight" of price data is concentrated within the lookback period, providing insights into market momentum distribution.
Unlike momentum oscillators that react to price changes, CG measures the distribution of price within the lookback window, providing leading rather than lagging signals.
## Common Settings and Parameters
## Architecture & Physics
| Parameter | Default | Function | When to Adjust |
| ------ | ------ | ------ | ------ |
| Length | 10 | Controls the lookback period for the Center of Gravity calculation | Increase for longer cycles and smoother signals, decrease for shorter cycles and more responsive signals |
| Source | source | Data source for calculation | Typically uses close; hlc3 provides balanced representation; hl2 for range-based analysis |
The CG indicator uses a sliding window (RingBuffer) to maintain price history and calculates a weighted center of mass that oscillates around zero.
**Pro Tip:** The optimal length setting often correlates with the dominant cycle length in the market. Start with shorter periods (8-14) for active markets and longer periods (20-30) for smoother, longer-term cycle identification.
### Core Components
## Calculation and Mathematical Foundation
1. **RingBuffer**: Maintains the sliding window of `period` values
2. **Weighted Sum (Numerator)**: Sum of position-weighted prices
3. **Simple Sum (Denominator)**: Sum of all prices in window
4. **Center Offset**: Subtracts the midpoint to center oscillation at zero
**Simplified explanation:**
The Center of Gravity calculates where the "balance point" would be if each price in the lookback period was treated as a mass at its time position. The result is then normalized to oscillate around zero by subtracting the theoretical center point.
### Calculation Flow
**Technical formula:**
The Center of Gravity is calculated as:
For each update:
1. Add new price to buffer
2. Compute weighted sum: Σ(position × price)
3. Compute simple sum: Σ(price)
4. Calculate center: weighted_sum / simple_sum
5. Subtract midpoint: result - (period + 1) / 2
CG = [Σ(i × Price[i-1]) / Σ(Price[i-1])] - (Length + 1) / 2
## Mathematical Foundation
Where:
* i ranges from 1 to Length (representing position weights)
* Price[i-1] is the price at position i-1 bars ago (current bar when i=1)
* The subtraction of (Length + 1) / 2 centers the oscillator around zero
* This represents the "balance point" where price data would be in equilibrium
### Center of Gravity Formula
The calculation process:
```
numerator = Σ(i × Price[i-1]) for i = 1 to Length
denominator = Σ(Price[i-1]) for i = 1 to Length
raw_cg = numerator / denominator
CG = raw_cg - (Length + 1) / 2
```
The CG at time $t$ is calculated as:
> 🔍 **Technical Note:** The algorithm calculates the weighted average position of prices, then subtracts the theoretical center point to create an oscillator. When prices are distributed evenly, CG equals zero. When recent prices dominate, CG becomes positive; when older prices dominate, CG becomes negative.
$$ CG_t = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^{n} i \cdot P_{t-n+i}}{\sum_{i=1}^{n} P_{t-n+i}} - \frac{n + 1}{2} $$
## Interpretation Details
where:
The Center of Gravity indicator provides several analytical perspectives:
- $n$ is the period (lookback length)
- $P_{t-n+i}$ is the price at position $i$ within the window
- $i$ ranges from 1 (oldest) to $n$ (newest)
* **Zero-line crossovers:**
* Crossing above zero: Suggests recent prices have more weight (potential upward momentum)
* Crossing below zero: Suggests older prices have more weight (potential downward momentum)
* Multiple crossovers may indicate choppy, non-trending conditions
### Numerator (Weighted Sum)
* **Extreme readings:**
* High positive values: Recent prices significantly outweigh older prices
* High negative values: Older prices significantly outweigh recent prices
* The magnitude indicates the strength of the price distribution bias
$$ Num = \sum_{i=1}^{n} i \cdot P_i = 1 \cdot P_1 + 2 \cdot P_2 + \ldots + n \cdot P_n $$
* **Divergence analysis:**
* Bullish divergence: Price makes lower lows while CG makes higher lows
* Bearish divergence: Price makes higher highs while CG makes lower highs
* These divergences can indicate potential shifts in price momentum
Recent prices (higher $i$) contribute more to the weighted sum.
* **Mean reversion characteristics:**
* CG tends to oscillate around zero over time
* Extreme readings often precede moves back toward the center line
* Can be used to identify potential reversal points
### Denominator (Simple Sum)
## Limitations and Considerations
$$ Den = \sum_{i=1}^{n} P_i $$
* **Market conditions:** Most effective in cyclical markets; may provide less clear signals during strong trending periods
* **Whipsaw potential:** Can generate false signals during low-volatility, range-bound conditions
* **Parameter sensitivity:** Length setting significantly affects responsiveness and noise levels
* **Interpretation complexity:** Requires understanding of the balance point concept for proper interpretation
* **Complementary tools:** Best used with trend identification tools and volume confirmation for optimal results
### Center with Zero Offset
The Center of Gravity works best when combined with other cycle analysis tools and should be part of a broader trading system that includes trend and momentum confirmation.
$$ CG = \begin{cases}
\frac{Num}{Den} - \frac{n + 1}{2} & \text{if } Den \neq 0 \\
0 & \text{if } Den = 0
\end{cases} $$
The subtraction of $(n + 1) / 2$ centers the oscillator at zero. Without this offset, CG would oscillate around the midpoint value.
### Properties
- **Range**: Approximately $\pm \frac{n-1}{2}$ depending on price distribution
- **Zero Crossing**: Indicates potential trend reversal
- **Positive Values**: Recent prices dominate (uptrend momentum)
- **Negative Values**: Older prices dominate (downtrend momentum)
- **Zero Value**: Prices evenly distributed (neutral momentum)
### Example Calculation
For prices [10, 12, 11, 13, 15] with period 5:
$$
Num = 1 \times 10 + 2 \times 12 + 3 \times 11 + 4 \times 13 + 5 \times 15 = 194
$$
$$
Den = 10 + 12 + 11 + 13 + 15 = 61
$$
$$
CG = \frac{194}{61} - \frac{5 + 1}{2} = 3.180 - 3.0 = 0.180
$$
The positive value indicates recent prices are weighted higher (uptrend bias).
## Performance Profile
### Operation Count (Streaming Mode, per Bar)
| Metric | Score | Notes |
| :--- | :--- | :--- |
| **Throughput** | ~15 ns/bar | O(1) with running sums |
| **Allocations** | 0 | Zero-allocation in hot path |
| **Complexity** | O(1) streaming | Recalculation O(N) on bar correction |
| **Accuracy** | 10 | Exact calculation, no approximations |
| Operation | Count | Cost (cycles) | Subtotal |
| :--- | :---: | :---: | :---: |
| ADD/SUB | n+1 | 1 | n+1 |
| MUL | n | 3 | 3n |
| DIV | 1 | 15 | 15 |
| **Total** | **2n+2** | — | **~4n+16 cycles** |
### Operation Count (per update)
*Where n = Length (default 10)*
**Default (n=10):** ~56 cycles per bar
**Breakdown:**
- Weighted sum Σ(i × price): n MUL + (n-1) ADD = 40 cycles
- Price sum Σ(price): (n-1) ADD = 9 cycles
- Division + centering: 1 DIV + 1 SUB = 16 cycles
### Complexity Analysis
| Mode | Complexity | Notes |
| Operation | Count | Notes |
| :--- | :---: | :--- |
| Streaming | O(n) | Full window iteration required (position weights) |
| Batch | O(n×m) | n = length, m = bars |
**Memory**: ~n×8 bytes (price buffer for lookback)
### SIMD Analysis
| Optimization | Applicable | Notes |
| :--- | :---: | :--- |
| AVX2 vectorization | ✅ | Weighted sum is dot product with constant weights |
| FMA | ✅ | `i × price + running_sum` pattern |
| Batch parallelism | ✅ | FIR structure allows full vectorization |
**SIMD Speedup (AVX2):** For n=10, weighted sum reduces from 10 MUL to ~2 vector ops (~5× speedup on dot product). Pre-computed weight vector [1,2,3,...,n] enables efficient `vfmadd` chains.
| ADD/SUB | ~6 | Running sum updates |
| MUL | ~2 | Position weighting |
| DIV | 2 | Center and offset calculation |
### Quality Metrics
| Metric | Score | Notes |
| :--- | :---: | :--- |
| **Accuracy** | 10/10 | Exact weighted centroid calculation |
| **Timeliness** | 7/10 | FIR introduces group delay ≈ n/2 |
| **Overshoot** | 6/10 | Linear weights can amplify recent volatility |
| **Smoothness** | 7/10 | Moderate smoothing from averaging |
| **Accuracy** | 10/10 | Exact weighted average |
| **Timeliness** | 9/10 | Leads price by design |
| **Overshoot** | 6/10 | Can overshoot at extremes |
| **Smoothness** | 7/10 | Some noise; often paired with signal line |
## Validation
| Library | Status | Notes |
| :--- | :--- | :--- |
| **TA-Lib** | N/A | Not available in TA-Lib |
| **Skender** | N/A | Not available in Skender |
| **Tulip** | N/A | Not available in Tulip |
| **PineScript** | ✅ | Validated against original ta.cg() |
CG is validated through mathematical properties:
- Constant price produces zero CG
- Linear uptrend produces positive CG
- Linear downtrend produces negative CG
- Values bounded by approximately ±(period-1)/2
## Common Pitfalls
1. **Period Selection**: Too short periods produce noisy signals; too long periods reduce responsiveness. Ehlers recommended 10 as a starting point.
2. **Signal Line**: CG is often smoothed with a 3-period SMA signal line. Trading raw CG crossings may produce false signals.
3. **Zero Line Crossings**: Not all zero crossings are tradeable. Confirm with price action or additional filters.
4. **Trending Markets**: In strong trends, CG may stay positive/negative for extended periods. Zero crossing may not occur until trend exhaustion.
5. **Flat Markets**: During consolidation, CG oscillates around zero without clear direction, producing whipsaws.
6. **Warmup Period**: CG requires a full window (`period` values) before producing reliable signals.
## Usage
```csharp
using QuanTAlib;
// Create a 10-period CG indicator
var cg = new Cg(period: 10);
// Update with new values
var result = cg.Update(new TValue(DateTime.UtcNow, 100.0));
// Access the last calculated CG value
Console.WriteLine($"CG: {cg.Last.Value}");
// Chained usage
var source = new TSeries();
var cgChained = new Cg(source, period: 10);
// Static batch calculation
var output = Cg.Calculate(source, period: 10);
// Span-based calculation
Span<double> outputSpan = stackalloc double[source.Count];
Cg.Batch(source.Values, outputSpan, period: 10);
```
## Applications
### Trend Reversal Detection
CG zero crossings often precede price reversals:
- CG crosses above zero: potential bullish reversal
- CG crosses below zero: potential bearish reversal
### Divergence Analysis
Like other oscillators, CG divergences from price can signal weakening trends:
- Price makes higher high, CG makes lower high: bearish divergence
- Price makes lower low, CG makes higher low: bullish divergence
### Momentum Confirmation
Use CG to confirm trend strength:
- Rising CG in uptrend: momentum supporting trend
- Falling CG in uptrend: momentum weakening, potential reversal
### Cycle Analysis
CG's leading nature makes it useful for timing cycle turns in conjunction with other Ehlers indicators.
## Signal Line Strategy
A common approach pairs CG with a trigger line:
```csharp
var cg = new Cg(10);
var trigger = new Sma(3); // 3-period smoothing of CG
// After updates:
double cgValue = cg.Last.Value;
double triggerValue = trigger.Update(cg.Last).Value;
// Buy when CG crosses above trigger
// Sell when CG crosses below trigger
```

