Ergodic CSI-Oscillator by William Blau

Calculation:

The CSI Oscillator is defined as follows:

where:

• Ergodic_CSI() - Erogic line - Candlestick Index CSI(price1,price2,q,r,s,u);
• SignalLine() - Signal Line - EMA(ul), applied to Ergodic;
• ul - period of a Signal Line.

• graphic plot #0 - Ergodic Line (Candlestick Index):
• q - number of bars, used in calculation of Candlestick Momentum (by default q=1);
• r - period of the 1st EMA, applied to Candlestick Momentum (by default r=20);
• s - period of the 2nd EMA, applied to result of the 1st smoothing (by default s=5);
• u - period of the 3rd EMA, applied to result of the 2nd smoothing (by default u=3);
• graphic plot #1 - Signal Line:
• ul - period of a Signal Line, EMA(ul) is applied to Ergodic (by default ul=3);
• AppliedPrice1 - price type (by default AppliedPrice1=PRICE_CLOSE);
• AppliedPrice2 - price type (by default AppliedPrice2=PRICE_OPEN).

• q>0;
• r>0, s>0, u>0. If r, s or u are equal to 1, the smoothing is not used;
• ul>0. If ul=1, the Signal and Ergodic Lines are the same;
• Min. rates = (q-1+r+s+u+ul-4+1).
