EMA Slope - RSI Indicator# EMA Slope - RSI Indicator
## Script Description (for Publishing Page)
**EMA Slope - RSI Indicator** combines normalized EMA slope momentum analysis with RSI divergence detection and momentum comparison to create a visual signal indicator with five distinct signal types. The indicator's originality lies in its unique "No Trade Zone" (NTZ) concept applied to slope momentum, combined with centered RSI format for direct comparison, and multiple complementary signal methods that work together to identify both trend-following and reversal opportunities across different market conditions.
**Core Concept - EMA Slope Normalization:** Calculates rate of change of long MA (default 160 EMA) by comparing current value to N bars ago (default 3 bars). Raw slope difference normalized to -100 to +100 scale using 500-bar rolling range: normalizedSlope = 100 * (longMA - longMA ) / (highest(maDF, 500) - lowest(maDF, 500)). Creates consistent momentum oscillator comparable across price levels and timeframes.
**No Trade Zone (NTZ) Logic:** NTZ (±8 default) creates neutral zone where slope momentum is too weak for reliable signals. Indicator only triggers NTZ Cross signals when slope crosses out of threshold zone, ensuring signals occur only when momentum is sufficiently strong.
**Centered RSI Format (RSI-50):** Traditional RSI (0-100 range) difficult to compare with slope. This indicator uses centered RSI = (RSI - 50), creating -50 to +50 range zero-centered on same scale as normalized slope. Enables direct visual and mathematical comparison between RSI and slope momentum, enabling Slope-RSI exhaustion detection and RSI-Slope Oscillator signals.
**Component Integration:** Five signal types target different market conditions. NTZ Cross and Acceleration target trend-following when momentum strong. RSI Divergence and Slope-RSI Divergence target reversals when price/momentum diverge. RSI-Slope Oscillator targets momentum alignment when RSI and slope converge. Multi-method approach provides signals across trending, reversing, and ranging markets.
### 📊 Technical Calculations
**Slope Normalization:** maDF = longMA - longMA , normalized: maDf = 100 * maDF / (highest(maDF, 500) - lowest(maDF, 500)), ranges -100 to +100.
**Acceleration Detection:** maAcce = abs(maDf - maDf ) * smoothBars * 2, normalized: maAcc = 50 * maAcce / highest(maAcce, 200). Values above threshold (35 display, 40 signals) indicate sudden momentum shifts. Visualized as colored circles: cyan (bullish), red (bearish).
**RSI Calculation:** rsi = sma(rsi(source, length), smoothing), centered: cRsi = rsi - 50 (ranges -50 to +50). Smoothed using SMA (default 3 bars) to reduce noise.
**RSI Divergence:** Uses pivot high/low detection on smoothed RSI. Pivot lookback = 16 - sensitivityInput (inverse: sensitivity 6 = 10-bar lookback, sensitivity 10 = 6-bar lookback). Compares price pivots (actual high/low including wicks) against RSI pivots. Bullish: priceLowerLow AND rsiHigherLow. Bearish: priceHigherHigh AND rsiLowerHigh. Stores multiple previous pivots (default 8 max) for comparison.
**Slope-RSI Exhaustion:** Compares normalized slope against centered RSI on same scale. Bearish: slope accelerating up (delta > 0, slope > NTZ) BUT RSI declining (cRsi < cRsi AND cRsi < cRsi ). Bullish: slope accelerating down (delta < 0, slope < -NTZ) BUT RSI rising. Gap threshold (default 10.0 points) filters noise. Visualized with dashed lines and gap labels.
**RSI-Slope Oscillator:** State machine tracks cross events (rsiSlopeCrossUp = cRsi > maDf AND cRsi <= maDf ), waits for confirmation: both RSI and slope heading same direction. Long: RSI crosses above slope AND both heading UP. Short: RSI crosses below slope AND both heading DOWN. Useful for range-bound markets.
**Stretch Filter:** maPercentDiff = (longMA - shortMA) / shortMA * 100. Blocks long signals if longMA > shortMA by threshold (overextended up). Blocks short signals if shortMA > longMA by threshold (overextended down). Default 0.45% prevents signals when MAs too far apart.
**Delta Calculation:** Measures change in normalized slope between bars. Timeframe mode: compares current confirmed slope with previous confirmed (more reliable, slight delay). Standard mode: compares current with previous bar (faster, may use unconfirmed). Minimum threshold (default 3.4) filters weak momentum changes.
**Trailing Stop (Blackflag FTS Swingarm):** Uses Wilder's MA of true range. Modified mode: trueRange = max(HiLo, HRef, LRef) with enhanced gap handling. Unmodified: standard true range. Trailing stop calculated based on ATR factor and price trend direction. Separate settings for divergence signals (wider stops, grace periods).
### 🚀 Signal Types and Conditions
**1. NTZ Cross Signals:** Long: Slope crosses above +NTZ (default +8) AND positive delta ≥ threshold (default 3.4) AND stretch filter allows AND optional trend confirmation (short MA > long MA). Short: Slope crosses below -NTZ AND negative delta ≥ threshold AND filters allow. Exit: Slope re-enters NTZ OR reverses direction for confirmation bars OR trailing stop.
**2. Acceleration Signals:** Long: Acceleration ≥ threshold (default 40) AND slope above NTZ AND positive delta sufficient AND filters allow. Short: Acceleration ≥ threshold AND slope below -NTZ AND negative delta sufficient AND filters allow. Visual: Colored circles (cyan bullish, red bearish). Works independently to catch sudden momentum bursts.
**3. RSI Divergence Signals:** Bullish: Price lower low while smoothed RSI higher low, detected via pivot comparison (default up to 8 pivots). Bearish: Price higher high while RSI lower high. Optional Slope-RSI confirmation. Visual: Purple lines (bearish), lime lines (bullish). Exit: Divergence-specific trailing stop (wider ATR, grace period).
**4. Slope-RSI Divergence Signals:** Bullish: Slope accelerating down (negative delta, slope < -NTZ) BUT RSI rising over lookback AND gap exceeds threshold (default 10.0 points). Bearish: Slope accelerating up (positive delta, slope > NTZ) BUT RSI declining AND gap exceeds threshold. Visual: Orange triangles (bullish exhaustion), yellow triangles (bearish exhaustion) with dashed lines. Exit: Divergence-specific trailing stop.
**5. RSI-Slope Oscillator Signals:** Long: RSI crosses above slope AND both heading upward. Short: RSI crosses below slope AND both heading downward. State machine tracks cross then confirms direction. Exit: Opposite oscillator condition (allows reversal) OR trailing stop after grace period.