# DSP: Detrended Synthetic Price
## Overview and Purpose
> "Remove the trend, reveal the cycles."
The Detrended Synthetic Price (DSP) is a cycle analysis indicator developed by John Ehlers that isolates the cyclical component of price action by subtracting a slower-period EMA from a faster-period EMA. Introduced in his work on digital signal processing for traders, DSP creates a band-pass filter effect that removes both long-term trends and short-term noise, revealing the dominant market cycle.
The Detrended Synthetic Price (DSP) indicator, developed by John Ehlers, is a cycle analysis tool that removes trend components to expose underlying price cycles. By differencing two exponential moving averages (fast and slow), DSP creates a zero-centered oscillator that highlights momentum shifts.
Unlike traditional detrending methods that use high-pass filters, Ehlers' DSP uses the difference between a quarter-cycle EMA and a half-cycle EMA relative to the dominant cycle period. This creates an in-phase output that oscillates around zero, with the amplitude and frequency revealing information about cycle strength and timing. The quarter-cycle smoother responds quickly to price changes while the half-cycle smoother provides the baseline reference, and their difference creates the band-pass effect.
## Historical Context
DSP serves as both a standalone cycle indicator and a foundational component for more advanced Ehlers indicators. By isolating the dominant cycle component, it provides a clearer view of market rhythms without the contamination of longer-term trends or higher-frequency noise.
John Ehlers introduced the Detrended Synthetic Price as part of his cycle analysis toolkit. The indicator builds on the MACD concept but uses EMA periods derived from cycle theory: quarter-cycle (fast) and half-cycle (slow) lengths. This mathematical relationship helps isolate cycle components while suppressing trend noise.
## Core Concepts
The "synthetic" in the name refers to how DSP synthesizes a detrended view of price by subtracting the slower-reacting EMA from the faster one. When the fast EMA exceeds the slow EMA, price momentum is bullish; when below, momentum is bearish.
* **Dual-EMA Structure:** Uses two independent EMAs at quarter-cycle (P/4) and half-cycle (P/2) periods derived from the dominant cycle
* **Band-Pass Effect:** Quarter-cycle minus half-cycle creates a filter that passes the dominant cycle while attenuating trends and noise
* **In-Phase Output:** The resulting oscillator is in-phase with the dominant cycle, providing clear timing signals
* **Zero-Crossing Analysis:** Oscillations around zero line reveal cycle phase and potential reversal points
* **Cycle Isolation:** Mathematically isolates the periodic component that matches the specified dominant cycle period
Unlike traditional oscillators that bound between fixed levels, DSP oscillates around zero with amplitude proportional to price volatility and cycle strength.
## Common Settings and Parameters
## Architecture & Physics
| Parameter | Default | Function | When to Adjust |
| ------ | ------ | ------ | ------ |
| Source | source | Data source for calculation | Use `close` for end-of-bar analysis, `hlc3` for balanced price representation |
| Dominant Cycle Period | 40 | Period used to calculate quarter-cycle and half-cycle EMAs | Should match actual market cycle: 20-30 for faster cycles, 40-50 for standard, 60-80 for slower cycles |
DSP uses dual EMA smoothing with bias correction during warmup to produce accurate values from the first bar.
**Pro Tip:** The Dominant Cycle Period should ideally be obtained from HT_DCPERIOD or other cycle measurement tools for adaptive behavior. For fixed analysis, 40 bars works well for daily charts (approximates a 2-month cycle). The quarter-cycle EMA (P/4 = 10) responds to short-term moves while the half-cycle EMA (P/2 = 20) provides the baseline, creating the band-pass effect.
### Core Components
## Calculation and Mathematical Foundation
1. **Period Parameter**: Base cycle length (default 40)
2. **Fast EMA**: Smoothing with period = max(2, round(period/4)) - quarter cycle
3. **Slow EMA**: Smoothing with period = max(3, round(period/2)) - half cycle
4. **Bias Correction**: Warmup decay factors eliminate EMA initialization bias
5. **State Record**: Maintains EMA values and warmup factors for rollback support
**Simplified explanation:**
DSP calculates two EMAs at periods that are fractions of the dominant cycle (quarter and half), then subtracts the slower from the faster to create an oscillator that isolates the cyclical component.
### Period Derivation
**Technical formula:**
For period = 40:
- Fast period = max(2, round(40/4)) = 10
- Slow period = max(3, round(40/2)) = 20
1. Calculate quarter-cycle and half-cycle periods from dominant cycle:
```
Fast_Period = round(Period / 4)
Slow_Period = round(Period / 2)
```
For period = 4 (minimum):
- Fast period = max(2, round(4/4)) = max(2, 1) = 2
- Slow period = max(3, round(4/2)) = max(3, 2) = 3
2. Calculate alpha values for both EMAs:
```
Alpha_Fast = 2 / (Fast_Period + 1)
Alpha_Slow = 2 / (Slow_Period + 1)
```
### Calculation Flow
3. Apply exponential smoothing with warmup compensation:
```
EMA_Fast = EMA(Price, Fast_Period)
EMA_Slow = EMA(Price, Slow_Period)
```
For each update:
1. Calculate fast alpha: $\alpha_f = 2 / (p_f + 1)$
2. Calculate slow alpha: $\alpha_s = 2 / (p_s + 1)$
3. Update fast EMA with bias correction
4. Update slow EMA with bias correction
5. DSP = corrected_fast_ema - corrected_slow_ema
4. Calculate DSP as the difference:
```
DSP = EMA_Fast - EMA_Slow
```
## Mathematical Foundation
> 🔍 **Technical Note:** The implementation uses unified warmup compensation to ensure both EMAs produce valid outputs from bar 1. The quarter-cycle EMA provides rapid response to price changes while the half-cycle EMA establishes the reference baseline. Their difference creates a band-pass filter centered on the dominant cycle period, effectively removing both low-frequency trends (longer than the cycle) and high-frequency noise (shorter than the cycle).
### EMA Alpha Calculation
## Interpretation Details
$$
\alpha = \frac{2}{period + 1}
$$
DSP provides cycle-focused market analysis through the isolated cyclical component:
For fast period 10: $\alpha_f = \frac{2}{11} \approx 0.1818$
* **Zero-Line Crossovers:**
* Cross above zero: Cycle entering positive phase, potential bullish swing point
* Cross below zero: Cycle entering negative phase, potential bearish swing point
* Frequency of crossings indicates cycle period accuracy
For slow period 20: $\alpha_s = \frac{2}{21} \approx 0.0952$
* **Amplitude Analysis:**
* Larger oscillations: Stronger cycle component, more pronounced market rhythm
* Smaller oscillations: Weaker cycle, market transitioning or range-bound
* Amplitude expansion signals increasing cycle strength
* Amplitude contraction signals decreasing cycle strength
### EMA Update (with bias correction)
* **Cycle Phase Identification:**
* Peak values: Cycle approaching maximum (consider taking profits on longs)
* Trough values: Cycle approaching minimum (consider taking profits on shorts)
* Rate of change indicates cycle acceleration/deceleration
* Zero crossings mark quarter-cycle phase transitions
The raw EMA recursion:
* **Trend vs Cycle:**
* Regular oscillations with consistent amplitude: Strong cyclic behavior
* Irregular oscillations or bias to one side: Trend component present
* Dampening oscillations: Cycle weakening, possible trend emergence
* Amplifying oscillations: Cycle strengthening, rhythmic behavior dominant
$$
EMA^{raw}_t = \alpha \cdot P_t + (1 - \alpha) \cdot EMA^{raw}_{t-1}
$$
## Limitations and Considerations
The warmup decay factor tracks bias:
* **Period Dependency:** Effectiveness depends on correct Dominant Cycle Period setting relative to actual market cycles
* **Cycle Variability:** Market cycles are not perfectly periodic; DSP reveals approximate rhythms that can shift over time
* **Trend Sensitivity:** During strong trends, the oscillator may show persistent bias rather than symmetric oscillations
* **Lag Component:** EMAs introduce some lag, though the dual-EMA structure minimizes this compared to single moving averages
* **Requires Cycle Knowledge:** Best results when dominant cycle period is known (use HT_DCPERIOD for adaptive approach)
* **Not Predictive Alone:** Shows current cycle state; combine with other tools for timing and confirmation
$$
e_t = (1 - \alpha) \cdot e_{t-1}
$$
Starting with $e_0 = 1$, this converges to 0 as the EMA warms up.
The bias-corrected EMA:
$$
EMA_t = \frac{EMA^{raw}_t}{1 - e_t}
$$
### DSP Formula
$$
DSP_t = EMA^{fast}_t - EMA^{slow}_t
$$
where both EMAs are bias-corrected.
### Properties
- **Range**: Unbounded, oscillates around zero
- **Zero Crossing**: Indicates momentum shift
- **Positive Values**: Fast EMA > Slow EMA (bullish momentum)
- **Negative Values**: Fast EMA < Slow EMA (bearish momentum)
- **Warmup**: IsHot when $e_{slow} < 0.05$ (5% remaining bias)
### Example Calculation
For period = 40 with constant price 100:
After warmup, both EMAs converge to 100:
- Fast EMA = 100
- Slow EMA = 100
- DSP = 100 - 100 = 0
For uptrend (price rising steadily):
- Fast EMA responds quicker, stays closer to current price
- Slow EMA lags behind
- DSP > 0 (positive momentum)

## Validation

| **TA-Lib** | N/A | Not available in TA-Lib |

| **PineScript** | ✅ | Validated against original DSP implementation |
DSP is validated through mathematical properties:
- Constant price produces zero DSP
- Uptrend produces positive DSP
- Downtrend produces negative DSP
- Oscillates around zero for cyclic price patterns
## Common Pitfalls
1. **Period Selection**: The period parameter represents the dominant cycle length. Use half the detected cycle period for optimal results. Default 40 works for daily data.
2. **Comparison to MACD**: DSP differs from MACD in period derivation. MACD uses arbitrary 12/26 periods; DSP uses cycle-theory-based period/4 and period/2.
3. **Warmup Behavior**: DSP includes bias correction, so early values are usable. IsHot indicates when the slow EMA bias drops below 5%.
4. **Amplitude Interpretation**: DSP amplitude scales with price level. A $1 stock and $100 stock with identical percentage moves will have 100x different DSP amplitudes.
5. **Zero Crossings**: Not all zero crossings are tradeable. Use in conjunction with cycle analysis or additional confirmation.
6. **Trending Markets**: In strong trends, DSP stays positive or negative for extended periods. Cycle analysis is most effective in ranging markets.
## Usage
```csharp
using QuanTAlib;
// Create a 40-period DSP indicator
var dsp = new Dsp(period: 40);
// Update with new values
var result = dsp.Update(new TValue(DateTime.UtcNow, 100.0));
// Access the last calculated DSP value
Console.WriteLine($"DSP: {dsp.Last.Value}");
// Chained usage
var source = new TSeries();
var dspChained = new Dsp(source, period: 40);
// Static batch calculation
var output = Dsp.Calculate(source, period: 40);
// Span-based calculation
Span<double> outputSpan = stackalloc double[source.Count];
Dsp.Batch(source.Values, outputSpan, period: 40);
```
## Applications
### Cycle Detection
DSP zero crossings help identify cycle turning points:
- DSP crosses above zero: cycle trough (potential buy)
- DSP crosses below zero: cycle peak (potential sell)
### Trend Filtering
Use DSP sign to filter trades with trend direction:
- DSP > 0: Only take long trades
- DSP < 0: Only take short trades
### Momentum Confirmation
DSP slope confirms momentum strength:
- Rising DSP: Increasing bullish momentum
- Falling DSP: Increasing bearish momentum
### Divergence Analysis
Like other oscillators, DSP divergences signal potential reversals:
- Price higher high, DSP lower high: bearish divergence
- Price lower low, DSP higher low: bullish divergence

/// EACP: Ehlers Autocorrelation Periodogram - Dominant cycle estimator using
/// autocorrelation and spectral analysis via the Wiener-Khinchin theorem.
/// </summary>
/// <remarks>
/// The Autocorrelation Periodogram indicator, developed by John Ehlers, estimates
/// the dominant cycle period in price data by computing autocorrelation coefficients
/// and transforming them to the frequency domain using DFT principles.
///
/// Algorithm:
/// 1. High-pass filter removes DC offset and low-frequency trend
/// 2. Super-smoother filter reduces high-frequency noise
/// 3. Pearson correlation coefficients computed for each lag
/// 4. DFT converts correlation to power spectrum
/// 5. Smoothed power spectrum identifies dominant frequency
/// 6. Weighted average of high-power periods yields dominant cycle
///
/// Properties:
/// - Returns estimated dominant cycle period
/// - Also provides normalized power at dominant period
/// - Enhance mode applies cubic emphasis to highlight peaks
/// - Self-calibrating via adaptive maximum power tracking
///
/// Key Insight:
/// Autocorrelation naturally detects periodicity as a signal correlates with
/// its own lagged values. The Wiener-Khinchin theorem relates autocorrelation
/// to spectral density, enabling frequency domain analysis.

