RocketRSI

Ehlers DSP oscillator rsi ehlers dsp fisher momentum

Highly responsive RSI variant using SuperSmoother and Fisher Transform.

Usage

Use for rapid cycle identification and reversal detection. The Fisher Transform converts the RSI distribution into a Gaussian-like distribution with sharp peaks at reversals.

Background

RocketRSI improves upon standard RSI by first smoothing the momentum with a SuperSmoother filter to eliminate high-frequency noise. The resulting RSI is then passed through a Fisher Transform to create clear, actionable signals at cyclical turning points.

Parameters

  • rsi_length (default: 8): RSI calculation period
  • smooth_length (default: 10): SuperSmoother filter period

Formula

[ Mom = Price - Price_{t-(L-1)} ] [ Filt = \text{SuperSmoother}(Mom, SL) ] [ MyRSI = \frac{\sum \max(0, \Delta Filt) - \sum \max(0, -\Delta Filt)}{\sum |\Delta Filt|} ] [ RocketRSI = 0.5 \cdot \ln\left(\frac{1 + MyRSI}{1 - MyRSI}\right) ]
