Relative Strength Index Wave Indicator [CC]The Relative Strength Index Wave Indicator was created by Constance Brown (Technical Analysis for the Trading Professional), and this is a unique indicator that uses the weighted close formula, but instead of using the typical price values, it uses the RSI calculated from the various prices. It then creates a rainbow by smoothing the weighted RSI with four different lengths. As far as the buy or sell signals with this indicator go, I did change things from the original source, so feel free to experiment and let me know if anything works better for you. I decided to do a variation of the original source and create buy and sell signals based on crossovers, but my version only uses the first and second smoothed RSI lines. You could also average all of the lines and buy when the average is rising and sell when it starts to fall. I have used my typical buy and sell signals to use darker colors for strong signals and lighter colors for normal signals. Because of the rainbow effect from the wave, the color changes will only appear for the bar itself when you enable that setting.
Let me know if there is any other script you would like to see me publish! I will have plenty more RSI scripts to publish in the next week. Let me know if you like this indicator series.

Constance Brown RSI*Re-uploading without House Violations*
Welles Wilder created the RSI momentum oscillator in the 1970s. It is a momentum oscillator that ranges from 0 to 100. The traditional idea is to buy when the oscillator is below 30 and to sell when it is above 70. However, this strategy often only catches extreme moves and misses majority of the trend.
In comes Constance Brown RSI . She theorized that in an uptrend, the buy zone exists when RSI is between 40 and 50. The sell zone in an uptrend exists between 80 and 90. In a downtrend, the sell zone exists between 55 and 65. The buy zone in a downtrend exists between 20 and 30.
I have added a moving average feature to determine trend. When the short trend is above the long trend, it is considered an uptrend. It is in a downtrend otherwise. Using short length moving averages will often produce a lot of false signals. I recommend using the 50 and 100 as they will produce less noise.
There will be times when the oscillator breaks beyond the ranges described (for ex: seeing a reading below 40 in an uptrend). This tends to happen in periods of high volatility . Refer to the traditional RSI rules in such cases.

RSI Projection v1Application of concepts from Constance Brown "Technical Analysis for Trading Professionals", specifically: Chapter 7: Price Projections By Reverse Engineering Indicators , and Chapter 8: Price Objectives Derived From Positive and Negative Reversals In The RSI .
Specifically: I wanted to see if better Exit signals for the RSI could be generated from a basic application of some of the concepts in those chapters, and that is what I've found so far:
Exit when the RSI (purple) crosses below the orange line
Orange line is forecasted RSI for positive price reversals, blue line is forecasted RSI for negative price reversals
From what I can tell, this indicator does not work well during chop/consolidation and ranging periods, generating too many false signals without additional confluence from trending indicators and price analysis
This indicator should be considered highly experimental - do not use live trading without proper backtesting and parameter adjustment.
Tuning per asset and timeframe is required due to calculation type for highs/lows used for projection calculations
Derivative Oscillator Cu [ID: AC-P]The "AC-P" version of the Derivative Oscillator is my personal customized version of Constance Brown's Derivative Oscillator (using Everget's implementation of it as the base), with the the following modifications and additions:
VWAP Indication - option to show whether the price input option is above or below the Daily VWAP (red triangles = price input is below vwap, green triangles = price input is above vwap)
Bullish and Bearish phases from shayankm's Waddah Attar Explosion V2 () is included as indication dots (bullish = blue dots, bearish = yellow dots) below/above the Derivative Oscillator histogram
Coral Trend from Lazybear () is included as indication dots (red/green dots below/above the Derivative Oscillator histogram
Input source options for vwap, Waddah components (MACD, Bollinger Upper/Lower)
Centerline option for Coral trend, and Horizontal center option for the Derivative Oscillator with circle indication (optional - provided as option for flexibility in use with overlaying with other indicators)
This indicator is a hybrid, with a combination of leading indicators and lagging trending indicators combined into one. Specifically, a few of the other indicators I use are lacking in the momentum and trend department, and this is one of the indicators I use to address that:
VWAP provides trend information on lower timeframes from a high timeframe interval (D)
Coral Trend provides additional confirmation to VWAP trend wise, and is adjustable
Waddah Attar Explosion provides a third level of confirmation for trending moves, taking into account shorter and longer timeframes (FastEMA and SlowEMA parameters).
Script base for the Derivative Oscillator is credited to Everget () and LazyBear ().

RSI + Composite Index [SHK]One of the most powerful indicator based and divergence strategies i have ever seen was made by Constance Brown.
The Composite Index:
The best way to think of the Composite Index as it applies to the RSI is to think of the RSI as Windows 3.0 and the Composite Index as Windows 10. Constance Brown discovered that the RSI, while it does create and detect divergences, does is not as accurate as it could be. It’s a bit of an oxymoron to say this but the RSI is a momentum indicator without any momentum calculation attached to it. The RSI actually misses a significant amount of important moves and even generates some bad moves. What Constance Brown did with the RSI is to input a momentum calculation within the RSI itself.
Usage:
1. Check hidden and regular divergences on RSI+COMPOSITE_INDEX and PRICE+COMPOSITE_INDEX.
2. After finding divergence wait for COMPOSITE_INDEX to cross under/over it's moving averages to trigger.
Useful Note:
"RSI overbought/oversold as filter", "RSI and COMPOSITE_INDEX trendline as trigger", "RSI 50 Over/Under as trend direction detection", ... can be add to this strategy.
Enjoy!

CBCI RSI ParallelParallel version of CBCI Cu + RSI w/ SMA and EMA. It's both indicators, but combined into one indicator space with an adjustable bidirectional offset for the spacing and location.
According to Constance Brown, both the CBCI and RSI are technically supposed to be used in tandem to easily spot divergences - this is an attempt to put that into practice, in one indicator, in the context of tradingview subscription limitations for non Pro/Premium users.