# EACP: Ehlers Autocorrelation Periodogram
## Overview and Purpose
> "The autocorrelation periodogram uses the Wiener-Khinchin theorem to transform autocorrelation into spectral density, revealing the dominant cycle hidden within price noise."
Developed by John F. Ehlers (Technical Analysis of Stocks & Commodities, Sep 2016), the Ehlers Autocorrelation Periodogram (EACP) estimates the dominant market cycle by projecting normalized autocorrelation coefficients onto Fourier basis functions. The indicator blends a roofing filter (high-pass + Super Smoother) with a compact periodogram, yielding low-latency dominant cycle detection suitable for adaptive trading systems. Compared with Hilbert-based methods, the autocorrelation approach resists aliasing and maintains stability in noisy price data.
The Ehlers Autocorrelation Periodogram (EACP) is a sophisticated cycle detection algorithm that estimates the dominant market cycle period by computing autocorrelation coefficients and transforming them to the frequency domain via discrete Fourier transform (DFT). Unlike simple period detectors, EACP leverages the mathematical relationship between autocorrelation and power spectral density to identify cyclical behavior even in noisy price data.
EACP answers a central question in cycle analysis: “What period currently dominates the market?” It prioritizes spectral power concentration, enabling downstream tools (adaptive moving averages, oscillators) to adjust responsively without the lag present in sliding-window techniques.
## Historical Context
## Core Concepts
John Ehlers introduced the Autocorrelation Periodogram in his work on digital signal processing applied to trading. The algorithm addresses a fundamental challenge: market cycles are not stationary, and their periods change over time. Traditional Fourier analysis assumes stationarity, making it poorly suited for adaptive cycle detection.
* **Roofing Filter:** High-pass plus Super Smoother combination removes low-frequency drift while limiting aliasing.
* **Pearson Autocorrelation:** Computes normalized lag correlation to remove amplitude bias.
* **Fourier Projection:** Sums cosine and sine terms of autocorrelation to approximate spectral energy.
* **Gain Normalization:** Automatic gain control prevents stale peaks from dominating power estimates.
* **Warmup Compensation:** Exponential correction guarantees valid output from the very first bar.
Ehlers' insight was to use the Wiener-Khinchin theorem, which states that the autocorrelation function and power spectral density are Fourier transform pairs. By computing autocorrelation coefficients at various lags and transforming them via DFT, the algorithm produces a power spectrum that reveals dominant frequencies (cycle periods) in the data.
## Implementation Notes
The implementation here follows Ehlers' PineScript version, which includes:
- High-pass filtering to remove DC offset and low-frequency trends
- Super-smoother filtering to reduce high-frequency noise
- Pearson correlation for lag-based autocorrelation
- DFT conversion to power spectrum
- Adaptive maximum power tracking with decay
- Optional cubic enhancement to sharpen spectral peaks
**This is not a strict implementation of the TASC September 2016 specification.** It is a more advanced evolution combining the core 2016 concept with techniques Ehlers introduced later. The fundamental Wiener-Khinchin theorem (power spectral density = Fourier transform of autocorrelation) is correctly implemented, but key implementation details differ:
## Architecture & Physics
### Differences from Original 2016 TASC Article
### 1. High-Pass Filter
1. **Dominant Cycle Calculation:**
* **2016 TASC:** Uses peak-finding to identify the period with maximum power
* **This Implementation:** Uses Center of Gravity (COG) weighted average over bins where power ≥ 0.5
* **Rationale:** COG provides smoother transitions and reduces susceptibility to noise spikes
The high-pass filter removes DC offset and low-frequency trend components that would otherwise dominate the autocorrelation:
2. **Roofing Filter:**
* **2016 TASC:** Simple first-order high-pass filter
* **This Implementation:** Canonical 2-pole high-pass with √2 factor followed by Super Smoother bandpass
* **Formula:** `hp := (1-α/2)²·(p-2p[1]+p[2]) + 2(1-α)·hp[1] - (1-α)²·hp[2]`
* **Rationale:** Evolved filtering provides better attenuation and phase characteristics
$$
\alpha_{HP} = \frac{\cos(\theta) + \sin(\theta) - 1}{\cos(\theta)}
$$
3. **Normalized Power Reporting:**
* **2016 TASC:** Reports peak power across all periods
* **This Implementation:** Reports power specifically at the dominant period
* **Rationale:** Provides more meaningful correlation between dominant cycle strength and normalized power
where $\theta = \sqrt{2} \cdot \frac{\pi}{\text{maxPeriod}}$
4. **Automatic Gain Control (AGC):**
* Uses decay factor `K = 10^(-0.15/diff)` where `diff = maxPeriod - minPeriod`
* Ensures K < 1 for proper exponential decay of historical peaks
* Prevents stale peaks from dominating current power estimates
The filter is a second-order IIR:
### Performance Characteristics
$$
HP_t = (1 - \frac{\alpha_{HP}}{2})^2 (P_t - 2P_{t-1} + P_{t-2}) + 2(1 - \alpha_{HP})HP_{t-1} - (1 - \alpha_{HP})^2 HP_{t-2}
$$
* **Complexity:** O(N²) where N = (maxPeriod - minPeriod)
* **Implementation:** Uses `var` arrays with native PineScript historical operator `[offset]`
* **Warmup:** Exponential compensation (§2 pattern) ensures valid output from bar 1
### 2. Super-Smoother Filter
### Related Implementations
The super-smoother removes high-frequency noise while preserving cyclical content:
This refined approach aligns with:
* TradingView TASC 2025.02 implementation by blackcat1402
* Modern Ehlers cycle analysis techniques post-2016
* Evolved filtering methods from *Cycle Analytics for Traders*
$$
a_1 = e^{-\sqrt{2} \cdot \pi / \text{minPeriod}}
$$
The code is mathematically sound and production-ready, representing a refined version of the autocorrelation periodogram concept rather than a literal translation of the 2016 article.
$$
b_1 = 2 a_1 \cos\left(\sqrt{2} \cdot \frac{\pi}{\text{minPeriod}}\right)
$$
## Common Settings and Parameters
$$
c_1 = 1 - c_2 - c_3, \quad c_2 = b_1, \quad c_3 = -a_1^2
$$
| Parameter | Default | Function | When to Adjust |
| ------ | ------ | ------ | ------ |
| Min Period | 8 | Lower bound of candidate cycles | Increase to ignore microstructure noise; decrease for scalping. |
| Max Period | 48 | Upper bound of candidate cycles | Increase for swing analysis; decrease for intraday focus. |
| Autocorrelation Length | 3 | Averaging window for Pearson correlation | Set to 0 to match lag, or enlarge for smoother spectra. |
| Enhance Resolution | true | Cubic emphasis to highlight peaks | Disable when a flatter spectrum is desired for diagnostics. |
$$
F_t = \frac{c_1}{2}(HP_t + HP_{t-1}) + c_2 F_{t-1} + c_3 F_{t-2}
$$
**Pro Tip:** Keep `(maxPeriod - minPeriod)` ≤ 64 to control $O(n^2)$ inner loops and maintain responsiveness on lower timeframes.
### 3. Pearson Autocorrelation
## Calculation and Mathematical Foundation
For each lag $\ell$ from 2 to maxPeriod, compute the Pearson correlation between the filtered series and its lagged version:
**Explanation:**
1. Apply roofing filter to `source` using coefficients $\alpha_1$, $a_1$, $b_1$, $c_1$, $c_2$, $c_3$.
2. For each lag $L$ compute Pearson correlation $r_L$ over window $M$ (default $L$).
3. For each period $p$, project onto Fourier basis:
$C_p=\sum_{n=2}^{N} r_n \cos\left(\frac{2\pi n}{p}\right)$ and $S_p=\sum_{n=2}^{N} r_n \sin\left(\frac{2\pi n}{p}\right)$.
4. Power $P_p=C_p^2+S_p^2$, smoothed then normalized via adaptive peak tracking.
5. Dominant cycle $D=\frac{\sum p\,\tilde P_p}{\sum \tilde P_p}$ over bins where $\tilde P_p≥0.5$, warmup-compensated.
$$
r_\ell = \frac{n \sum x_i y_i - \sum x_i \sum y_i}{\sqrt{(n \sum x_i^2 - (\sum x_i)^2)(n \sum y_i^2 - (\sum y_i)^2)}}
$$
**Technical formula:**
```
Step 1: hp_t = ((1-α₁)/2)(src_t - src_{t-1}) + α₁ hp_{t-1}
Step 2: filt_t = c₁(hp_t + hp_{t-1})/2 + c₂ filt_{t-1} + c₃ filt_{t-2}
Step 3: r_L = (M Σxy - Σx Σy) / √[(M Σx² - (Σx)²)(M Σy² - (Σy)²)]
Step 4: P_p = (Σ_{n=2}^{N} r_n cos(2πn/p))² + (Σ_{n=2}^{N} r_n sin(2πn/p))²
Step 5: D = Σ_{p∈Ω} p · ĤP_p / Σ_{p∈Ω} ĤP_p with warmup compensation
```
where $x_i = F_{t-i}$ and $y_i = F_{t-\ell-i}$ for $i \in [0, \text{window})$.
> 🔍 **Technical Note:** Warmup uses $c = 1 / (1 - (1 - \alpha)^{k})$ to scale early-cycle estimates, preventing low values during initial bars.
### 4. Discrete Fourier Transform
## Interpretation Details
Convert autocorrelation to power spectrum via DFT:
* **Primary Dominant Cycle:**
* High $D$ (e.g., > 30) implies slow regime; adaptive MAs should lengthen.
* Low $D$ (e.g., < 15) signals rapid oscillations; shorten lookback windows.
$$
\text{cosAcc}_p = \sum_{n=2}^{\text{maxPeriod}} r_n \cos\left(\frac{2\pi n}{p}\right)
$$
* **Normalized Power:**
* Values > 0.8 indicate strong cycle confidence; consider cyclical strategies.
* Values < 0.3 warn of flat spectra; favor trend or volatility approaches.
$$
\text{sinAcc}_p = \sum_{n=2}^{\text{maxPeriod}} r_n \sin\left(\frac{2\pi n}{p}\right)
$$
* **Regime Shifts:**
* Rapid drop in $D$ alongside rising power often precedes volatility expansion.
* Divergence between $D$ and price swings may highlight upcoming breakouts.
$$
\text{Power}_p = \text{cosAcc}_p^2 + \text{sinAcc}_p^2
$$
## Limitations and Considerations
### 5. Smoothed Power Spectrum
* **Spectral Leakage:** Limited lag range can smear peaks during abrupt volatility shifts.
* **O(n²) Segment:** Although constrained (≤ 60 loops), wide period spans increase computation.
* **Stationarity Assumption:** Autocorrelation presumes quasi-stationary cycles; regime changes reduce accuracy.
* **Latency in Noise:** Even with roofing, extremely noisy assets may require higher `avgLength`.
* **Downtrend Bias:** Negative trends may clip high-pass output; ensure preprocessing retains signal.
Apply EMA-style smoothing to the power spectrum:
$$
S_p = 0.2 \cdot \text{Power}_p^2 + 0.8 \cdot S_{p,\text{prev}}
$$
### 6. Adaptive Maximum Power Tracking
Track the maximum power with decay to normalize the spectrum:
$$
\text{MaxPwr}_t = \begin{cases}
\text{localMax} & \text{if localMax} > \text{MaxPwr}_{t-1} \\
K \cdot \text{MaxPwr}_{t-1} & \text{otherwise}
\end{cases}
$$
where $K = 10^{-0.15 / (\text{maxPeriod} - \text{minPeriod})}$
### 7. Dominant Cycle Extraction
Normalize power and optionally apply cubic enhancement:
$$
\text{pwr}_p = \frac{S_p}{\text{MaxPwr}_t}
$$
$$
\text{pwr}_p = \text{pwr}_p^3 \quad \text{(if enhance = true)}
$$
Compute weighted average of periods with sufficient power:
$$
\text{Dom}_t = \frac{\sum_{p:\text{pwr}_p \geq 0.5} p \cdot \text{pwr}_p}{\sum_{p:\text{pwr}_p \geq 0.5} \text{pwr}_p}
$$
Apply smoothing:
$$
\text{Dom}_t = 0.2 \cdot (\text{baseDom} - \text{Dom}_{t-1}) + \text{Dom}_{t-1}
$$
## Mathematical Foundation
### Wiener-Khinchin Theorem
The theorem establishes that for a wide-sense stationary process:
$$
S(\omega) = \mathcal{F}\{R(\tau)\}
$$
where $S(\omega)$ is the power spectral density and $R(\tau)$ is the autocorrelation function. This means peaks in the autocorrelation at lag $\tau$ correspond to peaks in the power spectrum at frequency $\omega = 2\pi/\tau$.
### Filter Design Rationale
The high-pass filter cutoff at maxPeriod ensures cycles longer than the detection range are attenuated. The super-smoother cutoff at minPeriod removes noise at frequencies higher than the detection range. This creates a bandpass effect that isolates cycles within [minPeriod, maxPeriod].
### Cubic Enhancement
The cubic function $f(x) = x^3$ sharpens peaks because:
- Values near 1 remain close to 1: $0.9^3 = 0.729$
- Values near 0 become much smaller: $0.5^3 = 0.125$
This creates better separation between dominant and spurious cycles.
## Performance Profile
### Operation Count (Streaming Mode, per Bar)
### Operation Count (Streaming Mode, Scalar)
| Operation | Count | Cost (cycles) | Subtotal |
| :--- | :---: | :---: | :---: |
| ADD/SUB | ~N² | 1 | ~N² |
| MUL | ~N² | 3 | ~3N² |
| DIV | ~N | 15 | ~15N |
| SQRT | ~N | 15 | ~15N |
| COS | N² | 40 | 40N² |
| SIN | N² | 40 | 40N² |
| **Total** | **~4N²** | — | **~84N² cycles** |
| HP filter (MUL/ADD) | 8 | 3 | 24 |
| SS filter (MUL/ADD) | 6 | 3 | 18 |
| Autocorrelation loop | O(maxPeriod × avgLength) | 5 | ~1200 |
| DFT loop | O(maxPeriod²) | 10 | ~23000 |
| Power normalization | O(maxPeriod) | 3 | ~150 |
| Weighted average | O(maxPeriod) | 5 | ~250 |
| **Total** | | — | **~25000 cycles** |
*Where N = maxPeriod - minPeriod (default 40)*
The DFT loop dominates at O(maxPeriod²). For maxPeriod=48, this is ~2300 iterations per bar.
**Default (N=40):** ~134,400 cycles per bar (dominated by trig functions)
### Batch Mode
**Breakdown:**
- Roofing filter (HP + SSF): ~20 cycles
- Autocorrelation (N lags): ~4N² for Pearson calculations
- Fourier projection (N² iterations): 80N² cycles (COS + SIN)
- Power + normalization: ~30N cycles
Due to the recursive nature of autocorrelation and DFT, SIMD optimization is limited to:
- Vectorized DFT inner products (modest gains)
- Parallel power normalization
### Complexity Analysis
| Mode | Complexity | Notes |
| :--- | :---: | :--- |
| Streaming | O(N²) | Nested loops over lags × periods |
| Batch | O(m×N²) | m = bars, N = period range |
**Memory**: ~3N×8 bytes (autocorrelation + power arrays)
### SIMD Analysis
| Optimization | Applicable | Notes |
| :--- | :---: | :--- |
| AVX2 vectorization | Partial | Fourier sums vectorizable across lags |
| FMA | ✅ | Accumulation: `r × cos + sum` pattern |
| Batch parallelism | Limited | Each bar depends on filtered history |
**Optimization Notes:** Trig functions dominate cost. Consider:
- Precomputed trig tables for fixed period range
- SVML vectorized sin/cos for ~4× speedup
- Reduce N by narrowing period search range
Expected speedup: ~1.3x with AVX2 for DFT vectorization.
### Quality Metrics
| Metric | Score | Notes |
| :--- | :---: | :--- |
| **Accuracy** | 9/10 | Wiener-Khinchin theorem mathematically sound |
| **Timeliness** | 6/10 | Spectral analysis inherently lagging |
| **Overshoot** | 8/10 | COG averaging smooths cycle estimates |
| **Smoothness** | 7/10 | Enhanced resolution can create jumps |
| **Accuracy** | 8/10 | Good cycle detection for clean signals |
| **Timeliness** | 6/10 | Requires warmup; smoothing adds lag |
| **Overshoot** | 7/10 | Bounded output range prevents extremes |
| **Smoothness** | 8/10 | EMA smoothing reduces jitter |
| **Noise Rejection** | 7/10 | Dual filtering provides good denoising |
## Validation
EACP is a proprietary Ehlers indicator not commonly found in standard libraries.
| Library | Status | Notes |
| :--- | :---: | :--- |
| **TA-Lib** | N/A | Not implemented |
| **Skender** | N/A | Not implemented |
| **Tulip** | N/A | Not implemented |
| **Ooples** | N/A | Not implemented |
| **PineScript** | ✅ | Reference implementation |
Validation is performed against:
- Mathematical properties (bounded output, sine wave detection)
- PineScript formula verification
- Streaming vs batch consistency
## Common Pitfalls
1. **Warmup Period**: EACP requires approximately 2×maxPeriod bars to stabilize. During warmup, the dominant cycle estimate is biased toward the midpoint of [minPeriod, maxPeriod]. Always check `IsHot` before using results.
2. **Computational Cost**: The O(maxPeriod²) DFT is expensive. For real-time applications with maxPeriod > 100, consider reducing the period range or increasing the bar interval.
3. **Parameter Sensitivity**: The minPeriod/maxPeriod range must bracket the expected cycle. If the true cycle is outside this range, detection will fail. Start with a wide range (8-48) and narrow based on market characteristics.
4. **Enhance Mode**: While cubic enhancement sharpens peaks, it can also suppress weak-but-valid cycles. Disable enhancement when analyzing low-amplitude cycles or noisy data.
5. **Memory Footprint**: The indicator maintains O(maxPeriod) buffers for correlation, power, and smoothed power. Each instance consumes ~2KB for default parameters.
6. **Non-Stationary Markets**: Markets without clear cyclical behavior will produce unstable dominant cycle estimates. Use normalized power as a confidence metric: high power indicates strong cyclical behavior.

/// EBSW: Ehlers Even Better Sinewave - A normalized oscillator that extracts the
/// dominant cycle from price data using high-pass and super-smoother filters with
/// automatic gain control (AGC).
/// </summary>
/// <remarks>
/// The Even Better Sinewave indicator, developed by John Ehlers, improves upon
/// earlier sinewave indicators by combining detrending, smoothing, and normalization
/// in a single robust algorithm.
///
/// Algorithm:
/// 1. High-pass filter (HPF) removes low-frequency trend component
/// 2. Super-smoother filter (SSF) removes high-frequency noise
/// 3. Three-bar average creates the wave component
/// 4. Automatic gain control normalizes output to [-1, +1]
///
/// Formula:
/// alpha1 = (1 - sin(2π/hpLength)) / cos(2π/hpLength)
/// hp = 0.5 * (1 + alpha1) * (src - src[1]) + alpha1 * hp[1]
///
/// alpha2 = exp(-√2 * π / ssfLength)
/// beta = 2 * alpha2 * cos(√2 * π / ssfLength)
/// c1 = 1 - beta + alpha2², c2 = beta, c3 = -alpha2²
/// filt = c1 * (hp + hp[1]) / 2 + c2 * filt[1] + c3 * filt[2]
///
/// wave = (filt + filt[1] + filt[2]) / 3
/// pwr = (filt² + filt[1]² + filt[2]²) / 3
/// sinewave = wave / sqrt(pwr) [clamped to -1..+1]
///
/// Properties:
/// - Oscillates between -1 and +1
/// - Zero crossings identify potential turning points
/// - High-pass filter removes trend bias
/// - Super-smoother reduces whipsaws
/// - AGC adapts to volatility automatically

