TrueStrengthIndex

Description

The True Strength Index study is a variation of the Relative Strength Index (RSI). Unlike the RSI, this study uses double smoothing: a short average of a longer one. This type of smoothing is applied to both one-bar momentum of the close price and its absolute value. The final result is equal to percent ratio between the two values.

Buy and Sell signals are indicated at crossovers of the primary plot with its average.
