Core logic

The True Strength Index evaluates price momentum by comparing double-smoothed price changes to double-smoothed absolute price changes and normalizing the result.

Key principles:

* price change reflects directional momentum
* double smoothing reduces noise and false signals
* normalization expresses momentum on a bounded scale
* values above zero indicate bullish momentum
* values below zero indicate bearish momentum
* extreme readings highlight stretched momentum conditions
* a signal line provides additional confirmation

Crossovers between the TSI and its signal line often indicate shifts in momentum strength.

Visualization

The script plots:

* the True Strength Index line in a separate indicator pane
* a smoothed signal line for confirmation
* a zero reference line for directional context
* dashed threshold levels highlighting momentum extremes
* individually configurable colors for TSI and signal

This layout offers a clean and informative view of momentum dynamics.

Use case

This indicator is intended for:

* identifying momentum direction and strength
* confirming trend continuation or exhaustion
* detecting momentum reversals
* spotting divergences between price and momentum
* supporting swing trading and momentum-based strategies

It performs well in trending markets and integrates effectively with trend filters or AI-assisted chart analysis.