# EBSW: Ehlers Even Better Sinewave
## Overview and Purpose
> "When you combine a high-pass filter with a super-smoother, you get cleaner cycles with automatic gain control."
The Ehlers Even Better Sinewave (EBSW) indicator, developed by John Ehlers, is an advanced cycle analysis tool. This implementation is based on a common interpretation that uses a cascade of filters: first, a High-Pass Filter (HPF) to detrend price data, followed by a Super Smoother Filter (SSF) to isolate the dominant cycle. The resulting filtered wave is then normalized using an Automatic Gain Control (AGC) mechanism, producing a bounded oscillator that fluctuates between approximately +1 and -1. It aims to provide a clear and responsive measure of market cycles.
The Even Better Sinewave (EBSW) indicator, developed by John Ehlers, is a normalized cycle oscillator that extracts the dominant cycle from price data using a cascade of high-pass and super-smoother filters with automatic gain control (AGC). The output oscillates between -1 and +1, with zero crossings indicating potential turning points.
## Core Concepts
## Historical Context
* **Detrending (High-Pass Filter):** A 1-pole High-Pass Filter removes the longer-term trend component from the price data, allowing the indicator to focus on cyclical movements.
* **Cycle Smoothing (Super Smoother Filter):** Ehlers' Super Smoother Filter is applied to the detrended data to further refine the cycle component, offering effective smoothing with relatively low lag.
* **Wave Generation:** The output of the SSF is averaged over a short period (typically 3 bars) to create the primary "wave".
* **Automatic Gain Control (AGC):** The wave's amplitude is normalized by dividing it by the square root of its recent power (average of squared values). This keeps the oscillator bounded and responsive to changes in volatility.
* **Normalized Oscillator:** The final output is a single sinewave-like oscillator.
John Ehlers introduced the Even Better Sinewave as an improvement over earlier sinewave indicators. The original sinewave indicator suffered from trend contamination and noise sensitivity. EBSW addresses these issues through a multi-stage filtering approach:
## Common Settings and Parameters
1. **High-pass filter** removes the DC (trend) component
2. **Super-smoother filter** eliminates high-frequency noise
3. **Automatic gain control** normalizes the output regardless of volatility
| Parameter | Default | Function | When to Adjust |
| --------- | ------- | -------- | -------------- |
| Source | source | Data source for calculation. | Typically `close`, but `hlc3` or `ohlc4` can be used for a more comprehensive price representation. |
| HP Length | 40 | Lookback period for the 1-pole High-Pass Filter used for detrending. | Shorter periods make the filter more responsive to shorter cycles; longer periods focus on longer-term cycles. Adjust based on observed cycle characteristics. |
| SSF Length | 10 | Lookback period for the Super Smoother Filter used for smoothing the detrended cycle component. | Shorter periods result in a more responsive (but potentially noisier) wave; longer periods provide more smoothing. |
The "Even Better" in the name reflects Ehlers' iterative refinement process—each successive sinewave indicator addressed limitations of its predecessors. EBSW represents the culmination of this evolution, providing a robust cycle indicator suitable for both trending and ranging markets.
**Pro Tip:** The `HP Length` and `SSF Length` parameters should be tuned based on the typical cycle lengths observed in the market and the desired responsiveness of the indicator.
Unlike traditional oscillators that use arbitrary overbought/oversold levels, EBSW's AGC ensures the output always spans the full [-1, +1] range, making interpretation consistent across different instruments and timeframes.
## Calculation and Mathematical Foundation
## Architecture & Physics
**Simplified explanation:**
1. Remove the trend from the price data using a 1-pole High-Pass Filter.
2. Smooth the detrended data using a Super Smoother Filter to get a clean cycle component.
3. Average the output of the Super Smoother Filter over the last 3 bars to create a "Wave".
4. Calculate the average "Power" of the Super Smoother Filter output over the last 3 bars.
5. Normalize the "Wave" by dividing it by the square root of the "Power" to get the final EBSW value.
EBSW uses a two-stage IIR filter cascade followed by wave extraction and normalization.
**Technical formula (conceptual):**
1. **High-Pass Filter (HPF - 1-pole):**
`angle_hp = 2 * PI / hpLength`
`alpha1_hp = (1 - sin(angle_hp)) / cos(angle_hp)`
`HP = (0.5 * (1 + alpha1_hp) * (src - src[1])) + alpha1_hp * HP[1]`
2. **Super Smoother Filter (SSF):**
`angle_ssf = sqrt(2) * PI / ssfLength`
`alpha2_ssf = exp(-angle_ssf)`
`beta_ssf = 2 * alpha2_ssf * cos(angle_ssf)`
`c2 = beta_ssf`
`c3 = -alpha2_ssf^2`
`c1 = 1 - c2 - c3`
`Filt = c1 * (HP + HP[1])/2 + c2*Filt[1] + c3*Filt[2]`
3. **Wave Generation:**
`WaveVal = (Filt + Filt[1] + Filt[2]) / 3`
4. **Power & Automatic Gain Control (AGC):**
`Pwr = (Filt^2 + Filt[1]^2 + Filt[2]^2) / 3`
`EBSW_SineWave = WaveVal / sqrt(Pwr)` (with check for Pwr == 0)
### Core Components
> 🔍 **Technical Note:** The combination of HPF and SSF creates a form of band-pass filter. The AGC mechanism ensures the output remains scaled, typically between -1 and +1, making it behave like a normalized oscillator.
1. **High-Pass Filter**: Single-pole IIR filter that removes trend/DC component
2. **Super-Smoother Filter**: Two-pole IIR filter (Butterworth-style) for noise reduction
3. **Wave Calculator**: Three-bar average of filtered values
4. **Power Calculator**: Three-bar RMS (root mean square) for normalization
5. **AGC Normalizer**: Divides wave by RMS, clamps to [-1, +1]
## Interpretation Details
### Filter Cascade
* **Cycle Identification:** The EBSW wave shows the current phase and strength of the dominant market cycle as filtered by the indicator. Peaks suggest cycle tops, and troughs suggest cycle bottoms.
* **Trend Reversals/Momentum Shifts:** When the EBSW wave crosses the zero line, it can indicate a potential shift in the short-term cyclical momentum.
* Crossing up through zero: Potential start of a bullish cyclical phase.
* Crossing down through zero: Potential start of a bearish cyclical phase.
* **Overbought/Oversold Levels:** While normalized, traders often establish subjective or statistically derived overbought/oversold levels (e.g., +0.85 and -0.85, or other values like +0.7, +0.9).
* Reaching above the overbought level and turning down may signal a potential cyclical peak.
* Falling below the oversold level and turning up may signal a potential cyclical trough.
```
Price → High-Pass → Super-Smoother → Wave/Power → AGC → Sinewave
(detrend) (smooth) (3-bar avg) (normalize)
```
## Limitations and Considerations
### State Management
* **Parameter Sensitivity:** The indicator's performance depends on tuning `hpLength` and `ssfLength` to prevailing market conditions.
* **Non-Stationary Markets:** In strongly trending markets with weak cyclical components, or in very choppy non-cyclical conditions, the EBSW may produce less reliable signals.
* **Lag:** All filtering introduces some lag. The Super Smoother Filter is designed to minimize this for its degree of smoothing, but lag is still present.
* **Whipsaws:** Rapid oscillations around the zero line can occur in volatile or directionless markets.
* **Requires Confirmation:** Signals from EBSW are often best confirmed with other forms of technical analysis (e.g., price action, volume, other non-correlated indicators).
The indicator maintains:
- Two source values (current and previous)
- Two high-pass values (current and previous)
- Three filter values (current, previous, two-back)
- Last valid value for NaN handling
## Mathematical Foundation
### High-Pass Filter Coefficient
The high-pass filter uses an angular frequency based on the period:
$$
\theta_{hp} = \frac{2\pi}{HP_{length}}
$$
$$
\alpha_1 = \frac{1 - \sin(\theta_{hp})}{\cos(\theta_{hp})}
$$
This coefficient determines how much of the previous high-pass output carries forward. Larger HP length → larger $\alpha_1$ → more low-frequency rejection.
### High-Pass Filter Equation
$$
HP_t = 0.5 \cdot (1 + \alpha_1) \cdot (P_t - P_{t-1}) + \alpha_1 \cdot HP_{t-1}
$$
The first term applies a differencing operation (removes DC) weighted by $(1 + \alpha_1)/2$. The second term provides recursive smoothing.
### Super-Smoother Filter Coefficients
The super-smoother uses a critically damped two-pole design:
$$
\theta_{ssf} = \frac{\sqrt{2} \cdot \pi}{SSF_{length}}
$$
$$
\alpha_2 = e^{-\theta_{ssf}}
$$
$$
\beta = 2 \cdot \alpha_2 \cdot \cos(\theta_{ssf})
$$
$$
c_2 = \beta, \quad c_3 = -\alpha_2^2, \quad c_1 = 1 - c_2 - c_3
$$
Note: The coefficients sum to 1, ensuring DC gain of 1 for non-zero-mean signals (though the high-pass removes DC anyway).
### Super-Smoother Filter Equation
$$
Filt_t = \frac{c_1}{2} \cdot (HP_t + HP_{t-1}) + c_2 \cdot Filt_{t-1} + c_3 \cdot Filt_{t-2}
$$
The input is averaged to reduce aliasing artifacts. The two feedback terms create the smooth response.
### Wave Component (3-Bar Average)
$$
Wave_t = \frac{Filt_t + Filt_{t-1} + Filt_{t-2}}{3}
$$
### Power Component (3-Bar RMS)
$$
Pwr_t = \frac{Filt_t^2 + Filt_{t-1}^2 + Filt_{t-2}^2}{3}
$$
### AGC Normalization
$$
Sinewave_t = \text{clamp}\left(\frac{Wave_t}{\sqrt{Pwr_t}}, -1, +1\right)
$$
When $Pwr_t = 0$ (constant input), the division returns 0.
### Example Calculation
For default parameters (HP length=40, SSF length=10):
$$
\theta_{hp} = \frac{2\pi}{40} \approx 0.157
$$
$$
\alpha_1 = \frac{1 - \sin(0.157)}{\cos(0.157)} \approx 0.843
$$
$$
\theta_{ssf} = \frac{\sqrt{2} \cdot \pi}{10} \approx 0.444
$$
$$
\alpha_2 = e^{-0.444} \approx 0.641
$$
$$
c_1 \approx 0.213, \quad c_2 \approx 1.198, \quad c_3 \approx -0.411
$$

EBSW is validated through mathematical properties:
- Constant price produces zero output (no cycles)
- Output always bounded between -1 and +1
- Pure sine wave input produces clean oscillation near ±1
- Zero crossings align with cycle phase changes
- AGC adapts to different volatility levels
## Common Pitfalls
1. **HP Length Selection**: The high-pass length determines the longest cycle passed through. Set to approximately the dominant cycle period. Default 40 is suitable for daily data targeting ~8-week cycles.
2. **SSF Length Selection**: The super-smoother length controls noise filtering. Too short leaves noise; too long delays response. Typical ratio: SSF length = HP length / 4.
3. **Warmup Period**: EBSW needs `max(hpLength, ssfLength) + 3` bars to stabilize due to the three-bar wave calculation. Early values may not be reliable.
4. **Zero Crossings in Trends**: During strong trends, EBSW may oscillate around a non-zero mean. Zero crossings are most meaningful in ranging markets.
5. **AGC Saturation**: When EBSW reaches ±1, the cycle may be extended (not peaked). Look for the turn from ±1 rather than just the extreme values.
6. **Chained Indicators**: EBSW output is already normalized. Applying additional smoothing may distort the [-1, +1] property.
## Usage
```csharp
using QuanTAlib;
// Create an EBSW indicator with default parameters
var ebsw = new Ebsw(hpLength: 40, ssfLength: 10);
// Update with new values
var result = ebsw.Update(new TValue(DateTime.UtcNow, 100.0));
// Access the last calculated value
Console.WriteLine($"EBSW: {ebsw.Last.Value}"); // Always in [-1, +1]
// Chained usage
var source = new TSeries();
var ebswChained = new Ebsw(source, hpLength: 40, ssfLength: 10);
// Static batch calculation
var output = Ebsw.Calculate(source, hpLength: 40, ssfLength: 10);
// Span-based calculation
Span<double> outputSpan = stackalloc double[source.Count];
Ebsw.Batch(source.Values, outputSpan, hpLength: 40, ssfLength: 10);
```
## Applications
### Cycle Turning Points
EBSW zero crossings identify cycle inflection points:
- EBSW crosses above zero: cycle trough (potential buy signal)
- EBSW crosses below zero: cycle peak (potential sell signal)
### Entry/Exit Timing
Use EBSW extremes for timing:
- EBSW near -1 and turning up: entering bullish phase
- EBSW near +1 and turning down: entering bearish phase
### Trend Filtering
Combine with trend indicators:
- In uptrend: Enter long when EBSW crosses above zero
- In downtrend: Enter short when EBSW crosses below zero
### Divergence Detection
EBSW divergences signal potential reversals:
- Price higher high, EBSW lower high: bearish divergence
- Price lower low, EBSW higher low: bullish divergence
### Multi-Timeframe Analysis
EBSW on multiple timeframes provides confluence:
- Higher timeframe: Direction bias
- Lower timeframe: Entry timing

```csharp
var ebsw = new Ebsw(hpLength: 40, ssfLength: 10);
```
### For Longer-Term Cycles (Weekly)
```csharp
var ebsw = new Ebsw(hpLength: 80, ssfLength: 20);
```
### Adaptive Approach
Use cycle measurement (e.g., autocorrelation, Homodyne Discriminator) to dynamically adjust HP length to match the detected dominant cycle.

# HOMOD: Homodyne Discriminator Dominant Cycle
# HOMOD: Homodyne Discriminator
## Overview and Purpose
> "The homodyne discriminator reveals instantaneous frequency by multiplying a signal with its delayed self — the phase rotation between samples directly encodes the cycle period."
The Homodyne Discriminator (HOMOD) is a cycle measurement technique introduced by John F. Ehlers in *Rocket Science for Traders* (2001) and expanded in the November 2000 *Traders Tips* column. It applies a Hilbert Transform framework to detect the instantaneous dominant cycle present in price data while minimizing lag.
The Homodyne Discriminator, developed by John Ehlers, estimates the dominant cycle period in market data using homodyne multiplication and phase angle measurement. Unlike spectral methods that analyze frequency bins, homodyne detection measures the instantaneous phase change between consecutive samples, providing responsive and noise-resistant cycle detection.
Unlike fixed-length filters, HOMOD continuously adapts to current market rhythm by converting the in-phase and quadrature components into a complex phasor pair, multiplying them homodynally, and extracting period information from the resulting phase angle. This makes it ideal for adaptive indicators and systems requiring dynamic lookback lengths.
## Historical Context
## Core Concepts
John Ehlers introduced the Homodyne Discriminator as part of his work on applying communications signal processing to financial markets. The term "homodyne" comes from radio engineering, where it describes a detection method that multiplies a signal with a locally generated reference at the same frequency.
* **Homodyne Multiplication:** Complex multiply of current and prior phasors to isolate instantaneous frequency
* **Hilbert FIR Kernel:** Ehlers 0.0962/0.5769 coefficients producing 90° phase shift with minimal distortion
* **Quadrature Rotation:** Phase-advanced components (jI, jQ) enabling orthogonal phasor construction
* **Cycle Clamping:** Limiting detected periods to realistic bounds (default 650 bars)
* **Warmup Compensation:** Exponential correction ensuring stable output from bar one
In Ehlers' adaptation, the indicator generates its own reference signals (I and Q components) using Hilbert Transform approximations, then multiplies the analytic signal with its delayed version. The resulting real and imaginary components encode the instantaneous phase difference, from which the cycle period is extracted.
## Common Settings and Parameters
The key innovation is that homodyne detection measures phase rate of change directly, rather than inferring it from spectral peaks. This makes the algorithm more responsive to cycle changes while maintaining noise immunity through multiple smoothing stages.
| Parameter | Default | Function | When to Adjust |
| ------ | ------ | ------ | ------ |
| Source | source | Data source for cycle period analysis | Switch to close for end-of-day signals or to custom synthetic blends |
| Min Period | 6 | Lower bound for detected cycle length | Increase to ignore ultrashort noise-dominated cycles |
| Max Period | 50 | Upper bound for detected cycle length | Raise for weekly/monthly studies; lower for intraday scalping |
This implementation follows Ehlers' PineScript formulation, which includes:
**Pro Tip:** Align downstream indicators (e.g., RSI, moving averages) to the live HOMOD period by rounding to the nearest integer—this maintains resonance with the markets dominant rhythm.
- 4-bar weighted moving average for input smoothing
- Hilbert Transform via FIR coefficients [0.0962, 0, 0.5769, 0, -0.5769, 0, -0.0962]
- Bandwidth adaptation based on estimated period
- Homodyne mixing with 1-bar delay
- Multiple EMA smoothing stages (α = 0.2 and α = 0.33)
- Exponential warmup compensation
## Calculation and Mathematical Foundation
## Architecture & Physics
**Explanation:**
HOMOD smooths price, applies a Hilbert Transform to obtain in-phase (I) and quadrature (Q) components, rotates them by 90°, forms phasors, multiplies each phasor by its predecessor, and derives period length from the resulting phase angle. Subsequent smoothing and clamping stabilize measurements.
### 1. Input Smoothing (4-bar WMA)
**Technical formula:**
The first stage smooths the input price using a weighted moving average:
1. **Weighted smoothing and detrending**
$$
SmoothPrice_t = \frac{4P_t + 3P_{t-1} + 2P_{t-2} + P_{t-3}}{10}
$$
$$
Detrender_t = \left(0.0962\,SP_t + 0.5769\,SP_{t-2} - 0.5769\,SP_{t-4} - 0.0962\,SP_{t-6}\right)\cdot B_t
$$
where $B_t = 0.075\cdot Period_{t-1} + 0.54$.
$$
\text{Smooth}_t = \frac{4P_t + 3P_{t-1} + 2P_{t-2} + P_{t-3}}{10}
$$
2. **Quadrature pair and phase advance**
$$
Q1_t = (0.0962\,Det_t + 0.5769\,Det_{t-2} - 0.5769\,Det_{t-4} - 0.0962\,Det_{t-6})\cdot B_t
$$
$$
I1_t = Det_{t-3}
$$
$$
jI_t = (0.0962\,I1_t + 0.5769\,I1_{t-2} - 0.5769\,I1_{t-4} - 0.0962\,I1_{t-6})\cdot B_t
$$
$$
jQ_t = (0.0962\,Q1_t + 0.5769\,Q1_{t-2} - 0.5769\,Q1_{t-4} - 0.0962\,Q1_{t-6})\cdot B_t
$$
This removes high-frequency noise while introducing minimal phase shift in the cycle detection range.
3. **Phasor construction**
$$
I2_t = 0.2\,(I1_t - jQ_t) + 0.8\,I2_{t-1},\quad Q2_t = 0.2\,(Q1_t + jI_t) + 0.8\,Q2_{t-1}
$$
### 2. Bandwidth Calculation
4. **Homodyne product and smoothing**
$$
Re_t = 0.2\,(I2_t I2_{t-1} + Q2_t Q2_{t-1}) + 0.8\,Re_{t-1}
$$
$$
Im_t = 0.2\,(I2_t Q2_{t-1} - Q2_t I2_{t-1}) + 0.8\,Im_{t-1}
$$
The Hilbert Transform coefficients are scaled by a bandwidth factor that adapts to the estimated period:
5. **Period extraction, clamp, warmup**
$$
\theta_t = \operatorname{atan2}(Im_t, Re_t)
$$
$$
Period^\*_{t} = \frac{2\pi}{\theta_t}
$$
$$
Period_t = \operatorname{clip}(|Period^\*_t|,\ Min,\ Max)
$$
$$
SmoothPeriod_t = SmoothPeriod_{t-1} + 0.33\,(Period_t - SmoothPeriod_{t-1})
$$
$$
\text{BW}_t = 0.075 \cdot \text{SmoothPeriod}_{t-1} + 0.54
$$
## Interpretation Details
This creates a feedback loop where the bandwidth narrows as shorter cycles are detected and widens for longer cycles, improving detection accuracy.
* **Cycle Tracking**
* 612 bars: fast oscillatory regimes suited to scalping and short-term countertrend trades
* 1230 bars: medium cycles aligning with swing-trading horizons
* 3060 bars: slow cycles highlighting macro rhythm or trend exhaustion zones
### 3. Hilbert Transform (Detrender)
* **Adaptive Parameterization**
* Use rounded SmoothPeriod as the lookback for RSI, stochastic, ATR channels, etc.
* Match moving-average lengths to maintain coherence between filters and underlying price rhythm.
The detrender applies the Hilbert Transform coefficients to the smoothed price:
* **Regime Analysis**
* Stable plateau in period → consistent cycle regime
* Rising period → trend elongation or consolidation broadening
* Falling period → volatility expansion, choppy markets, or nascent rotational phases
$$
\text{Det}_t = (0.0962 \cdot S_t + 0.5769 \cdot S_{t-2} - 0.5769 \cdot S_{t-4} - 0.0962 \cdot S_{t-6}) \cdot \text{BW}
$$
## Limitations and Considerations
where $S_t$ is the smoothed price. This produces the in-phase (I) component with approximately 90° phase shift.
* **Warmup Demand:** Requires ~60 bars for fully stable phasor history; early readings should be treated cautiously
* **Trend Dominance:** Persistent directional moves degrade cycle definition, causing erratic period swings
* **Noise Sensitivity:** Despite smoothing, extremely noisy instruments may oscillate near Min Period consistently
* **Clamp Bias:** Hard limits prevent detection of cycles outside bounds; adjust for instruments with known longer rhythms
* **Computational Intensity:** Multiple FIR taps and state variables raise per-bar workload versus simpler averages
### 4. Quadrature Component (Q1)
The quadrature component applies the same Hilbert Transform to the detrender:
$$
Q1_t = (0.0962 \cdot D_t + 0.5769 \cdot D_{t-2} - 0.5769 \cdot D_{t-4} - 0.0962 \cdot D_{t-6}) \cdot \text{BW}
$$
The in-phase component is simply the detrender delayed by 3 bars:
$$
I1_t = D_{t-3}
$$
### 5. Phase Rotation (JI and JQ)
Additional Hilbert Transforms compute the phase-rotated versions:
$$
JI_t = (0.0962 \cdot I1_t + 0.5769 \cdot I1_{t-2} - 0.5769 \cdot I1_{t-4} - 0.0962 \cdot I1_{t-6}) \cdot \text{BW}
$$
$$
JQ_t = (0.0962 \cdot Q1_t + 0.5769 \cdot Q1_{t-2} - 0.5769 \cdot Q1_{t-4} - 0.0962 \cdot Q1_{t-6}) \cdot \text{BW}
$$
### 6. Analytic Signal (I2 and Q2)
The final I and Q components combine the original and rotated signals:
$$
I2_{\text{raw}} = I1 - JQ
$$
$$
Q2_{\text{raw}} = Q1 + JI
$$
These are smoothed with an EMA (α = 0.2):
$$
I2_t = 0.2 \cdot I2_{\text{raw}} + 0.8 \cdot I2_{t-1}
$$
$$
Q2_t = 0.2 \cdot Q2_{\text{raw}} + 0.8 \cdot Q2_{t-1}
$$
### 7. Homodyne Multiplication
The homodyne discriminator multiplies the current analytic signal with its previous value:
$$
\text{Re}_{\text{raw}} = I2_t \cdot I2_{t-1} + Q2_t \cdot Q2_{t-1}
$$
$$
\text{Im}_{\text{raw}} = I2_t \cdot Q2_{t-1} - Q2_t \cdot I2_{t-1}
$$
Smoothed with EMA (α = 0.2):
$$
\text{Re}_t = 0.2 \cdot \text{Re}_{\text{raw}} + 0.8 \cdot \text{Re}_{t-1}
$$
$$
\text{Im}_t = 0.2 \cdot \text{Im}_{\text{raw}} + 0.8 \cdot \text{Im}_{t-1}
$$
### 8. Period Extraction
The instantaneous angular frequency is extracted from the phase angle:
$$
\theta = \text{atan2}(\text{Im}, \text{Re})
$$
$$
\text{Period}_{\text{candidate}} = \frac{2\pi}{\theta}
$$
The period is clamped and smoothed:
$$
\text{Period}_t = 0.2 \cdot \text{clamp}(|\text{candidate}|, \text{minPeriod}, \text{maxPeriod}) + 0.8 \cdot \text{Period}_{t-1}
$$
### 9. Final Smoothing
An additional EMA with α = 0.33 provides the final output:
$$
\text{SmoothPeriod}_t = \text{SmoothPeriod}_{t-1} + 0.33 \cdot (\text{Period}_t - \text{SmoothPeriod}_{t-1})
$$
### 10. Warmup Compensation
During warmup, exponential compensation accelerates convergence:
$$
\text{decay}_t = \text{decay}_{t-1} \cdot (1 - \alpha)
$$
$$
\text{Result}_t = \frac{\text{SmoothPeriod}_t}{1 - \text{decay}_t}
$$
## Mathematical Foundation
### Homodyne Detection Principle
In communications, homodyne detection multiplies a received signal $s(t)$ with a local oscillator at the same frequency $\omega_0$:
$$
s(t) \cdot \cos(\omega_0 t) = A(t) \cos(\omega_0 t + \phi(t)) \cdot \cos(\omega_0 t)
$$
Using the product-to-sum identity:
$$
= \frac{A(t)}{2}[\cos(\phi(t)) + \cos(2\omega_0 t + \phi(t))]
$$
Low-pass filtering removes the double-frequency term, leaving the phase information.
### Analytic Signal Representation
The analytic signal $z(t)$ is the original signal plus $j$ times its Hilbert transform:
$$
z(t) = x(t) + jH\{x(t)\} = A(t)e^{j\phi(t)}
$$
Multiplying consecutive samples:
$$
z(t) \cdot z^*(t-\Delta t) = A(t)A(t-\Delta t)e^{j[\phi(t) - \phi(t-\Delta t)]}
$$
The phase difference $\Delta\phi = \phi(t) - \phi(t-\Delta t)$ directly encodes the instantaneous frequency:
$$
\omega = \frac{\Delta\phi}{\Delta t}
$$
### Hilbert Transform Approximation
The FIR coefficients [0.0962, 0, 0.5769, 0, -0.5769, 0, -0.0962] approximate the ideal Hilbert transform:
$$
H(\omega) = \begin{cases}
-j & \omega > 0 \\
+j & \omega < 0
\end{cases}
$$
The zeros at odd indices ensure only 90° phase shift without amplitude distortion at the center frequency.

- Mode parity (TSeries, Span, events)
## Common Pitfalls
1. **Warmup Period**: HOMOD requires approximately 2×maxPeriod bars to stabilize. The exponential warmup compensation helps but does not eliminate bias. Always check `IsHot` before using results for trading decisions.
2. **Constant Input Handling**: With constant price input, the Hilbert Transform outputs approach zero, making the atan2 calculation undefined. The implementation guards against this with magnitude checks (> 1e-10).
3. **Parameter Range**: The minPeriod/maxPeriod range must bracket the expected cycle. Unlike spectral methods, homodyne detection has no frequency bins — it produces a single period estimate. If the true cycle is far outside the range, the clamping will bias results toward the boundary.
4. **Trending Markets**: Strong trends produce low-frequency bias in the analytic signal. The period estimate will tend toward maxPeriod during sustained moves. Use additional trend filters if cycle detection during trends is required.
5. **Memory Footprint**: Each instance maintains ~40 state variables for the cascaded filters and history buffers. Per-instance memory is approximately 320 bytes.
6. **Atan2 Implementation**: The custom atan2 function matches PineScript behavior for consistency. Standard library atan2 may differ at edge cases (both arguments zero). This implementation returns 0 for robustness.

# HT_DCPERIOD: Hilbert Transform Dominant Cycle Period
[Pine Script Implementation of HT_DCPERIOD](https://github.com/mihakralj/pinescript/blob/main/indicators/cycles/ht_dcperiod.pine)
## Overview and Purpose
The Hilbert Transform Dominant Cycle Period (HT_DCPERIOD) is an advanced signal processing indicator developed by John Ehlers that identifies the dominant cycle length in price data. Published in his book "Cycle Analytics for Traders" (2013), this indicator uses the Hilbert Transform mathematical technique to detect the current market cycle period in real-time, typically ranging from 6 to 50 bars.
Unlike traditional cycle detection methods that rely on fixed periods, HT_DCPERIOD adapts to changing market conditions by continuously measuring the actual cycle length present in the price data. This adaptive capability makes it invaluable for optimizing other technical indicators and determining appropriate lookback periods for trading systems.
## Core Concepts
* **Hilbert Transform**: A mathematical operation that shifts the phase of a signal by 90 degrees, enabling the separation of trending and cycling components in price data
* **InPhase and Quadrature Components**: Two phase-shifted versions of the price signal that, when combined, reveal the cycle period through their phase relationship
* **Detrending**: Removal of the trending component from price data to isolate the cyclical component for accurate period measurement
* **Adaptive Smoothing**: Dynamic adjustment of smoothing factors based on the detected cycle period to reduce noise while maintaining responsiveness
* **Median Filtering**: Use of a 5-bar moving median to smooth the period output and eliminate outliers caused by market noise
## Common Settings and Parameters
| Parameter | Default | Function | When to Adjust |
| ------ | ------ | ------ | ------ |
| Source | source | Data source for analysis | Use close for end-of-bar signals, hlc3 for intrabar smoothing |
**Pro Tip:** The indicator automatically adapts to any timeframe. On daily charts, a period of 20 indicates a 20-day cycle (about one month). On hourly charts, 20 indicates a 20-hour cycle. Consider the timeframe when interpreting the cycle length - what matters is the number of bars, not calendar time.
## Calculation and Mathematical Foundation
**Simplified explanation:**
HT_DCPERIOD uses digital signal processing to transform price data into two phase-shifted components (InPhase and Quadrature), then calculates the cycle period from the phase angle between them.
**Technical formula:**
1. **Smooth the price** to reduce high-frequency noise:
```
SmoothPrice = (4×Price + 3×Price[1] + 2×Price[2] + Price[3]) / 10
```
2. **Detrend the smoothed price** using a Hilbert Transform finite impulse response filter:
```
Detrender = (0.0962×SP + 0.5769×SP[2] - 0.5769×SP[4] - 0.0962×SP[6]) × (0.075×Period[1] + 0.54)
```
3. **Compute InPhase (I1) and Quadrature (Q1) components**:
```
Q1 = (0.0962×DT + 0.5769×DT[2] - 0.5769×DT[4] - 0.0962×DT[6]) × (0.075×Period[1] + 0.54)
I1 = Detrender[3]
```
4. **Advance the phase** of I1 and Q1 by 90 degrees (jI and jQ):
```
jI = (0.0962×I1 + 0.5769×I1[2] - 0.5769×I1[4] - 0.0962×I1[6]) × (0.075×Period[1] + 0.54)
jQ = (0.0962×Q1 + 0.5769×Q1[2] - 0.5769×Q1[4] - 0.0962×Q1[6]) × (0.075×Period[1] + 0.54)
```
5. **Create phasor components I2 and Q2**:
```
I2 = I1 - jQ
Q2 = Q1 + jI
Smooth I2 and Q2 with: Value = 0.2×Value + 0.8×Value[1]
```
6. **Calculate Real and Imaginary components**:
```
Re = I2×I2[1] + Q2×Q2[1]
Im = I2×Q2[1] - Q2×I2[1]
Smooth Re and Im with: Value = 0.2×Value + 0.8×Value[1]
```
7. **Compute cycle period from phase angle**:
```
Period = 2π / arctan(Im / Re)
Clamp: Period = max(6, min(50, Period))
Smooth: Period = 0.2×Period + 0.8×Period[1]
```
8. **Apply exponential smoothing** to final period output:
```
SmoothPeriod = 0.2×Period + 0.8×SmoothPeriod[1]
```
> 🔍 **Technical Note:** The adaptive smoothing factor (0.075×Period[1] + 0.54) in the Hilbert Transform filters adjusts the bandwidth based on the current cycle period, ensuring optimal frequency response across different market cycles. The exponential smoothing (alpha=0.2) balances responsiveness with stability while maintaining Ehlers' original algorithm design.
## Interpretation Details
HT_DCPERIOD provides real-time cycle analysis with multiple applications:
* **Cycle Length Identification:**
* Values 6-15 bars: Short-term cycles, fast market movements
* Values 15-30 bars: Medium-term cycles, typical trading ranges
* Values 30-50 bars: Long-term cycles, slower trending movements
* Stable values indicate consistent cycling behavior
* Rapidly changing values suggest transitional or chaotic market conditions
* **Indicator Optimization:**
* Use detected period as lookback length for other indicators
* Example: If HT_DCPERIOD = 20, use 20-period RSI, 20-period moving averages
* Automatically adapts indicators to current market rhythm
* Improves timing and reduces false signals
* **Market State Assessment:**
* Stable, consistent period readings: Market in well-defined cycle
* Increasing period length: Market entering longer-term trend or consolidation
* Decreasing period length: Market becoming more volatile or choppy
* Erratic period changes: Transitional phase, trend/cycle mode shift
* **Trading System Adaptation:**
* Short cycles (6-15): Use faster indicators, shorter stops, quicker exits
* Medium cycles (15-30): Standard trading approaches work well
* Long cycles (30-50): Use wider stops, longer holding periods, trend-following strategies
## Limitations and Considerations
* **Initialization Period**: Requires approximately 50-60 bars of data before producing stable readings due to the multiple stages of filtering and smoothing
* **Lag Component**: The extensive smoothing needed for stability introduces some lag, meaning detected periods reflect recent rather than current cycle length
* **Range Limitations**: Clamped to 6-50 bars, so cannot detect very short (< 6) or very long (> 50) cycles, which may be present in some markets
* **Trending Markets**: During strong trends with minimal cyclical component, the indicator may produce unstable or meaningless readings as it attempts to find cycles where none exist
* **Complementary Use**: Best used in conjunction with trend-following indicators (like HT_TRENDMODE) to determine when cycle analysis is appropriate vs when trend analysis is more suitable
* **Parameter Sensitivity**: The Ehlers algorithm uses specific mathematical constants that work well for most markets but may not be optimal for all instruments or timeframes

# HT_DCPHASE: Hilbert Transform - Dominant Cycle Phase
[Pine Script Implementation of HT_DCPHASE](https://github.com/mihakralj/pinescript/blob/main/indicators/cycles/ht_dcphase.pine)
## Overview and Purpose
The Hilbert Transform Dominant Cycle Phase (HT_DCPHASE) is an advanced cycle analysis indicator developed by John Ehlers that identifies the current phase position within the dominant market cycle. By applying Hilbert Transform mathematics to price data, this indicator extracts the phase angle of the dominant cycle, revealing where the market currently sits within its cyclical pattern. This information is invaluable for timing entries and exits, as it shows whether the cycle is in accumulation, markup, distribution, or markdown phases.
HT_DCPHASE works by computing the In-phase (I) and Quadrature (Q) components through Hilbert Transform analysis, then calculating the phase angle as the arctangent of Q/I. The result is a continuous phase measurement in radians ranging from -π to π, providing a precise indication of cycle position. This makes it particularly useful for identifying cycle turning points and anticipating trend changes before they become apparent in price action.
## Core Concepts
* **Phase Angle**: Measures position within cycle using arctangent of Q/I components; ranges from -π to π radians
* **Hilbert Transform**: Mathematical technique that creates 90-degree phase-shifted version of price for quadrature analysis
* **I and Q Components**: In-phase and Quadrature components represent cycle's position in two-dimensional phase space
* **Cycle Position**: Phase angle indicates whether market is in trough (-π), peak (0), or transition phases (±π/2)
* **Adaptive Bandwidth**: Uses dominant cycle period to adjust filter bandwidth for optimal detrending
## Common Settings and Parameters
| Parameter | Default | Function | When to Adjust |
| ------ | ------ | ------ | ------ |
| Source | source | Data source for analysis | Use close for simpler signals; hlc3 for smoother, more comprehensive cycle detection |
**Pro Tip:** HT_DCPHASE is most effective when used in conjunction with HT_DCPERIOD to understand both the cycle length and current position. Phase crossings through zero often correspond to significant trend changes. The indicator works best on instruments with clear cyclical behavior - sideways or ranging markets provide cleaner signals than strongly trending markets.
## Calculation and Mathematical Foundation
**Simplified explanation:**
HT_DCPHASE applies Hilbert Transform mathematics to extract the phase angle of the dominant market cycle, indicating the current position within the cycle.
**Technical formula:**
1. Smooth the price data:
```
SmoothPrice = (4×Price + 3×Price[1] + 2×Price[2] + Price[3]) / 10
```
2. Detrend with adaptive bandwidth:
```
Bandwidth = 0.075 × Period[1] + 0.54
Detrender = Hilbert_FIR(SmoothPrice) × Bandwidth
```
3. Calculate Quadrature component (90° phase shift):
```
Q1 = Hilbert_FIR(Detrender) × Bandwidth
```
4. Calculate In-phase component (delayed detrend):
```
I1 = Detrender[3]
```
5. Apply Hilbert Transform to get jI and jQ:
```
jI = Hilbert_FIR(I1) × Bandwidth
jQ = Hilbert_FIR(Q1) × Bandwidth
```
6. Compute smoothed I2 and Q2:
```
I2 = I1 - jQ
Q2 = Q1 + jI
I2 = 0.2×I2 + 0.8×I2[1] (smooth)
Q2 = 0.2×Q2 + 0.8×Q2[1] (smooth)
```
7. Calculate phase angle:
```
Phase = atan(Q2 / I2)
```
Where `Hilbert_FIR` is a finite impulse response filter with coefficients [0.0962, 0.5769, 0, -0.5769, -0.0962].
> 🔍 **Technical Note:** The phase calculation uses arctangent to convert the I and Q components from Cartesian to polar coordinates. The dominant cycle period (calculated from Re and Im) is used to adapt the filter bandwidth, ensuring the phase measurement tracks the actual market cycle rather than noise or shorter-term fluctuations.
## Interpretation Details
HT_DCPHASE provides cycle phase analysis through several interpretive lenses:
* **Phase Position:**
* Phase ≈ -π: Cycle trough (potential buy zone)
* Phase ≈ -π/2: Rising from trough (early uptrend)
* Phase ≈ 0: Cycle peak (potential sell zone)
* Phase ≈ π/2: Declining from peak (early downtrend)
* **Phase Levels:**
* Phase = 0: Cycle peak reached (distribution zone)
* Phase = ±π: Cycle trough reached (accumulation zone)
* Phase transitions through these levels indicate cycle progression
* Watch for price behavior at these phase extremes
* **Phase Velocity:**
* Rapid phase changes indicate strong momentum
* Slow phase progression suggests consolidation
* Stalled phase can indicate cycle transition or mode change
* **Cycle Synchronization:**
* Use with HT_DCPERIOD to confirm cycle consistency
* Phase leads price by design, providing early signals
* Most reliable in ranging or cyclical market conditions
* **Quadrant Analysis:**
* Quadrant I (0 to π/2): Early decline phase
* Quadrant II (π/2 to π): Late decline phase
* Quadrant III (-π to -π/2): Late rise phase
* Quadrant IV (-π/2 to 0): Early rise phase
## Limitations and Considerations
* **Trend Dependence:** Less reliable in strong trending markets; works best in cyclical or ranging conditions
* **Phase Wrapping:** Discontinuities at ±π boundaries require careful interpretation of phase transitions
* **Lag Component:** Smoothing introduces slight lag; phase leads price but not instantaneously
* **Noise Sensitivity:** Can produce erratic signals in highly volatile or choppy markets without clear cycles
* **Cycle Assumption:** Assumes presence of dominant cycle; may give spurious signals in random walk conditions
* **Parameter Adaptation:** Uses previous period for bandwidth calculation; may lag during rapid cycle changes

# HT_PHASOR: Hilbert Transform - Phasor Components
[Pine Script Implementation of HT_PHASOR](https://github.com/mihakralj/pinescript/blob/main/indicators/cycles/ht_phasor.pine)
## Overview and Purpose
The Hilbert Transform Phasor Components (HT_PHASOR) is an advanced cycle analysis indicator developed by John Ehlers that provides direct access to the In-phase (I) and Quadrature (Q) components of the dominant market cycle. Unlike HT_DCPHASE which derives the phase angle from these components, HT_PHASOR exposes the raw I and Q values themselves, allowing traders and analysts to construct custom cycle indicators or perform advanced signal processing techniques.
The phasor components represent the cycle in two-dimensional phase space, where the I component is the detrended price delayed by a quarter cycle, and the Q component is a 90-degree phase-shifted version of the detrended price. Together, these components form a complex phasor that rotates through phase space as the market cycles, with the magnitude representing cycle amplitude and the angle representing phase position. This dual representation is invaluable for understanding both the strength and position of market cycles.
## Core Concepts
* **In-Phase Component (I)**: The detrended price delayed by quarter cycle; represents the "real" part of the cycle phasor
* **Quadrature Component (Q)**: 90-degree phase-shifted detrended price; represents the "imaginary" part of the cycle phasor
* **Phasor Representation**: I and Q together form a rotating vector in 2D phase space tracking cycle evolution
* **Complex Analysis**: Enables computation of amplitude (√(I²+Q²)), phase (atan2(Q,I)), and frequency
* **Adaptive Processing**: Uses dominant cycle period to adjust bandwidth for optimal component extraction
## Common Settings and Parameters
| Parameter | Default | Function | When to Adjust |
| ------ | ------ | ------ | ------ |
| Source | source | Data source for analysis | Use close for simpler signals; hlc3 for smoother, more comprehensive cycle detection |
**Pro Tip:** HT_PHASOR is primarily useful for custom indicator development and advanced cycle analysis. The I and Q components can be used to calculate amplitude (cycle strength), phase (cycle position), and instantaneous frequency. When I and Q oscillate with constant magnitude, the market is in a strong cyclical mode. When their magnitudes vary significantly, the market may be transitioning between cycle and trend modes.
## Calculation and Mathematical Foundation
**Simplified explanation:**
HT_PHASOR applies Hilbert Transform mathematics to extract the In-phase and Quadrature components, which represent the dominant cycle as a rotating vector in 2D phase space.
**Technical formula:**
1. Smooth the price data:
```
SmoothPrice = (4×Price + 3×Price[1] + 2×Price[2] + Price[3]) / 10
```
2. Detrend with adaptive bandwidth:
```
Bandwidth = 0.075 × Period[1] + 0.54
Detrender = Hilbert_FIR(SmoothPrice) × Bandwidth
```
3. Calculate Quadrature component (90° phase shift):
```
Q1 = Hilbert_FIR(Detrender) × Bandwidth
```
4. Calculate In-phase component (delayed detrend):
```
I1 = Detrender[3]
```
5. Apply Hilbert Transform to get jI and jQ:
```
jI = Hilbert_FIR(I1) × Bandwidth
jQ = Hilbert_FIR(Q1) × Bandwidth
```
6. Compute smoothed I2 and Q2:
```
I2 = I1 - jQ
Q2 = Q1 + jI
I2 = 0.2×I2 + 0.8×I2[1] (smooth)
Q2 = 0.2×Q2 + 0.8×Q2[1] (smooth)
```
7. Return both components:
```
return [I2, Q2]
```
Where `Hilbert_FIR` is a finite impulse response filter with coefficients [0.0962, 0.5769, 0, -0.5769, -0.0962].
> 🔍 **Technical Note:** The I and Q components form a complex number representation of the cycle. The dominant cycle period is calculated internally and used to adapt the bandwidth, but the phasor components themselves are the primary output. These can be used to derive amplitude (magnitude = √(I²+Q²)), phase (angle = atan2(Q,I)), and rate of change of phase (instantaneous frequency).
## Interpretation Details
HT_PHASOR provides direct access to cycle components for advanced analysis:
* **Component Oscillation:**
* Both I and Q oscillate around zero
* Amplitude of oscillation indicates cycle strength
* Regular sinusoidal patterns indicate clean cycles
* Irregular patterns suggest trending or transitional periods
* **Phasor Magnitude (√(I²+Q²)):**
* Large magnitude: Strong cyclical behavior
* Small magnitude: Weak cycle or trending phase
* Constant magnitude: Pure cycle mode
* Varying magnitude: Mixed cycle/trend mode
* **Phase Angle (atan2(Q,I)):**
* Derived phase ranges from -π to π
* Constant rotation rate indicates steady cycle
* Accelerating rotation suggests cycle compression
* Decelerating rotation suggests cycle expansion
* **Component Relationships:**
* I and Q approximately 90° out of phase in clean cycles
* Loss of quadrature relationship indicates trend dominance
* Relative magnitudes reveal cycle shape distortions
* Sign changes indicate cycle progression through quadrants
* **Custom Indicator Construction:**
* Amplitude: `sqrt(I² + Q²)` for cycle strength
* Phase: `atan2(Q, I)` for cycle position
* Frequency: Rate of change of phase angle
* Power: `I² + Q²` for energy without sqrt overhead
## Performance Profile
### Operation Count (Streaming Mode, per Bar)
| Operation | Count | Cost (cycles) | Subtotal |
| :--- | :---: | :---: | :---: |
| ADD/SUB | 28 | 1 | 28 |
| MUL | 32 | 3 | 96 |
| DIV | 2 | 15 | 30 |
| **Total** | **62** | — | **~154 cycles** |
**Breakdown:**
- **Price smoothing** (WMA-4): 4 MUL + 3 ADD + 1 DIV = ~20 cycles
- **Hilbert FIR (Detrender)**: 4 MUL + 4 ADD = ~16 cycles
- **Bandwidth adaptation**: 2 MUL + 1 ADD = ~7 cycles
- **Hilbert FIR (Q1)**: 4 MUL + 4 ADD = ~16 cycles
- **Hilbert FIR (jI)**: 4 MUL + 4 ADD = ~16 cycles
- **Hilbert FIR (jQ)**: 4 MUL + 4 ADD = ~16 cycles
- **I2/Q2 computation**: 2 ADD/SUB = ~2 cycles
- **EMA smoothing (×2)**: 4 MUL + 4 ADD = ~16 cycles
- **Period calculation** (internal): ~45 cycles (includes atan)
Note: Unlike HT_DCPHASE, HT_PHASOR outputs raw I/Q components without final atan2, saving ~80 cycles. Period calculation is internal for bandwidth adaptation.
### Complexity Analysis
| Mode | Complexity | Notes |
| :--- | :---: | :--- |
| Streaming | O(1) | Fixed Hilbert FIR taps, EMA smoothing |
| Batch | O(n) | Linear scan over price bars |
**Memory**: ~120 bytes (state variables for 4 Hilbert FIRs, smoothed I2/Q2, period tracking)
### SIMD Analysis
| Optimization | Applicable | Notes |
| :--- | :---: | :--- |
| AVX2 vectorization | ❌ | Recursive IIR (EMA) dependencies |
| FMA | ✅ | EMA smoothing: `prev * 0.8 + curr * 0.2` |
| Batch parallelism | ❌ | State-dependent recursion |
**FMA opportunities:**
- EMA smoothing uses `a*b + c` pattern
- Hilbert FIR coefficients are fixed, enabling compile-time optimization
### Quality Metrics
| Metric | Score | Notes |
| :--- | :---: | :--- |
| **Accuracy** | 8/10 | High-quality phasor extraction via Hilbert Transform |
| **Timeliness** | 6/10 | ~3-bar inherent delay from FIR smoothing |
| **Flexibility** | 9/10 | Raw I/Q enables custom amplitude/phase derivation |
| **Smoothness** | 7/10 | EMA smoothing reduces noise; some jitter in transitions |
## Limitations and Considerations
* **Raw Components:** Less intuitive than derived metrics (phase, amplitude); requires understanding of complex analysis
* **Trend Dependence:** Component values less meaningful in strong trending markets
* **Computation Required:** User must compute derived metrics (amplitude, phase) from I and Q components
* **Noise Sensitivity:** Can show erratic behavior in choppy markets without clear cycles
* **Cycle Assumption:** Assumes dominant cycle exists; questionable in random walk conditions
* **Advanced Tool:** Primarily for custom indicator development and algorithmic trading applications

# HT_SINE: Hilbert Transform - SineWave
[Pine Script Implementation of HT_SINE](https://github.com/mihakralj/pinescript/blob/main/indicators/cycles/ht_sine.pine)
## Overview and Purpose
The Hilbert Transform SineWave (HT_SINE) is a cycle visualization indicator developed by John Ehlers that generates sine and lead-sine wave plots based on the dominant market cycle identified through Hilbert Transform analysis. Unlike simple sine wave indicators that assume a fixed cycle period, HT_SINE adapts to the actual dominant cycle present in the market, providing a dynamic representation of cyclical behavior. The lead-sine component leads the sine wave, offering early signals of potential cycle turning points.
This indicator transforms the complex phase information from Hilbert Transform analysis into intuitive sine wave visualizations that oscillate between -1 and +1. By plotting both the sine wave (current cycle position) and lead-sine wave (advanced cycle position), traders can identify cycle peaks, troughs, and transitions. Crossovers between the sine and lead-sine waves often coincide with significant price turning points, making this a valuable tool for timing entries and exits in cyclical markets.
## Core Concepts
* **Sine Wave**: Visual representation of the dominant cycle position; oscillates smoothly between -1 and +1
* **Lead Sine Wave**: Phase-advanced version of sine wave; leads by delta_phase/period for early signals
* **Dynamic Phase**: Uses instantaneous phase from Hilbert Transform rather than fixed cycle assumption
* **Adaptive Cycle**: Automatically adjusts to dominant cycle period detected in price data
* **Crossover Signals**: Sine/LeadSine crossovers indicate potential cycle turning points
## Common Settings and Parameters
| Parameter | Default | Function | When to Adjust |
| ------ | ------ | ------ | ------ |
| Source | source | Data source for cycle analysis | Use close for simpler signals; hlc3 for smoother, more comprehensive cycle detection |
**Pro Tip:** Watch for crossovers between the sine and lead-sine waves as potential cycle reversal signals. When lead-sine crosses above sine near the trough (-1), it suggests an upcoming cycle bottom. When lead-sine crosses below sine near the peak (+1), it suggests an upcoming cycle top. The indicator works best in ranging or cyclical markets; strong trends can produce less reliable signals as the cycle assumption breaks down.
## Calculation and Mathematical Foundation
**Simplified explanation:**
HT_SINE uses Hilbert Transform to determine the dominant cycle's phase, then generates sine and lead-sine waves based on that phase for visual cycle representation.
**Technical formula:**
1. Smooth the price data:
```
SmoothPrice = (4×Price + 3×Price[1] + 2×Price[2] + Price[3]) / 10
```
2. Detrend with adaptive bandwidth:
```
Bandwidth = 0.075 × Period[1] + 0.54
Detrender = Hilbert_FIR(SmoothPrice) × Bandwidth
```
3. Calculate Quadrature and In-phase components:
```
Q1 = Hilbert_FIR(Detrender) × Bandwidth
I1 = Detrender[3]
```
4. Apply Hilbert Transform:
```
jI = Hilbert_FIR(I1) × Bandwidth
jQ = Hilbert_FIR(Q1) × Bandwidth
```
5. Compute smoothed I2 and Q2:
```
I2 = I1 - jQ
Q2 = Q1 + jI
I2 = 0.2×I2 + 0.8×I2[1]
Q2 = 0.2×Q2 + 0.8×Q2[1]
```
6. Calculate phase using four-quadrant arctangent:
```
if I2 > 0:
Phase = atan(Q2 / I2)
else if I2 < 0:
Phase = atan(Q2 / I2) ± π
else:
Phase = ±π/2
```
7. Compute phase change and alpha:
```
DeltaPhase = max(Phase[1] - Phase, 1.0)
Alpha = DeltaPhase / Period
```
8. Generate sine waves:
```
Sine = sin(Phase)
LeadSine = sin(Phase + Alpha)
```
Where `Hilbert_FIR` is a finite impulse response filter with coefficients [0.0962, 0.5769, 0, -0.5769, -0.0962].
> 🔍 **Technical Note:** The lead-sine component is phase-advanced by alpha (DeltaPhase/Period), causing it to lead the sine wave. The minimum DeltaPhase constraint of 1.0 prevents division issues when phase changes slowly. The sine waves are bounded between -1 and +1, providing normalized cycle visualization regardless of price magnitude.
## Interpretation Details
HT_SINE provides cycle visualization and timing signals through multiple perspectives:
* **Wave Position:**
* Sine ≈ +1: Cycle peak (potential sell zone)
* Sine ≈ 0: Mid-cycle (transition zone)
* Sine ≈ -1: Cycle trough (potential buy zone)
* Regular oscillation indicates clean cyclical behavior
* **Crossover Signals:**
* LeadSine crosses above Sine: Potential bullish reversal signal
* LeadSine crosses below Sine: Potential bearish reversal signal
* Crossovers near extremes (+1 or -1) are most reliable
* Multiple rapid crossovers suggest choppy, non-cyclical conditions
* **Wave Separation:**
* Wide separation: Strong, clear cycle in progress
* Narrow separation: Weak or transitioning cycle
* Consistent spacing: Steady cycle frequency
* Erratic spacing: Cycle instability or trend dominance
* **Extreme Levels:**
* Both waves at +1: Confirmed cycle peak
* Both waves at -1: Confirmed cycle trough
* Failure to reach extremes: Weakening cycle or trend emergence
* Extended time at extremes: Possible trend rather than cycle
* **Lead-Lag Relationship:**
* Lead-sine consistently ahead: Normal cycle mode
* Lead-sine loses leadership: Cycle breaking down
* Waves synchronizing: Transitioning to trend mode
* Lead reversing direction first: Early warning signal

| **Smoothness** | 9/10 | Sine waves naturally smooth; bounded [-1, +1] |
| **Signal Clarity** | 7/10 | Clear crossover signals; can whipsaw in trends |
## Limitations and Considerations
* **Cycle Assumption:** Assumes market is in cyclical mode; less reliable during strong trends
* **Lag Component:** Despite "lead-sine," overall indicator lags actual price action due to Hilbert Transform smoothing
* **False Signals:** Can generate whipsaws in choppy, non-cyclical markets
* **Trend Weakness:** Strong directional moves violate cycle assumptions, producing unreliable waves
* **Period Dependency:** Relies on accurate dominant cycle detection; errors in period affect wave quality
* **Visual Tool:** Best used as confirmation with other indicators rather than standalone timing tool

# LUNAR: Lunar Phase
[Pine Script Implementation of LUNAR](https://github.com/mihakralj/pinescript/blob/main/indicators/cycles/lunar.pine)
## Overview and Purpose
The Lunar Phase indicator is an astronomical calculator that provides precise values representing the current phase of the moon on any given date. Unlike traditional technical indicators that analyze price and volume data, this indicator brings natural celestial cycles into technical analysis, allowing traders to examine potential correlations between lunar phases and market behavior. The indicator outputs a normalized value from 0.0 (new moon) to 1.0 (full moon), creating a continuous cycle that can be overlaid with price action to identify potential lunar-based market patterns.
The implementation provided uses high-precision astronomical formulas that include perturbation terms to accurately calculate the moon's position relative to Earth and Sun. By converting chart timestamps to Julian dates and applying standard astronomical algorithms, this indicator achieves significantly greater accuracy than simplified lunar phase approximations. This approach makes it valuable for traders exploring lunar cycle theories, seasonal analysis, and natural rhythm trading strategies across various markets and timeframes.
## Core Concepts
* **Lunar cycle integration:** Brings the 29.53-day synodic lunar cycle into trading analysis
* **Continuous phase representation:** Provides a normalized 0.0-1.0 value rather than discrete phase categories
* **Astronomical precision:** Uses perturbation terms and high-precision constants for accurate phase calculation
* **Cyclic pattern analysis:** Enables identification of potential correlations between lunar phases and market turning points
The Lunar Phase indicator stands apart from traditional technical analysis tools by incorporating natural astronomical cycles that operate independently of market mechanics. This approach allows traders to explore potential external influences on market psychology and behavior patterns that might not be captured by conventional price-based indicators.
## Common Settings and Parameters
| Parameter | Default | Function | When to Adjust |
| ------ | ------ | ------ | ------ |
| n/a | n/a | The indicator has no adjustable parameters | n/a |
**Pro Tip:** While the indicator itself doesn't have adjustable parameters, try using it with a higher timeframe setting (multi-day or weekly charts) to better visualize long-term lunar cycle patterns across multiple market cycles. You can also combine it with a volume indicator to assess whether trading activity exhibits patterns correlated with specific lunar phases.
## Calculation and Mathematical Foundation
**Simplified explanation:**
The Lunar Phase indicator calculates the angular difference between the moon and sun as viewed from Earth, returning both a normalized phase value and precise moon phase detection based on exact angular positions.
**Technical formula:**
1. Convert chart timestamp to Julian Date:
JD = (time / 86400000.0) + 2440587.5
2. Calculate Time T in Julian centuries since J2000.0:
T = (JD - 2451545.0) / 36525.0
3. Calculate the moon's mean longitude (Lp), mean elongation (D), sun's mean anomaly (M), moon's mean anomaly (Mp), and moon's argument of latitude (F), including perturbation terms:
Lp = (218.3164477 + 481267.88123421*T - 0.0015786*T² + T³/538841.0 - T⁴/65194000.0) % 360.0
D = (297.8501921 + 445267.1114034*T - 0.0018819*T² + T³/545868.0 - T⁴/113065000.0) % 360.0
M = (357.5291092 + 35999.0502909*T - 0.0001536*T² + T³/24490000.0) % 360.0
Mp = (134.9633964 + 477198.8675055*T + 0.0087414*T² + T³/69699.0 - T⁴/14712000.0) % 360.0
F = (93.2720950 + 483202.0175233*T - 0.0036539*T² - T³/3526000.0 + T⁴/863310000.0) % 360.0
4. Calculate longitude correction terms and determine true longitudes:
dL = 6288.016*sin(Mp) + 1274.242*sin(2D-Mp) + 658.314*sin(2D) + 214.818*sin(2Mp) + 186.986*sin(M) + 109.154*sin(2F)
L_moon = Lp + dL/1000000.0
L_sun = (280.46646 + 36000.76983*T + 0.0003032*T²) % 360.0
5. Calculate phase angle (in degrees) and normalized phase:
phase_angle = ((L_moon - L_sun) % 360.0)
phase = (1.0 - cos(phase_angle * π/180)) / 2.0
6. Calculate phase angle and moon phase:
* Calculate phase angles at both start and end of bar period
* Moon phase detection logic:
* New Moon: crossing 0° or 360° from below, or within ±1° of either angle
* First Quarter: crossing 90° from below, or within ±1° of 90°
* Full Moon: crossing 180° from below, or within ±1° of 180°
* Last Quarter: crossing 270° from below, or within ±1° of 270°
> 🔍 **Technical Note:** The implementation includes several key optimizations:
> 1. High-order perturbation terms for accurate moon position calculation
> 2. Bar period analysis that detects phase changes occurring within the bar window
> 3. Precise transition detection that identifies the exact bar when a phase change occurs
> 4. Phase angle tolerance of ±1° to account for calculation precision
## Interpretation Details
The Lunar Phase indicator provides dual analysis capabilities:
1. Continuous Phase Value (0.0 to 1.0):
* Real-time lunar phase progression
* Smooth transition through cycle phases
* Useful for gradual trend analysis
* Shows relative position between major phases
2. Precise Moon Phase Detection (0-4):
* **New Moon (1):** Detected during the bar where moon-sun alignment occurs (0° or 360°)
* **First Quarter (2):** Identified on the exact bar of 90° moon-sun separation
* **Full Moon (3):** Signaled when moon is opposite to sun (180°)
* **Last Quarter (4):** Marked at precise 270° moon-sun separation
* **Other Phases (0):** All non-critical phase angles
The combination of continuous phase value and discrete phase detection allows for both trend analysis and precise timing of lunar events. This can be particularly useful for:
* Identifying exact timing of lunar phase changes
* Analyzing market behavior around precise lunar events
* Developing trading strategies based on lunar cycles

# PHASOR: Phasor Analysis (Ehlers)
[Pine Script Implementation of Phasor](https://github.com/mihakralj/pinescript/blob/main/indicators/cycles/phasor.pine)
## Overview and Purpose
The Phasor Analysis indicator, developed by John Ehlers, represents an advanced cycle analysis tool that identifies the phase of the dominant cycle component in a time series through complex signal processing techniques. This sophisticated indicator uses correlation-based methods to determine the real and imaginary components of the signal, converting them to a continuous phase angle that reveals market cycle progression. Unlike traditional oscillators, the Phasor provides unwrapped phase measurements that accumulate continuously, offering unique insights into market timing and cycle behavior.
## Core Concepts
* **Complex Signal Analysis** — Uses real and imaginary components to determine cycle phase
* **Correlation-Based Detection** — Employs Ehlers' correlation method for robust phase estimation
* **Unwrapped Phase Tracking** — Provides continuous phase accumulation without discontinuities
* **Anti-Regression Logic** — Prevents phase angle from moving backward under specific conditions
Market Applications:
* **Cycle Timing** — Precise identification of cycle peaks and troughs
* **Market Regime Analysis** — Distinguishes between trending and cycling market conditions
* **Turning Point Detection** — Advanced warning system for potential market reversals
## Common Settings and Parameters
| Parameter | Default | Function | When to Adjust |
| ------ | ------ | ------ | ------ |
| Period | 28 | Fixed cycle period for correlation analysis | Match to expected dominant cycle length |
| Source | source | Data source for phase calculation | Use typical price or other smoothed series |
| Show Derived Period | false | Display calculated period from phase rate | Enable for adaptive period analysis |
| Show Trend State | false | Display trend/cycle state variable | Enable for regime identification |
## Calculation and Mathematical Foundation
**Technical Formula:**
**Stage 1: Correlation Analysis**
For period $n$ and source $x_t$:
Real component correlation with cosine wave:
$$R = \frac{n \sum x_t \cos\left(\frac{2\pi t}{n}\right) - \sum x_t \sum \cos\left(\frac{2\pi t}{n}\right)}{\sqrt{D_{cos}}}$$
Imaginary component correlation with negative sine wave:
$$I = \frac{n \sum x_t \left(-\sin\left(\frac{2\pi t}{n}\right)\right) - \sum x_t \sum \left(-\sin\left(\frac{2\pi t}{n}\right)\right)}{\sqrt{D_{sin}}}$$
where $D_{cos}$ and $D_{sin}$ are normalization denominators.
**Stage 2: Phase Angle Conversion**
$$\theta_{raw} = \begin{cases}
90° - \arctan\left(\frac{I}{R}\right) \cdot \frac{180°}{\pi} & \text{if } R \neq 0 \\
0° & \text{if } R = 0, I > 0 \\
180° & \text{if } R = 0, I \leq 0
\end{cases}$$
**Stage 3: Phase Unwrapping**
$$\theta_{unwrapped}(t) = \theta_{unwrapped}(t-1) + \Delta\theta$$
where $\Delta\theta$ is the normalized phase difference.
**Stage 4: Ehlers' Anti-Regression Condition**
$$\theta_{final}(t) = \begin{cases}
\theta_{final}(t-1) & \text{if regression conditions met} \\
\theta_{unwrapped}(t) & \text{otherwise}
\end{cases}$$
**Derived Calculations:**
Derived Period: $P_{derived} = \frac{360°}{\Delta\theta_{final}}$ (clamped to [1, 60])
Trend State:
$$S_{trend} = \begin{cases}
1 & \text{if } \Delta\theta \leq 6° \text{ and } |\theta| \geq 90° \\
-1 & \text{if } \Delta\theta \leq 6° \text{ and } |\theta| < 90° \\
0 & \text{if } \Delta\theta > 6°
\end{cases}$$
> 🔍 **Technical Note:** The correlation-based approach provides robust phase estimation even in noisy market conditions, while the unwrapping mechanism ensures continuous phase tracking across cycle boundaries.
## Interpretation Details
* **Phasor Angle (Primary Output):**
* **+90°**: Potential cycle peak region
* **0°**: Mid-cycle ascending phase
* **-90°**: Potential cycle trough region
* **±180°**: Mid-cycle descending phase
* **Phase Progression:**
* Continuous upward movement → Normal cycle progression
* Phase stalling → Potential cycle extension or trend development
* Rapid phase changes → Cycle compression or volatility spike
* **Derived Period Analysis:**
* Period < 10 → High-frequency cycle dominance
* Period 15-40 → Typical swing trading cycles
* Period > 50 → Trending market conditions
* **Trend State Variable:**
* **+1**: Long trend conditions (slow phase change in extreme zones)
* **-1**: Short trend or consolidation (slow phase change in neutral zones)
* **0**: Active cycling (normal phase change rate)
## Applications
* **Cycle-Based Trading:**
* Enter long positions near -90° crossings (cycle troughs)
* Enter short positions near +90° crossings (cycle peaks)
* Exit positions during mid-cycle phases (0°, ±180°)
* **Market Timing:**
* Use phase acceleration for early trend detection
* Monitor derived period for cycle length changes
* Combine with trend state for regime-appropriate strategies
* **Risk Management:**
* Adjust position sizes based on cycle clarity (derived period stability)
* Implement different risk parameters for trending vs. cycling regimes
* Use phase velocity for stop-loss placement timing

# SINE: Ehlers Sine Wave Indicator
[Pine Script Implementation of SINE](https://github.com/mihakralj/pinescript/blob/main/indicators/cycles/sine.pine)
## Overview and Purpose
The Sine Wave indicator, a foundational concept in John Ehlers' work on cycle analysis, plots a theoretical sinewave based on an assumed dominant cycle period in the market. As Ehlers describes in "Stay in Phase," a cycle can be visualized as a 360-degree rotation, and its **phase** describes the current position within that rotation. The Sine Wave indicator translates this phase into a sinusoidal wave, helping traders visualize cyclical patterns. It typically includes two components: the primary sinewave representing the current phase, and a "lead" sinewave, phase-shifted forward to potentially anticipate cycle turns.
Ehlers emphasizes that while market cycles can be ephemeral, their phase is a measurable parameter that can offer insights into market modes, particularly for identifying trend conditions. This basic version of the Sine Wave indicator relies on the user to specify the dominant cycle period, rather than measuring it directly from price data.
## Core Concepts
* **Assumed Dominant Cycle:** The indicator operates on the premise that a dominant cycle of a specific, user-defined period exists.
* **Phase as a Key Parameter:** Following Ehlers' view, the phase of the cycle is a critical element. A cycle is considered a 360-degree movement, and the phase indicates the location within this cycle.
* **Phase Accumulation:** The indicator tracks the phase of this assumed cycle, incrementing it with each bar. The phase is typically reset or wrapped around after completing 360 degrees to start the next cycle.
* **Sinusoidal Representation:** The current phase is converted into a sinewave value, oscillating between +1 and -1, much like a pen on a rotating shaft (phasor diagram) would draw a wave on paper moving at a uniform rate.
* **Lead Wave:** A second sinewave is generated with a forward phase shift (e.g., 45 degrees), providing a leading indication relative to the primary sinewave. This can help in anticipating changes in the cycle's direction.
## Common Settings and Parameters
| Parameter | Default | Function | When to Adjust |
| --------- | ------- | -------- | -------------- |
| Dominant Cycle Period | 20 | The assumed length of the dominant market cycle in bars. This directly determines the frequency of the sinewave. | This is the most critical parameter. Adjust to match the visually identified dominant cycle length in the market or based on other cycle analysis. |
| Delta | 0.5 | Phase shift multiplier for the lead sinewave (0.5 corresponds to a 45-degree lead as 0.5 * 90 degrees). | Increase for a greater lead, decrease for less. A common value is 0.5. |
**Pro Tip:** The effectiveness of the Sine Wave indicator heavily relies on the accuracy of the `Dominant Cycle Period` input. If the market's actual dominant cycle changes, this parameter needs to be readjusted.
## Calculation and Mathematical Foundation
**Simplified explanation:**
1. Assume a fixed cycle period (e.g., 20 bars).
2. Calculate how much the phase of the cycle should advance with each new bar (e.g., 360 degrees / 20 bars = 18 degrees per bar).
3. Keep track of the cumulative phase, wrapping it around after it completes a full 360-degree cycle.
4. Generate a sinewave value based on the current cumulative phase.
5. Generate a second "lead" sinewave by adding a fixed phase advance (e.g., 45 degrees) to the current phase before calculating its sine value.
**Technical formula:**
1. **Phase Increment per bar:**
`PhaseIncrement = 360 / DominantCyclePeriod`
2. **Cumulative Phase (dcPhase):**
`dcPhase_current = (dcPhase_previous + PhaseIncrement) % 360` (modulo 360 ensures wrapping)
3. **Sinewaves:**
`SineWave = sin(dcPhase_current * PI/180)`
`LeadSineWave = sin(((dcPhase_current + delta * 90) % 360) * PI/180)` (phase lead also wrapped)
> 🔍 **Technical Note:** This indicator generates a mathematically perfect sinewave based on the input period. It does not adapt to changes in market cycle length unless the `Dominant Cycle Period` parameter is manually changed. The `delta` parameter directly controls the phase lead of the second sinewave. The modulo operation ensures the phase correctly wraps around 360 degrees.
## Interpretation Details
* **Cycle Visualization:** The primary sinewave shows the theoretical position within the assumed market cycle. Peaks indicate potential cycle tops, and troughs indicate potential cycle bottoms.
* **Timing Signals (Lead Wave Crossovers):**
* When the Lead Sine Wave crosses above the Sine Wave, it can be interpreted as an early signal of an upcoming upward phase in the cycle (potential buy signal).
* When the Lead Sine Wave crosses below the Sine Wave, it can be interpreted as an early signal of an upcoming downward phase in the cycle (potential sell signal).
* **Zero Line Crossovers:**
* Sine Wave crossing up through zero: Indicates the theoretical start of an up-cycle.
* Sine Wave crossing down through zero: Indicates the theoretical start of a down-cycle.
* **Signal Levels (e.g., +/- 0.707):** The levels corresponding to +/- 45 degrees (approximately +/- 0.707) are often watched. The lead wave crossing these levels before the main sinewave can also be used for anticipation.
## Limitations and Considerations
* **Fixed Period:** The primary limitation is its reliance on a fixed, user-defined cycle period. Real market cycles are dynamic and change over time. If the assumed period is incorrect, the indicator will provide misleading information.
* **No Adaptation:** Unlike more advanced Ehlers indicators (like those using Hilbert Transforms or other DSP techniques), this basic Sine Wave does not measure or adapt to the actual dominant cycle in the price data.
* **Lag:** While the lead wave attempts to reduce lag, the fundamental calculation is still based on past data and an assumed cycle.
* **Market Conditions:** Most effective in markets that exhibit relatively regular cyclical behavior. In strongly trending or very choppy markets, its utility diminishes.
* **Subjectivity:** Choosing the correct `Dominant Cycle Period` is subjective and requires careful observation or other analytical methods.
## C# Implementation Considerations
The QuanTAlib implementation of SINE uses an efficient circular buffer approach with the following optimizations:
* **Circular Buffer:** Uses `CircularBuffer` to maintain the phase history with O(1) operations for adding new values and accessing historical data.
* **Incremental Phase Calculation:** The phase is calculated incrementally by adding a fixed phase increment per bar, avoiding recalculation of the entire history.
* **Modulo Wrapping:** Phase values are wrapped using modulo 360 to ensure they stay within the 0-360 degree range.
* **Warmup Handling:** The indicator properly handles the warmup period, requiring at least one data point before producing valid output.
* **Memory Efficiency:** Only stores the minimum required historical data (period + 1 values) rather than the entire price history.

# SOLAR: Solar Cycle
[Pine Script Implementation of SOLAR](https://github.com/mihakralj/pinescript/blob/main/indicators/cycles/solar.pine)
## Overview and Purpose
The Solar Cycle indicator is an astronomical calculator that provides precise values representing the seasonal position of the Sun throughout the year. This indicator maps the Sun's position in the ecliptic to a normalized value ranging from -1.0 (winter solstice) through 0.0 (equinoxes) to +1.0 (summer solstice), creating a continuous cycle that represents the seasonal progression throughout the year.
The implementation uses high-precision astronomical formulas that include orbital elements and perturbation terms to accurately calculate the Sun's position. By converting chart timestamps to Julian dates and applying standard astronomical algorithms, this indicator achieves significantly greater accuracy than simplified seasonal approximations. This makes it valuable for traders exploring seasonal patterns, agricultural commodities trading, and natural cycle-based trading strategies.
## Core Concepts
* **Seasonal cycle integration:** Maps the annual solar cycle (365.242 days) to a continuous wave
* **Continuous phase representation:** Provides a normalized -1.0 to +1.0 value
* **Astronomical precision:** Uses perturbation terms and high-precision constants for accurate solar position
* **Key points detection:** Identifies solstices (±1.0) and equinoxes (0.0) automatically
The Solar Cycle indicator differs from traditional seasonal analysis tools by incorporating precise astronomical calculations rather than using simple calendar-based approximations. This approach allows traders to identify exact seasonal turning points and transitions with high accuracy.
## Common Settings and Parameters
| Parameter | Default | Function | When to Adjust |
| ------ | ------ | ------ | ------ |
| n/a | n/a | The indicator has no adjustable parameters | n/a |
**Pro Tip:** While the indicator itself doesn't have adjustable parameters, it's most effective when used on higher timeframes (daily or weekly charts) to visualize seasonal patterns. Consider combining it with commodity price data to analyze seasonal correlations.
## Calculation and Mathematical Foundation
**Simplified explanation:**
The Solar Cycle indicator calculates the Sun's ecliptic longitude and transforms it into a sine wave that peaks at the summer solstice and troughs at the winter solstice, with equinoxes at the zero crossings.
**Technical formula:**
1. Convert chart timestamp to Julian Date:
JD = (time / 86400000.0) + 2440587.5
2. Calculate Time T in Julian centuries since J2000.0:
T = (JD - 2451545.0) / 36525.0
3. Calculate the Sun's mean longitude (L0) and mean anomaly (M), including perturbation terms:
L0 = (280.46646 + 36000.76983*T + 0.0003032*T²) % 360
M = (357.52911 + 35999.05029*T - 0.0001537*T² - 0.00000025*T³) % 360
4. Calculate the equation of center (C):
C = (1.914602 - 0.004817*T - 0.000014*T²)*sin(M) +
(0.019993 - 0.000101*T)*sin(2M) +
0.000289*sin(3M)
5. Calculate the Sun's true longitude and convert to seasonal value:
λ = L0 + C
seasonal = sin(λ)
> 🔍 **Technical Note:** The implementation includes terms for the equation of center to account for the Earth's elliptical orbit. This provides more accurate timing of solstices and equinoxes compared to simple harmonic approximations.
## Interpretation Details
The Solar Cycle indicator provides several analytical perspectives:
* **Summer Solstice (+1.0):** Maximum solar elevation, longest day
* **Winter Solstice (-1.0):** Minimum solar elevation, shortest day
* **Vernal Equinox (0.0 crossing up):** Day and night equal length, spring begins
* **Autumnal Equinox (0.0 crossing down):** Day and night equal length, autumn begins
* **Transition rates:** Steepest near equinoxes, flattest near solstices
* **Cycle alignment:** Market cycles that align with seasonal patterns may show stronger trends
* **Confirmation points:** Solstices and equinoxes often mark important seasonal turning points
## Limitations and Considerations
* **Geographic relevance:** Solar cycle timing is most relevant for temperate latitudes
* **Market specificity:** Seasonal effects vary significantly across different markets
* **Timeframe compatibility:** Most effective for longer-term analysis (weekly/monthly)
* **Complementary tool:** Should be used alongside price action and other indicators
* **Lead/lag effects:** Market reactions to seasonal changes may precede or follow astronomical events
* **Statistical significance:** Seasonal patterns should be verified across multiple years
* **Global markets:** Consider opposite seasonality in Southern Hemisphere markets

# SSF-DSP: Super Smooth Filter Based Detrended Synthetic Price
[Pine Script Implementation of SSF-DSP](https://github.com/mihakralj/pinescript/blob/main/indicators/cycles/ssfdsp.pine)
## Overview and Purpose
The Super Smooth Filter Based Detrended Synthetic Price (SSF-DSP) is an enhanced variant of John Ehlers' Detrended Synthetic Price that replaces the traditional EMA filters with Super Smooth Filters. This advanced implementation provides superior noise reduction and cleaner passband characteristics while maintaining the core band-pass filtering concept. By using SSF's optimized pole placement with complex conjugates, SSF-DSP achieves exceptional cycle isolation with minimal waveform distortion, making it particularly valuable for identifying dominant market cycles in moderately noisy conditions.
The indicator calculates the difference between a quarter-cycle SSF and a half-cycle SSF, creating a band-pass filter that isolates the dominant cycle component while removing both high-frequency noise and low-frequency trend. This mathematical relationship effectively detrends the price data, revealing the underlying cyclic structure that drives market oscillations.
## Core Concepts
* **Dual SSF Structure:** Uses two independent Super Smooth Filters at quarter-cycle and half-cycle periods derived from the dominant cycle
* **Band-Pass Filtering:** The difference between fast and slow SSFs creates a filter that passes the dominant cycle frequency while rejecting noise and trend
* **Enhanced Smoothing:** SSF's Butterworth-style response provides cleaner filtering than EMA-based DSP with better roll-off characteristics
* **Cycle Isolation:** Reveals the pure cyclic component of price movement by removing both short-term noise and long-term trend
* **Reduced Lag:** Despite heavier smoothing, SSF maintains reasonable lag characteristics due to optimized coefficient design
## Common Settings and Parameters
| Parameter | Default | Function | When to Adjust |
| ------ | ------ | ------ | ------ |
| Source | source | Data source for calculation | hlc3 provides balanced price representation; close for directional bias |
| Period | 40 | Dominant cycle period in bars | Match to your identified dominant cycle (typically 20-50 bars for daily charts) |
**Pro Tip:** SSF-DSP provides cleaner signals than EMA-based DSP with ~1.5-2x more smoothing. If you use period=40 for regular DSP, try period=30-35 for SSF-DSP to achieve similar responsiveness with better noise rejection.
## Calculation and Mathematical Foundation
**Simplified explanation:**
SSF-DSP applies two Super Smooth Filters to the price data—one tuned to quarter of the dominant cycle period and one to half the period. The difference between these two filtered signals creates a band-pass effect that isolates the dominant cycle frequency while removing both high-frequency noise and low-frequency trend components.
**Technical formula:**
1. Calculate quarter-cycle and half-cycle periods:
```
Fast Period = Period / 4
Slow Period = Period / 2
```
2. Calculate SSF coefficients for each filter:
```
arg = √2π / Period
exp_arg = exp(-arg)
c2 = 2 × exp_arg × cos(arg)
c3 = -exp_arg²
c1 = 1 - c2 - c3
```
3. Apply SSF recursion for both filters:
```
SSF_fast = c1_fast × Price + c2_fast × SSF_fast[1] + c3_fast × SSF_fast[2]
SSF_slow = c1_slow × Price + c2_slow × SSF_slow[1] + c3_slow × SSF_slow[2]
```
4. Calculate the difference:
```
SSF-DSP = SSF_fast - SSF_slow
```
> 🔍 **Technical Note:** The √2 factor in SSF coefficient calculations creates a maximally flat Butterworth magnitude response, providing optimal smoothness in the passband. This results in cleaner cycle isolation compared to EMA-based DSP, which uses simple exponential weighting.
## Interpretation Details
SSF-DSP provides enhanced cycle analysis capabilities:
* **Zero-Line Crossovers:**
* Crossing above zero: Indicates cycle is in upward phase with improving momentum
* Crossing below zero: Indicates cycle is in downward phase with weakening momentum
* More reliable than EMA-DSP due to superior noise rejection
* **Peak and Trough Identification:**
* Peaks indicate cycle tops with cleaner signals than EMA-DSP
* Troughs indicate cycle bottoms with reduced false positives
* Peak-to-peak distance estimates the current cycle period
* **Amplitude Analysis:**
* Larger swings indicate stronger cyclic component in the market
* Decreasing amplitude suggests cycle is weakening or market entering consolidation
* Cleaner amplitude measurement than EMA-DSP
* **Divergence Detection:**
* Price making new highs while SSF-DSP makes lower highs: bearish divergence
* Price making new lows while SSF-DSP makes higher lows: bullish divergence
* More reliable divergence signals due to superior noise filtering
* **Cycle Phase Tracking:**
* Monitor position relative to zero to determine cycle phase
* Use in conjunction with HT_DCPERIOD for adaptive period selection
* Cleaner phase identification than EMA-based variant
## Limitations and Considerations
* **Increased Lag:** SSF introduces ~1.5-2x more lag than EMA while providing superior smoothing—may delay signals in fast-moving markets
* **Period Dependency:** Requires accurate dominant cycle period estimate for optimal performance
* **Initialization Period:** Needs more bars than EMA-DSP to stabilize (approximately 2× the period setting)
* **Computational Complexity:** Slightly more intensive than EMA-DSP due to trigonometric coefficient calculations (though still O(1) per bar)
* **Oversmoothing Risk:** In very choppy markets, excessive smoothing may reduce signal responsiveness
* **Best Suited For:** Moderately noisy markets where clean cycle isolation is priority over minimal lag
## Comparison to EMA-Based DSP
| Characteristic | SSF-DSP | EMA-DSP |
| ------ | ------ | ------ |
| Noise Rejection | Excellent | Good |
| Lag | Moderate | Low |
| Passband Ripple | Minimal | Moderate |
| Roll-off | Sharp | Gradual |
| Best For | Clean cycle isolation | Responsive trading |
| Computational | O(1) with trig | O(1) simple |
